LGBTQ+ Tik Toks because it’s pride month!!

Hi! I’m Andromeda (she/they) and thank you for watching! I hope you enjoy!

Hey all!! I’m now selling some merchandise to help raise money for my transition and I recently released the first edition of the queer resource so feel free to check those out! Links are included below.
First, let’s talk about the merch! I’m selling them through two different sites, both of which will be linked below. There are stickers, pins, and magnets which I’m selling through Redbubble - they’re available with several different LGBTQ+ flag options, although I know I haven’t covered them all so if you notice your flag missing feel free to comment it below and I’ll work on adding them in! And I’m selling shirts, sweaters, and hoodies through Teespring; they’re available with a couple different designs including the channel logo, but I’d be interested in expanding the flag options and designs, so if you have anything you’d like to see feel free to leave a comment below suggesting it!!
I mentioned that I’m saving money for my transition but that’s not the only thing the profits will go towards. My plan is for 80% of the profits to go towards saving for my transition, 10% towards funding the channel, and 10% to LGBTQ+ charities. I’ll leave a link to a google sheet below to show how your money is being divided for whatever product you may chose to get, as I want you all to have full transparency. I know the amount towards charities is low at the moment but I intend to increase that amount as I get closer to my goal for raising for my transition. I’m also going to be putting up a poll here each time there is a significant amount of money to donate and let you all choose from a few charities as well as suggest any you see fit!
I’m really excited about this! I was interested in ways I might be able to raise for my transition and bottom surgery through the channel, but I didn’t want to just ask people to donate as I’m aware of the influence that content creators can have and I don’t ever want that to be used to my advantage. I’m happy about this way as it allows me to give back to you all in the form of merch as well as to give back to the queer community as a whole by donating to charities and organizations. I hope that you enjoy this as well and if you have any questions or suggestions feel free to comment them below!

Now let’s talk about the queer resource!! I want to make sure to convey to you that it is in its very beginning stages of development; I have made significant progress on it but it is a time consuming process and between school, work, running this channel, and other responsibilities I don’t have much of that. The resource is a working document, I’ll be working it on my free time and adding and updating information and resources as it develops. I just want you all to be aware that any missing information and resources in the document right now is likely due to that. For instance, there is a section on queer terminology with definitions and resources and answers to certain questions, but I’ve only been able to go through A-terms and that section with 5 definitions took several hours. But, if I’m missing a definition from that or one of the resources I’ve included and checked over conveys a stereotype that I was unaware of or maybe there is information about those terms that does not appear in those resources and is important to show, feel free to let me know!
I want this document to be as accurate as possible and to not convey any kinds of stereotypes or misinformation so your feedback is always welcome. Thank you for your patience as I’ve worked on developing this and I hope you find this resource useful!

I’d like to keep this email for important messages and requests that need to reach me. Spam or unimportant messages will likely be ignored and blocked. I would just like a way for any messages of importance to reach me as I don’t quite have the time to look through all of the comments for them.

Go Fund Me for Transition:

I went to my first pride event ever, it was a smaller scale one in my town. It was amazing seeing people that are in the same group as me and hearing a lot of other people that accepted me! This is the first time being openly out to complete strangers and it was so validating! Happy pride from a bi demigirl! :D

That last TikTok is a great way to explain gender/being trans to people. Because yeah, sex and gender are different things, sex is what you're born as and gender is just a social construct we've made up by assigning certain characteristics to certain labels. "Your gender isn't real" is such a stupid statement because I know you're trying to hate me but you're right, neither of our genders are real, they're just concepts to sort people based on what society told has told us since we were in diapers.

Happy Pride everyone 🏳‍🌈🏳‍⚧
Almost 55 Years ago, people like us, lead by black trans women, started to fight back against the cops that threatened their lives and the lives of those they loved. I think especially now, as it gets harder again for trans people and other queer people in the us and some other countries, we should remember that the first pride, wasn't a peaceful parade, but a REVOLUTION !!!!
Have a gay day/night :)

You know it’s a good day when Gremlins United posts a new compilation

[Ghosty-Ville]

That end one made me joyful but also sad how much society is unwilling to believe in trans or demi or intersex or non binary

[unanimoustuba_]

Started watching this channel as a straight guy now I’m watching as an aroace girl 😅

Happy pride! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Happy pride❤🧡💛💚💙💜🏳️‍🌈!
I actually live in TN and got to go to a pride festival yesterday as well as march in the parade. While we were there we met one of the people who got the drag ban blocked and declared unconstitutional. And we've gotten the news that the block is at least semi permanent, I think they'd have to reword it to get it back and that may also get blocked but it might not be as bad as the original version was (the way they vaguely worded the originally posted a danger for all people who present differently enough from their birth gender). Luckily my city didn't seem to enforce it too much. I think they pretty much just said to make full on drag events 18+ but now it doesn't really matter.

thank you for putting the political updates in this, i hadn't gotten the news yet and seeing this really boosted my mental state, thank you!!!

Happy pride month from your fellow autistic bisexual black girl. Stay safe and stay healthy

[Charming_VODS]

HAPPY PRIDE MONTH!! that last video was so well explained <33

[randomhuman]

1:43 that hit me in the feels 😭 it’s so sad that young trans people have believe that they don’t get to grow old just for being trans. Every person has the right to get to see themselves grow old and grey, just to think that that is something trans people have to fear is heartbreaking 💔I hope that one day we can live in a world where seeing a trans person with grey hair isn’t so rare. To all the trans people in the comments, keep going, you are so loved and cherished, I am so proud of how far you have come and so excited to see where you will go ❤🏳‍⚧

Happy Pride Month from your local (digitally-so) bi demi dad \(^w^)/ <3
How has everyone's Pride Month's been going so far? :P :D

[snjert]

Thanks for making these compilations! I love them, they’re just the right mix between educational things and memes and happy news.

Happy pride month!!

[Jimyrt.]

Very happy every time one of these comes out.

[Medisapq]

I hope more people watch this video. Specially the last one, literal chef's kiss! Happy pride!!❤

[maurieborealis]

Happy pride month everybody! I came out to my best friend a couple of days ago!

[bleh.]

5:12 intentionally misgendering their student was causing significant harm to the student? Huh, strange. Who would've thought that being hateful towards a student would hurt them! The more you know!


(Obviously I'm being sarcastic)
