Pride is one of the seven deadly sins.

So naturally I love it.

I used to go to the Pride parade and festival in San Francisco every year after high school. I only stopped due to scheduling and money. Easy to get there with just some gas money; but I hate not being able to buy anything from the vendors.

We already have "trans pride" and "gender envy", what about trans sloth?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Trans sloth is where you procrastinate on all the tasks that go into "fully" transitioning.

Like this one company that requires me to submit some legal paperwork before they let me update my name on their dinky little web portal. I could, but... Ehhhh... Do I really care that much right now...?

Or that massive pile of boy-clothes I had in the corner of my room for months because I kept putting off donating them.

i still don't even have a Blahaj. i would much rather cuddle with a person though.

Fair 'nuff! Grab your favorite person and fall asleep on the couch watching movies. Sloth is an excellent sin to choose, I'd give you a brochure but I didn't feel like making one.
