thank you for being here.
this is a space for queer joy.
this is a space for trans power.
this is a space for protection, preservation, acceptance.
this space is here for you. stay as long as you like. share with those you love. continue to shine. your presence brings such joy and power.
and remember, in the words of Dan Savage: “During the darkest days of the AIDS crisis, we buried our friends in the morning, we protested in the afternoon, and we danced all night. The dance kept us in the fight because it was the dance we were fighting for.”
keep dancing! keep fighting!
together we can make this place better.
