The letters LGBTQ are just another way of saying that Love is Love.
Without Love, Nothing Else Matters
Why is it that people act the way they do? Why do certain types of people hate or dislike others just because they are in a different class of society? Why do people judge you because of the mistakes you have made or the person you choose to love? These are just some of the questions you might ask yourself when dealing with other people, I know I have. It is important to remember that not all people are as nice and goodhearted as they may seem and that not everyone will treat you as an equal. People are going to judge you, look and even talk down on you and people will hate you just because of who you are or the things that you believe.

Coming Out in a Straight World
Dear readers, I first have to make a disclaimer. If your parents are very religious and it is not safe to come out, do not come out. Many LGBT youth end up in the streets because their parents kick them out of their house. Coming out will only put you at higher risk for your life if you have parents who do not support the LGBT community.

Triple Threat: Being an LGBT+ Black Female (+ in a STEM Discipline). Top Story - August 2020.
In theatre, being a thriple threat means being able to sing, dance, and act. Although I did do theatre for a year in high school and have years of history earning gold stars on Just Dance, the only part of that criteria I meet is being able to act, and that's being generous to myself. For me, being a triple threat has nothing to do with my talents and more to do with my identity: Black, Lesbian, and Female.

It's All About Faith
There aren't many 90s kids that don't have a special place in their heart for Buffy The Vampire Slayer. It's fair to say that many an OG crush was founded from that show. Right now in 2020, people can still find new companions with the simple question, "Angel or Spike?" The correct answer often leading to a beautiful friendship. It's Spike by the way. That is the only acceptable answer. I mean Angel needed a soul to love, Spike was just a walking ball of passionate love whether he had one or not, but that's not really what I'm here to talk about.

Why Bisexuality is like Being a 'y' Among Other Vowels.
I am male and in my mid-twenties, and you could say that I have finally decided that it's okay to be a half-vowel. I'm additionally going to explain how the fundamentality of 'y's vowel-like versatility is the extended bisexual metaphor, we 'y's have all been waiting for.

Transition Art. . Second Place in For You Challenge.
As 2020s impending madness creeped upon us, I decided to download TikTok. I primarily made it to browse political content. My For You page flooded with feminism, Black Lives Matter and, of course, the odd cat video. I found myself addicted to the content, ever swiping. Video after video after... you guessed it! Video. However, one day it struck, as my girlfriend was making us dinner, to make a TikTok. This TikTok would be made in honour of our love, it would be made to see her smile at me as she came back with food for us to share and it would take me all of five minutes to edit.

The 24/7 Diner
Prelogue: It was dark. 8:30pm to be exact. My Uber pulled up to a 24/7 diner. Next to it was a black & blue Motel that i planned on staying in for the weekend. 2 stories where was a big chimney in the front office that covered both floors. The doors where painted blue and the rest of the motel was black on the outside. I came in with my boyfriend of 5 months. Red stripped t-shirt with blue stars on it & solid blue shorts is what he wore. I had on a black shirt with the 7 millennium items from the yugioh anime that i watched so much. We was going to attend an anime convention for the weekend. We waited last minute to find a hotel & this was the only place that had a room.

My Experiences as a Transman
I am transgender. I'm a transman to be exact. There are so many examples of perfectly transitioned guys that pass or look and seem like a cisgender man. Sadly, that isn't the case for every trans guy out there. In fact, I know plenty that don't 'pass'. And it can be a whole different experience for those guys.
