The utterly philistine "content goes here" must be one of the least inspiring phrases with which creative people are confronted.

That thing you call content is art, and exists because someone chose to make it. It's not an adjunct to your marketing and engagement plans.

So I will end with one last question. When corporate machines are more welcome in our pride parades than the community members that have been fighting with us from the beginning what does that say about pride?

Everyone is welcome at pride, but Kinksters belong at pride. HAPPY #PRIDE

Pride started as a riot. By trans women of color, leather men, drag queens, sex workers and every identity we still see today, even if we didn't have the words to identify with back then. If you're gatekeeping pride, you might be the one who shouldn't be there.
