Fuck, this June I haven't even seen Pride discourse. Not that I miss it, but... the usual focus from content creators I follow, the pride fan art and fics, the events, just.... file non found. Also, fuck Target so I haven't done my usual shopping of their pride collection. Haven't seen pride collections elsewhere, really. I haven't seen chalkings or yarn bombings. No sudden rainbow flags up in corporate owned stores or the cognitive dissonance of 'don't assume our employees pronouns!' signs in stores where those employees are aggressively mis-gendering me because friendly-style customer service tends to be very gendered. Not to mention the queer art and craft events where creators try to get my attention by going 'ma'am, ma'am, ma'am' and then get louder when I don't respond.

June's fucking annoying, but this quiet isn't good.
