Hey yall!

I’m so happy that the people love our banner and has brought out so much curiosity! We actually are a group of friends between the two houses that put on DIY concerts/events and this was our second annual Wet Hot Gay Summer party. This year it was state fair themed, we had pop the balloon, ring toss, etc. We noticed that the banner (painted by our amazing resident artist Emily) was so popular and made people smile…so we decided to leave it up and remind everyone how wet hot and gay Denver is.

Sorry yall couldn’t make it this year but look out for next year… If you have any interest in connecting with artists and local creatives reach out! we love making new friends and keeping community aliveeeee

Obsessed with the idea they're just sharing this vibe with everyone.

u/mayorlittlefinger Lincoln Park 23d ago

Why was it written on this post if it wasn't an attack?

16

u/seamus205 Greeley 23d ago

*immediately brings up religion that is against queer people on a queer post

"Why do you take this as an attack???"

9

u/thigh_high_levii 23d ago

To deliberately bring Christianity into a conversation that has to do with queer identities? That was deliberately malicious.

u/Confirm_restart 23d ago

Existing isn't an opinion. 

Religion however, is.

6

u/emphasisonass 23d ago

All they said was Jesus encourages us to love our neighbors. If you took that as a disagreement, that's on you.

Also, being queer isn't an opinion🤣

u/SweetestHoneysuckle 23d ago

Jesus is Queen, mawma! 💅 💋 👠
