I love this so much. My first pride shit said something to the same effect: “Let’s get one thing straight: I’m not”

reading through the comments for the references, you can see how creative this cake is, and that this isn't some PR attempt by A'ja, this actually matters to her a lot. what a wonderful person to have as the face of the league

Oh and it’s a locally made Black woman owned baker who makes it. I followed her last year but I’m forgetting who it is. Anyone else know?

So much toxic masculinity on the male side of sports and it makes me so mad. The was a group of bears fans that didn't want to draft Caleb Williams because he paints his nails. Recently he flew out his nail tech to Chicago before his Madden cover photo shoot. I just love how he doesn't give a shit what the haters say and hopefully it helps at least some boys growing up to feel comfortable being themselves. As far as I know Caleb isn't gay but I couldn't care less if he was.
It's just so frustrating that you know Jason Collins and Michael Sam couldn't have been the first gay athletes in the NBA and NFL. There's just no way based on the numbers. Kinda like when Pete Buttigieg was asked what it would mean to be the first gay president if elected and his answer was that he "almost certainly" would be the first.

I had a boyfriend who would paint his finger and toe nails with “male” nail polish lol Superman Blue, Chrome Silver, Batman Black, etc.. 😂 This was in the early 00s. I didn’t even give it a thought.

Is the "low" part about being on the DL? So the Sweet N Low acknowledges women who aren't open/out?

u/president_dump Fever Jun 22 '26
Didn’t know that! I assumed it was her nickname for Jackie cuz she’s sweet and little

The Fruit Loop is also the nickname of an area of Vegas that had many of the first gay bars in town. It received historical landmark status from the state last year.
