Sober Queer Spaces Are Giving LGBTQ+ People a Place to Just Be

#LGBTQ+  #queercafés #Cuties #VirginiaBauman  #IrisBainumHoule  Across the country, queer cafés, mixers, and stores are providing options that aren't gay bars — and that's revolutionary. On any given day in Los Angeles, LGBTQ+ locals and tourists have few choices when it comes to finding other queer and trans people — at least, in a space that’s not a bar. The go-tos , especially for cisgender gay men of legal drinking age, are gay bars, largely found in the tony city of West Hollywood. But for everyone else who identifies as LGBTQ+, such spaces are less than ideal, and for youth and those who are sober or in recovery, they aren’t an option at all. That's one reason Virginia Bauman and her business partner Iris Bainum-Houle opened  Cuties , a queer-owned, operated, and focused café in East Hollywood. Open daily from mornings into late afternoons, with events often hosted in the evenings, Cuties is an accessible, alcohol-free spot for LGBTQ+ people to just...

Okay, What Exactly Is Borderline Personality Disorder?

#Health #MentalHealth #BorderlinePersonalityDisorder #BPD #Psychology  "It's not something I have, it's something I am."

In May,  Saturday Night Live 's Pete Davidson took to Instagram Stories to talk about his own experience with BPD—and how, contrary to what some of his critics think, those with borderline personality disorder can maintain successful relationships. "Just because someone has a  mental illness  does not mean they can’t be happy and in a relationship,” he wrote. “It also doesn’t mean that person makes the relationship toxic. I just think it’s f*cked up to  stigmatize people as crazy  and say that they are unable to do stuff that anyone can do. It’s not t...

JP Cooper - In The Silence | Mahogany Session (video)

 #InTheSilence #UnderGreySkies #MahoganySessions #JPCooper     I've been seeking silver linings, feeling incomplete Singing "oh oh I wish it didn't taste so bittersweet" So enamoured, stutter, stammered, oh my voice was broke Like a poor man stood before the queen I tripped over my tongue before I spoke And though I never said it with words There was love in the silence Even now after all of these years You're the light in my darkness Used to share that feeling, dreaming Gazing at the bedroom ceiling Oh oh now I'm lay here wishing you'd come home And though I never said it with words There was love in the silence Even now after all of these years You're the light in my darkness Darling please, listen close and you'll hear There's still love in the silence Even now after all these long years I feel love in the quiet And though I never said it with words There was love in the silence Even now after all of these years You're the light in my...
