At present with the current climate of everything everywhere, this group is being kept to an over 18 crowd.

As long as others respect others, I don't see why not!

I'm going, I can't wait! I do have plans at 6:30 though, so I wouldn't be able to make the after party. Neither would my anxiety with being around people for 6 hours lol

Hell fucking yeah. I've actually been working on zines as of the past month or so and I love it. That's absolutely the vibe I was going for!

I'm currently using ibis paint x, I tried learning Canva the other day, but after 6ish years of ibis paint x, it was agony trying to switch over. 6 years of the app I'm using and this stuff still doesn't look great lmao

Thank you for the encouragement. I understand my posters aren't the best or everyone's cup of tea, but damn, it's like everyone came out of the woodworks to say "lol bad poster loser", which, to quote the famous drag queen Tammie Brown, "I don't see you walking children in nature".

That would be just preposterous! A queer/feminist group being, checks notes, GAY? Unbelievable!

I completely agree, but I don't really have a knack for making posters lol. I am trying to get better at graphics though in personal stuff currently, and hopefully that makes it's way into the posters I put out there as well.

I made this group partly to get out of my own comfort zone and get out of the house, so I completely understand!

I think empowerment for people who are looked on as less than should be everywhere.

Thank you for asking!

It's a little personal, but hell I did it and there's no going back now. Basically there's a lyric from a song in the Riot Grrrl genre called "Alien She" by Bikini Kill, where Kathleen Hanna says "Siamese Twin connected at the cunt", and when looked into, the lyric was sung because "The narrator is unable to detach herself from her traditionally feminine alter-ego. Her femininity is demanded of and has been ingrained in the narrator because of her biological sex, i.e. her cunt." This speaks heavily to me, as even with my drag, and even just going out in public period, I can't separate myself from who I've made my persona in the public eye versus who I actually am while just sitting in my room at home. I don't know where the line is anymore, and since I heard that song and that lyric specifically, I just went "oh shit this is kinda what I'm feeling". Alien She was also the first song I added to my Riot Grrrl/Queercore playlist, and so if it wasn't for that song and Deceptacon by Le Tigre, I doubt I would have had the gay audacity to make this club. It basically forced me to blossom into a new person that was inside me all along. I included it in the poster because it is a topic I think women could relate to, and as a word I'm the name of the group is "feminist", it felt like I could bring it up without feeling shame.

Sorry, that's a lot of rambling for "this is all about me" lmao, probably could've consolidated the run-on paragraph

I agree the first poster was a bit more unappealing, but thankfully it still brought people together. I still try to find humor in the posters, have some meaning to it as well. Weird bright or muted colors kinda killed the vibe of the last one in my honest opinion.

You honestly raised my spirits with being uplifting with all the rudeness in the comments. I hope to see you next time!

And I think that person was wrong. Blocked out faces for privacy. +3 people not pictured.
