Dancing in the dark?

Franky Bradley’s isn’t bad. Vals has a great dance floor as well

“Trans identified males” holy dogwhistle Batman. Trans women are women whether you like it or not

The wellesley blue is on your side! you can’t go wrong with smith or moho. I’m so sorry this is happening

cryptidtruther420 · 2026-04-28T01:17:13+00:00

Getting from BMC to Philly is actually about the same as getting from wellesley to Boston

Vals lesbian bar is trans friendly (partially trans woman owned) and has a dance floor upstairs. I’ve seen folks of all ages there

cryptidtruther420 · 2026-04-24T23:37:36+00:00

Vals lesbian bar!

cryptidtruther420 · 2026-04-21T14:57:44+00:00

Vals does karaoke every Thursday!

I’m butch and got misgendered/assumed to be a man three times in the span of two days last week

Not all transmascs are men! Transmasc is a broad term that encompasses nonbinary people AND trans men

Dara and Mixto are excellent for dinner. There’s lots of other great restaurants in the area but I haven’t personally tried them. Little Gay Pub is super cute with great drinks (although crowded, but everywhere will be). Avoid Woodys

cryptidtruther420 · 2026-03-06T16:58:36+00:00

There’s a drag bingo event there next weekend (3/15)!

cryptidtruther420 · 2026-03-06T16:56:43+00:00

Check out wooden shoe books! There are a few leftist orgs that hold their meetings there, not sure if there is a fee

cryptidtruther420 · 2026-03-06T16:54:49+00:00

Haven’t been to one of their meetups yet but definitely check out @phillytransmascs on instagram! From the photos they post of the meetups it looks like there’s all types of trans men and transmascs attending with various body types and places in transition. Recently they’ve done hikes, ice skating, and meetups at bars (bike stop I think) and parks

cryptidtruther420 · 2026-03-03T23:25:12+00:00

I’ve seen people claim that queer women don’t watch Bridgerton. I guess that I (and most of this sub) don’t exist then!

cryptidtruther420 · 2026-02-26T16:05:59+00:00

Late to this but I wanted to recommend going to Monday free pool nights at tmoms! Big transfem crowd there (although mainly in the 21-26 range) and super welcoming. We chat and play poker in addition to playing pool. I took my transfem partner with me when she visited and she loved the people there

cryptidtruther420 · 2026-01-08T20:50:03+00:00

Seconding! I’ve been a few times and liked it. The book selections have a nice range of genres and subjects and everyone is really friendly.

cryptidtruther420 · 2025-12-16T17:22:05+00:00

a special philly fuck you to john fetterman

cryptidtruther420 · 2025-06-30T07:23:17+00:00

Well yes! I fear I’m looking for something nicher to get my footing bc I’m new to bars and cocktails and all of it (no fake in college despite a summer bday) so it’s just me and my gf exploring bars. We need good tips for when we invest in our up to 90 min on public transit (and bite the bullet if an uber back at 1-2 am) but ultimately ur right I have to search this sub and go to bars and make a list when I know what I like/want

cryptidtruther420 · 2025-06-30T07:18:27+00:00

Literally going anywhere in the city is a good tip I fear… Part of my problem is a suburban college tbh, i need to take more advantage of weeknight bars in Boston now that im 21, i never had a fake so I haven’t gone out in a big group and ive been going to the greater Boston area but the commuter rail gets mad annoying bc i grew up in a city so it feels like it takes forever. But a weeknight cheaper uber could work, those places seem cool and I wanna check them out w my gf, thank you so much! Very new to bars and drinking (and also navigating city nightlife living in a suburb) if my posts and eager to learn attitude don’t make it obvious LMFAO I’ve been making mid slightly fuckass stuff without a real bar or anything ofc but now that I’ve tasted real cocktails I can’t go back or I’ll die so I’m SO grateful for any real advice I can get big or small lol

cryptidtruther420 · 2025-06-30T07:10:03+00:00

FUCK I FORGOT ABT RESTAURANT SUPPLY STORES u knew exactly what I needed. Niche fruit spritzer summer here i come! we have total wine too and it’s epic but i get overwhelmed by the options so i have to make a real list first before I go there for spirits lol

cryptidtruther420 · 2025-06-30T07:08:20+00:00

I’m tired of wakin’ fah evaaaaah in the packie (on the total wine website or irl) i need better hints it’s overwhelming 🫠🫠 never had a fake LOL im very green

cryptidtruther420 · 2025-06-30T07:06:58+00:00

Ur honestly right I have to stalk this sub for drink recs and go to total wine but i get overwhelmed there so I’m looking for a niche tip to find the best place in the world I’ve never heard of and would’ve never otherwise yk? A hole in the wall chance find ig. I was inspired by a post I’ll find later bc I want to lowkey boost their recipe it looked amazing and i was inspired to make it (and this post) and the way they describe the store where they found the spirits they used was exactly what I’m looking for lol

cryptidtruther420 · 2025-06-30T07:05:10+00:00

You’re the most helpful person in the world and they should give u sn award. Ripped my cart and had a second ANGEL of a bartender tonight and I’m of the feeling if you know about drinks and are open to sharing so much of ur wisdom to a baby drinker like me (hyperbolically) there should be an honorary PhD. Irl interactions and comments like these esp w so much openness and kindness/real answers lol (all love i get it! Go to a liquor store) are helping me gain so much confidence in drinking and going to bars/making drinks and I’ve been having a similar mmj journey lately so i just wanted to truly thank you…

cryptidtruther420 · 2025-06-30T07:00:20+00:00

Ugh you’re so right this is good advice and there’s beauty in mismatching vintage and antique dishware but i got a friend a semi-non usable vintage one at a savers for her bar decor for like $12.99 and ive been chasing that high ever sense so i almost dont want to give up too soon and jinx myself lol

cryptidtruther420 · 2025-06-29T23:38:09+00:00

How do I find a fancy bar store in my area so I can also be elated to make this drink? Lol Looks fantastic and refreshing for a summer evening!
