A quotation from Robert Louis Stevenson
Falling in love is the one illogical adventure, the one thing of which we are tempted to think as supernatural, in our trite and reasonable world. The effect is out of all proportion with the cause. Two persons, neither of them, it may be, very amiable or very beautiful, meet, speak a little, and look a little into each other’s eyes. That has been done a dozen or so of times in the experience of either with no great result. But on this occasion all is different. They fall at once into that state in which another person becomes to us the very gist and centrepoint of God’s creation, and demolishes our laborious theories with a smile; in which our ideas are so bound up with the one master-thought that even the trivial cares of our own person become so many acts of devotion, and the love of life itself is translated into a wish to remain in the same world with so precious and desirable a fellow-creature.
Robert Louis Stevenson (1850-1894) Scottish essayist, novelist, poet

CW: re: Thread, kink, bisexuality, self-acceptance, love, personal growth
I've realized (and what a lot of you all on this site maybe tried to tell me or hoped that I would come to in my own time) that #queerness encompasses so much more than just who I may or may not have slept with. That can be part of it! But it's a fully lived experience. It's more expansive than that. A straight person would not have gone through the inner struggles that I have, whether that was teenage me feeling a confusing mix of #elation and #shame around certain young women friends that I can now identify as #desire and #infatuation or adult me wrestling with certain questions or who I am and who I could be or could have been. Maybe these experiences aren't the idealized images of queerness we see in the media, but they are my experience of my own #queer and #bisexual identity. They are part of the queer experience because I am queer. They are part of the bi experience because I am bi.

It's time for the song of the day! Today is a creepily romantic song by Aqualung. You probably know it, it's strange and beautiful. One of those songs that scratches my brain tentacles. What do you think?

CW: Random queer thoughts related to "do I want to be her or do I want to date her?"
I'm revisiting something I wrote about a year ago and feel compelled to share this excerpt from it:
"I thought I wanted to be you, so much so that on dates with men, I started imitating your mannerisms--your ways of speaking and flirting. I have been you so much that I have forgotten what parts of me are you and what parts of me are me. Now, only a decade later, can I say that I wanted to be you because I couldn't have you, so being you was the next best thing. But perhaps I could love myself more if I recognize that I didn't want to be you so much as I wanted to love you."
