Mango colored background with three nests that each have a single forget-me-not flower. The first nest has a hiding barn owl named Cupcake with text that says, "Whether or not you're "out"..." The second text has this pansexual colored (pink, yellow, and cyan) owl flying above the nest happy. The white text says, "You are still you". The third nest has Cupcake happy sitting. White text says, "This goes for being neurodivergent too." In rainbow text reads, "Happy Coming Out Day". Below is a rainbow infinity sign logo with a black and brown eye in each of the two centers. Under the eyes in pastel brown text reads "Actually" and "Owltistic".

You're valid whether you're public or not. 💖

As it’s National #comingoutday I would like to offer this:

1) you don’t have to come out to family first

2) think of the person who’s given signs they’d be most accepting in your life to talk to

3) take your time. It can be small steps, not a bungee jump

Happy #ComingOutDay …!

I grew up in the socially repressive 80s; the only “gays” were British rock stars or perverts. I didn’t come out to myself until I was almost 30, and to my family a few years later. I still regret years of my lost youth.

My dream is for kids to not go thru that anymore. ✊🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Went to Young's Dairy in the Dayton, OH area since we are here for the #OhioRenfaire #OhioRenaissanceFaire

It is #comingoutday
About 6 years ago I came out as non-binary and pansexual, queer in a word

No matter where you are on your journey, its ok to not know all the answers and its ok to have questions

Thank you!

This is what it looks like when your community stands up.

A perspective of a crowd that is at least 150 that is protesting ICE.

People are SHOWING OUT for today’s Protect Rogers Park ICE protest at Clark and Lunt!

There are a lot of great resources here:
- sign making
- school watch group chats
- ICE Watch newsletters
- KYR posters
- and more!

Drop by before 3!!

On National Coming Out Day, know that I will always be an ally to you — no matter where you are on your journey.

I know that times may be scary, but you are seen, safe, supported, and loved here in Illinois.

Tomorrow I am going to the Ohio Renaissance Festival

Its been a fee years since I went and Im looking forward to it

People really seem to love when I repost this one lol.

It’s simple.

When authoritarianism comes … RESIST!

Because they gave trump a jet

I thought it was gunna be an attack on gays

And it turned out worse

School performance, graduation rates, and proficiency are all making strides in Illinois.

We know that here we can’t abandon the pursuit of academic excellence.

“I’m worried about my community… I’m out here in a frog costume to show how ridiculous the notion that we’re violent terrorists is, and showcase how that narrative is wrong…”

Serious Q: is it too late to give this dude the Nobel Peace Prize? 🐸 🏆

No, fuck that

I mean, I knew #donaldtrump was never in charge

A person who cant make a casino successful isnt "leading" our country

Oops!

Reporting live from Chicago, there’s no “hellscape” I’d rather be in.
