Personally I feel more connected to the Vancouver BC/ Seattle/ Portland corridor than with the rest of the US, so I feel more comfortable saying I’m a Cascadian than an American.
I am German, but I feel foremost European
I identify with Norwegian and western european liberal values. I believe in free speech, democratic values, science, press freedom, human rights, unity, being compassionate, a strong welfare state, equality, womens rights, lgbtqia+ rights. I also have a sense of feeling that all europeans are my peers and that we are a collective. When Russia attacked Ukraine, it felt as if they in some way also attacked a close neighbour, a friend and our way of life.
Despite being cishet somehow it’d be LGBT-dominated and 80% about gaming like everywhere I find myself lol
I mean it! I keep finding myself in queer communities and I legitimately don’t know why lol
Because, while assholes can be found in all places, you have decided yo surround yourself with the interestingly weird.
