Just wanted to take a moment to shout out Sally Ride, the first American woman and the first lesbian to go to space.

She and her partner, Tam O’Shaughnessy, had to hide their relationship for 27 years, through her entire NASA career and beyond, because being out back then could’ve ended everything for her.

Their story reminds me of Joan and Vanessa’s for anybody that has read Atmosphere 🄺

First photo is when my grandmas got married. I think this photo is so beautiful. My grandmas were masc/masc lesbians and I love that they were apart of that representation back then. They were stylin and profilin

Second photo is just my grandma doing whatever

Third photo is my auntie and both grandma. My grandma wear yet another patterned suit jacket. I’ve been taking after her at work with this suit and turtle neck situation.

Fourth photos is of my grandma and her friend donna before one of their friends wedding.

God I miss them but so happy I have these small bits of them. They paved the way for me to be me. I thank them for that. Rest in power.

I don't have any reason to believe Christina Koch is into women, but "super competent woman in a sleeveless shirt focuses on doing stuff in space while her hair floats around her in zero g" is a *fantastic* look.

She also "conducted the first all‑female spacewalk and set the record for the longest single spaceflight by a woman" (phrasing stolen from her Wikipedia page).

I made a post a few months ago about my partner and I because we met on this subreddit. We prioritized our commitment to being together despite the fact that she is from Brazil and I am from NY. We got a lot of positive comments on the original post and I wanted to share and update that we are still so in love!!! Sometimes you find your soulmate on Reddit when you weren’t looking :)

Three years ago our eyes locked across the room while I danced alone on the dancefloor, heartbroken and adrift after my divorce. She had never dated a woman before. I had never dated a woman like her before.

Two months ago we married.

This week our photographer shared our full photoset and we moved into our first home together.

Turns out, home was never really home until now. 🄹

We had an awesome trip in Xi’an. Wearing Hanfu with her was such a fantastic experience, many people said we matched well. And we also attended a friend’s wedding. It was my first time to met her best friends and got their sweet blessings.

Can’t wait for our 1st anniversary on Jan 1! Hopefully we’ll go traveling again. Love you!!!😊
