    When someone says retro game console I think of NES. Maybe SNES. Now that you mention it I can see N64. But no way Gamecube seems retro let alone Wii. They were on discs! Lol

    Been coming to terms that I became old lately lol. Weird how it sneaks up on you. You are young, get busy a couple years pass and ok you are a young adult. Then time seems to speed up and before you know it you are exhausted and old living in what was recently the way off future.

    Then I think there are people more than twice my age, even some 3 times. How in the world are people still functioning at all at that age? How are people president of the United States in their 80’s? I just rolled over 3 days ago and hurt my shoulder.

    You’re right, it sucks being told how you can and can’t identify. The purpose of the post seems to be to motivate allies to take more action to help. But I agree that the phrasing is problematic.

    Just keep being supportive of LGBT people in real life and ignore random memes online. I consider wearing a pin as an action that qualifies as an ally. It’s looking like LGBT people might need more help than just a pin with the way governments are heading.

    Also if you are dealing with people online, consider that they may be bots or trolls who may not even be LGBT purposely attempting to cause division.
