We would love to see your ideas and styles! Rainbow rulez!

Hello fleeties! Let's glitterize this years pride day celebration with rainbow colored costumes! The basic idea is to become a rainbow yourself - from head to toes. We think it is great when every individual costume is a little different, let's show pride and diversity simultaneously! Just try around which costumes you like that allow you to use a lot of colours, especially in the Upper Part because it needs to take two or three colors. Here's a list with tips and tricks if you wanna join in the fun and parade with your own rainbow costume!

Costume Slot	Color	Description
Head	PINK	optional, easily done with hair, flowers or sunglasses
Upper 1	RED	shoulders, pads and collars could be used
Upper2	ORANGE	optional, hard to do with the available color choices
Upper3	YELLOW	around the belly
Belt	GREEN	use a light/strong color for it's hard to see
Lower	BLUE	females can boost the green with a green skirt and blue leggings
Feet	VIOLET	Boot colors are very restricted, use the lightest violet

See you at the dancefloor in Risa and somewhere over the rainbows!

Ban the AR-15 from Civilian Ownership

If you guys can, sign this. :)

For any Europeans who obv can't sign, I'd suggest contacting your MEP about the post-Paris gun control law currently going through the European Parliament. There is a lot of opposition from the hunting lobby that could derail it but hopefully it will outlaw automatic and semi-automatic weapons as well as tighten tracking and decomissioning.

Depressingly, it seems the assassination of our MP yesterday was by a "homemade" gun. This both is a disturbing problem and an argument for the gun lobby to use along the "it won't work" lines.

I'm living in the Netherlands and was able to sign it.

Hello and welcome back to STO. :)

Greetings and welcome to Stonewall Fleet! B)

Thval, you are totally right. I couldn't had said it better. I'm still shocked about the responses, the left-outs in the media and news, and the general ignorance. Here in germany its most of the time a "nightclub", nothing more. You were also right about my mother, she uses comments like the one you citated quite often in the last time. The one from her that shocked me most was her calling the raping of me done by my own cousin in my childhood being a "seduction".

I don't like the feeling of being sad and angry at the same time. My life is full of catastrophies, and it is getting worse. As long as I am alive I keep on fighting as I always do, no matter what will happen. Am I afraid or anxious? Yes for sure. Does that cut me down in any way? Definitely no.

Also I conclude with your thoughts about equality. And yes, our laws are fundamental. We have no real equality concerning race, gender, sex, age, heritage, origin or even wealth. There has much to be done by us all, to change our society into a one that is able to thrive without harming anything or being. At least there are jobs pending, orders we have to fullfill if we want to save our planet, for example. Jobs that could only be done if we do it all. Honestly, I have no hope for that, but hey, what else should I do?

Right now I am still a little catatonic. But the thoughts are wild. I renamed one of my ships. I was so touched by one of the destinies I was confronted with while understanding what has happened. The first male gay couple that was married in germany were employees in my company. I was witness of the whole planning and marriage, it was a historical moment, not only for me. I had to rename my beloved Vulcan Science Cruiser which had the name "Ko-ka-ashausu" (vulcan for lesbian). It now bears the name "GuerreroLeinonen", in rememberance of the two friends of Aikune who could't even enjoy their marriage.

My love has other ways to cope: all our toons now have rainbow coloured costumes. I love the idea of showing colour as sign of pride. If you have a uniform slot left please join this parade. Lets form the biggest rainbow the galaxy has encounterd so far! Love to you all and glad you are you and you are here.

A friend ofa friend started this, thank you for sharing it.

For the past few months I sort of drifted from the community. I didn't go to last year's pride for no real reason. I suppose I always felt slightly apart as, as a bisexual man, I had more biphobia from the gay community than homophobia from straights (though that is in part due to the "invisibility" of it) and I always felt somewhat on the sidelines - despite volunteering for LGBT charities for most of my life.

I've never been taken aback by the news like what happened with Orlando. It wasn't just the initial shock, but what happened after. The denial and the half-statements from the people and leaders who stoked this hatred to begin with. They demonise and attack us through words and laws then give hollow condemnation of those who act on their oratory. Journalists trying to skirt the fact that this is a homophobic attack that is simply the logical extension of the regular bullying, harassment, beating and murder of us that happens every day, egged on by ignorant, populist and xenophobic talk of the very people who stood up and used this to point the finger of blame at a religion or make out this is a fringe lunatic. No. It is all connected. It is connected to you. The journalist, the politician, the wanker in the pub who shouts faggot at the tv when someone slightly camp is on. Even my mother who complains about how "not ever character has to be gay" when she sees a gay person on tv once in a blue moon - despite the fact I'm sitting right there. Bless her, she's rural.

And then came the fact it was, in a manner, one of our own. Should have guessed. How many of the great homophobes of history have been our own, corrupted by a society into hating themselves so they lash out at the rest of us. That is what I find most horrific about the society we're in. It doesn't even have to attack us directly. It just points our own against us and wait for the blood to flow. Which they don't want anywhere near them of course because we're dirty.

Some people think that marriage is the last step to equality. No. Laws are the first step. We have a cultural war to wage to society at large and to our own sisters and brothers brainwashed by hatred. If you ever think we don't need pride anymore because we're "equal", think back to Orlando. We have to lead by our rather fabulous example and raise the flag high. Because the last few years, and history as a whole, have shown we can't take our freedom for granted. The world is getting more dangerous, but we are here to stay.


Sorry for the rant... thanks to everyone who keeps the flag flying while some of us doubt.

This is awesome this will be on the end of day 2 after Cards Against Humanity!

I'll be in the middle of three-dimensional real-life Pride at that point, but good to know about other LGBTQ guilds!
