"The backyard where I told my best friend about my first queer crush."

"The first time I went to the fair with my partner and they won me a stuffed animal. I was a little nervous about potentially encountering a hate crime, but luckily everything went well and we had a lot of fun!"

Caption: A photo of my partner holding our stuffed pig, Speckles, right after they won the carnival game. I cropped them out for privacy reasons.
