Hi guys lesbian who’s looking to get a more short masc shag haircut (like picture). Looking for someone who doesn’t me look like a Karen. I’ve been reading about Talking Headz and Transfiguration. Can anyone recommend a stylist at either or another place to go to? Should I just go to a barber ? Thanks !!!
Comment if you have any questions, I'll be there! 🙏💛
Hello! I am 26, non-binary (any pronouns) looking for a social group to join. I am not big on the drinking/clubbing scene and prefer a more chill and/or nerdy environment.
It has been a few years since I played D&D, but I’d like to get back into it; I’m also interested in other TTRPG games.
I also play video games: Pokémon, Sonic, rpgs, rune factory, story of seasons, farming games, creature raising games, animals sims (WolfQuest), etc.
I am also pretty artsy and love doing creative stuff! I mostly create digital art, but I’m open to trying any medium.
I work in the animal care field and am very passionate about nature. I enjoy hiking, and, though I mostly only know invasive plants, I like to try to identify new plants and look at cool little insects and spiders. I do know about the Queer Birding group and I am interested!
If you know any social groups that would fit my vibe please let me know!
I moved back to Philly after college and most of my friends live pretty far, so I’d like to make more local friends :)
Hey queers!
I'm a recently out lesbian (queer identity until last year), divorced from a man (lol) and am moving to Philly as soon as the condo sells.
I'm in CT now and am craving that walkable city life again.
I'm a 38 yr old artist, into girly horror and alt comedy, reading and videogames.
A friend recommended Point Breeze where she lives, but I'm open to a lot.
Therapy fully changed my life and I'm so ready for a new start. I'm in my divorced diva eat slay love era and can't wait to celebrate with hosting hyper specific theme parties.
I've saved a few places but would love more recs & tips.
Avid thrifter and park visitor 🌲
Let's get weird ✨

Hi!
I’ve been involved in cat fostering and rescue for over 15 years so it’s okay, I appreciate the concern but I really don’t need advice about people adopting cats for dog bait or any of the other things that people comment on adoption posts. This is only the second time in those 15 years that I’ve been wiling to offer or facilitate private adoption, and I wouldn’t if it weren’t for the unique situation we’re in.
This is the story of Tiffany Lampshade Nomi Malone. 👗 Named as such because I found and trapped her on my way home from the stained glass studio, and because Showgirls, duh. She was injured, sick and stinky, but I was able to contact a friend of mine who works for PAWS and get her a spay and medical appointment the next morning. I agreed to pay out of pocket for all her care and foster her at my house to keep spaces at their shelters open for other cats. PAWS would then complete the adoption for an ex-friend of mine who wanted to adopt TLNM after I cleared her medically, bathed her, monitored and socialized her for a few months.
UNFORTUNATELY, I unintentionally became her long term foster after the person who wanted to adopt her, the whole reason I agreed to foster and socialize her in the first place, ghosted the situation entirely.
Further complicating matters, I was in a hit-and-run car crash that’s left me currently unable to drive her to any adoption center or vet appointments. I’ve also since lost contact with the person at PAWS who was my connect to the foster system, and suddenly, I find myself needing to trap and quarantine a new crop of female teenage kittens in my back yard who need to be TNR’d as they’re coming into heat (KITTEN SEASON IS UPON US). Taking her to ACCT sounds like a terrible idea, because she’s so small and sensitive and would be shy in a shelter. SO PLEASE SPARE ME any “Well ackshually” energy.
THE GOOD NEWS IS: TLNM has truly blossomed - with lots of love and encouragement, she’s gone from a terrified tiny kitty to a chatty lil diva. She’s been socialized with my (permanent resident) special needs rescue cats, my rescue dog, and lots of people of all genders and various ages. A cute and quiet little shadow who loves being near you - she’s light and dainty on her feet and, in defiance of her species, has never made a single mess, gotten into anything she shouldn’t have, scratched any non-cat furniture or people, or knocked a single thing off of anything, ever. Your knick knack collection and vintage sofa are safe. 🌴🐚🪘 You might not even notice she’s around until she silently slinks up to cuddle on your shoulder. She gets along just fine with other cats and is extremely polite at meal time, patiently letting everyone else eat first before she slinks in to get hers. She sleeps in bed with me, the other cats, and my dog. If you have trouble sticking to a consistent bedtime, no worries: TLNM will remind you when it’s time to pack it in and get to bedtime snuggles. She also loves having zoomies with her toys and telling you all her opinions with her unique and dignified little “meow”s (I'm gonna try to post a video in the comments I can send via DM if it doesn't work). She can be quite the conversationalist - if she’s spilling the tea, she expects you to talk back! 🗣️ Excellent mouser if that’s something you need. Perfect with the litterbox. She would thrive best as an indoor cat, please. Even though she was born outside, she’s made it abundantly clear she has no interest in going back. Tiffany Lampshade Nomi Malone spent enough time as a baby on the streets, it’s time to live her comfy Versayce life. 💅🏼
So please!! Do any kind hearted queers out there have room in their heart for a 2(?) year old little lady with multi colored toe beans 🫘 and perfect manners?
Or if you're willing to take her and foster her for an organization?!
I can provide the paperwork from her original PAWS appointment with her spay and microchip information. She has no health issues, clean teeth, and is up to date on flea and tick meds.
Message me!
Please be prepared to send me 2 references who'd be willing to vouch that you're not a booger and the name of the vet you can take her to for checkups.
Yes you can share this!
TY!
Photos are the journey from before to now :)
I'd love to go tonight, but I've never been to a lesbian bar yet. And got no ride to take me other than myself. Like can you just walk in? And anything I should know?
i moved to philly around year ago & still havent really made any friends. im extremelyyy introverted at first, so that obviously makes things a bit difficult, but im feeling extremely alone in the city & id like to change that (pls oh god pls) :)
im 27/F and im a lesbian! i love video games, movies, music, art… very generic but i promise i have a personality!!! id be down for anything at this point, but bars and drinking arent really my thing.
dm if u wanna maybe hang out some time!!
Hello, I'm an unofficial ambassador for the event and can answer almost any questions you have if you are curious. They have been giving me coupons to help spread the word so I think I have their approval lol
I'm a trans woman and I've been to each one so far and will be late for the first time tonight.
>I hope all of you that inquired got the answers you sought and made it out last night 🙏💛 Next Thursday Edition we're going to really need to Turn Up and prove that we deserve two nights a month, I've been informed.
The flyers are made! The word is OUT. And I can’t wait to meet you all. 🌸🌸
Tired of capitalism? Me too! Hate spending your money all. the. time??? Same!! Looking to get rid of perfectly cool shit for other people’s new shiny cool shit? Umm hello? Sign me up!
Hi! My name is Diavion & I love cool shit, and when it’s free it gives me a high, like no other & because we’re healing our kleptomaniac side— there must be other ways to go about fulfilling this desire for *cool things* at a cool price of free99.
Well that’s where FREE SHIT SWAP comes in. A community of eclectic humans that believe “if it’s cool, it’s not clutter” and “it’s not hoarding.. if your shit is cool” thinking.
May 31st, 2026 I will be hosting a FREE SHIT SWAP in West Philadelphia off of the block of 43rd and Spruce, but I need YOUR help.
I am on the search for the following items to make this event come into fruition:
⭐️YOU! To share, repost, upvote this flyer. I would love for you to share the flyer to the ROOFTOPS!
⭐️ Post swap donation places. In the event I’m left with more than anticipated are there direct links you’d know like women shelters, children shelters, places to take the items not claimed?
💖And HUGE thank you to all the creators that reached out to help with flyers. This art was made by 2 beautiful ladies I’m grateful to have worked with: @thebountifulbewitcher on ig (1st one)
@abaskervilledesign on IG (2nd & 3rd one)
This event is for any, and everyone. We love, love and connection around these parts!
In the past when I end up alone I tend to just stay alone and it ruins my mood. Moved to philly recently and haven't had a chance to get to know anyone local yet. I'm trans mtf only 4 months into transition and mildly autistic so I really struggle to adapt to new social spaces, it doesn't help that I just boymode everywhere but if anyone would be willing to let me tag along with them that'd be awesome and I promise I'll be good company, thanks!
edit: Had a great time yesterday, thank you all so much! 😄
🍓🍊🍋🥝🫐🍇 As someone who’s run Queer events going on nine years, anywhere from 10 - 20 per month, what I hear most often is that people feel lonely, and crave genuine human connection. Often, they’re nervous attending things solo. We all need IRL connection. Especially in this terrifying political hellscape we are currently in.
💕 Fruit Salad is a structured, yet really fun, set up to make new friends. It’s open to any and all self – identified queer folks 21+. 75% of people participating come on their own. Everyone wants the same thing – new friends. Genuine connections. Face-to-face interactions.
ℹ️ How it works: check in, scan a QR code that takes you to a questionnaire designed to highlight and uncover common values and interests you may have with other people attending. This algorithm of weighted questions sorts you into for groups. You chat with the other people in that group. Then it sorts that small group into an even smaller one made up of 5 to 10 people typically. This is your cohort of the most closely aligned potential friends! After mingling for a while there’s a countdown and your number one potential Queer BFF is revealed to you!
😅After that, everyone’s in a pretty good mood and hangs out for another half hour to an hour. Often people in the second cohort will have exchange numbers and head out on the town together. Come and give it a try! You literally have nothing to lose.

Hi! My name is Felix, I am a fully licensed tattooer working out of my small private studio, Pink Sheep Tattoo, in Kensington!
I had a cancellation this week that has me a little stressed so I’m offering a discount if someone can claim a half-day spot tomorrow!
I have tons of other time I’d like to fill in May as well. I work primarily in color but I am always happy to do black and grey as well (and show examples if you’re interested!) Most of my single session, custom work costs between $200-600 for a rough idea- it’s important to me to work with my clients budget, as long as we are realistic I can almost always make something happen that works for everyone!
My IG is @felixmadethis for more examples of my work, DM me there or here to book!
Anyone you recommend in the area? Looking for in-person. Thanks!
Hopefully this is ok to post here, please let me know if it’s not!
35 trans ftm - my fiancé (female) and I recently moved to the Mount Airy/Germantown area and I’ve been trying to find ways to make friends that does not require going downtown on weeknights.
We are big outdoors people. Hiking. Walking in the Wissahickon. Food. Music. Also love dogs and cats lol. Idk I feel weird posting personal info here.
Any groups or clubs out here? Or folks that would maybe want to go to trivia at Mount airy tap room or wissahickon brewery?
