It's June, which means it's peak time to celebrate our queer siblings who are leading the charge and sparking change. Pride actually started out as a protest at New York City's Stonewall Inn in 1969, and since then, it's become a month-long celebration of the accomplishments and visibility of the LGBTQ+ community. Pride month is all about uplifting and spending time with your loved ones, whether they're blood relatives or your chosen family.
Aside from reading books written by queer authors, listening to bops upon bops in your pride playlist, and watching movies about the LGBTQ experience, the best way to celebrate this month is to gather all your fave people and giggle at the funniest (and let's be real, super relatable) memes. Whether you're looking to meet your match at the "Homo Depot" or can't help but laugh when trying to pick your pride outfit, there are pride month memes for everyone out there. Ahead, we've listed some of the best ones we found from hilarious content creators across Instagram and TikTok.
