Today it occurred to me that the word "gay" got hijacked to begin with.
I have now lost the option to say. "I'm so gay right now" When I'm in a good mood.
This is what they took from us 😔

I would support you saying that but you're right, some idiotic authoritarians who fail to parse nuance well would screech at you for doing so.
It's all about how the word is used.
If it's used with hateful intent, it's not a very kind thing to do.
If it's used without hateful intent to communicate accurately, there's nothing wrong with that.
