Et·som·ni·a (/etˈsämnēə/), noun, 1. a sleep disorder caused by obsessive Etsy browsing. 2. The surprising arrival of weird handmade merchandise ordered when one is only half conscious. (True story.) 3. An excuse for me to be an obnoxious, snarky New Yorker once per week.
This week, in honor of the 50th anniversary of the Stonewall Riots, I’d like to explore some of Etsy’s best(and worst)LGBTQ pride stuff. And because I’m in such a festive mood, there are fewer tragedies than usual!
For more Etsy fun, check out all my weekly Etsomnia™ posts!
‘Pride’ might be overstating it a bit. If I were wearing this, I think I would feel shame.I need one of these beauties! By EqualliThis baby farting a rainbow doubles as a pipe, which makes me think the maker was smoking something when he designed it.“Rainbow Tittyhats with tassels.” TITTYHATS?!? That’s going to stick with me.While it would make me look like a gay Sasquatch, on the right (young, slim) person, this would be adorable! By GypsyTribeCrochetNothing to see here. Just a cat in clothes and heels sewing a rainbow. As they do.I don’t even like afghans when they’re sitting on a couch. I’m certainly not going to wear one!Absolutely stunning Vogue cover art! Sold by ColorsOfBubbles“Gay valentine wreath.” Pass.Mermaids AND rainbows? Count me in! By ScndTimeAroundI don’t know what kind of occasion would call for a furry sleeveless dress, but I promise you, LGBT Pride isn’t one of them.If you’re in the market for gay pride shorts, you may as well get very best and gayest ones! By GorgeousByGorgeousLooks like somebody forgot her makeup setting spray… Amateur.Good news! These also come in men’s sizes. Oh, goody.I wanted to end on an up note this week. Happy Pride month, all! Stunning art by FelixDeon
Once upon a time, I thought rainbow colours could make anything cheerful and appealing. Then I encountered your Etsomnia posts and learned that was truly not the case. As a Potterphile, I totally love the closet t-shirt.

Hahaha. I’m sorry about that. If it’s any consolation, I think we realized it about the same time.
