| 0:00.0 | Hello. Welcome to Blue Minds. Your personal relaxation station. I'm your host, BlueSkies. I'm your host, Blue Skies. |
| 0:22.6 | I'm happy to be here with you, and I want to say Happy Pride Month. |
| 0:31.6 | I know there's a lot to mourn and grieve, but there are also things to celebrate, so keep that in mind. |
| 0:40.3 | And if you're someone who is questioning whether you're LGBTQ2IA, or, you know, you're just not sure, you're still discovering yourself and figuring things out, that's totally fine. |

| 3:03.6 | And the A stands for asexual or aromantic. |
| 3:08.3 | It can also stand for agender. |
