Got some GOODIES this weekend 😎🏳️‍🌈

Barbie, MOTU, G.I. Joe, Transformers, Ewoks and a whole lotta vintage goodness came home with me — and most of it is already up in The Q***r Nerd eBay store 👀

We’re kicking the shop into full gear, so if vintage toys, retro collectibles and pure nostalgia are your thing, come dig around 🛒✨

Now I wanna know: **what’s the best find you’ve scored lately?!**

We had a fun little summer vacation on Batuu and at Disney, but it’s time to hit the ground running for Fall/Holiday season! 🍂🎄🚀

SO… WE’RE BUYING STUFF 👀

Vintage/retro toys, video games, trading cards, collectibles, and basically anything that makes you go “holy s**t I had one of those.”

We’re looking for everything from the Y2K era all the way back to your parents’ and grandparents’ toys. Big collections, small collections, random boxes you found in the attic—we wanna see it.

No inquiry is too small, so slide into our DMs and show us what you’ve got. 👀

And obviously the Disney/Batuu pics are attached for the algorithm, attention, and because we looked cute. ✨🏰🌌

For today’s Q***r Nerd Pride history post, this one is dedicated to the q***rdos.

The weirdos. The loud ones. The soft ones. The leather folks, trans girls, drag queens, butches, femmes, s*x workers, street kids, nerds, outcasts, and every beautiful q***r who was told they were too much, too strange, too visible, too impossible.

Last night, on a Saturday bleeding into Sunday morning, I was at Eagle thinking about Stonewall. About Marsha P. Johnson. About our ancestors who refused to disappear.

And here in Atlanta, I couldn’t help but think about the 2009 Eagle raid too. How far we’ve come, and how quickly history reminds us there is still so much left to fight for.

Pride was never just a party. It was a refusal. A riot. A flame passed hand to hand by people who risked everything so we could dance, love, mourn, survive, and exist out loud.

We keep that flame lit for Marsha. For Stonewall. For Eagle. For the ones we lost. For the q***rdos who came before us, and the q***rdos still finding their way home.

Happy Pride. Stay weird. Stay loud. Keep burning. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Continuing our Pride series with one of our favorite artists: Keith Haring.

And honestly, it’s been wild seeing younger q***rs wear his art without knowing what a fu***ng icon he was.

Keith wasn’t just making cute little dancing figures. He helped give q***r resistance, AIDS activism, s*x, grief, rage, joy, and survival a visual language. His work was bold, public, and impossible to ignore at a time when silence was literally killing us.

After being diagnosed with AIDS in 1988, Keith used his art and platform for awareness, activism, and care. In 1989, he founded the Keith Haring Foundation to support AIDS organizations, children’s programs, and the work he knew needed to keep living after him.

Keith died from AIDS-related complications in 1990 at only 31 years old.

But his art is still everywhere: shirts, murals, museums, merch, Lego sets, and half the things y’all buy without knowing the history behind them.

So please know the name behind the lines.

Happy Pride, Keith. Thank you for every fu***ng thing. We still carry the torch you lit.

Meet the owner behind The Q***r Nerd 🫶

Hi y’all, I’m Roby! I’ve been obsessed with vintage toys, retro treasures, and nostalgic little serotonin boosts for as long as I can remember. I first learned how to “pick” at a young age, and now I get to use that eye for lost treasures to help these pieces find new homes.

Whether you’re buying something for your collection, your inner child, or someone you love, I want you to know there’s a real q***r nerd behind the shop who genuinely cares about what I’m sending out into the world.

Thank you so much for supporting my small business. It truly means the world. 🫶🥰
