If you’re gonna need the internet for anything over the next week or so, I’d advise you to do it quickly, because it is about to get seriously broken:

I'm ready for anything. A guy made Minnesota's 19-time national champion dance team. Dude rocked.

Listen ladies we know you wanted equal pay but how about a bag of arbitrarily colored candies: https://twitter.com/PopBase/status/1612525506712436736

 

[LynahFan]

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Equal pay? Have we even come to the conclusion that they deserve health care yet? Let's start with the basics before we get to radical things like your "equal pay."

Yeah, let's start with "The State doesn't get to murder you because of religious fanatics."

Corporate woke truly is the worst sometimes.

Another form of privilege. Like white people who don't see color.

I felt Pride last year was sponsored by the SCP Foundation and the Umbrella Corporation. I have a similar feeling here.

 

[Fishman'81]

The idea that people just *bam* identify as another gender just like that is absurd and ridiculous. It just doesn't happen.


But go ahead and keep tilting at windmills.

Happened for Lia.

I noticed when airlines and other travel-related companies started showing young, clean cut gay couples in their advertising over the last decade, and I was both happy and a bit cynical. Like, congrats LGBTQ, you've officially made it into the mainstream when you become a demographic worthy of being depicted in ads by a pair of recently aged-out Abercrombie models.

Remember when REI started off their anti-union speech with a land declaration?

This is how formerly shunned groups are dissolved in the acid of capitalism. With non-threatening yet still impossibly pretty models, and quirky music.

MLK, your dream is a reality.

(In all honesty, MLK would likely have hated trans people.)

Happened for Lia.

I mean, no it didn't?

 

[Kepler]

Cherchez les femmes.

 

[Fishman'81]

Sure it did. Ask the team.

 

[Swansong]

I'm not particularly concerned about the opinion of other bigots? Are you really digging in on this?
