2 months ago I was looking for things to do on my trip and decided that even though the next leads hadn’t been announced, they had been having really good casting so I would buy a ticket… and then 7 days later they announced fucking Jinkx Monsoon

Can’t believe how lucky I got

I can’t believe I get to see this live tonight

“As I remember it, the Civil Rights Movement had no arrests, the Vietnam protests were peaceful, and no bricks were thrown at Stonewall.” That’s how a lot of you sound this week.

obviously the right way to protest genocide is to quietly wait fifty years and admit that genocide was bad and we can't let it happen again. and when another one happens, you wait another fifty years and admit that genocide was bad and we can't let it happen again. and then

Democrats are like maybe the 2016 “shame them into voting for us” strategy will work with an even less charismatic candidate!

stop blaming president joe biden for not doing anything about the police violence and funding the israeli occupation. he’s just a little guy, presidents are weak. plus don’t you understand if he loses trump will become president and have unlimited power

Y’all. This is the notice of suspension that one of the UGA students received. I have redacted their name. But take a note of the timestamp. Email sent at 5:09 PM, they have to contact her office by 5:10 PM, or else they are suspended at 5:11 PM. You can’t make this up. 🤦🏼‍♀️
