All I want in this life is a working class homo to follow me home and stay.

Oh yeah that was totally hyperbolic, but let’s get down to it.

What kind of party could you throw with $900K?

My entire point is:

We do not need their approval.

I feel it. I used to think my father was a good man.

Now, I see him as obedient. :(

Talk about eating the apple, eh? Now I know.

My new ice-breaker at parties is: “So, how were you radicalized?”

This frequently leads to an invitation to an after-party, so 🤷‍♂️

They need 1.2 million to pull it off as planned. Scale back on the rainbow bunting. It’s a huge event and the vendors and businesses in the area rake in cash. It’s got some momentum and this year, based on <gestures at everything > it’s going to be a big pride season.

I do not need corporate money in order to be gay in public.

That’s the spirit!

I think I agree here. Corporate sponsors have proven to be fair-weather friends (shocked, shocked, I say!)

There is money to be made by vendors so the event will happen without a Target logo on everything. It is big enough to be an organic affair, as it should be.

I am no longer sure I wish to preserve any of it. Perhaps I am already thinking about the next thing? I just don’t think revanchism is the right angle on our current situation.

I get that this is a funny, but this is also bucket-of-crabs thinking.

You have no idea who I or anyone voted for, other than yourself. I voted D and I now focus my energy on figuring out how to make them at least pretend to hold the values they espouse.

YouTube is not a legitimate source. The prof is fine but video only links are for the semi literate. It is frankly rude to post a minor comment and expect people to endure a video when a decent reader can absorb the main points from text in 20 seconds.

In some USA jurisdictions the bag fee is a legal requirement

And all statistics are damned lies.

Your colleague is a dick for not backing you up.

When I was in retail (Apple Store), we had a saying “Don’t feed the bears”. Meaning if you give in to petulant outbursts, the offender will keep coming back and asking for more.

Your grasp of history is tenuous.

Also this is not news, it is (dumb) opinion and does not belong in this community.

I think I have seen this one
