Hetero, nuclear family, dad checking in

I'm in deep red Tennessee. When they declared June nuclear family month...

I immediately went to flags for good and bought this

It's flying on my porch currently. Because fuck those guys.

I'm assuming nuclear family month is a reactionary anti-pride Christian virtue signaling thing?

Huh, I guess I've never seen the Tennessee flag before despite living in a bordering state.

Some dumbass kids spraypainted "GAY PEOPLE ARE NOT COOL" on the bridge into town, so I snuck out there with my red spraycan and put an X into the "NOT". I've never tagged anything, I felt like an idiot doing it. Just so gay people know we got their back in this town, in case they see it.

Could get a few other colours to have covered it with a rainbow. Though that is quite a few spraycans to carry.

Also “not cool” in the US is best known as an exceptionally low-effort, apathetic, and/or impotent rebuke, so the correction hits like “forgive our pathetic shitheads”

If you'd like to file for a legal alternative, you must submit proof of ten severed Nazi heads. Your request may be filed multiple times, but no guarantee for it to be approved.

I try to not be seen as queer at work and I still have a pride flag in my office as a sign of support. Honestly, surprised there hasn't been a single comment about it in the years I've had it up.

I put it up after someone I know was talking about how they put up a pride flag and then a lot of neighbors joined in and it helped their daughter feel safer and more welcomed in their community (she wasn't even queer afaik, her mom just had a girlfriend).

I instantly thought of this character in the Key & Peele Office Homophobe sketch (or whatever it's called).

It’s also so that bigots who want to pick on marginalized people will think twice after noticing how many enemy flags are nearby.
