Gay & Tired I Episode 215

The USWNT team said Black women to the FRONT and Sha'Carri Richardson set a new record at the Olympic trials. No surprise here, 25 rainbow waving companies donated $18 million to anti-LGBTQ politicians and a study shows that Black people who don't support queer rights oppose attacks on the LGBTQ+ community. Bad Queer opinions include being out longer does not make you more queer and folks who walk around in all rainbow are, basically, rainbow capitalism.
