The GOP is destroying America bit by bit. We need to boot them out of power in November. Who’s with me?

Screenshot of a post on X by philip lewis (@Phil_Lewis_) stating that PBS News says this Sunday will be “PBS News Weekend’s” last episode due to federal budget cuts. Below the text is a video still of a PBS News Weekend broadcast showing two anchors seated behind a news desk in a blue studio, with a large screen behind them reading “PBS NEWS WEEKEND.”

pink in the night (2019)

lyric comic to pink in the night, by mitski. page 1 text: and i know i've kissed you before, but i didn't do it right. scene 1: a little boy and girl are sitting in the rain. the boy wipes away tears, having tripped and scratched a knee. the girl leans forward to kiss the small wound. scene 2: the two friends are in elementary school, holding hands. the boy looks at a picture depicting a mom, dad, and child.

page 2 text: can i try again, try again, try again. scene 1: high school. they lie on the floor during a study session, but they only have eyes for each other. scene 2: college. the same couple, only now they are two girls, kissing in bed. scene 3: the girls are getting married, exchanging a sweet kiss in a field of flowers. sunset colors cast warm light onto their wedding dresses.

page 3 text: try again, and again, and again. scene 1: the girls are moving in together. one dozes off against an unpacked moving box as the other kisses her head. scene 2: disneyland. both wear minnie mouse ears as they take a selfie, laughing at the kiss mark one has left on her wife's cheek. scene 3: the childhood friends have grown older. one woman hides a bouquet behind her back as they kiss over breakfast.

page 4 text: and again, and again, and again? scene 1: the women wake up in bed together, hints of grey in their hair. one kisses the other's bare shoulder. scene 2: a winter walk. they kiss as their dog plays in the snow. scene 3: the shore of a beach. the wives have greying hair and fine wrinkles, but they're still just as in love. they hold each other close, laughing, full of affection.

Protip for folks who consider themselves an LGBT Ally:

If I see you in public wearing Pride Flags, "You're Safe with Me", "My Body My Choice" pins and whatnot... and then seeing you buying a crap ton of Harry Potter merch, while wearing your HP Deathly Hallows earrings?

You're not an ally.
