I’ve seen more and more people make, like, jokes and comments on this app about how, like, “I forgot that old—that gay people could get old! I forgot that there’s, like, old gay people!” [Pause] Oh my god.
The fact that there are kids identifying with the LGBT+ community who are young enough to have never learned about the AIDS epidemic and what it actually did to us… Like, they just do not know the level of destruction that it caused, to the point where they make jokes about how they don’t— they’ve never seen old gay people, and they don’t know why that is.
The reason you forgot that gay people could get old is because we didn’t. For about fifty years. Because of a virus that was used essentially as a bioweapon against our community in an attempt to wipe us out.
AIDS killed almost an entire generation of us. That’s why you don’t see old gay people very much. It’s because they died young. End transcript.]
everybody is like “oh you think dolls die?” “how would a kid tell if a doll is dead?” have you ever watched a child play with dolls, they have morbid creativity levels that rival Shakespeare
Throwback to that one time I went to a murder mystery Halloween party where we were given characters who correlated with colors and were told to dress in those colors and one dude showed up dressed as Ted Cruz
Okay I found the photos
So he wasn’t just dressed as Ted Cruz, but he had made a mask of Ted Cruz with a detached mouth that was taped to his chin so it would move when he talked and it was every bit as horrifying as it sounds/looks
Here he is attempting to drink a beer through the mask. His goal was to not take the mask off at all
