I just got goosebumps during this Tony Award speech omg
"Ballroom welcomes everyone. To the 12-year-old kid who doesn't fit in who might be watching this on a television in their bedroom with the volume turned low, come find your home at the Jellicle Ball. Ballroom is about chosen family. "
—Zhailon Levingston and Bill Rauch after winning Best Direction for a Musical for Cats: The Jellicle Ball
I loved this moment during the Tony Awards opening number lol
Lea Michele (who didn't get a nod for Chess): We don't do it for the awards
June Squibb (the oldest acting nominee at 96): All the parts I've played, I've slayed 'em
Everyone: Leading Lady Marmalade!
hell yes to this acceptance speech from Qween Jean, who just became the first openly trans person to ever win a Tony
"We are here for the legacy of queer people. Trans people, we have to take up space. We have to shift the paradigm...the world right now is deeply, deeply combating so many ailments, and we know as a society that when we come together we can make real, permanent change."

Russia calling in bomb threats to polling places in liberal districts across the country should be bigger news right now. They’re interfering for Trump right in the open, right in front of our faces
Regardless of who wins the presidency, America is already lost. The fact that they can still show such a high vote for Donald Trump is nothing short of unimaginable.
