It was 2:20 p.m. on this day in 2021. I was in my classroom- quadruple masked- explaining to my students how queer slaves actually wrote the Constitution, when I heard it: sobbing from the hall.
I went outside to find my colleague, an English teacher, sobbing uncontrollably. At first I thought Ron DeSantis had made our jobs even more difficult by banning us from discussing our kinks in the classroom, but it was far worse.
“A white supremacist insurrectionist has his feet on Nancy Pelosi’s desk,” they/them cried.
I rushed back into my classroom to see the look of fear on my students’ faces.
“Are we going to lose access to our puberty blockers?” a purple-haired demiboy asked.
“If they overthrow our democracy, yes,” I replied.
For the next several hours we watched the TV in fear as several hundred terrorists searched the Capitol for Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez, so they could have their way with her.
Thankfully, a brave police officer of color shot a hysterical Karen in the face, sending the MAGA idiots running for their lives at the sight of such a strong Black man.
When it was over, 640 police officers of color had been killed and Ilhan Omar’s brother-husband had been deported back to Somalia.
My students knew how close we had come to losing our democracy- mostly because I told them so.
We must #NeverForgetJan6
How did you hear the news?
juice wells steals $1m from our fans and our university and it is “the wild west NIL landscape” but when i steal $10 from my fraternity to buy bojangles i am “embezzling” and “graduated 2 years ago, get a job” make it make sense

Cool Lizard:
Tennessee is so fucking trash. They simply cannot lose with grace. Every time they get humiliated they do some dirty, dumb, embarrassing, immature shit at the end of the game. Against Florida and Mizzou. Love to see a sore loser get beat. Trash fans. Trash players. Fuck UT.
