âFor New York City Pride in 1994 (Stonewall 25), Baker created a mile-long rainbow flag that was carried down First Avenue in Manhattan. During the parade, Baker used scissors to cut segments from the flag to be rushed to Fifth Avenue for an impromptu protest march in front of St. Patrickâs Cathedral, the headquarters of New York Cityâs anti-gay Catholic archdiocese.

Guys... Can someone please help me out. I'm trying to write a story - F1 l, obliviously - but whenever I try to look up all of the retired - and by that, I mean no longer driving an F1 car - all it gives me are the famous people and the recent ones. Like, I went through four different places and only found, maybe, 10 of the retired drivers. I need help, y'allđ
Writing f1 fanfic for creative writing... no one can stop me.
Dont worry I stole another car brand and made them a team and made everyone seem American and changed the names to sound American. Also Guenther is their team principal... I mean Gunther.
Just found out I can make a whole political rant over 20 minutes long. This is all because of 1 paragraph from my comparative politics textbook about autocratization and the institutional changes that normally occur. The parallels between Trump's actions and that one paragraph is crazy. By the way, autocratization is the slow erosion of democracy through lowering the quality of democratic institutions by a specific political leader or party. However he tried to speed run some of the things the moment he got jnto office.
The second paragraph is the one that sparked the rant. Idk if hes tried all of them. I dont really pay attention. But you dont need all of those for it to be considered.
Love how tumblr has its own folk stories. Yeah the God of Arepo weâve all heard the story and we all still cry about it. Yeah that one about the woman locked up for centuries finally getting free. That one about the witch who would marry anyone who could get her house key from her cat and itâs revealed she IS the cat after the narrator befriends the cat.
I decided to write one of these because it seemed like a fun challenge.
Plaintext version below the cut:

straighten your back, soldier. youâve been waiting for a chance, a smile hidden behind the shell of the world. your longing leaves you tender.
you gave up your fight. you burned out for this: mundane authority. you made yourself ice. I will keep control. I wonâtâ
I will stay perfect and lonely as the moon. when you touch, it is only burned out houses against the empty sky.
Harry Du Bois
under the weight of the world, alone, the sunrise brings you empty bottles and regret. peels away your skin. leaves you a raw nerve.
love left you, and you betrayed yourself. pale in the winter. melting in the springtime. your dreams, your memories flinch away from you
until you wake, hung over. your head aches. your burning lungs wish to become an explosion of fireworks.
Together
straighten your back under the weight. soldier of the world, youâve been alone waiting for the sunrise. a chance brings you a smile, hidden behind empty bottles and regret. the shell of the world peels away. your longing leaves you. your skin, tender. leaves you a raw nerve.Â
you gave up love. your fight left you. you burned out and you betrayed yourself for this: pale, mundane authority. in the winter you made yourself melting. ice, in the springtime. I will keep your dreams. Control your memories. I wonât flinch away from you.Â
I will stay until you wake, perfect and lonely as hung the moon over your head. when you touch, it aches. is only your burning lungs. burned out houses wish to become against the empty sky, an explosion of fireworks.Â
