    He died as he lived, dismissing gun violence and lying about trans people. 😔

      Sometimes, just sometimes - extremely rarely, ALMOST never - certain gun deaths are indeed ”worth it” as Charlie Kirk said

        I don’t know if I’d classify any gun death as “worth it” in the manner of necessary to secure the “right” to bear arms. “Welcome” on the other hand…

      My dumb brain interpreted “lying about” in the sense of “with” or “around” and I was momentarily confused by the thought of CK lying with his head resting on a trans person’s chest. I need to get off the internet.

        He probably did. You know all the republicans hate most what they can’t accept about themselves. Grindr servers crashed in AZ leading up to his memorial.
