UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera

In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.

As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

Does anyone else have an MST3K line they use regularly, even if it makes no sense out of context?

Because I have both "That'll keep your panfish down for a while." and "Come come, boys, we must confound Jerry at every turn!" from MST3K the movie alone.

Transition is crazy expensive, and since target seemed like a chain store that cared, I essentially bought my whole new wardrobe there. I honestly can't imagine why they'd throw away that kind of top-of-mind place in the queer community (DINKS galore!) for a chance at a few fash-bux 🫠

Good. During my active transition in 2021 I bought soooo much stuff at target because it felt safe. My wife and I haven't been back since January and we've found plenty of replacements for everything they sell there.

It's Breez! Of the 6 GoBots available at Wendy's in 1986, he's easily the best one imo. Blade Arms and Pit Vipers is an unbeatable vibe

Being old is awesome. My brain refuses to properly distinguish between Sabrina Carpenter, Selena Gomez, and Sydney Sweeney despite me knowing, for a fact, those are all wildly different people

The idea that Hulk Hogan might be laid to rest in one of his bandannas makes me think of future civilizations that might discover his grave one day and interpret a red bandanna with HULKAMANIA emblazoned on it as a warning that he was sealed there to contain this Hulkamania.
