27 Tweets About Pride Month You'll Want To Retweet ASAP

Jennifer Kustanovich

My best friends and I live for the gayest month of the year when profile pictures transform into rainbow-themed masterpieces, the gay couple across the street displays their rainbow flags around the house, and glitter seems to magically fall from the sky!

It's the best time of the year!

My friends and family love to show off our pride and, although we do it all year round, it's especially liberating to have an entire month honoring a group of people that deserve the same respect as any other heterosexual individual. We always go to NYC Pride to celebrate ourselves, one another, and all the sexualities of the world! I've been to pride events all over the globe to experience and support the pure charm of humanity. Not only is pride fun, supportive, energizing, and hilarious, but there is no other environment where the surrounding love in the air is palpable. As people throw glitter, condom and lube packages, and multi-colored flags at you, there is no possible way you can not feel included.

So, stand up for your identity—no matter who you are—and we will be here ready to party with you!

1. Best part of pride month in NYC is the subway posters

The first time I saw these, I started to scream and cry. I love my city.

2. Wig-mazed

I'm astonished, amazed, and trying to copy this as soon as I figure out how get all those wigs on.

3. Oops, guess I made you gay

#howitworks

4. Where my science-geeks at?!

I think I have finally discovered a way to enjoy chemistry.

5. Emotional mamas get it

Supportive parents make the world go round.

6. Hot, sexy, and international humans!

But did you catch that inspirational rainbow kippah on slide 13?! Now that's what I like to call #JewishPride

7. God IS for the gays

She figured it out in a few seconds, you can, too!

8. LGBTQ+ anthems you never knew you needed

Adding these jams to my playlist right now!

9. Sorry, you can't pray the gay away

But really, what kind of monster would want to pray all this love away?

10. It would be even better if the sirens played Madonna's "Vogue"

Move to the right of the road and "let your body move to the music!"

11. Worldwide pride hits me right in the heart-balls every time

It warms my heart to see acceptance in foreign places.

12. Check out the sign in the back

I'm confused about all this confusion.

13. #ProtectTransKids

It's okay to not know, but be open to listening.

14. If you can attend all of them, you get a prize

Buying travel tickets now! Whose joining me? I need an airplane buddy.

15. Grandpa and granddaughter duo

If this isn't the cutest thing you've ever seen than I don't know what is.

16. Danny DeVito + Pride = Gaymazing

He was on a float waving to people! I hope I'm that cool by age 73.

17. Yes, it is that part!

Zach, I don't know you, but kudos to you!

18. "Falling in love at a conversion therapy camp"

I also have a confession, not an expert on gay cinema, but totally watching "But I'm a Cheerleader."

19. Never Stop Learning (and Educating)

It's always a good idea to brush up on your knowledge of identity!

20. Unbreakable

Everyone is everyone. All is all. We are united.

21. Weird people are the best people

I'm weird and I'm proud!

22. Relatable

Cue Madonna again!

23. 365 days of pride sounds about right.

And for all our future years.

24. You? Gay? Yeah, we knew already.

When my older brother came out to my mom for the first time, she had a very similar response. Everyone knew he was gay, but he had to be ready to tell everyone himself.

25. Lena Waithe for the win

Waithe's quote doesn't need anymore of a caption.

26. #HoosierDaddy

Love trumps hate.

27. NYC's very own Mike-Hot Pence

That rainbow tie, though?!

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

SUNY Binghamton

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Student Life

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.

3. Oops, guess I made you gay
