#155 btw
happy july, qweirdos! this month we're focusing on indoctrination. since our communities have been accused of such mischief for decades, we figured it was high time to do our part in this grand gay agenda we've all queerly conspired to perpetrate on the straights. this week we're talking about "conversion therapy" a.k.a. "reparative therapy" a.k.a. "reintegrative therapy." whatever they want to call it, we call it indoctrination. be queer & stay weird! xox - ny
