Department of Public Works employee Eric Batman claims that having to see a Progress Pride flag flying outside the department’s Alhambra, California, headquarters during the month of June effectively forces him to “celebrate, recognize, and solemnize conduct and actions that he views as sin” in conflict with his sincerely held Christian religious beliefs, according to a lawsuit filed in March by anti-LGBTQ+ evangelical nonprofit the Liberty Counsel.

that one Mariah Carey one.

Imagine this:

You're a mall kiosk worker. It's a wednesday. Lunch break soon. You're just scrolling looking at the photos of your friends costumes when suddenly the mall radio stops.

Odd... you look at the clock but before you can even read the time you hear.... "I dont want a lottt for christmas...."

Your heart palpitates.

It's 11:32 on November 2nd and you're about to hear the same 30 tracks on repeat for 2 months.
