Have you ever read something where you just KNOW the writer talks with their hands, does the sound effects, and would bust out a little dance if it suited the story? That's Erica. She's a colorful storyteller whose sense of humor and fearless honesty make a big impact. Her rants might go for the emotional jugular, hit your funny bone, or shock you and your mama out of your fajas. Usually it's all three. Often chronicling her life in Florida, her stories are full of characters like "Bikini Rifle Lady", "Mariachi Neighbor," and "Barbara The NextDoor Evangelist." There's almost always a message in the madness, and that's what people connect with most. Also her deep and undying love for Tevin Campbell. You can find more of her work at www.EricaFazio.com

If there's one thing the LGBTQ+ community has time for during Pride Month, it's fighting petty with petty when it comes to handling homophobes.

TikTok user @addison.foskey had all the time to play recently after someone in his neighborhood vandalized his yard.

Initially, Addison had up one small rainbow lawn flag and a small sign supporting human rights. They sat at the base of a tree, not taking up much space at all.

And then one day Addison came home to find the sign stolen from the frame and the flag torn up and thrown on the ground.

As far as Addison was concerned, this was petty homophobic behavior deserving of an equally petty response.

"Wait and watch" he warned


TikTok loves a vague and kind of sexy threat, loves getting involved in petty neighbor drama, and loves Pride Month shenanigans.

This was a 3 for 3 situation, so of course the people were invested.

While people flooded the comments, Addison was off being a busy little bee.

First, the news showed up. Then donors started stepping forward.

This epic clip happened:

So many people wanted to help that the community ended up holding two live events full of discourse, support and celebration.

All that work to replace the one small flag... oh yeah and to add about 599 others. And some banners. And a new sign.

Each flag is marked with the name of an LGBT community member, a supporter, an ally - each name a little bit of love to combat and completely overshadow the hate that broke the first flag.

It was ... a lot.

TikTok has clearly also read from the book of First Pettylonians with the way they cheered for this.

The people love this version of vengeance, what can we say?

Sarah Jessica Parker Claps Back At Conservative Critics Who Want Her To 'Shut Up' About Politics And 'Act'

Nothing seems to get conservatives' goats quite like celebrities having political opinions—well, liberal and leftist celebrities, anyway.

They seem to love it when weird right-wing celebs like Kevin Sorbo get on the internet and say bizarre, usually counterfactual nonsense, or when JK Rowling does her darnedest to make her legacy not about Harry Potter but about her weird obsession with trans people.

Ann Coulter Faces Fierce Backlash After Saying 'We Didn't Kill Enough Indians' In Deleted Post

Far-right provocateur Ann Coulter is facing fierce criticism after she made a genocidal remark in a now-deleted post on X in response to University of Minnesota professor and Navajo Nation member Melanie Yazzie's speech about colonization.

Yazzie, in a speech at last year's annual Socialism Conference, said "decolonization is the only thing that is going to save us as a species" during a panel hosted by Red Nation, a Native American nonprofit that advocates for Palestinian and Native American rights. She also said that the United States is the "greatest predator empire that has ever existed" and said it should be dismantled.
