June officially kicked off Pride month in the United States and several other countries. It promotes visibility, awareness and equality for LGBTQ+ individuals.

Unfortunately, the celebration is often frowned upon by those who dedicate their lives to condemning and harassing marginalized groups on social media.


Luckily, there are allies like Georgie Henley who have LGBTQ+ people's backs and shut down hateful trolls.

Henley—who played Lucy Pevensie throughout the Chronicles of Narnia series on the big screen—has not only grown up since the movies, but she has fiercely defended the LGBTQ+ community.

On Wednesday, the 25-year-old actress wished everyone "happy pride" and followed her tweet with a generous helping of exclamation points to mark her enthusiasm.

She accompanied the tweet with a screenshot of a homophobic rant written by a Twitter troll who was extremely disappointed upon discovering the actress of a popular movie, with strong religious undertones, was an ally of the gay community.

The unnamed hater wrote:

"Homosexuality is one of the decays in the human species. Made more popular & accepted since the 1960's."
"Normality & innocence has taken a back seat in societies self made journey to destruction."
"I can not believe that the Narnia actress has stooped so low."

Henley proudly owned her stance and responded with:

"AND I'LL STOOP LOWER!!!!!"

She followed her declaration by adding a trio of angel emojis to stick the landing.

Twitter praised her for her fearlessness.






The community expressed deep gratitude for their loyal Queen.



And with that, the troll was vanquished, peace was restored and the festivities celebrating all love and gender identities resumed in the kingdom of Twitter-land.

Happy Pride and long live the Queen!

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
