I, and other amazing poets, recently contributed some of our work to a charity organized to benefit LGBTQ youth in Colorado after the tragic shooting at Club Q. You can check out the online shop by following the link. The charity was organized by a graphic artist called Noelle Thesbian and 100% of profits will be donated. I encourage you to check it out and help to support people who really need it. https://www.bonfire.com/we-are-club-q #coloradosprings #ClubQMassacre #lgbtq #charityfundraising

While I am usually against the death penalty, this is one time when I wish Colorado had it and didn’t abolish it in 2020. This is the asshole that shot up Club Q
I have zero sympathy that he got beat up like that after what he did, and after what he did, I really wish Colorado still had the death penalty

#ClubQMassacre rips my heart out. Senseless death. Needless suffering. I have a gay nephew whom I love and would die to defend and protect. My life is enriched by his very existence. He harms no one, loves all.
Survivors call ClubQ a safe place, a home.
This act of evil hate tore that apart.
I’m done seeing innocents sacrificed on the altar of cisgen male insecurities.
🖕guns and the scared arseholes who need a piece of metal to feel safe.

Turns out the best way to stop a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with cha cha heels. #ClubQMassacre
News last night showed law enforcement and firefighters congratulating each other for saving lives in #LGBT #ClubQMassacre but it was unarmed patrons who stopped and held the shooter.
“Colorado Springs Mayor John Suthers said one patron grabbed the attacker's own gun and hit him with it during the shooting in Club Q on Saturday night.
“Another club-goer reportedly helped to keep the gunman pinned down until police arrived.”

Well, this is my first post on Mastodon, and I am heartbroken over the Colorado club q shootings. #ClubQMassacre
Heavy.com has a well-researched story on the identity of the gunman in Saturday's massacre at Club Q. The gunman is the grandson of a far right Republican California state representative. He shot 24 people, killing at least 5. #hate #clubq #clubqmassacre #massshooting #coloradospings #lbgtq #firearms #guns #USA

I had a teacher at work tell me she wore pink and blue all week last week for #transvisibilityweek. After what happened at #clubqmassacre overnight this made me smile

Isn’t it shocking that the mass shooting at the gay club happened in Lauren Boebert’s district?! It’s almost as if voting for anti-lgbt yet pro-gun candidates actually DOES cause mass shootings.
People, wake up!!! These ‘conservatives’ are hatemongers!!! They don’t care about you, the aren’t ‘making America great again’. All they are doing is spreading hate and inciting violence!!! #ClubQMassacre
So will the cops who let the ClubQ shooter get away with his prior felonies be charged as accessories?

I'm trying to just go about my day but how can I just put what happened in Colorado Springs last night out of my mind? There's so much mourning to do. I don't know what to say, except that I am here. Not just here in spite of those who would rather we die. I'm here to lift up my queer siblings, and here to prevail together 🏳️🌈
