just posting here because i find Bob's courage & overall message with what he does, in spite of modern american LGBTQ+ pushback, to be really inspiring.

"I think that it's important for queer people in Nashville, especially young ones, or people who are afraid in general, to see that like it's OK to go forward, it's OK to not be afraid to be seen. I think there's a lot of laws that want us to hide or go back into the closet or just stop existing in public. For some people, the existence of queer people in public is offensive. And quite frankly, I find that offensive."

I was scrolling and the post above this one for me was a tabletop post. So I saw that it was in tabletop and then either my eyes or my dyslexia read this title instead. And I thought “An afternoon with Bob the Drag Queen” I need to know more about this board game hahaha.
