Today, July 1, 2017, we the queer community are in mourning for one of our own. Our brightest star has faded from the heavens and the world is that much dimmer without its light. Rest in peace, Facebook Pride reaction, we barely knew ye.

Like us, most of the gay Internet is feeling the loss of a true angel who was, truly, too good for this cruel world.
