It’s June, y’all — and you know what that means.
IT’S OFFICIALLY PRIDE MONTH.
Pride Month is celebrated in June to honor the 1969 Stonewall riots in Manhattan, which, according to the Library of Congress, are considered “a tipping point for the Gay Liberation Movement in the United States.”
Even though President Trump has, once again, managed to avoid tweeting about Pride Month (shocker!), there is certainly enough enthusiasm on Twitter to more than compensate for his unresponsiveness. (And, let’s be honest: Trump’s lack of support only makes Gay Pride that much sweeter.)
Here are some of the funniest, loveliest and fiercest LGBT Pride Month tweets so far — and the best part is, they’ve only just begun:

Pride is a colorful response to a prompt from a society that tells us we're supposed to be hiding in a closet. That's why straight people don't have it. You're not attending a straight pride you're just going outside.

Happy Pride month! Don't forget to draw a rainbow on your doorpost before sundown so Mike Pence passes over your house.
