      At least if the little shit came out, there’d be something that I could point to and say ‘look, he hasn’t lost his ENTIRE spine since John McCain passed away’ but I doubt it will happen. Even though everybody in Congress and most politically minded individuals happen to know. Does he honestly believe that people think he remained a bachelor to the age of 67 bc he’s picky? Even tho being married is one of the best ways to succeed in politics (if you’re as cynical as I am). He actually voted against same sex marriage and fought for a constitutional amendment in ‘06 to protect “the traditional institution of marriage”. He’s not only a spineless loser, but has been one for a long time.
      Edit: And that’s a big difference he could make. A Republican who finally just comes out of the closet and says it’s the 21st century and he’s come to realize that things he said in the past were done out of fear. Bc of his many years in the military. Being gay doesn’t have to define you but neither should it be something of which to be ashamed. Like I said, his colleagues already know so suddenly making a fuss would be extremely hypocritical of them and would merely show them to be the nasty creatures that they are. And he’d be able to live his live freely, as opposed to in the shadows. Since it took all the rest of his moronic colleagues to allow Trump to get away with his horrific behavior and not just Graham, I could see being impressed with him taking that step, even if it took 67 years for him to do so. Like I said, it would be so much more meaningful (not to say it’s unhelpful for Democratic Party individuals to come out themselves) but to have a more conservative voice to add to the LGBTQ+ community would be so very useful. IMPO.
      And yes, I am always impressed w Randy’s lyrics. Always.

And does that put him in a special category w, say, the Oscars, Emmys, shows that are in some sort of “limited” category or he up against ppl like John Oliver, etc. which would be a nightmare (only bc, like Jon Stewart before him, Oliver appears on track to win say 10 of these in a row).

Rainbow was nominated for a *Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Short Form Variety Series* in 2019 and 2020. After Primetime Emmy Award categories were combined starting in 2021 to form the *Outstanding Short Form Comedy, Drama or Variety Series* , _The Randy Rainbow Show_ was nominated in 2021 and 2022.
      To be eligible for Tony Award consideration, a production must have officially opened on Broadway by the eligibility date that the Management Committee establishes each year. A Broadway theatre is defined as having 500 or more seats, among other requirements. While the rules define a Broadway theatre in terms of its size, not its geographical location, the list of Broadway theatres is determined solely by the Tony Awards Administration Committee. As of the 2016-2017 season, the list consisted solely of 41 theaters: 40 located in the vicinity of Times Square in New York City and Lincoln Center's Vivian Beaumont Theater. The Tony Awards Rules & Regulations is 42 pages long at the Tony Awards website. Rainbow's tour does not qualify for Tony Award consideration.

    I've watched a lot of Randy Rainbow videos and this feels like the first time he's so angry he could cry. I live in a country with strict gun control and oddly we have almost no gun violence. We have guns, we are just very strict on who can actually own them and have laws on storage and usage. We can go to church, or mosque, or synagogue, or school, or night out and not even think about whether we will survive the day. Our children don't have to wear bulletproof backpacks and fall to their knees with their hands up as soon as they see a police officer. We once looked to America for leadership, now we look to America as an example of how not to run a country.

      ​@@LS-ei7xk come live in the UK, most of Europe, Australia, New Zealand... You'd be surprised at how many European countries have a lot of guns yet rarely have gun problems. Look up Switzerland - they've got a similar gun count per capita as the USA. I can't ever remember a mass shooting there. Nobody would blame you for moving out of the chaos. (Though Switzerland is bloody expensive! Good chocs though lol.)

      @@y_fam_goeglyd Thanks for the invite, but I'm old, disabled; and poor; not sure they'd want me. But if a miracle occurred, would love to. I've read New Zealand especially is beautiful.
