Internet Absolutely Losing Its Shit Over SCOTUS Gay Marriage Ruling
In DepthIf you haven’t yet seen the news, it’s a great day for the gay community and an awful one for homophobes: the Supreme Court of the United Stated legalized gay marriage in all of the land! In honor of the ruling, here are some of the fantastic and touching reactions of Americans on the internet.
Some of these images are funny, some are heartbreaking, and at least one is a straight-up selfie of a woman pouting in approval of equality. Plus there are two dudes who seem so exhausted by the fight that they can’t even get too excited about the fact that they’re getting married. And that’s fair—but time marches on, a rainbow showed up above the White House, and Ben & Jerry’s renamed their chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream to “I Dough, I Dough” in support of equality.
How you gonna tell us gay marriage is wrong when actual rainbows and ice cream support it?
