We really should have thrown out our BBW jingle, because today Lindy came locked and loaded with not one but TWO epic business ideas. Please direct all Middle-Aged Flower Girl booking inquiries to deartextmeback@gmail.com thank you, and if you care to invest in Mary Janes For Men call our reps at (703) 829-0003!

And one of our most bizarre new segments yet: Straight Pride Month??!

Since most of you have messed up brains like ours (as verified by the fact that you are listening to this episode and/or reading these shownotes), we respectfully offer a content warning RE suicide attempts. We’re not making it that deep, but if you want to, feel free to skip 34:21 through 52:49.  It involves TI (the rapper) coming to the rescue of **multiple people** ??????? Jokes aside, you don’t need TI if you’re struggling—maybe try calling or texting the lifeline at 988 or getting help via 988lifeline.org.

SUPPORT RAIMUNDO 

As anyone who has met him can attest, Rai is a supernova of love and joy who would do anything for his community, and Rai's community is the whole world. It's time to reflect that love back to him. We encourage our Textmebackolytes to donate $1, $5, $12, whatever you can. Thank you to our lovely Patrons who have empowered the podcast to support our friend.

Plus, stick around for a touching tribute to Meagan’s dearest 18 year old cat Eleanor.
