Summary

This week: Jen tries to read an article about a woman who claims her neighbor left a note on her door that her outdoor rainbow lamps were “aggressively gay”. The woman (who may or may not be gay) did a Go Fund Me and raised $48,000 - but there’s a follow up article that is the REAL story. In trying to read the article, Jen tells a story about how things really were more oppressive in the 1990’s and how progress has been made which might be hard for younger people to understand as they didn’t live through the less tolerant time.
