Natalie 2016 — howdy all of y’all! I’m a WMST major/intersectional feminist cat who wants to listen, learn, and engage with you! I enjoy finding Trump supporters at parties and letting them spew out all their arguments before gently prompting: “so do you care about women, gay folks, immigrants or you know… anyone who’s not a well-off white dude? Haha (:” The master’s tools may never dismantle the master’s house but stealing the master’s beer is an effective way to ruin his night 🍻😘 👑
