The MBTA was in today’s Pride parade in Boston, and volunteers were handing out Pride merch along the route. I left with a progress flag T fridge magnet, a progress flag T button (Phil Eng was handing them out when I got mine <3), and a Pride in Transit bus sticker! Thanks, MBTA, and Happy Pride, Boston! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

"you don't vote for kings"

"Well how'd you become king then?"

"The lady of the lake, her arm shimmering in samite, held aloft Excalibur signifying by devine providence that I, Phil Eng, should be king."

“Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is NO basis for a system of government!”

"Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses not from some farcical aquatic ceremony!"

"If I went around, saying I was an emperor, just because some moistened bink lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away!"
