May 22 Word of the Day
A moment that is generally agreed to have had a significant influence on pop culture and everyday life. While the term was coined by Rose McGowan in context of the #MeToo movement, and is mostly associated with the K-pop community, the phenomenon is universal and a basic component of how culture works.
Real world events such as social/political movements, the election of a new U.S. President, major catastrophes and disasters, as well as entertainment such as movies, music and TV, can all function as cultural resets. Notable cultural resets in relatively recent memory include:
* The Beatles appearing on the Ed Sullivan show in 1964
* The Watergate scandal of 1974
* The release of Nevermind by Nirvana in 1991
* The September 11, 2001 attacks
* The election and inauguration of Barack Obama in 2009
* The COVID-19 pandemic

"The Nineties politically started with the fall of the Berlin Wall on November 9, 1989 and the Soviet Union dissolving on December 26, 1991, and ended with both the 2000 Presidential election which saw the victory of George W. Bush and the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001 which left people so stupefied that it functioned as something of a cultural reset button." - TV Tropes' article on the 1990s

A magical world where noone is faithful to their partners, everyone carries a gun and R Kelly narrates every action anyone does.
He looks at the closet, I pull out my beretta. He walks up to the closet, get closer to the closet, now he’s at the closet, damn he’s opening the closet…

A place for all the baby gays so increase their gayness, and when they leave the closet they will be a grown up gay and be comfortable in their gayness 🌈🌈
Oh my god you see a baby gay in its natural habitat peeking out of the closet, now walking out, now shutting the closet door. And now that gay is burning that closet with their beautiful rainbow fire. THE END🌈🌈🌈!
