Read on Twitter
I& #39;ve been getting messages and replies from actual friends over the last few days that I can basically summarize as, "what happened to you?"
Nothing. And everything. I& #39;m the same guy I& #39;ve been but maybe you didn& #39;t know me as well as you think. And maybe we& #39;re just not that close
Nothing. And everything. I& #39;m the same guy I& #39;ve been but maybe you didn& #39;t know me as well as you think. And maybe we& #39;re just not that close
Or maybe you just assumed I checked all the stereotypical boxes like you do and never paid very close attention to who I actually am.
But the pinned tweet on my profile is there for a reason. Because nothing I& #39;ve ever seen summarizes who I am more definitely than that clip.
I was raised by an incredibly thoughtful dad who moved in when I was five and chose to be my dad. And who refused to adopt me because he wouldn& #39;t remove my deceased father from my birth certificate.
But he was (and certainly is) a very thoughtful, intelligent and spiritual man who protested the Vietnam war and marched for civil rights
Do you think I turned that side of me off when I became a Republican? I think some of you did. But I& #39;m not you. I& #39;m me. And I refuse to be anything but me. And if that bothers you then I never mattered to you in the first place.
*end*
