    First, holy shit she does not look 56. Second:

    “It’s kind of odd that the thing I get celebrated for the most - people are always like, ‘Wow, you’re a woman and you’re gay’ - are the two things I put the - least work into.”

    I love this quote

    wait wait wait, in the US firefighters are appointed by politicians?

    Why is everything over there politically? Why the fuck are judges appointed by a president?

      My favorite is that the coroner is often voted in. How does politics even remotely factor in to their jobs?

    It’s good to know that literally every fire from now on will be “because they’re gay”, as though there have never been fires before 🙄
