π₯± Brick
βΊοΈ Brick with built-in sling for maximum control and power
Honestly it just needs a slot for the phone and it becomes fashionable, practical and tactical.
Or, maximum range.
I tend to check social media much less than the average person, so this might be a really dumb question, but...
Why is it a brick? Does it symbolize something? Is it tool? Or a weapon? Or just some form of art?
LGBT history, I believe - the Stonewall Riots were a pivotal event in LGBT awareness and fighting for their rights. As it was a, well, riot, bricks were used, as is common for people spontaneously deciding to fight the power - a sort of "We didn't come here to brawl, but we'll tear up the streets if you want to make it one" energy.
It's rumour that the riot "officially begun" with a brick being thrown too.
And that brick was thrown by a trans woman. That's a definitely fact for sure
Ah, so it's symbolic and artistic. That's cool, I dig the creativity π
Thanks for the explanation.
Actual bricks are rough and crumble a little bit occasionally, you'd probably want to coat that in some epoxy.
Which will make it easier to clean!
That's no brick; it's a universal multi-tool.
To paraphrase, shout proudly and carry a brick.
looks tasty I know it isn't tasty, but it looks tasty
