Right-wing AGs threaten retailer that Pride Month merch might have broken child protection laws I was shopping at my local Kroger — something I do at least once a week — and all of their Pride merchandise was on clearance.
T-shirts were $1.80, rainbow garden flags $2. They had a shopping cart overflowing with it all. Honestly, I doubt they sold any of it during June.
There was never a display, just a pile of gray and black t-shirts on a shelf. The only reason I found the shirts during actual Pride Month at all was because there was a display of Pride Skittles above them. (You know Pride Skittles — when they make all of the candies this wan gray color because they’re letting LGBTQ artists use the rainbow to make art for the Skittles bags.
It’s weird to me that this lasted past the first year. Pride Skittles are the saddest Skittles. It’s like a Skittles mausoleum.
