The Make Love, Not War rally and march took place last night on the streets of Oakland, California, where it is rumored that monsters rampage, tearing up buildings.
But no such sightings were reported yesterday. And, thank St. Valentine, no buildings were ripped asunder. Instead, "Hella Love" banners, solidarity love signs and a fairy princess were de rigueur for the evening's activities.

Enjoy!

And now begins my month-long #WarOnGlitter, where I attempt to decontaminate myself from all that sparkly shit I was exposed to last night.
