This Pride Month
sometimes its best to humble yourself,
and to constantly remember where you came from
*long ass pause(this isn't new)*

HEY SqUiRrElS
This video is sponsored by Hollister!
Oh y'all not used to seeing me in a hat?
Me neither.
This season, Hollister has come out with both their Summer Solstice and Pride 2019 collection.
And for this pride season Hollister is collaborating with the Gay, Lesbian, and Straight Education Network
Or as I call them GLSEN (pronounced like glisten)
To produce limited edition pride merchandise.
From cute little rainbow tanks and t-shirts that say
YAASSSSS
to other rainbow shorts, with portions of the sales going to GLSEN
to support their journey to provide a safe environment and proper education for LGBT students.
VERY important.
LGBT education is something that NEEDS to be happening in public schools.
And also providing a safer environment for many of these kids to feel comfortable
in discovering who they truly are.
So you can support a great cause by also buying some cute little shirts
to make yourself look cute at your up and coming pride festival.
Pride to me is very important
It's a great moment for people to find other people that are living their full absolute truth
to help them feel comfortable and to living their own
There's still parts in America and other parts of the world
where people don't fully feel comfortable to express themselves or be their true self
and I feel like this month and these events help these people realize they're not alone
in how they feel, and definitely not alone in who they are.
Also a portion of the money I'm getting from this sponsorship I'm sending back to GLSEN and The Trevor Project
Forgot to mention that earlier.
Now I live in LA and so we have one of the biggest pride festivals in the country
Not THE biggest, I don't think so, but definitely one of the biggest.
My first pride was about like... Two years ago??
I'm not even sure.
You don't realize how much of yourself you're holding back
Until you go to a pride festival where you're literally surrounded by a bunch of people
being 110% themselves.
You stick out for NOT being yourself.
It's easier to tell when someone's holding themselves back
than just being themselves at pride.
And that's a very, like, rare thing to find, especially, like, in this world.
If you never been to a pride festival and you're in a position where you CAN go
CHECK IT OUT YA KNOW
Bring water

Pride month is not only just a time to celebrate who you are
but also a great time to commemorate the people that have made gigantic strides in this world
being 100% who they are.
People that have inspired you to push past your boundaries
to become a generally better you.
And speaking of which

As I was saying before, this is pride month.
And to kick off my month of pride
I decided, it is now my best ability to utilize my

To try to get more

*gay smile*
Today I'm drawing Ellen DeGeneres as an attempt to get money, okay?
Ellen DeGeneres is probably one of the most successful queer women out there in the world today.
She has the most longest running talk shows
And the most money in her bank account.
*small pause* ...that any gay has ever seen.
In a time of finding out who i was...
seeing Ellen DeGeneres thrive
gratefully be 100% of who she is
really inspired me to pursue a life and a career path
of what I wanted
and without hiding any percent of me whatsoever
so to commemorate her success..
I am going to...(Mac regrets his life choices)
pROBably make her hate me
let's be honest
LET'S BE HONEST-
*y e e y e e*
Today I'm going to be drawing Ellen DeGeneres

Now excuse me while I open up this canvas
to begin my art journey
*mac trying to be a functioning human and open a plastic wrapped canvas... but failing miserably*
and tHERE WE GO!
*plastic wrap "ASMR"*

Heads Up, Ellen!
cause here comes some ART!
*gay silence™*
:3
That was also a joke, 'cause she made the game "Heads Up".
*awkward gay silence*

Before I start, I shall look at a picture of Ellen Degeneres for 10 whole seconds.
okAy.

[attempt at ASMR]
bEAuTiFuL.
Now I'm going to do what every logical artist does
I'm going to draw with Sharpie
I know what you're probably thinking
Mac, no logical artist does that
[whisper shouts] SHUT UP!
Are you an artist? Do you know these things? ( y e s )
If you said yes....
Hey girl
Should I give you guys some quick Ellen facts before I start?
Did you know that in 2005 Ellen DeGeneres...
*silence*
had blonde hair?
And guess what? She still has it today!
Woah!
*Loudly* Mind blowing!
*back to quiet* First thing's first
I'm going to draw the head...
in pencil because even though...
I might be a (The UwU is silence)
I'm not a
*Silence*
I'm really hungry, can you tell?
*light pencil scratching*
D E L I C I O U S
And just as I thought...
*Gay silence*

I am going to trace over...
whatever I just drew
with a sharpie.
Here we go! Are you ready?
*sharpie noises*
HOT
Next I'm going to attempt to draw her eyes
*distorted song that I can't make out*
Yummy!
DeGeneres-ly beautiful
Please give me money Ellen
The nOsE
*Oh it's the distorted Hannah Montana transition song again*
*whisper* Yeah
*normal* Yeah, that's Ellen. That's Ellen for sure, right?
Did you hear her right now?
*as Ellen* Ooooo I'm- I'm gonna give you a million dollars cause I'm Ellen!
*as himself* Thank you Ellen. That's all I needed in life.
*distorted Hannah Montana*
Yeah! Yeah!
*Loudly and high pitched, slightly British* There's Ellen!
*Mac attempting to draw Ellen's eyebrows*
She doesn't have much eyebrows, that's all I remember. But I bet you you're wondering
"Mac! This is not even close to Ellen"
And I say to that "Shut the H-" (silence)
'Cause we haven't done the hair yet. *Loud Mac* DUH!
*Mac again attempting at ASMR with pencils*
*Still pencil ASMR*
(Mac, u done?)
Found one! *whisper voice again* (distorted, possibly Hannah Montana music)
(Silence)
That's Ellen, (loud Mac) That's ELLEENN!
You can't tell me anythiNGG-! *More quiet Mac* I'm sorry,
I'm sorry!
All I remember is that her hair does a "this" thing.
