## Mission

Share goofiness in regards to LGBTQ labels, then have a follow up tweet to define the label. Also have a "this day in queer history" set of tweets

![Screenshot of tweets: "today's queerness is a high af genderqueer Sega" "today's queerness is a biromatic flannel shirt" "today's queerness is a blobby demigirl N64"](https://repository-images.githubusercontent.com/294564715/007d7100-f804-11ea-88b4-d5cc00092fcb)

## Contributing

If you would like to contribute, feel free to make a pull request.

First time? I suggest starting with adding some nouns to `tweet_adjectives.py`. Check out [issue #4 to add adjectives](https://github.com/VickiLanger/Queer-of-the-day-bot/issues/4) for more details.

If you need more of a step-by-step, skim through [this article about making your first contribution](https://dev.to/vickilanger/open-up-to-open-source-contributing-5hla).

This project is intended to be a safe, welcoming space for collaboration, and contributors are expected to adhere to the [Contributor Covenant](http://contributor-covenant.org/) code of conduct.

## Reference Stuff

- [Tweepy Docs](http://www.tweepy.org/) - An easy-to-use Python library for accessing the Twitter API.

- [Twitter Rules](https://support.twitter.com/articles/76915)

- [This tutorial was super helpful](https://dev.to/emcain/how-to-set-up-a-twitter-bot-with-python-and-heroku-1n39)

## Why are you doing it like this?

I could streamline this bot a lot by using [Wordnik API](https://developer.wordnik.com/) or [txt files as input](https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/inputoutput.html#reading-and-writing-files). However, one of the goals of this bot is to help Code Newbies get their first open source contributions. I want people to have the chance to make simple changes while actually learning the process of how git is working.
