Any chance they rebrand to queerasfu.ck?

I think queer.fr would be an awesome domain name too

I mentioned on Mastodon the domain name "queersare.us" (parody of Toys R Us I guess) which actually makes use of the United States' ccTLD that barely gets used. Someone pointed out to me exactly why that's the case and it has something to do with scammers.
