have had multiple conversations with real life lesbians who are not fandom people in the slightest, who have watched heated rivalry and had it take over their whole lives and brains, and they’re like “oh my god i don’t know what’s wrong with me is this a mental health crisis?? like i’ve never felt this way” like they’re actually slightly freaked out. and there’s no easy or non-condescending way to communicate that yeah no you’re fine. that’s just what yaoi fandom bullshit is like. it’s like trying sugar for the first time or something. welcome to the party

Loving this!

Look, I'm thrilled that the MM romance genre is getting such a glow up right now but I am NOT thrilled to see a thousand thinkpieces and podcast "deep dives" into This Phenomenon Of Women Liking Gay Romance, or even less interesting Hey There's Gay Romance That Exists like bruh, we've been over this and over this and y'all acting like you're uncovering new and uncharted media consumption ground is boring AF.

someone put that man behind the wheel of a forklift before i do it myself

Come do slashy stuff with us in October!

After seeing the love action movie I might need to rewatch this

I can't say I don't relate to this list

Jurassic Park is so quality like the little girl is the hacker, the main woman is sensibly dressed & smart & allowed to have agency w/o people being like “no women can’t do that thing”, and Jeff Goldblum is the one who’s shirt is sexily open & who’s injury causes him to lie in a strategic model pose to his best advantage. Plus of course the cgi & robotics are incredible

I never thought of it this way but it is so true.
