AH IM OBSESSED

I've seen this clip many times, but never really appreciated the power of "what was her problem?" Just casually assuming that lesbians come in a wide variety of shapes and being inclusive. As a transbian who is probably still closer to Homer shaped than to my ideal, that's huge!

The best bit about the Spanish version is that Homer doesn't even recognize it's a lesbian bar, he just says "this bar doesn't have an emergency exit!"

I don't think we should discourage the idea, because a lot of them have been taught to aim for that. and if I've learned anything, humans are stubborn bastards that when told not to do something, will do it anyway out of spite, curiosity, or simply because they forgot you told them not to. I feel like we should systemically encourage them to be financially stable on their own to buy the things they need or want without having to ask someone permission or for a favor. putting this idea in their head will naturally discourage them from losing their financial independence. the funny thing about society requiring people to run double incomes to afford single bedroom housing (such a blight upon america's economy...) is that it's encouraging these behaviors I mentioned. as far as I've seen, anyway. women are more employed than ever simply because you need two incomes to own one house. though take that with a grain of sand considering I've never done conscious research, just noticed a trend in both conversation, media, and the ratio of men to women in specific resteraunts and grocery stores. adressing the problem directly has almost never worked in any given scenario regarding the entirety of human society. this is why the government has to manipulate us with propaganda. because telling us to sign up for a draft or asking nicely for us to pay more taxes so we can support our political allies directly has never gone well and probably never will.

someone from 1997 wished me good luck. it’s like someone from so many years back knows your struggles and i just, i think i’m gonna cry
