treat people with kindness

i’m literally 30 and these past two days i’ve been commuting to work while listening to the damn video on repeat.

Take Me Back To 2009 - Pumpkin Edition. The Phumpkins, if you will.

having a soft little moment here btw.. if u even care.... but man, their happiness! bursting out of them like that!!! dan's first time fully acknowledging his big crush on phil back in 2009 and them being so giggly and joyful about it. just one of the many perfect little moments of the past week.

to know that, in the end, the world could not take that from them and they came back so much stronger after all this hardship. sixteen years of never being able to talk about the most important person in your life with full sincerity and having to make your love seem smaller, easily digestible for the masses, keep it tightly sealed.

and to now see them laugh and boast and joke and talk about their love with so much openness and bliss fills me with a warmth i can't even begin to describe. i've seen many people say this and it's so true: this is queer joy persisting and thriving and it's so beautiful to see.
