Queer Things

i'm a lover not a fighter i'm a hater not a dater

Not sure if it's intended, but now I'm having thoughts about "red strings of fate", and how they miss Ryland, going under him; the strings that do go to him are white, medical, life support. There's a whole crew of people trying to keep him alive, literally surrounding him, but he's asleep and doesn't get to talk to them or know that they're there.

Fuck amatonormativity. Be your own dead wife

sorry y'all but I think Not Dating kind of rules actually. I well and truly can in fact do whatever I want forever

funniest response you can give to someone telling you they love you: "skill issue"

Referring to someone as your “partner” sounds as if you are deliberately obscuring their gender and may subtly out you. “My ex”, however, is entirely unobtrusively gender-neutral. #breakupallrelationships

I live a very balanced life of noticing things nobody else does and not noticing the things that literally everybody notices

loveless aromantic/aplatonic magical girl who uses the power of incandescent rage instead of the power of love or friendship is this anything

i am SO down for this. indie animators are you listening

god im reading a text about romance fiction (especially targeted at young adults) for class and one sentence in it literally made my brain explode because ive been thinking about this kind of stuff too, how “Many people wouldn’t fall in love if they’ve never heard about it before.” and like…imagine there was no ideal/overaccentuated image of love and romance painted in postmodern mass media….how would we love? would it be purer? more authentic? what would we do differently? would we fall in love at all if we werent constantly being fed an ideal concept of love as the norm in mass media? like what is a natural process of human feelings and what is just a projection of how we want to love and want to be loved based on what we’ve seen on tv and read in books etc? in this essay i will

w … wh … where’s the rest of the essay, op? 

Sorry, my what? My pronouns? Oh, yeah I'm between genders at the moment. No, it's cool, I quit my last gender a little while ago because it really wasn't working out. I don't know if I even have a dream gender anymore.

Oh yeah, it did come with benefits, but they weren't really worth it. The culture was really toxic. To be honest I think I'd prefer a part-time gender so I can just be self-described in my spare time.

I mean, in a perfect world we wouldn't need gender, you know? We could just voluntarily be perceived as much as we're able, as much as makes us feel fulfilled. Having a full-time gender shouldn't be a prerequisite for food, shelter, and healthcare.
