don't expect consistency from me or my blog

Every topic is related if you’re autistic enough

you have to consciously unlearn racism and continue to watch for it because it will come out without realizing. because so much of society is structured around it. shrugging and going "i dont care" or "i dont know how else to say it" means you are okay with being racist and hurting other people with how much you dont give a shit about them.

tedependent you're so special to me. what do you mean trent's relationship with ted is a perfect example of a crush that absolutely cannot be acted upon. that his literal job is to dig into people's lives and judge their choices, and he falls for a man who gives people second chances and spends his life covering up his own problems with positivity. what do you mean trent liked ted from the first time they met in the press room, that ted knocked his walls down so profoundly it changed trent's whole career path and behaviour as a person over several years, to the point of quitting his job as a reporter. what do you mean ted made trent feel special and trent made ted feel normal. trent is the epitome of being a person who is "too much" and hides it behind seriousness until it all comes spilling out, and ted is the epitome of being a person who exudes muchness to hide the fact that he's filled up with grief. what do you mean you can see the moments when trent bares his muchness to ted - in the book feedback scene in season 3, trent exposes his whole self to ted and ted responds with vulnerability, but his brand of vulnerability is his depression and his sadness and his unsureness, and that feels like rejection to trent. what the fuck do you mean by that.

Happy pride month to the tiny cowboy and tiny Trojan man from Night at the Museum

happy pride month 2021 I ain’t quittin’ you…

on your what

A conversation I don’t think yall are ready for yet is that you can love a character sooooo much and relate to them and see yourself in them but at the end of the day they’re still fake and that’s why someone else’s take on them or headcanon about them isn’t a direct message about you or insult to your identity. If your identity is so wrapped up in a character that you can’t distinguish between reality and fiction, then you are the problem. Not some random person online who interprets the character differently than you.

this also goes for when you hate a character soooooo much and relate them to every person who hurt you and see everyone you hate in them, at the end of the day they're still fake and someone else's love for them is not a commentary on your trauma

#i also think we should not be using 'i relate to the character' as a claim to authority on the character #just because you relate does not mean your interpretations are law for the rest of us or even correct or 'more accurate' than anyone else's #it just means you relate full stop lmao.
