If It’s Not Gay I’m Not Going

If you see this you’re legally obligated to reblog and tag with the book you’re currently reading

#it’s so so important to remember that representation is not one-size-fits-all#what is empowering to one person might be exhausting and oppressive to someone else#some people need stories about having the strength to save themselves#some people need stories about being considered worthy of being saved#some people need inspiration for their independence while others need validation that they don’t have to be able to do everything themselves#before you lash out against something PLEASE stop to consider:#is this inadequate and/or damaging representation?#or is it just something I don’t personally relate to? [X]

It’s been half a decade and I still haven’t found an articulation of the complexity of “representation” as concisely and precisely mindblowing as @hungrylikethewolfie’s here.

This is actually super cool from a media preservation stand point!!

bbc merlin has a lot of faults but i do think the way they blithely ignored the existence of christianity was very funny of them

"#'old religion' they said. and then simply said nothing of a new religion" yeah Uther Pendragon, noted athiest. Entirely agnostic court. It's crazy that there's no belief system backing anything up. Like, we're going to get by on vague prophecies but also prophecies are magic which is evil. Divine right of kings but no divinity. Mirrors and mirrors but no windows.

when a moot changes their pfp i feel like a baby whose dad shaved his beard

you have to be careful reading too many things that are good/smart/well-written bc then you encounter something that isnt and you get confused like ? why didnt they just make this good ? were they stupid

Every pride, you must reblog this. No exceptions

I love that four different people on my feed scheduled this joyous person to reblog by 8am on June 1. I look forward to seeing this a dozen more times today.

[video description: mark kanemura lip-syncing and dancing along carly rae jepsen’s cut to the feeling, the chorus just starting im the video. he is wearing nothing but rainbow briefs, a rainbow flag wrapped around his hips, and a rainbow scarf hanging from his neck, while on his head multiple bob-length, colored wigs are stacked, which he plucks off along to the beat and throws off-screen towards the camera. every wig is colored in the scheme of the pride rainbow; the final bob-length wig he dramatically removes with the scarf, revealing a longer wig underneath thats in a rainbow gradient. pulling out a fan and opening it with a snap, he fans himself, then throws that away too, then grabs the last wig and shakes confetti out of it on top of his head. he throws the wig at the camera, and the video ends /end description]
