I'm Losing My Mind But This Time It's Funny

straight up saw someone referring to things like Heartstopper and Love, Simon as "tame and sterile queer media" and its like. im sorry but perhaps the soft queer media aimed at teens doesnt need to have sex and gore in it. like i will be the first to criticize the idea that teen media can be overly censored but you need to look at the fucking genre. are straight romcoms tame and sterile bc the girl with glasses thats going to have a makeover in the second act isnt getting fingered on screen. get a grip

and moreover the idea that those shows/movies are just unrealistic sap when they also deal with homophobia and mental illness just in a more hopeful way that doesnt get too dark with it because again its meant to be for a wider teenage audience is frankly ridiculous. im sorry if your dark and sophisticated tastes arent getting satisfied by the fun media made for teens but perhaps you should seek out shows made for your demographic. i do understand that those are also in short supply but thats not the fault of the queer teens who are seeing themselves on screen in a hopeful way for the first fucking time.

you'll get the urge as an artist or a writer to say out loud the things you're worried about "the proportions are off" "kind of out of character" "i'm not good at summaries" "didn't get as much detail as i wanted" "i made a mistake and here's how" and that's the self-conscious part of your brain telling you "it's bad and if you don't tell them you know it's bad then they'll think you're stupid" but you've got to ignore that little voice and pretend you think it's good or else that little voice is going to ruin your life

not just atheist but anti-theist. a divine being descends to earth and im in the background booing

god isn't real but if it was, we'd be obligated to imprison it for crimes against humanity

i mean.......you know my vote ;)

What are you reading rn, why are you reading it, and what format are you reading it in (physical book, ereader, on your phone etc)

bagels for breakfast bagels for lunch toasting them good so they have a nice crunch. bagels in the morning bagel in the afternoon bagel big and round got me howling at the moon

i love when women have a deeper or raspier voice. its very charming
