ill never understand why people rebut "its fucked up that cavetown was forced out of the closet" with "if you didn't know he was a trans man you weren't paying attention to his music" like, him making art about his identity doesnt give you, the listener, any right to make it public for him?? his coming out to his community should have been on his own terms, he was clearly uncomfortable with being viewed as a "trans artist" and most of his early community respected that. and dont even get me started on "he shouldnt have used the t-slur if he wasnt ready to come out" that tumblr post was years old, as in way before he had a massive following, possibly before he had any following at all! how would you feel if someone dug through your old blog and make out come out with sensitive information to hundreds of thousands of people, some of whom already hate you, to prove youre not transphobic?? how would you feel??

people are willing to watch the same movie about a heterosexual couple over and over and over again year by year ever since the first romantic “movie” came out in 1890, but god forbid they make another wlw period drama in the same year “i-think-it’s-gonna-suck-cuz-it’s-so-similar-to-poalof” WHAT THE FUCK

A quick update…
