"My whole life, this is what I've wanted. A best friend. Someone who gets me, who accepts me. Someone who fights like hell to get me to see that they love me. Someone who lets me love them back. Someone who's so goddamn beautiful, she makes my toes curl. Someone who calls me on my bullshit. Someone who makes me laugh. Someone who makes me look at her like this and looks at me the same way. Someone who... who's my home."

Decency is freedom from corporate subordination and right wing fascism.

Nothing fills me with rage quite like seeing "no overnight visitors" on an apartment advertisement, like, who the fuck do these random landlords think they are, to deny someone the ability to host a friend or a sibling for the night, to even feel comfortable dictating the terms of a paying tenant's sex life, like seriously fuck off all the way to hell

i once took some excellent photos of the moon on an unusually crisp & clear evening, and that very night my slumbers were hounded by visions of a dark forest, filled with trees that came alive to chase and consume me. and in the morning all i could think was ‘well FUCK the greeks tried to warn me’

DC comics really wants to thread the line between “Batman is an urban legend” and “Batman is the world-famous founder of the Justice League” so like what if they did both

Batman is an urban legend and nobody believes he really exists, except he also founded the Justice League and they all talk about him all the time. He never shows up to any of their events and he’s never caught on camera, so the news comes to the completely reasonable conclusion that the entire Justice League has an imaginary friend.

the thing is that when well-meaning cis people ask "what are your preferred pronouns" they never offer their own pronouns in exchange, and they don't ask anyone who isn't visibly gender nonconforming. Instead of "normalizing" sharing pronouns, what this actually does is train cis people to 1) look for and 2) single out trans people in public in order to perform allyship in a way that is mostly self gratifying. and then they'll still misgender you
