i really hate coming out but still want my extended family to know, so my mother took it upon herself to invent the game “guess which one of my kids is gay.”
the rules are simple.
sit down with uncle so-and-so
he says something about gay people in passing
my mom says “there’s a gay person at this table right now. guess which of my kids it is!
he looks frantically between the three of us trying to figure out if she’s joking or not and trying desperately not to offend anyone but also she won’t continue with the conversation unless he makes a guess so he has to make a guess
iwtv writers room: so our mission statement is ‘memory is a monster’, which is a poignant examination of the lies we tell ourselves to sooth our own guilt or absolve the guilt of others. of what can be lost in translation after decades and centuries, and what truth even means when only one or two deadly immortals are still alive to tell the tale.
y’all’s goofy asses: yah louis lied about his domestic abuse 😘 because my perfect white boy lestat would never 😭 and daniel hallucinated his entire first wife and child 😳 because there’s no way there’s more nuance to this situation 🤪 and why give characters flaws and autonomy when armand the Scary Mind Control man 😈could just say ‘it’s mind control time’ and start mind controlling all over the place 😱
and btw these theories are somehow always about which old man is fucking 👉👈 and not claudia, who’s entire Thing is how she’s robbed of autonomy even in death because of louis’ willful ignorance and armand’s obfuscation 🤷♀️
not to be insensitive but some of the salem witch trials were so funny bitches like “i saw her at the devils sacrament!!!” girl… what were YOU doing at the devils sacrament 👀
the phrase ‘this is my first time being alive’ has done wonders for me recently. Yeah, I don’t know how to navigate this situation! It’s brand new to me and I’m learning on the fly, aren’t humans such wonderfully adaptive creatures?
