saw my life flash before my eyes tbh corinthian you're on thin fucking ice
Considering they position themselves as the guardians of Britishness, it has been so weird seeing conservatives here in the U.K. adopting the US’s anti-drag narrative, especially the idea drag is inappropriate for kids. Like, this is something every british child went to see as a school trip each Christmas:
And these are considered our best TV shows/TV stars, who I watched all the time as a child in the 90s:
The most Monty Python sketch that SNL ever did. Hosted by Eric Idle in Season 2, controversial at the time.
It was aired in 1976 and contained:
✔️ Men in drag
✔️ Absurdity
✔️ Switching from video to film and back
✔️ 4th Wall Breaking
✔️ Abrupt ending
In the DRAGNET sketch all the cops were in drag, notably Eric Idle and Dan Aykroyd, until John Belushi breaks the scene to point out that "drag doesn't work in America". They give up on the scene and cut to a short film, which picks up with a drag race between Idle and Aykroyd both running in drag.
can someone please explain to me why I can't work out where I am on the ace spectrum from one day to the next and can happily go without wanting sex for years but clever funny hot women cariacaturing ridiculous men is distractingly attractive and erodes my ability to focus on anything else?
I just rewatched Life of Brian and I was thinking the Monty Pythons actually did quite a lot for LGBTQIA+ people. Yes, it hasn't aged perfectly but they did make contributions to normalising cross-dressing and subverting gender-roles. In a lot of ways they were well ahead of their time.
Take Loretta (played by Eric Idle), the trans woman in the people's front of Judea in the life of brian. Her first appearance shows her coming out to the other members of the resistance, who ridicule her desire to have children but don't actually ridicule her identity, and quickly begin using her preferred name.
Like I said, it's obviously not perfect and they still showed a lot of ignorance, but considering the time period I'm quite impressed.
"so i almost touched their goalie—" "bro almost touched our goalie"
you can imagine the chaos that ensues because lauko gives bob a tiny little bump because love thy goalie any discomfort or threat to bobbino shall be punishable by death
also congrats to erod for being the most unbothered man in the world getting a whole lauko glove in the face and doing nothing about it but react like a clown bop bag
