yo, respectfully, i don't understand why some of yall are so worried about jim and olu kissing other people?
we already got "see, we don't own each other" from lucius & pete in s1, the writers seem comfortable writing not-entirely-monogamous relationships. and like. they both clearly still have feelings for each other, i'm sure they'll be fine my dudes

the thing about the dudebro discussion, the aita post, the willingness to just take at face value any accusations directed at a person you don't know, is that it's all so painfully transparent, it's so obvious that those conversations are happening at this scale specifically because it's about trans women. maybe it's just me, but you generally shouldn't be using certain terms for people unless you know that they are comfortable with them, and if you fucked up then apologize and move on (if we pretend for a second that the majority of dudebros weren't feign ignorance or just actively malicious to begin with). you should be aware that some things don't affect you the same way they affect other people, and you definitely shouldn't be giving those people potentially dangerous advice on topics that you personally aren't familiar with, this is the baseline, at least don't fucking put other people who were misled into trusting you in danger. and if an anon barges into your inbox with some wild accusations then you should stop and think "hey, why are you coming to me anonymously with no evidence to back any of this up, and in such a way that i have to reply to you publicly so more people get to see this" regardless of who it's directed at. like, those are all pretty simple things, or they should be at least, but because the targets are trans women and transmisogyny is so fucking rampant everyone has to bend over backwards to come up with excuses as to why treating trans women this way is perfectly normal and justified.

Simultaneously hilarious and terrifying experience of an email chain slowly devolving in formality. Starts with a salutation and a sign off, two full paragraphs of communication. By the end of the email chain it's just 'great!! Thanks.' sent from my iPhone

Not sure if anyone is gonna care about this as much as I do, but I’m throwing it out into the MMFD Fandom ether here on Tumblr just in case.
So…Let’s discuss: My Mad Fat Diary character Zodiac Signs✨
I’ve done a bit of research (aka rewatching certain episodes lol) and some of their signs are confirmed:
Izzy is a Cancer (her birthday is near/on July 10th according to S1E1 when Rae meets the gang for the first time and Izzy is celebrating her 16th birthday at the pub)
Rae is a Sagittarius (she says this in S1E2)
Archie is an Aries (Rae says this in S1E2)
Chloe is a Scorpio/Sagittarius Cusp (her 17th birthday party in S2E5)
And I have a theories about what Finn and Chop might be but I can't recall if there’s ever been anything confirmed or any proof in the show...does anyone else have thoughts/theories or am I the only one that thinks about these types of things when I'm rewatching the show for the Nth time/reading or writing fanfic lol 🤪

i know i talk about the tree scene a lot (deserved) but another thing i specifically like is that it wasn't a "test" of lwj's feelings. lwj catches him and what changes isn't that wwx believes lwj loves him back, it's just that wwx comes to accept that he, himself, is in love with him
