not to sound like a queer theory textbook, but i wish there were more options for exploring masculinity within lgbt spaces. i'm bored of "women and nonbinary people" and "femmes and thems" and "no men allowed". i know there's a broad social scene for gay men, but i don't fit into that as i still like girls and i only pass about 30% of the time. i just wish there was a way i could meet other queer and GNC men in a non-sexual setting (i.e. not grindr) and talk with them about things like what masculinity means from their perspective, how they express it, how they relate to other men, and most importantly what brands of razors they use, because i can't keep using shitty plastic disposables forever i just can't

wondering about Frank and insects but specifically about how it looks like the WH insects are highly stylized, so does Frank even know anything about real butteflies/insects?
& if he saw a real one, would he recognize it? are all of the species names he applies to the WH bugs real, or are they all made up like "Vibrant Eyespot" or "Fluttering Heartwing"?
and then there's the question - does the neighborhood have some of the more 'undesirable' bugs like moths, worms, roaches, spiders? does it have bugs outside of the generic groups of beetles and butterflies? like are there mantids? leafbugs? dragonflies? weevils? or are those too specific/complex/not-cute for the Playfellow Workshop to have included?
and then there's the question of what are the bugs? props? puppets? are they alive or do the neighbors just perceive them as such? Do they even exist outside of art, storybooks, and animated segments? I highly doubt they're alive like the neighbors are, since in the gif of Frank's head spinning, the framed butterflies' wings are moving. which is kind of horrifying if you think about it for more than a second.
just... the critters Frank loves so so so much being a complete fabrication... every piece of knowledge he prides himself on / delights in knowing being utterly Untrue... oof

Deep Water Prompt #3114
No vet can agree on whether our cat is pregnant or not. They say it must be Schrodinger's Syndrome, and we need to report it at once to the Bureau of Space Time.

Listen. I will not even remotely begin to pretend that there was or ever will be justification for what Noah has done but the fact that they made this kid issue a full 'apology video' on his most popular platform? Same one one he came out to the world on?
....there is no doubt in my MIND now they are going full Will Byers front and center in S5 now. Using him for promo and the like was too necessary for them to let him be quiet in his foolishness whether or not he changed his actual opinion ☠️

Current thoughts: Human running a stall where they sell knitted items, always leaning back with a neutral face and sunglasses, looking like they’re v emotionless but in reality they’re taking a nap

Playing Stellaris with a friend where I'm running a mycelium hivemind who took over some wolverine-looking shits and pilot them around to reach the stars.
Somewere out there, we ran into some brain slugs. Individualists, which is weird, but they like brains, and we weren't using them, so a symbiotic relationship forms. They do the thinking for us, and we act as an instant telecommunication network.
But now I'm just picturing some poor green humanoid diplomat who's gotten stationed with the Coreward Division of the UNE diplomatic corps.
"Alright, so its some sort of mammalian- wait, no the body is just a vessel. Oh, I guess its the slug on the skulls thats piloting the host. No biggie, I did my thesis on Necrophage Justice"
And the poor sap who drew the short stick to break it to this kid just has to shake their head and explain that
"Actually, its the mycelium"
"The what?"
"See those fungal trails coming off the slug? That's who we're meeting with"
"That's the diplomat."
"Well.. yes. And also the ruler and the military and miners we rely on Zro for."
"But how-"
"And her name is Gorf."
