happy new years my angels!! 2023 wasn’t a bad year by any means but I had moments where I felt lonely + isolated and I’m grateful for every experience, encounter and person I’ve met. But I’m excited to see what ‘24 has. I mainly have each of you to thank because despite drama and all, this is such a beautiful community I’m happy + proud to be a part of. Y’all are so talented, fun and amazing and I’m looking forward to sharing many laughs and memories with y’all! I love each of you so much and hope that you have a wonderful and prosperous year! <33333
(I wanna tag so many of you but I don’t wanna forget anybody so consider this my universal smooch to you all! 🫶🏾🫶🏾)

The prospect of a coming out storyline on one of the most popular shows currently airing on television where a firefighter in his 30s discovers his sexuality is so incredibly important.
Now this is all just a theory as of now, from glimpses into episodes from stills and interviews with Oliver, but the prospect of Buck being queer and this being a season of discovery and self reflection for Buck is a beautiful idea.
A story I always remember from when I was around 13 is how some of my family would speak about a family member of mine, about how they came out in their thirties, and that they had “lied and deceived” them all for years. There was so much negative talk about them coming out at what the family had deemed was “too late” which I always thought was bullshit. I could never understand how they somehow were obvious to how difficult it was for a young person with very strict and arguably “traditional” parents growing up in the 80s/90s to accept that part of themself and feel safe to share it.
I grew up in the 2000s, when this family member was already out and had been for some time. I got a lot of shit from a close member of my family for “coming out too young” being “too young to know”. Years of them simply ignoring the fact I knew who I was, telling people around us that I was “confused” and I “didn’t know” who I was. But for me growing up with that queer member of my family I didn’t really ever have a heteronormative idea of life. I always just thought I’d grow up to love whoever, gender was never even a factor. They were really great to have around when I was a kid, them and their partner would look after me from time to time and it was great. I admire their strength and ability to overcome this stigma to live their life with their partner to the absolute fullest.
For Buck to go on this journey, to open up a part of himself which he may simply have never thought of before or knew existed is telling the story of so many people, people who are often not seen on television. Things that should be normal in our society but on reflection when do we see these story’s that reflect these people actually on television. A story that could make it easier on so many people.
If there is anything I could promise to anyone who isn’t in a space where they can come out, or hopes in the future they may be able to, it would be this.
There is not an age limit on coming out to those that you love and trust. There is no requirement to come out at all. All that you should ever do is live your life to the fullest loving who you are and loving who your heart skips a beat for every time you catch their eye.
Television mirrors our lives, it gives people hope and strength and an understanding that you are not alone in this. That is why it is something people hold on to, and whether this happens or not the idea itself is a great one.

▪︎ Is it just me or do you also have a box which is filled with beautiful memories that includes dried flowers, postcards, pictures, pendant, keyring, some sea shells, handwritten letters and some random things which are very special to you🎀
I have a pair of jhanjar (anklets) & a very tiny Shrimad Bhagwat Geeta in that box which my grandmother gave me and that would be most special thing ever!!!!!!🫀

negl, I love writing but lately, I don’t even feel motivated to post them like that. Between the spam liking and lack of reblogs/comments? But to see my notifs hopping when it’s drama or hate anons? Idk it’s kinda annoying. And I’m not even gone get started on the shadow bans and community label.

I watched the Pinocchio movie today and cried three times. It’s absolutely amazing and one of my top 5 favorite films of all time 😭

Yknow i often think about the eroticism and bliss that would come from forsaking my mortal flesh and becoming machine or if i was assimilated into an esoteric and nebulous state of being
yeah that'd be rad
but every time i think that 'being human sucks' i stop myself and correct myself. being human is pretty awesome. being a humanoid fungal monster of the void would be beautiful and freeing and euphirc but
i often think about that one scene in citizen sleeper
where you're given the option to ascend to that pure digital state or leave it all behind in return for a dying body that constantly sucks or isnt working right. how being able to feel someone squeeze your hand as you woke up back to the land of the living was a reminder. that there is worth in the stupid sucky bodies we have. the taste of stew and the friends you made along the way. that scene made me cry.
anyways my tits are sore but having them fudgin rocks <3
