#but it was all ‘i have a sister whos gay’ and ‘im not gay but—‘

youtube
disappears off the face of the earth and reappears just to say hey have you guys seen this show?
#you guys should watch this show#lidia poët on netflix it's so delightful#usually like faux feminist historical shows really grate on my nerves but this one was genuinely a good time#maybe because it's funny#or the relationships are all really delightful between the eponymous lidia poët and everyone around her#or maybe im just gay#i wont deny it plays a role#the OUTFITS#also i think theres this like needle to thread is that the idiom when you make a story about like a real life woman who faced sexism#bc like you need conflict to have a story but sometimes that leads to the woman in question just constantly being beaten down#you know what i mean?#sometimes it feels like that#but i think this one does it well#i think bc like lidia faces all the sexism every time she steps out of the house#and also inside the house from her brother and sister in law#but she also has people - men - who love and support her..........disobedience#i think thats well balanced i think thats why it works#also shes just great#funny and obstinate but also kind#theres one moment i wanted to put in the video but couldnt find the right place for#actually two#one where shes talking abt a client to her brother and shes like 'shes an anarchist and a bit of a bitch but shes also innocent' fghjkgh#another time shes talking to her niece abt her crush lorenzo and shes like 'you can tell me. as a lawyer i offer confidentiality'#and her niece is like 'technically youre not a lawyer anymore'#and lidia is like '......bitch. theres nothing wrong with liking him you know'#it's just really cute hgkghh i love the relationships she has with literally everyone in her life#if you wanna watch it for like the lawyer thing you can skip it theres no lawyering being done really#because shes not allowed in court rip#shes more like a bit of a sherlock holmes#you know like the american one with the female watson whats it called.........elementary

I think the thing bout me and my own OCs is that I'm like, a stranger to em with my own preconceived perception on how they are but the longer I spend time with em, they turn out completely different so even if I'm the creator, I can't even tell if my ideas are final until I look at it again and the OC in question just goes: I would not say that.

my godmum who actively supports jk rowling on facebook bringing up radical feminism as an excuse for transphobia: i just think if we're speaking BIOLOGICALLY-
me who did my a-level coursework on the oppression of women and now has a bank of information about simone de beauvoir: im about to rock your world
#basically my godmum is your stereotypically thick local who thinks intellectual debating = who can speak the loudest#lucky for you babygirl i did dance for 7 years and now i waitress and my mum has undiagnosed anger issues! lets tussle!#her: BIOLOGICALLY-#me very calmly: the very basis of feminism was to elevate women from just being lessened to their biology feminists have been fighting#biological essentialism for CENTURIES now i mean just look at simone de beauviour's theories like if you think this is radical feminism#to fight against very old feminist theories and shit on trans people then i PROMISE you there is nothing radical about that#saying all this knowing full well my godmum short circuits at any form of calm-speaking-well-sourced-debate and has no fucking clue#who simone de beauvoir is#my mum does though bc she did a LOT of her studies around feminism and she literally went 🤭🤭🤭#which i thought was progress bc usually it's my MUM i have these little run-ins with#although when my godmum left me and my mum were stood in the kitchen and my sister was upstairs but could very much hear#and we were talking about some political thing or another and my mum went#'i wonder what [godmum's name] would think as someone properly gay'#and i missed it at first but then i was like? PROPERLY? and i couldnt be like 'is that a dig at me'#bc im not out to my sister and she defo would've heard from upstairs#but i was like oh okay we're back to this now that solidarity was fun while it lasted ig#anyway this is all to say i had to sit there while my lesbian godmum tried (and failed) to be transphobic#all the while my ally sister got all passionate and pro-trans even though i know full well she's actually worse than my mum#and it's always me having to argue with BOTH of them AT THE SAME TIME about any sort of gay topic#bc my sister in particular CANNOT behave herself and seems to think it's quirky to have niche opinions#even though 'making life difficult for trans people' is not at all niche or radical#it was so frustrating bc i was like yeah im grateful we're on the same side against my godmum rn but i KNOW how full of shit you are#it was moreso like she was doing it to be politically correct and i was like yeah but in the safety of your home when you think#you can just say anything you do NOT have this energy lmao#just annoying especially being closeted and just having to take it#at least i embarrassed my godmum lol got her stuttering and shit by the end <333

That whole James somerton thing has been real interesting to me because I had never seen his "work" but I do find it baffling that anyone could listen to a white guy claim lesbians faced basically no backlash for their sexuality and that straight women have no idea what it was like to be treated as objects or a "purse" as he put it on account of that certainly isnt a White Gay man Only event. In fact women have several words for the way they're views as objects for men's pleasure, not that somerton would know anything about that in part because he never did any actual reading during his "research." But it does hearten me to know if I had come across his "work" I would have clocked it as shit because I know more about the subjects he talks about than he does and anyone who has no idea how shit lesbians were treated has no business speaking up on queer politics, especially when they're just going to use misogyny to play the victim like an instrument.
Hilarious that within 3 days of hbombs vid he bagged himself up and took himself out to the curb to be collected by the garbage people by nuking his entire channel though, that's very funny. (I mention a case about Little Sisters Bookstore in the tags, turns out I got the name right, that's what the link below is if you'd like to read Canada's supreme Courts website on the case!)

inflicted a book buying ban on myself because i Have A Problem and after a few months going strong i must say i underestimated how good it'd feel to slowly make my way through my backlog. gonna extend the ban until april, because i know i'll want to get a few things around my birthday, and i'll resume it again after that. but im really glad i made this choice. i will be a reader first and foremost and a book buyer second!!!

can’t tell if i’m confusing wanting to look like almost stereotypically macho men or just being wildly attracted to them. or both i guess
#i mean i always used to say bi dilemma but im realizing this is mostly just gay now godbless. trans rights#for context. im thinking like. young harrison ford (i Know.; the reason im saying this is i remember Both my mom and dad acknowledging him#as the og Macho Man™️) and because it crossed my dash. jackles. but not really young jackles like s1 dean but matured jackles like more rece#it’s funny cause in practice. the person ive been pursuing (while Also an idiot. maybe i should just accept myself as morosexual at this#point) is actually. very effeminate HAHAHDHAHSJDHSJ#to the extent that my mom has thought he was gay in the past. i was talking about him to my sister and she asked if he was gay LMAO#which is hilarious because as far as i know (and ive known him for… almost 6 years ig? pined for almost 5). i’m Only aware that hes had a#crush on a girl ages ago. but this was also thru a secondhand source we’ve never actually talked about that#we probably should but we’re both idiots i have no idea how it’d be brought up#but in terms of effeminate. hm. he’s actually Really tall maybe over 6ft? and he Can have a deep voice. i think he can sing bass? but he#actually speaks in a higher register. god i wonder if he’s doing the opposite of me. who’s always consciously deepend my voice LMAO#he’s a HUGE plant enthusiast. HUGE. i dont Think he’s ND (or at least he doesn’t from what i can tell. I get vibes) but he straight up has a#plant fixation. knows so much about care. when he worked in greenhouses he learned the latin names for a good portion of them. i know this#isnt exactly ‘effeminate’ but he does all the gardening. oh and to add to it ig. i dont know HOW. he was NOT. irked by gore and blood???#when i explained to him what my potential job as a crime scene cleaner could entail??? but he cannot STAND bugs. he FREAJED OUT (over text)#at the mention of a spider. so of course. me being the 8yo boy with a playground crush. proceeded to tell him all my Fun Spider Encounters#lets see i think he also really loves to bake? ive seen these elaborate cakes (tp roll for covid. a fish) he’s made on insta. and there was#that one time he brought me those three most MOIST chocolate cupcakes with raspberry buttercream icing. i deadass ASCENDED to heaven.#food IS the way to a man’s heart btw.#oh yeah and the fact that i met him in the first place — well. i play oboe in ensembles. and he’s flute/piccolo. yeaHAHSHAHSHH#LMAO remembering that while he doesnt keysmash (i’ve started to around him. it’s mostly emojis bless his heart) he deadass called me ‘hun’#oh and the best part? i couldnt think kf what to watch. and he’s over here saying he doesnt watch ANYTHING. like bro how do u NOT. listen to#any music past 1900. OR OPERA EITHER. and NOT have any favorite movies/shows??? wh??? like. he deadass was like ‘unless [gardening channel#on youtube] counts’ like girl i am so in love#but yeah i was literally sitting there sounding like a pretentious film nerd bro i cant fuckin believe it. but i FINALLY wriggle it out of#him. because apparently he cant concentrate on most movies (valid.). the ones he CAN are cheesy chick flick comedies#saying that he can recite 90% of mean girls. thats his favorite movie#and he also mentioned like. legally blonde#and i have a feeling he almost was avoiding it in case i would judge him or whatever but ngl i honestly fell harder HAHSHSJAJDJAJ#fuck 30 tags but let’s just say. very effeminate compared to me. a full on Dad
