We don’t talk enough about how hard body love/neutrality is when you’re chronically ill because how am I supposed to be like “my body is okay/good because it is my body” when it is actively defective and causing me decreased quality of life 😀
no but why is netflix allergic to letting queer women just be central in shows? unless it’s sideshow rep or solely for the male gaze it can’t slide apparently! like i loved the wlw rep in heartstopper (i love alice oseman in general) but WHAT is so wrong with letting queer women have the focus in stories?? plus whenever a wlw show has actually made it past the first season, the rep is NEVER intersectional bc disabled queer women and queer women of colour don’t exist i guess. i’m not shocked bc there’s literally zero disabled rep in heteronormative media anyway (let alone disabled rep that centralises a disabled character) but yknow. would be cool to even have 1 season with a sapphic disabled mc lol. i was starting to have hope for rep for sapphic poc but now with first kill (where the main character is a black lesbian) getting cancelled by netflix after 1 season despite statistically doing as well with viewers as heartstopper i’m just. i’m so disheartened. it’s so blatantly obvious that streaming services give zero shits about sapphic rep — they don’t want their sapphic shows to do well (which is so so rooted in misogyny and patriarchal bullshit) and they’re so bitter when viewers DO go crazy for sapphic main characters that they say fuck it and cancel the show altogether.
Imma be honest I HATED the housewardens of the chapter I was dealing with them kfbskfjd then when I finished the chapter I was like “ok- maybe Riddle isn’t THATA BAD”

i’ve heard a lot of people say “don’t reach out to your friends first and see how many people will remain in your life. those are your true friends” and i get it. it sucks and it’s tiring constantly being the one to message first, to initiate hang outs but don’t take this so literally. some friendships require initiation. i have lost touch with so many people who genuinely cared about me and wanted me in their life because i stopped reaching out. it’s a hard pill to swallow but honestly some people just suck at it and it doesn’t mean they don’t love and value you. i’ve reconnected with some people over the past few months and it’s crazy how genuinely happy they are to see me and how engaged they are in the conversation. i just think sometimes we’re too harsh on each other & too quick to emphasize other peoples flaws and remove them from our lives but then we’ll all be alone and what’s the point of life then!!!!
