I'm unironcally glad that people on Tumblr are able to see the hilarity in the whole Bisha kerfuffle (I refuse to put gate on it cus I'm SO sick of everything being a something-gate lol). If I hadn't received a shitton of awfulness over the whole thing on twitter, I'd probably find it funny too. It's an objectively absurd situation.
But like... people tried to gaslight me over that shit every step of the way. First it was "he didn't actually say he was bi, stop putting words in his mouth," and then after The Tweet(tm) it was "how dare you be hurt over being lied to and having your sexuality used as a punchline! Stop hating him for being straight!" Which is truly a wild fucking take in a supposedly queer-friendly space, but okay. And there are probably STILL Misha stans who think I "hate him for being straight." Which is absurd. I don't like him because he's a genocide denialist. If you're going to hate me because of your parasocial daddy figure, at least be accurate about it.
Anyway, I didn't get to heal from the initial hurt of "wow, Misha thinks using my sexuality as a punchline is okay. wtf." Seeing it mentioned still makes me feel... whatever a step below triggered is. Like, there's the initial knee-jerk reaction of anger and going into defense over my own sexuality, but it doesn't *stay* that way. Maybe that will change now that I'm in a less hostile environment. I hope it does.
