Not to be that person, but if Stranger Things ends up with Steve and Nancy getting back together, either Will or Robin dead, no ronance, no steddie, no byler, nothing beyond ‘up to interpretation’ of Will’s sexuality, Mike and El happy together... I don’t know, as a queer person, I will be upset. 

#this is just my opinion but alas #i will still enjoy the show #BUT #if you're queer #you get me #im sure #stranger things #i would love byler but if it doesnt become a canon thing i will be disappointed but not surprised #but these? #yeah #and dont get me wrong #we all know will's gay #but id bet some casual viewers still dont agree #some people need it spelled out #im not actually expecting steddie or ronance but like #the actors are acting very sus #st4 #byler #ronance #steddie

can't believe people are still out here accusing real ass people of queerbaiting. at this point just admit you like forcing people to come out before they're ready because that's what the result of this continues to be. coming out to anyone isn't an obligation for any queer person and people shouldn't have to alter their behavior or personality or presentation just because you personally think they're cishet. that is literally your own personal problem to work on. keep it to yourself

#anyway i can't believe i actually saw - in my pride month - someone accusing onlyoneof of queerbaiting #and using gayness for 'clout' like. 1) if any of them actually came out it would probably end their careers. casually #like why do kpop fans constantly forget that queerness isnt a globally accepted thing #2) the fact that they even do these gay storylines in their mvs is insane to me and they already got so much hate for it #like literally what clout are you talking about. this was honestly a risky thing for them to do #and the only reason it paid off at all is bc they have a pretty big supportive international fan base #but otherwise libido literally could've been the end of it for all of them #3) despite getting straight-up hate instead of pretending like it didnt happen and trying to just move on they doubled down #like idk how ooo of all groups is getting ridiculed by gay people like you are sooo online like #meet a gay person from a different cultural background than yours im begging you #you can't say that gay people have to come out without compromising our autonomy #you literally sound like a homophobe forcing us to be categorized and this is why this mindset is not fucking safe #im talking again

name a line more iconic than "nigel, darling- oh hello- there's been a bit of a spillage" you cant.

#the six idiots just being casually queer all the time will never not shock me #especially in the wake of paul 'that's his boss' simms and his bullshit #like. how easy it can be. #and how committed they are to making their queer characters just as big of freaks as the straight people #like yeah they're two heads sticking out a weird blob and one of them is the oracle #and you literally only see them in one episode #AND they're gay. what of it? #ben willbond queer character count 2 #that weird jester with the little puff balls as debbie walks through the square counts. to me. #wait are we counting vex. bc then it's 3. and it's episode 1 #yonderland

It'd be really funny if Juwan's sexuality is never directly addressed in the main comic, but he casually has a bf in the epilogue and it's nbd

#no home #like. i have no idea where all the mistsken for gay gags are going #but wanan had written bi characters before #and sexualities aren't necessarily relevant to the main themes of no home #so it wouldn't surprise me if it stays an implication/doesn't become a focus in an arc #it'd be cool to see a bi/queer character where coming out isn't a part of their storyline and it's just casually confirmed too #like. enough implications that the reveal won't be jarring but also not centered as a 'major character arc' #bc not all lgbt characters need a coming out story y'know? #no home manhwa

[everysongineverykey]

i love you azura books i love you luz's nerdiness given prominence throughout the show i love you "luzura" i love you amity and luz bonding over a "cringe" book series i love you lumity azura/hecate cosplay i love you young queer couple cosplaying as a queer couple that really inspired them as kids and helped bring them together i love you beautiful tribute to the power of representation in media as shown via a latina girl adoring and being heavily influenced by a book series starring a latina witch who she can see herself in i love you varied and beautiful discussions of representation in a show with heaps and heaps of just that :')

in the same vein, i love you cosmic frontier i love you chief engineer o'bailey-hunter parallels i love you gus captain avery cosplay i love you gus helping hunter confront his identity as a grimwalker by introducing him to a series with a character he can see himself in i love you star trek deep space nine reference i love you black boy cosplaying as a black space captain i love you camila connecting with luz using her own nerdy childhood obsession i love you power of stories and, again, representation in media i love you the owl house's constant message that representation matters i love you i love you💙💙💙💙

#the owl house #listen. i have SOOO many thoughts on the narrative weight of the azura books #and how it's a casual reminder of how important representation is. luz gets to see herself as a witch #fighting evil and saving the day #and this character also has a queer-coded relationship with her female rival #which undoubtedly helps luz as a young bi girl as well!!! #and also cosmic frontier like... it's a bit more of a joke but still #hunter finding comfort and solace in a character going through the same things as him. gus not forcing the grimwalker topic #and instead trying to help hunter come to terms with his identity in a gentler way. AND the captain of the ship in cosmic frontier is black #just like gus. i know rep probably isn't a problem in the boiling isles #since yknow. bigotry-free fantasy world and all #but it definitely is in the human realm! and it's good for gus to get what he can there. yknow? #also the reason i say it's a ds9 reference in particular is just cause i'm a stan. it's an educated guess. #point 1: it features a black captain called avery. ds9 has a black captain played by a man called avery. #point 2: it features a chief engineer called o'bailey. ds9's chief engineer is called o'brien. same kind of irish name. #point 3: it was written in the 90s like how ds9 aired in the 90s :]

My 3 little cousins were baptized today. "Triggered" is kind of a strong word but being in a catholic church again... I'm a little fragile rn ngl.

#butch speaks #it was hard not to shake as i held J over the basin to have the water poured on his head #when he was cleansed of sin. as if a little kid could ever knowly or intentionally offend a so-called loving god #the words came naturally to me #but they meant nothing #i remember when they used to mean something. when i begged gods forgiveness for my sin (being a lesbian) and tried to pray the gay away #i remember how much i wanted to die bc i could never truly embrace the sacred #i STILL deal with the complex of catholic guilt. its a very real thing. its hard to shake #i cant help but wonder if the catholicism ingrained in my brain is why i have a hard time with casual dating n sex #fun fact: there was a point when i was a teen that i got REALLY catholic #i prayed everyday. i talked to my patrin saint (st agnes) every day. i wantsd to become a nun #the thought of marrying a man mad me more sad than feeling like an alien did. so id marry the church as a nun. #not the way to hide being a dyke when ur fam is catholic btw LMAO #the first priest i knew was father joe. i loved that guy. he was so kind. friendly. briming with love. #he was one of my biggest references for what a good person was like #he talked about gods love a lot. how its for everyone. no one is exluded. ever. #he used to look right at me when he said stuff like that. a few other kids too. all of whom grew up to be queer #then father joe passed away. our church merged with another church. father jeff was the priest there. #he was kind but not as kind. he talked about hell and sin more. he looked at the same kids father joe did. #but the kindness in his eyes wasnt there. #that wasnt for us. #my family wasnt even THAT catholic #i went to church every sunday i did vacation bible school and catechism classes and youth group #i was an altar servant and in the choir #i even used to speak/understand a little latin #imagine how much worse id have been if my mom could have afforded catholic school lmao #grateful to have grown up poor in that regard #hm. actually... reading my own tags. mayne we were pretty catholic actually. #fucking hell. #i need to have lesbian sex in a church before god and everyone. mayeb that would fix me.

and her half-sister who’s desperate to find her before she’s arrested for using a fake name, to bring her home to their dying father & save the family business

both get on the bad side of some pirates and have to brave storms to find each other

aroace MC, sister relationships

arc from netgalley, out april 9

#The Final Curse of Ophelia Cray #aroaessidhe 2024 reads #This is ok! I enjoyed it on the surface level but think it could have had a bit more depth and structure #I do always like to see an aroace MC who mentions it casually throughout the story and the central sister relationship #The writing is a little young for me… I think it has this silly/satirical element of the plot and caricature-villains but the prose wasn’t #quite funny enough to make it work....so parts just felt a bit random and undeveloped to me? #I genuinely love a lot of MG and younger YA but this is on the side of writing style #that felt too noticably young for me to enjoy fully (for me - obviously it's for teens! so that's okay!) #It’s quite slow to start (it doesn’t get into it until half way?) and the two storylines felt a bit disconnected. #All the different things happening felt all over the place & I felt the ending was a bit unsatisfying #Betsy’s love interest seemed like a nice interesting boy but it was such instalove I felt like there was no development between them lol #I think it has some fun parts and some good characters! I would still recommend to teens looking for queer piratey stories #(tho as a note - THEY aren't really ever pirates. maybe briefly.) (I think maybe ofmd comps might do it a disservice if you're not clear #it's just 'piratey and also there's queer people) #there's some good side lesbians (def side tho)

[queenerdloser]

i have such a visceral reaction to using "female" when referring to women in fiction that it actually draws me way out of the narrative when it's done. like. stop that.

#this is about sarah j maas' books btw why does she constantly use male/female to refer to gender #like i get that she cant necessarily use woman/man since she deals primarily with fantasy races or w/e #but like. you can if you want to lol #idk something about 'the fae male' just sounds wayyyy too clinical to me #esp when youre trying to make jokes or sound casual in banter??? total tonal dissonance #but she also does this in crescent city???? #me every time i read a guy refer to someone as a female: oh. immediate cringe factor lol #idk it's just both very clinical language and i have IMMEDIATE associations with like. incel guys who talk that way about women #less bad associations with using 'male' i guess but the use of female to refer to women drives me bonkers #this has nothing to do with my original complaint but also where are all her queer characters lmao #youre telling me these fucks live for 500+ years and theyre still straight??? seems fake but okay #liveblogging life

[phoebespenglers]

problem with being a bi girlish is well there are a lot of problems. one of them being i am a girl liking men and apparently this is not a good or right thing to do in queer spaces anymore

#not upset just annoyed :/ #whyyyy do i feel weird talking abt my guy crush on here. whyyyy do i feel “not queer enough” #like . i say im bi. bc i like men and women #but i feel like if i talk abt liking men then im not . bi enough #hm. Hm #yes i know this isnt true at all. btw. theres just still so much casual biphobia Everywhere now and its kinda sad #bee.txt

Yearning for another fandom historical event that makes me feel the way I felt when they confirmed Tracer was a lesbian. Please...it was so triumphant

#parker says things #look I know P5T had bi Joker BUT I NEED HIM KISSING SOMEONE LIKE TRACER DID #I know he's fruity we all know it but in a fandom so predominantly dudebro despite the creators being pretty split demographic wise #nothing would bring me greater joy than him smooching a boy even if it's not my ship #do y'all remember Tracer kissing Emily #i was barely even in OW fandom at that point in time and yet I remember the exact day it happened #'she's ours now' #I think it's calmed down since then or maybe the reaction to Pharah was more chill bc we kinda...could tell with her #BUT STILL #pls I need every company to make the faces of their franchises LGBT+ #Sega unintentionally makes Sonic feel gay since he's not allowed to express long term romantic interest in female characters #where's the Shadow and Sonic makeout scene Sega #Let's have Aerith and Tifa kiss too I've been wanting that for 20 years #throwback to nearly every bi option in FE3H being from Adrestria #why did they do that #I think casual confirmation of queerness is as important as slow burn queer romances and I just am nostalgic for the euphoria of lesbian Tr #*Tracer #OKAY THAT'S ALL wow I'm ranting #can you tell it's the home of phobic family dinner holiday today
