(3/5 @infamous-if mc, more details here)
Bethany Josnel “BJ” Coleman, lead singer of the Notations
Rumor has it that Josnel taught himself to play the piano in his mid-late teens to pick up a violinist.
He fooled around on the piano when he was 15 because there was one at his church, and he was bored waiting for his mom. He took lessons in college to impress this guy in orchestra.
Despite his vibrant, loud presence on stage and powerful voice, it is well known that Josnel is very quiet. He rarely says anything during interviews or recordings. Seven used to do all of the talking. And the way BJ lit up in response made him seem much more personable as well as approachable.
Since then rumors have circulated that he’s so reserved because he’s angry or heart-broken. And people have described his persona from anywhere between ‘uppity’ (which does NOT go over well with the fans) to shy, soft boi.
He has almost no social media presence. It would be a fat zero if he could have his way.
Most of his timeline is retweeting creative fan stuff. Especially younger fans. He doesn’t often say much, but when he does it’s usually simple things like ‘Great work’ or ‘this is excellent’. He refuses to show or admit to bias; HOWEVER, someone put him on Maya Holland’s account and he always finds her takes intriguing (but you won’t hear that from him).
This and based off stuff said off the interview from other the Notations members, assures fans that it’s BJ and not Orion who is team dad (.... this is the one rumor that’s 90% true. They switch off.)
He SOUNDS like Giveon Dezmann Evans (hehe) but he also has Daniel Caesar vibes lyrically/musically

I love how you guys are discovering spicy Hungarian paprika, and yes it is super good! But as a Hungarian I feel like it's my duty to mention that paprika hendl is simply german for our national dish paprikás csirke and it is Not made with spicy paprika. It's got sweet paprika. Jonathan Harker is unfortunately just british.

The whole "breasts shouldn't be politicized because the primary purpose of breasts is to feed babies!" can be a fine jumping-off point, but I really wish people thought deeper than that when we talk about the ways in which bodies are politicized and restricted.
Like, why's it that when we talk about breasts, they must have some Higher Purpose? It's true that breasts aren't inherently sexual, but they aren't valuable solely because they can potentially feed a baby. A human body doesn't have to serve a Higher Purpose in order for it to not be legislated against or policed, and I just wish people would remember it isn't always about babies, about other people, about anything else other than the people who have that body.

sims character page code
hii, ages ago i made a simple but customisable character page to try and get the hang of html and css, so i thought i'd release it. all of the instructions are within the code!
the code will look like the first pic when you put it in your page but you can play around with it to get different looks.
i tried to make it as beginner friendly as possible so even if you have no code knowledge you should be able to follow it :) but if not, don't hesitate to send me an ask!

"Lesbian means exclusive attraction to women!"
"No, it means non-men exclusively attracted to non-men!"
"It actually means queer attraction to women!"
"Lesbian means women and nonbinary people being exclusively attracted to other women and nonbinary people!"
Lesbian is a multifaceted label that can describe many different experiences. There is no one perfect definition of lesbian that will encompass the entire diverse experiences that lesbians can have.
I'm personally a genderqueer woman who's exclusively attracted to other women, but the lesbian next to me might be a transmasc lesbian who loves all genders except for men. And the lesbian next to them might be a bigender lesbian who's both a girl and a boy, who's exclusively attracted to women. Our experiences can all be described by the term lesbian if that's how we wish to describe it, but we might define it differently based on our own experiences. And guess what?
None of our definitions are wrong, but none of our definitions will encompass every other lesbian's experiences. A word can have multiple definitions without any of the definitions being wrong. And those definitions can be very vague or very specific. Labels are made to fit us- we aren't made to fit labels.
People who may have a different experience with the lesbian label are not your enemies. People in lesbian spaces who aren't exactly like you are not your enemies. The problem comes when you try to force one singular definition on every single lesbian. THAT is harmful. Sending death threats to other lesbians because they don't have the same experience as you is harmful. Not another lesbian having a different experience from you.
