Me when I see the outrage of J. Alphonse Nicholson playing a gay character in P Valley: “He’s just acting. It’s art. Leave that man alone. He’s a great actor.”

Me when I see Jonathan Majors playing a gay character in When we Rise:

Lol I had to clutch my pearls. I was NOT ready to see my husband from a past life kissing another man. it’s hilarious because I knew what the show was about but damn. I remember reading a interview that Majors did along with other actors. I believe it was a round table discussion. The show was brought up and he spoke about his mom not being okay with it and he had to explain it to her. He said she watched it and was like “okay” and enjoyed it. But i’m curious if he was being truthful or not because I almost had a heart attack (not because Im homophobic or anything. It was just hard watching my husband from a past life make out with a man, who btw was the love of his life lol). And if I almost had a heart attack I can’t imagine what his Preacher mother felt lol.

The show was really good though and Majors was of course a beast. He’s really great in everything he does and I’m looking forward to his future projects.

I recall saying this before, but it bears repeating:

There could be a billion trans people in the world and it still wouldn't be a bad thing because being trans is not a bad thing. Even if the rate of people discovering they are trans is "disproportionate" to trends from decades ago, that is not a bad thing. In fact, it's a natural consequence for there being more trans people being able to stay alive, and, overall, being able to live in a slightly more tolerant world. You'd only see that as a bad thing if you actively didn't want trans people to either live or live a life that facilitates wellness.

#trans #transgender #lgbt #lgbtq #ftm #mtf #nonbinary #like even with there being more OPEN AND OUT trans people there are still more cis people by volume #even in my high school with three trans girls and three trans guys (including me) and a few NB people... #...there were still a THOUSAND cis kids going to school with us. imagine complaining when cis people are still 'dominant' #i don't know what my secondary school's population is because it's a big campus so you can deal with high school stats lol #like thank gd we are beginning to live in a world where the trans population CAN grow #i want there to be more trans people. because trans people will continue to be trans #we will continue being trans no matter what laws you put into place. no matter how dangerous you make the world for us... #...we will continue to be trans whether or not you approve. and that's fucking beautiful. i want us to live. i want us to eat well. #i want us to not worry about anything in this world. and that's going to happen one day. it will happen just like the sun rises each morning #if that is a threat to you then that is your own fault - your own self-destructive and sad thoughts about people and our world #and that is not my burden to carry - i have my own.

So I’ve been thinking about the boys combining their powers recently and I ended up really wondering about what would happen if a supercharged Mikey (time/dimensional powers) mixed his abilities with a supercharged Leo’s (space powers) and all I could think of was:

#rottmnt #rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles #rottmnt mikey #rottmnt leo #portal pals #oops reality as we know it is destroyed lmao #in Donnie and Raph’s corner they straight up make Voltron I bet #bit tired if you couldn’t tell #I’ll make an ACTUAL post pondering the possibilities of combo mystics eventually but alas 2 tired #all the main iterations of tmnt come forward to stop this ‘sudden multiuniversal tear in reality’ and when they wonder how it happened #this is what they see #‘I expected this from a Michelangelo - but a Leonardo?’😔 #‘I’m more shocked it wasn’t a Donatello’ #‘Give it time’

(good future) Finding Home Pride edition <3

Trans Leo pride is something I see a lot, but personally, FH Leo wouldn't celebrate his gender. He grew up around Gali, who went through a lot of gender struggles, especially in his younger years, and with the brothers being so accepting, it's just another part of his life

But his lack of romantic attraction? That's something that stands out to him. He sees the brothers with their own attractions and crushes and such and realizes he stands out. He's different. But that's okay because he's still him and he's still valid

anyways~ it's pride month, which means i get to be even more annoying about aro pride ^-^

An encompassing story of the struggle for gay rights over 8 hours. An outstanding cast, Gus Van Sant directing some episodes and producing, written by Dustin Lance Black, this had quality stamped all the way through it. It told a massive story and showed the huge progress made through 50 years and the awful toll of tragedy and loss on a community. It did feel a tad humorless and dull over the full stretch and the need for characters to be recast midway left you feeling like a whole new group of characters needed to find their place. The speed of action and desire to include everyone also made for too many swift entries and exits meaning some of the more moving passages lost their emotional heft. A valiant effort but a flawed one, in my very humble view.

Terrified by how this is gonna play out. Dragon/oni imagery in ninjago has famously always ended well for the characters involved.

#update to my sora design also #when are we gonna find out what arins horns are for I’m losing my mind #weird thing to put on a character design in a show like ninjago without a reason #ESPECIALLY because they’re Lloyd’s kids if you know what I mean #it’s a cycle it’s always a cycle #oni and dragon have FSM. FSM is forced to choose between them #FSM has wu and Garmadon. wu and Garmadon are oni and dragon #oni and dragon (wu and Garmadon) make Lloyd (next in line. sole heir.) choose between them #Lloyd gets two students/kids (Arin and sora) they have oni and dragon imagery #what’s going on here. what is this. it has to mean something #ninjago #dragons rising #my art #ninjago dragons rising #lego ninjago #Arin ninjago #sora ninjago #Arin dragons rising #sora dragons rising

some of the extremely supportive but slightly[?] unhinged things wyll can say to the dark urge as they fight the wyll [haha] to peel off his face.

#wyll x durge #my favorite not included is that he just says: 'shit' #when durge tries to bite him #wyll ravengard #he's so funny and so fucked up #it's just so like 'welp. this is bad bad. huh?' #yes wyllyam. tis. #kaeliana x wyll #bg3 #whew #cracked up so much from his reactions #like on a level it says so much about him. but on the other im dying bc ffs wyll. #the last is what he says when durge GROWLS at him???? #wyllyam. we need to speak. #baby #like i know -- you spent your seven years in the wild just fiends and monsters as your company. but -- #the first makes me sad and givesme so many feelings about wyll. 17. having to rise up and meet the gazes of what meant to hurt his city. #gaze of the devil who entrapped him. the gaze of the father who scorned him

[slavonicrhapsody]

I’ve seen a bunch of theories about the snow witch that hinge on the assumption that her name is Renna, but what if Renna was never actually supposed to be her name?

what we know about the snow witch, or snowy crone, is that she was a weird old lady in the woods who taught the young Ranni heretical cold sorcery, and wore the pointed hat and robe Ranni wears now. Ranni’s doll body is said to be “modeled after” her… but it cannot be a perfect 1:1 impersonation of her, because Ranni doesn’t look like a “crone” at all!

Rather than an attempt to fully impersonate the snow witch, I think Ranni’s doll body is more of an homage to her old mentor. and with that in mind, I think that the name “Renna” might also be an homage to perhaps the most important mentor in Ranni’s life — her mother.

I think it’s very fitting for Ranni to use her new persona as a way of maintaining her connection to her teachers after she slew her physical body and abandoned her previous life. though Ranni is accused of being cold and unfeeling, she’s actually very sentimental — her co-conspirators are her closest childhood companions, her base of operations her childhood home. she still loves her mother and defends both her body and her legacy. she died wearing her mother’s talisman. wouldn’t it be sweet if she chose to call herself Renna out of love for Rennala?

#elden ring #ranni #ranni the witch #re: the three sisters - i dont think theyre meant to represent sisters because. one of them is named after seluvis. #they’ve clearly been given names describing their current purpose: the one where ranni lives. the one where seluvis lives. #and renna’s rise is where we collect ranni’s snow witch clothes… it’s also where ranni departed on her ‘dark path’ #it might be where ranni’s fake identity ‘lives’ #the identity which she abandons along with the snow witch clothes when she departs on her quest #‘tell the two fingers that RANNI THE WITCH cometh to rend thy flesh’
