I dont really care if you use the term bisexual or pansexual, but what i DO care about is that you understand that bisexuality at NO stage in history was EVER trans-exclusionary. Bisexuality has always included trans folks, and non-binary folks, and the entire spectrum of gender between male and female, as well as Definitively Gender and agender. It has ALWAYS meant "attraction to more than one gender." It has NEVER meant "attraction to cis men and women only."
So, pan, bi, use whichever label you will. But do NOT buy into the recent-years innacurate concept that bisexuality is attraction to cis men and women only, because thats literally never been the case.
^^ Like. Its literally right there in the middle of the flag.
And by contrast, this is what the pan flag colours mean:
So literally its just......
bi colours = "same gender, opposite gender, and other genders"
pan colours = "men, women, and nb people."
Those two things are...... not all that different to each other.
The purple has always, literally since the flag was created, meant "more genders."
And bisexuality included "more genders" in the definition before the bi flag was created, too. Thats why they included the purple bar in the first place, because it was reflective of bisexual people's attraction to and relationship with gender.
If you feel that pansexual suits you better, or you like the pan flag more, then thats fine -- but don't spread the misconception that bisexuality is remotely exclusionary. Because its literally never been.
seeing people say “sometimes i wish i was a guy but i still want to be a girl too” or vice versa and it’s like YOU CAN!!! YOU CAN DO THAT!!!! TAKE MY HAND
pics 1-3 are before grad obvi, maybe two weeks before. then 4-5 are paul’s insta post for cherrys graduation bc he’s a sap. 6-8 are the pictures he posted (a song that’s he (cough i cough) feels captures their relationship, cherrys “senior photo”, and cherrys grad cap bc i think she lovesss tangled). and lastly 9 and 10 are graduation night like right after the ceremony and paul gave cherry his car (elaine ii aka elaine jr aka ej) and cherry is over the moon
Sorry adding onto this a bit late, but QueerQuirk (the instagram page) is still up, and their site is still in the browser index (can't access it rn, might need a VPN). Remember the name please. Don't give them personal information of any kind. Please stay safe.
What do you mean “chat” is now referring to ChatGPT and not twitch chat? What? What? What the fuck? No?
When I address chat I am speaking to a presumed Greek chorus of real human people shitposting on their lunch break, not a machine that devours lakes to covert electricity into slop.
theres this thing a lot of white people do (and i myself have been guilty of) where we wanna be in on the jokes about white people, but also wanna preemptively excuse our mistakes, so we try to be cute about it like "omg im soooo white and stupid. white people suck and i am the worst one. i was raised in the suburbs ive never seen a melanin in my life. im so clueless let me tell you all the crazy things i used to believe-" and its like stop stop stop it nobody wants to hear this. its not cute its cringe. please. kill the instinct to turn your ignorance into an endearing character flaw. it doesnt work that way.
the ability to grow up clueless about bigotry is in itself a privilege. and its good youre learning now but loudly telling people about the fact you were afforded the chance to look away for so much of your life is like. not really fun to hear. basically.
love how cars are used as a symbol for autonomy in the great gatsby SO MUCH.
jordan being careless and apathetic, putting the blame on others to steer clear of her and use their own discretion because she’s comfortable and happiest when she’s pushing through recklessly and blamelessly
tom using his car as leverage and power over other people, while having no intent of ever changing his behavior or following through on his promises
gatsby driving faster than is legal in his bright, flashy car. the speed is a mimicry of carelessness but it’s not really because there is always intent behind it; to prove that he’s just like those that were born to be careless. and the flashiness of the car shows how he echoes their flaunting of wealth as grand, opulent gestures that are meant to stick out and show off when there’s rarely so much purpose to it
daisy choosing to drive home after her every semblance of choice was torn away from her, reclaiming her autonomy to calm herself down after. and then she’s forced to choose between plowing through some poor woman that runs toward the car or veering away and driving head on at an oncoming car—a choice between destroying someone and then moving on like it never mattered at all, or putting herself in the way of a brutal collision that could very well ruin her life. (which deeply emulates the choice she faces between jay and tom after the plaza)
and nick. he never drives in the novel. not once. his old dodge sits there stagnant and he never takes anything into his own hands. he is constantly driven around, moved from place to place, and he just sits there and observes. the only time he makes choices that have any weight at all is with jay and even there he downplays the significance or influence of them. he so desperately wishes he could say he was an innocent bystander in what happened and he weaves it into the way he illustrates control and choice
i am SO normal about this book guys. please. pleeeeease help me.
idk where this fits but another mini smau for a helping hand because i randomly started missing them and somehow?? josie got added to the master post ?? i don’t know how my little headcanon baby got there but fawk yeah

“cheated on” and “megan thee stallion” in the same sentence is nasty work all men have is audacity……thats so crazy seriously are u out of ur fucking mind……..i hope she has a good hot girl summer like oh she needs it bad
a helping hand au | a look into the letterboxd profiles of the group, because they all love watching movies together and then comparing reviews
ponyboy and chet were the first two to use the app and they both use it religiously
after they found out that both of them are super active on it, they forced soda onto it
and then after that, the three of them made paul, darry, cherry, and marcia get on it
and then it eventually just continued spreading through the group
the only two that held out were dally and bob; dally because he's doesn't actually really likes movies that much (which is embarrassing with the amount of time he spends at the drive in and the movies), and then bob because he did not want anything to do with whatever app chet and pony of all people wanted everyone to get
eventually bob downloaded it for 'completely unrelated reasons' (definitely had nothing to do with the fact that he felt left out being one of the only 2 without it)
and then dally finally relented and downloaded it; he set up a profile and a top 4 but he does not log anything (when he does actually watch something) unless he's watching with johnny and pony and then they make him log it (he just marks it as watched without any stars or reviews or anything)
melvin and sergei share an account because they always watch movies together and they swear it’s really cool that they share an account. they’re trying to become one of those super popular accounts that people follow because they’re invested in their takes on movies (their only followers are the group)
letterboxd profiles below the cut!
if chet had a top 4 that wasn’t all star wars, it’d be star wars empire strikes back, superman 2025, the dark knight, and project hail mary btw
paul pays for patron for pony, soda, darry, chet, cherry, and johnny so he insists that he will not cave and get it for himself too (he absolutely does cave and gets it for himself)
ace’s bio was originally just the spade emoji but two-bit and steve kept making fun of her for being unoriginal so she let them come up with a new bio for her and this was what she got
i need y'all to notice the posters soda and steve have for cars btw
trip for sure gets clowned on for this top 4 because it's so stereotypical red flag movies
you should like tell me all of your headcannons for chetsoda in hhau because i’m desperate and miss them (i’ll be patient for the fic but i need any crumbs you have to supply)
hh!chetsoda🥰🥰🥰
my babies, i love them so much. like i love all the hh!characters (even trip and bob, even though it may not seem like it at times) but chetsoda and parry (and pony obviously) are the heart of it for me and i really love them and writing them and thinking about them and literally everything to do with them
i'm going to try and make sure this is all stuff i haven't mentioned before but some of it might be repeats
chet and soda were friends as kids before the soc greaser divide became big for their age and soda was chet's first real friend besides paul
eventually, they stopped being friends because of the divide but they were both devastated by it
chet was the first person paul told about possibly adopting soda and pony after him and darry starting looking into it
when they were still in the 'is this actually going to be possible?' phase of the adoption process, paul and darry wanted to ease the boys into things to make sure everything went smoothly so paul started slowly bringing people over to meet the boys. chet was the first person he brought over
chet and soda were so nervous to be reintroduced to each other but then it wasn't awkward at all and they were just relieved to have each other back
chet went into gay panic mode when him and paul were getting out of paul's car and he saw soda standing in the doorway (he really did his best to avoid soda at school and around town so this was the first time he had really gotten a good look at soda since they were kids) and he literally just froze and paul had to grab his arm and nudge him to get him to keep going. chet played it off as just being nervous but paul totally picked up on that it had to do with soda
when soda and pony first moved into paul's house, chet kicked himself out of the house for a couple weeks and went back to staying at his own house because he didn't want to invade their space cause he knew it was gonna be hard and a huge adjustment for all of them but he ended up getting into a fight with his dad and soda found out and told paul so that paul would make chet come back to staying at paul's (soda only told paul instead of doing it himself because they were still new to talking again and he didn't want to overstep and drive chet away already)
chet got surprisingly close with pony and pony really does love him but also pony gets so fed up with chet's obvious crush on soda (because "chet, either do something about it or don't, but just stop subjecting me to watching your terrible flirting with my brother")
chet and pony definitely drag soda to the movie theater when they want to see a movie and then he goes to sit in the middle because he figures it makes sense if he's in between his brother and his crush boyfriend friend but they don't let him sit in the middle because they want to be able to whisper to each other throughout the movie
when chet and soda are both crushing on each other but won't do anything about it, pony loves to mess with them and be as annoying as he can be. if they're sitting on the couch watching a movie and they're sitting like right next to each other, soda's arm is up on the back of the couch around chet, pony will walk in and be like "oh great, what are we watching?" and force himself in between the two of them
chet has a room at paul's house (it's technically a guest room but it's chet's) and after soda and chet start dating, they're constantly switching which room they're staying in overnight (paul made a joke once about chet and soda always staying in soda's room and chet got paranoid that paul was trying to insinuate that chet didn't need his own room anymore) (paul definitely was not trying to say that at all, he would never take chet's room away from him, but chet got paranoid) (he did eventually admit this to paul and paul profusely apologized for making him think that)
pre-them getting together, chet is definitely trying to get information out of pony about soda and whether or not soda could like him back. pony obviously would not give anything up
^even after they start dating, chet will sometimes go to pony if he's trying to figure out something about soda and pony just laughs in his face and refuses to tell him ("no, pony, please. i just want to know if he actually had fun on the date i planned or if i did a terrible job and he was just saying he had fun so i wasn't upset... pony, please stop laughing and just give me an answer.")
soda loves how close chet and pony get but also sometimes he gets stressed because he's worried that they might get into a fight and he'll have to choose a side (he would of course always choose pony but he really doesn't want to have to)
^pony also shows his love through teasing his friends and chet can sometime get really sensitive about that (the lasting effect of all the stuff bob and trip have said to him over the years) and so he's sometimes worried that pony may go too far with teasing and say something that actually upsets chet (but he does also understand that both of them are old enough to have those conversations and set those boundaries on their own without him having to babysit them)
chet never got along well with bob and the two of them were always butting heads. chet also had a rocky relationship with trip because of trip's relationship with and treatment of marcia. so because of that, paul and brill were really the only ones he was friends with in the soc boys group. because of this, soda was really nervous to try to make sure brill liked him, which came with its own complications because that also meant he would probably have to get bev to like him as well. but he ends up getting along good with brill, cherry, and marcia (and paul obviously) and so the 4 of them help him impress bev so that she at least tolerates him (she does eventually approve of him and ends up becoming friends with him and the other greasers but it takes a while)
pony and paul are their biggest shippers. when chet and soda are in their whole denial phase, darry is actually always annoyed because so much of his time is spent having to listen to paul and pony complain about the two of them being oblivious and not doing anything to get together
chet has his dogs and cat (there’s a whole post about them on my page if you want more info about them lol) and all 4 of them love soda
when they were kids, chet was asked at school who he had a crush on and sweet little chet (who didn't even really know the concept of being gay, let alone considering if he was or why he never seemed to like girls the same way his friends did and was instead always more interested in what sodapop was doing) just said cherry because he knew that all the other boys in their grade always said they had a crush on her and soda still does not let him live this down. chet will literally be flirting with soda and soda will start teasing him like "are you sure you didn't mean to go in the other room and say that to cherry?"
pony loves to set chet up and embarrass him. "soda, chet keeps talking about how hot you are" "what?! no i'm not! soda, don't listen to him" "so you're saying you don't think soda is hot?" "no! no, that's not- i didn't say that. i didn't say either of those things. soda, your brother is making things up!" meanwhile pony is cackling in the background and soda is trying really hard not to laugh in front of chet
this is all for now!! like i said, i really do love chetsoda and writing for them so i do think ill probably make another post with more headcanons soon. i also have a couple full fics in progress (their first ‘i love you’!! and also some that showcase more of how their relationship plays into the larger family and friend group dynamics)
also i’m curious now that i mentioned the fic, who do you guys think would say i love you first between the two of them? because bird and i know the answer to this and i wanna see what you guys think before the fic comes out
