I think my biggest word of advice to teenagers trying to find their personal style is that there probably isn’t an easily searchable keyword that encompasses everything you like

corporations trying to profit off of queer people by showing their support for only one month of the year is bad

and

it’s fun to watch conservatives get pissed that they can’t shop at target anymore because the big bad rainbows will corrupt their children :(

and

the existence of rainbow capitalism in the first place proves that society is now in a place where supporting queer people is the more profitable and thus more popular opinion and that means something

are all viewpoints that can absolutely coexist

It’s not called projecting it’s called Being Right About This Character

My boyfriend has to go to the ren fair for work but i can come and he wanted to do a matching costume. He was like “I want to be Frodo” and I was like “oh cool I can be Shelob” which was, apparently, not the couples costume he was thinking of

[fullmetalfisting]

I was like “babe she has the most screen time of any woman in Return of the King” and my boyfriend was like “that cannot be true,” looked it up, and said “i can’t believe that’s true”

more people would be for prison abolition if they just tried to send mail to an inmate even once

[muppethole-deactivated20240312]

for almost a year now i've been trying to send a copy of the literary magazine i edit to an inmate who requested one. his prison prohibits any written materials that so much as mention drugs, weapons, criminal activity, or malicious violence of any sort. i've been poring over what's available of the 95 volumes my magazine has printed over the years, and of those found 3 that might pass inspection. the first two were sent back undelivered two months after i sent them because one had a short story that alluded to a playground fight, and the other a poem that used the word "fist" in a nonviolent context. The third was returned for the stated reason that its contents depicted the use of firearms. i reread the entire issue, there's not a single gun mentioned in all its 120 pages.

while going back and forth with this guy trying to figure out how to get a copy of the magazine in his hands, two of my letters bounced back for unspecified reasons. i learned that inmates are not given their correspondents' original letters, but scanned copies, often poorly reproduced and sometimes illegible. these people aren't even granted the ink their loved ones used to pen their messages, or to hold in their hands the paper their loved ones held, if they're able to receive their words at all.

Look at this winning streak

[gloucester-serpent-fanclub]

You ever see two different posts on your dash that you totally agree with, and then like a day later you realize that they’re supposed to be two different sides of an argument, but you didn’t notice because they aren’t actually mutually exclusive?

[gloucester-serpent-fanclub]

Recent examples include:

1. Fanfiction is good and creative and encompasses a wide range of styles, genres, relationships to the source text and levels of complexity; ALSO it’s also good to read things that aren’t fanfiction; but ALSO there’s also a lot of reasons why someone might not and I am not The Judge of Hobbies so do what works for you.

2. A lot of media includes sex scenes that don’t really add anything to the story and just seem like they’re there because someone vaguely felt like there should be one and it’s annoying; AND sex scenes can add a lot to the story when they’re done right AND sometimes they’re just there for fun and that’s actually good AND people aren’t automatically puritans just because they don’t like sex scenes in media AND sometimes culturally conservative rhetoric leaks into progressive spaces and it’s not wrong to be wary of that AND our culture is simultaneously hyper-sexualized and sex-negative and that makes these conversations tricky sometimes.
