assad, you are so insane. that tiny little face journey after louis' "love of my life was him" was so fucking raw and painful. all the fidgeting and moving and talking throughout all of his time in ep7 speak to just how thin of a line armand is walking between all this methodical planning and the panicked hurt he can't quite shrug off. that's literally a child, trapped in a teenager, trapped in an adult, trapped in an immortal vampire. assad zaman you were born for endless awards, i hope you get them one day.

You know when there's like, a straight show and everyone's like "it's full of queer subtext between the main straight dudes, and this character is obviously autistic and they really meant to say trans rights"? And then there's a queer show and all of a sudden it's "no but they weren't sensitive about this character's trauma and the queer sex scenes are too short and they're all problematic as fuck, i can't even watch"? And then our shit doesn't get renewed, and we hated on it the whole way for not embodying the perfection we'd never dream of demanding from the straight show?

Yeah, something like that

I’m watching Hilda Hurricane for the first time and I have to say, I was aware of the whole priest-being-tempted-by-the-most-beautiful-woman-alive thing, but I wasn’t Truly aware. Like that’s barely the main thing of the show. It’s a show about the socio-political climate of Brazil in the 1960s, the rise of communism, the tension between religious/wealthy factions of society and the marginalized. Hilda is the centerpiece of this, rejecting the values of the society she came from to be a part of the red light district and its people, she is the bridge between these factions, and she is fighting so hard for justice and her own happiness.

And also we periodically cut to Malthus being plagued by the horniest visions possible of being ravished by Hilda.

And it slaps.

"im not saying feminism is for everyone but-" the fuck? well im saying that. feminism is for everyone. yes even cishet men will benefit from feminism and cishet men should be feminists because cishet men are indeed harmed by the patriarchy; nowhere near to the extent that women are, but having a culture that is fully equal and anti-misogynist benefits everyone. have we forgotten that lifting up the disenfranchised people in society helps all of us as a collective? "im not saying that universal and unalienable human rights are for everyone but-" YES THE FUCK THEY ARE LOL

You can’t call yourself a leftist if you hate children tbh, like you can choose not to have them or be around them, but outright hating the most marginalised group of people in the world who have absolutely no power or control over the most basic parts of their lives and bodies is a dangerous mentality to have and you need to grow the fuck up and get out of your edgy phase and start treating everyone around you like human beings, even the ones that piss you off.

"why are so many leftists disabled" maybe it's because disabled people don't really care for the "kill all disabled people" parties but who can say

a ton of people have unexpectedly followed me over the last 2 days so here is my rent-lowering gunshot:

the american south is the most racially diverse and poorest region of the united states, and any political sentiment that treats the south is stupid or expendable is inherently racist and classist. a lot of y'all are racist and classist. the south is also the heart of american culture. argue with a wall. you cannot deny that everybody in the entire world does not emulate artists from atlanta. there is vested interest in keeping the south poor and uneducated BECAUSE this is the most racially diverse region in this country. if you actually give a fuck about progress, you would fight for the south, not mock us.

[lowpawly]

people foolishly dismiss desserts and treats as having no nutritional value when they actually are necessary for refilling your sanity stat. to prove my point please observe the emotional stability of the next person you meet who doesnt let themselves ever eat any form of dessert

fake "secret third thing" fans when a queerplatonic relationship they can't portray as romance lite walks in

[lazer-exe]

I'm gonna say it, I do think that even the laziest person imaginable should have a roof over their head, food in their stomach, and access to healthcare

What pisses me off is yeah, I did feel like people weren’t talking enough about how shitty Louis was towards Armand and only focusing on how Armand was shitty to him. Not trying to absolve Armand of what he did, but you had an ex pimp in a relationship with an ex child sex slave. Armand was manipulative, but Louis knew how to play Armand too. Him calling Armand Arun made Armand feel small, feel weak, feel the same way he did when he was Arun. Louis mocked him for being raped, being high isn’t an excuse, and Armand practically had to babysit Louis in San Francisco. Let’s not forget, “you make the mess and I clean it up.” Armand has had to do that in every single relationship of his life. Armand pretending to be Louis’ servant definitely had more weight to it than we think.

But instead of exploring this in an interesting way we got….yeah.
