“Is This Healthy” is a comic that I made for an independent study in which I looked deeper into the idea of health, mental, physical, and emotional as it relates to myself.
This project was extremely personal and I thank any of you who take the time to read it
what exactly /is/ so important about rocky horror picture show? i admit i'm young and haven't watched the movie, but it doesn't seem particularly generous to trans people or anybody who breaks gender norms. frank, the character who is the most gender-nonconforming, is a literal ax murderer who both feeds people human flesh without their knowledge and attempts to deceive people into having sex with him(?), before dying. is there some context i'm missing?
i don’t mean this in an offensive way, but, dude, you are missing the entire context. also, you are young, and you haven’t been to a showing of the movie. you have, in the most literal possible way, no idea what you’re talking about.
context: this movie came out in 1975. back then, kids who weren’t gender-conforming had basically one conclusion to come to about themselves based on available evidence: they were freaks. and they were alone. and they were always going to be alone.
and then here’s the RHPS, put on by art houses and midnight theaters and dollar theaters and theater troupes, being played by freaks and weirdos, and it’s the first thing you have ever in your whole life seen where sex and gender are treated on film as a big messy romp, and the normal heterosexual engagement of brad and janet is the sexuality everyone’s interrogating. brad and janet don’t get to judge anyone— from the very start they’re put on the defensive, they have to placate all these intimidating queers and they’re powerless.
and the audience of the movie is part of the movie, that’s how it works, you dress up, you scream, you throw things, you do dances and make dirty jokes. for a few hours everything that’s wrong with you is celebrated. and yeah, everyone dies at the end, but it’s glamorous and tragic and it’s still really funny. the queerness isn’t fixed, normality doesn’t triumph. everyone exit stage right in a cloud of glitter. and you think, maybe what’s wrong with you isn’t wrong. maybe it’s just you and you’re okay. and you’re not alone. and you can go back any time you need a reminder.
so if you’re young, that’s awesome, because you have a whole lot of awesome first experiences to enjoy! go look up a local screening of RHPS and have some fucking fun. is it problematic? hell yeah! is that the point? hell yeah.
hey Taylor!! my name is Arabella, and on October 17th, 2015 at the AT&T Center in Arlington, I will be seeing you live for the first time ever. i have been a fan of yours for 8 years now, almost half my life, and can’t imagine my world without you in it.
this concert is a huge deal to me, because three years ago, shackled by depression, an eating disorder, and extreme anxiety, i never thought i would live to seventeen, let alone to see you live. for the majority of the Red era, I was in and out of doctors offices and treatment, clinging to life by my fingernails. The Red album was some of the only music I could tolerate- it put all my wishes and pain and glimmers of hope into words, and when i had my headphones in with you singing in my ears, i didn’t feel alone.
I used to not be able to get through a day without self harming, but on the day of your concert, I will be 534 days clean. i will never get back the years that i lost to my mental illnesses, but at the same time, they made me who i am today, taught me how precious and fragile and beautiful life is. i had to pick up the broken pieces on my own- gain back the weight, earn the unexpected smiles, find the laughter again, but you were there every step of the way. your music, your videos, your voice and words and smile, held me hand through the darkness until i could finally turn on the lights.
sometimes you have to go through your Red era to make it to 1989.
I lost so much, but I found myself, and somehow, that was everything.
i will be going as a cheerleader from the Shake It Off music video and sitting in Section G, Row 12, Seat 9. i’ll be going alone, (but not really, because i’m never alone when i’m with you) and i am so so so incredibly excited and grateful that this is finally happening. I really, really hope you look my way to see my sign or maybe even see this post. I just want you to know how much you mean to me.
Love, Arabella <3333

if you give kids zero restrictions they’ll become the nicest fucking kids ever who never do drugs or get into trouble i know because my parents let me do nothing but eat chicken nuggets all day and read hentai until 4am and i am a straight A student
Seriously though this seems to be the case with a ton of people I know, if you don’t restrict them all the time they actually do better and are mentally healthier
WHY DON’T PARENTS UNDERSTAND THIS?!?
i cant wait to be married and to come home after a long day and curl up next to my favorite person in the whole world and fall asleep
me on a date : so, you've seen the scream franchise? are you a fan?
them : yeah! but sidney prescott is just such a boring protagonist & final girl. she doesn't go through any character devel-
me, shoving breadsticks into my purse : sorry but i have to go home right now immediately
Slide your hands down my stomach and to my thighs and watch my breathing pattern change
my favorite part about being an instrumentalist is that you become your instrument in a referral sense. no one in band calls someone a “trumpet player”. just “a trumpet”. The trumpet. they and their trumpet are now one. there is no going back.
when i was in band in ninth grade someone asked me “are you a boy or a girl” and i didnt hear him clearly so i said “im a clarinet”.
there are babies being born in the united states right now who will grow up and fall in love and never have to know what it’s like to be barred from their partner’s hospital room because they don’t count as family or see them die because they couldn’t share insurance or have to give up their children because they couldn’t get joint-adoption or a thousand other things that queer people have spent decades fighting for and that is such a beautiful thing
don’t yell at cashiers if they are asking you to sign up for a charge/debit card - their employers are pushing them to ask everyone
don’t yell at cashiers if they’re taking too long folding your clothes in your bags - their managers are telling them not to ball up your shit bc it shows you care
don’t yell at cashiers bc they are taking a while to scan your card- machines fuck up
don’t yell at cashiers pls
