black cat things

Just need a place for my thoughts & things that occupy my mind about stuff I like or I don't.

Finally I could watch Heartstopper Forever and what can I say? I liked it :)

I think the actors did a great job and I'm really happy, that the Nick and Charlie novella made it into the movie. I loved that all the characters made their appearance.

Elle’s speech, intended to show Charlie that he is needed at pride, really hit in view of the attack on Berlin’s Pride...

There is just one thing I have to admit: Honestly, it seemed to me as though the allotted time was too short to cover all the content. As a result, the first part felt a bit rushed to me. Another season might have given the story a bit more room...

In any case, it was a good conclusion to the story 💜

So... volume 6 is already out and 10 days till Heartstopper Forever.

Guess I have to stay away from tumblr then cause I'm on vacation right now and there is no internet (even mobile data are horrible) 😶

But: When I'm back I will truly enjoy the show ❤️

"We always believed strongly in what we now call intersectionality, in that statement that none of us are free until all of us are free. Also, the whole revolutionary idea was that none of us wanted a piece of the pie — we literally wanted to blow up the whole bakery. We are in a whole new era now. Regrettably, it took death to bring it about, but there seems to be an energy in the streets. If people can keep this going, the revolution that failed to materialize in 1970 — in spite of the Black power movement, the anti-war movement, the LGBT movement, the women's movement — might just come into being now. I feel more optimistic than I have in a long time." (2020)

Went to pride today and obviously there are some Heartstopper fans too.

And one of my quotes of the day: "Hey bis...you're queer enough" 🩷💜💙

If you tell neurodivergent people they need to "get comfortable with being uncomfortable" I am putting gravel in your shoes. No you can't take the gravel out. You have to deal with it. Dealing with it makes you a better person. What do you mean "pointless suffering".

I just reread the fourth chapter of Heartstopper for comforting reasons. These are still two of my favorite scenes 💜

[glitteringblackcats]

So, my boss came to me the other day and started talking about how I've changed and how I used to be more fun. I told him that I just don't want the things I say and how I say them to be constantly ridiculed and commented on. Otherwise, everyone can do what they want.

He said my views have become so extreme and I should be more tolerant.

I thought about it for a while and I realized that he is actually annoyed that I stand up for and live by my convictions and that I want to be taken seriously, like everyone else.

So, yes...I don't think homophobia, transphobia, sexism, racism etc are funny. And I don't hide it anymore. Get over it.
