Genuinely can't stand criticisms of the second best Alien movie when it gave us glorious scenes like this

You have no right to criticize the first sapphic film I saw as a child.

where is the petah your balls are missing post?

Every day I wake up and wish Samus had aged the collective 34 years from the first Metroid game to the most recent one.

Buzz cut, scarred up, even more beefcaked, late 50’s Samus is what we deserve and we’ve been robbed.

You want Sigourney Weaver built like a brick house.

I want less dainty “I’m actually a badass *scoff*” characters that people on Twitter call “THICC” when I, personally, could snap them in half like a twig and use their thighs as tooth picks and more actually diverse body types.

You don’t go around as a bounty hunter in space, do all the shit Samus does, and not realize that having hair that long all crammed into your suit is impractical and itchy.

Also she’s got so much alien dna injected into her by this point how does she not have like… claws or anything? She’s somehow still got 1960’s Barbie figure while doing all that AND getting being merged with alien dna?

Naaaaaah, I don’t believe that for a second.

“JUST MARRIED,” Fernando, seated, and his husband, both members of Los Angeles’ Blue Max Motorcycle Club, get pulled over as they leave their wedding ceremony, December 1969. Photo c/o @onearchives. In the mid-twentieth century, the Blue Max Motorcycle Club, along with many other gay motorcycle clubs, provided an alternative to gay bars, which were constantly at risk of police raids and harassment. #lgbthistory #lgbtherstory #lgbttheirstory #lgbtpride #queerhistorymatters #haveprideinhistory (at Los Angeles, California)

fun fact: motorcycle clubs in the U.S. were founded and run largely by gay men who missed the homosocial camaraderie of being in the U.S. military during WWII. the lifestyle and aesthetics of those motorcycle clubs gave rise to many of the stereotypical/classic gay “looks” (leather, chaps, etc) and indeed to the gay leather scene itself (both the gay male leather/biker scene and the lesbian/dykes on bikes leather/biker scene)

[bradspace3000]

Just to add to this - the classic “metal look” that heavy metal rock came to be associated with (leather, studs, tight fitting clothes) was introduced by Rob Halford of Judas Priest, an openly gay man who says he was simply wearing the look from the gay leather subculture on stage, and people started imitating him.

So the two “iconically heteo” fixtures of masculinity - biker gangs and heavy metal music, are both actually just gay culture that heteros unknowingly adopted.
