in a just world todd haynes would be making the beatles movies and a woman would be playing john lennon and a real gay guy would be cast as brian and cate blanchett could come back for a bob dylan cameo or two and they would be called like “the bugz” or something and have slightly changed names and each of the fours’ perspective would be shot using a different style of filmmaking or different color grading and with like animated psychedelic parts that wouldn’t feel out of place but unfortunately we can’t have anything good

This Pride I hope that all of you never ever forget that no amount of sanitizing your sex life or sanding down of your LGBT edges will make bigots accept you. So, don’t debase yourself by capitulating an inch to them, especially in ways that throw your fellow community members under the bus.

[marisatomay]

You are a degenerate faggot in the eyes of bigots whether you’re wearing a nice button down and slacks with combed hair or leather daddy kink gear. So stand with the freaks who will stand with you until the end—long after the bigots have abandoned you despite your claims to be “one of the good ones.”

happy pride month i just saw a post about how queer people were “bullied” into using the word queer. the person saying it is in their 30s and posting on tumblr with no nuance. we are so back.

The assholes openly admit it. The whole point of college is to enforce the hierarchy. When those who were supposed to be low on the hierarchy started going to college, the assholes get angry and want to make them suffer for challenging the hierarchy.

but ykw at least i'm not on mount everest. at least i'm not paying tens of thousands of dollars to slowly suffocate in a 300-person line at the gates of hell. never in my life will i have to be steered in a hypoxic stupor through the maze of poop and corpses atop mount everest. on this earth a lot of horrible things can happen to you without your permission but there are a few that you have to opt into. you can just say no thanks! and be guaranteed never to have to be on mount everest. much to be grateful for actually

[sashayed]

still not on mount everest this morning 😌 alhamdulillah

"bruce springsteen came out as bisexual" no i don't think that's true "bruce springsteen is openly bisexual" this we can't possibly refute

Shout out to the (many) times I got called an elitist gatekeeper for saying that the only real way to fully understand a work of fiction is to experience it firsthand and that summaries and reviews are not a replacement for that

[the-lincyclopedia]

Me, reading the first 80% of the post: What do you mean, "experience it firsthand"? How am I supposed to join the Hunger Games or go on the Odyssey?

Me, reading the final clause of the post: Oh, you literally meant that people have to read the book/listen to the audiobook in order to fully understand it. And people got mad. Oh dear.

To quote what a friend of mine said after she watched Jerry Maguire (1996) for the first time, having thought she knew what it was about because of its cultural ubiquity: “you miss a lot of a movie when you don’t watch it”

[johnnycrass]

honestly i think what it is that pisses me off about Leftist people treating weird kinky sex stuff with an aura of it being like, a form of political resistance or something thats genuinely counter culture, is that... a lot of right wing people are just as kinky as you are - they have strange fetishes and they're swingers and watch all the same porn etc etc - they just are ALSO right wing. like yeah they're swingers but they also think illegal immigrants are subhuman and those things work out just fine together. ultimately- TO ME- it feels like maybe Weird Sex Stuff isn't the sort of revolutionary act we really want it to be. lol. i say this as a resident of fucking bitch ass texas - i remember when people were protesting some law by walking around with dildos strapped to their belts like guns. and it felt stupid. seeing that in public felt really dumb. the difference is conservatives just won't be open about it and that's it

[mackenziechance]

the repression of it IS a huge difference that has a major psychological impact tho like i don’t disagree with the general sentiment here but it really can’t be minimized to “both sides are the same, one of them just talks about it more” when the side that isn’t open about it is also actively trying to stop others as well as further repressing themselves
