we're always lucky

as it stands now, i am going to be a writer. i'm not sure that i'm going to be a very good one or even a self-supporting one, but until the dark thumb of fate presses me to the dust and says 'you are nothing,' i will be a writer. --Hunter S. Thompson

sometimes when i rewatch the my moon my man montage i remember that some people were so mad that they could tell both shane and ilya's running scenes were filmed in the same park and i laugh because i did not notice. i went to school in hamilton for four years and drove past dundurn castle every day on my way in and i did not notice. because if you had told me they filmed shane's scene on the bike path that runs through my hometown i would have believed you. i did not notice because so much of southern ontario just looks like that.

Every time I see a gifset of the stairwell kiss I'm like oh surely this has been slowed down. It hasn't! He is genuinely lingering like that. Do you do that with all your hookups Ilya. Jesus fucking Christ genuinely are you okay. Is the We Meet Up We Fuck Is Simple in the FUCKING ROOM WITH US. what are you DOING man.

as a rule it's always more interesting when two people who know each other outlive a third person that they both loved and then their relationship becomes So Much Weirder and more emotionally fraught, entangled, and charged when that third person dies

i do think the negative interpretations of "im probably nonbinary but i have a job right now" are kind of reaching. it's obviously a waste of time to theorize the op's intended meaning, so instead i think it's better to recognize how the phrase can be a useful framing device to criticize how much of a fucking hassle it is to get gendered correctly. "but i have a job" e.g. will face discrimination that could threaten livelihood; e.g. don't have the mental bandwidth to explain gender to others; e.g. don't have the time and energy for the soul-searching necessary to confirm. all three of these are labor issues. yes you could interpret it as "but being nonbinary isn't important enough to worry about", despite that being a blatantly bad-faith read. it's more useful to interpret it as "but being publicly nonbinary requires a lot of social effort that, in many cultural contexts, will create more problems that you can't afford to deal with". like cmon it's a really good jumping off point for productive conversations about queer labor rights

Ok like. Imagine life without ads. You wake up, check your messages across a variety of apps, no ads. You get up and put on the tv while you prep your breakfast, no ads. Maybe you drive somewhere and switch on the radio, no ads. Maybe you drive a long distance, yet somehow, not a single billboard on your path. You pick up a newspaper or magazine to pass the time, no advertisements only articles. You turn on your game console, the home screen is just about your games, no ads to buy more. You open a streaming app, you don't pay extra for no ads, there's just no ads ever.

Think about how much of your time is spent looking at ads. "Download ublock" yeah I know, I have. But that doesn't change that the world is covered with endless advertising. Imagine never seeing that again. How much better our lives would be.
