really good tiktok
The parking attendant paused by the double-length bay. Intended for mobile homes and cars with trailers, it was currently occupied by a sleeping dragon.
No parts of it extended beyond the lines, and the paper ticket was clearly displayed, impaled on a horn.
The parking attendant moved on.
I was going to just queue it for later but then it stuck in my brain, and I decided to make it everyone's problem

my favorite thing about tumblr is that the followers count is so hidden that i genuinely never think about the number. anyway how many do you guys think i have
one. it's just me and you, pal
this is correct i think
More examples of the WORST mansplaining here.
This might be my favorite

I took a bus to a conference today and the bus driver fully stopped the bus to identify and chastise a person who was playing music out loud on their phone. That is how you get me to actually complete the customer service survey specifically so I can give you top ratings
It's days later and I'm still thinking about this man. Full ass bus pulled over to the side of a state highway with the hazards on, stalking down the center aisle intoning "ALL RIGHT. WHO'S GOT IT. YOU CAN'T HAVE IT ON SPEAKER." I want to commission a statue of him. a hero. a king.
when you’re a gay lion and you accidentally tried to introduce your lesbian lioness friend to one of her own exes at a gay bar and she goes into the bathroom and bitches you out for not being able to tell her endlessly rotating cast of girlfriends apart which isn’t really fair because first of all they all keep dyeing their hair different colors and second of all she keeps getting back together with different ones at different times and meanwhile you’ve been “single” for like 8 months but are spending a lot of time with one specific guy who works at your old co-op and were going to excitedly tell her about it tonight but now you’ve ruined the whole subject of dating by trying to introduce her to her own ex at a gay bar (which is a watering hole. because you’re lions.)
how quaint.
Hey all, while we're busy normalizing women with hairy legs, hairy armpits and bushy pubes, let's also normalize women with hairy upper lips, hairy chins, hairy side burns, hairy chests, and all the other places where women are supposedly magically hair-free.
Name as many Shakespeare plays as you can. Feel free to write them down and check your answers but not to cheat. How many can you name?

Tell me in the comments: are you from a country that speaks predominantly English? Was any Shakespeare required in your education?
i once again want to say that hulu used to be entirely free with ads, and if you watched two minutes worth of commercials at the start of an episode the next 24 hours would be commercial-free. and now you pay $11.99 per month to watch things with commercials. what the fuck are we doing and how did we allow this to happen lol.
liz's romantic queer book recommendations
welcome everyone! a little while ago I reblogged a post about reading queer litfic and expressed that I think the people yearn for well-written, non-genre romantic queer books, so I wanted to share some of my favorites here! to clarify, these are books I would say are romantic but are not traditional capital-R "Romances" as in they won't follow classic rom-com structure, there is little-to-no smut, and they may not have traditional happy endings (although some of them definitely do).
I've tried to explain a little about them and give insight into why they're on my rec list. hopefully someone discovers their new favorite book here :)
gay as in happy
Less, Andrew Sean Greer (p. 2017, 263 pages): this book won the pulitzer. the writing is gorgeous. it's wonderful. it's a love story. read it now
Tipping the Velvet, Sarah Waters (p. 1998, 481 pages): how can I get everyone in the world talking about sarah waters. PLEASE. READ THIS LESBIAN BOOK PLEASEEE. also if you like this one you should also read fingersmith also by sarah waters which inspired the handmaiden dir. park chan-wook one of the most important lesbian movies OAT
The Vanishing Half, Brit Bennett (p. 2020, 343 pages): the queer storyline isn't the main one in this book, but it's really beautiful and moved me a lot. the main plot of the book is about Black twin sisters and one of them can pass for white and how they navigate that from the 50s to the 90s. excellent book
The Dove in the Belly, Jim Grimsley (p. 2022, 336 pages): we should all be talking about grimsley more. this book is incredible and he also has one from 1993 called comfort and joy that made my heart explode with love
Whiskey When We're Dry, John Larison (p. 2018, 400 pages): a western! gender gender gender and then it gets gay
Detransition, Baby, Torrey Peters (p. 221, 337 pages): complex maybe to put it in the happy category because it's definitely hard to read sometimes, but it's NOT a tragedy. definitely read a little bit about it and see what you're up for but god. it's so good
A Language of Limbs, Dylin Hardcastle (p. 2025, 300 pages): one of my favorite books from last year, swerved on me harder than I've ever been swerved on, I cried real tears but the ending is so, so beautiful
Almost Like Being in Love, Steve Kluger (p. 2004, 354 pages): the reason I made this rec list. definitely the most traditional romance I've posted here but it's completely epistolary so very unlike a lot of other books of its ilk. it's about sports. it's about musical theatre. it's about best friends. it's about falling in love with multiple people in your life. it's about being gay and insane. I love it so, so, so much. I want to mail a copy to every person I've ever known
gay tragedy
As Meat Loves Salt, Maria McCann (p. 2001, 565 pages): I think a lot of people know about this one but just in case you want your gays historical and fucked up. enjoy jacob cullen and his toxic evil ass
The Great Believers, Rebecca Makkai (p. 2018, 421 pages): really beautiful and sad historical fiction about the AIDS crisis in chicago. hits real hard as a chicagoan but is still one of the most gorgeous books I've ever read
More Than This, Patrick Ness (p. 2013, 480 pages): this is probably somewhere between happy and tragic, but I'm putting it here to be safe. I loved this so, so, so much and I'll never move on
The Heart's Invisible Furies, John Boyne (p. 2017, 582 pages): yes, the john boyne who wrote boy in the striped pajamas and is an idiot. HOWEVER, this book made me cry approx. eight million tears. it's too sad and tragic to put in the happy list, but the ending is hopeful and moving and it's one of my all-time favorites
The Power of the Dog, Thomas Savage (p. 1967, 293 pages): firmly believe we all should have read this in school. absolutely gutting but incredible. lgbt but at what cost
Swimming in the Dark, Tomasz Jędrowski (p. 2020, 191 pages): sad polish boys :( so fucking good though
Lie With Me, Phillippe Besson (p. 2017, 150 pages): a probably autobiographical story about being gay in the 80s in france. also so, so sad but gorgeous. and molly ringwald translated it to english. yes, that molly ringwald
The Silver Book, Olivia Laing (p. 2025, 256 pages): another immediate favorite from last year. a gay love story at the heart of one of film's most infamous time periods in history. very sad but very beautiful and we should all be reading olivia laing
All Them Dogs, Djamel White (p. 2026, 256 pages): new fave. vibes couldn't be worse. atrocities committed. bon appetit
if anyone enjoyed this and would like more rec lists from me (I can do a genre one and a traditional romance one if anyone is interested) please let me know! I read too much and have too many thoughts.
reblogging now that it's officially pride month! 🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈
Happy Pride!
lol really wish my wrists hadn't got fucked up on top of my feet being fucked up, because it actually looks like the garden might be going somewhere this year despite how lax I was about planting things in good timeframes etc
