I just had to draw them
Your post about shane needing ilya to squish him made me think of baby shane randomly going up to David like daddy hug:( and then david squishes him and makes it all better👍
please 🥺🥺 thinking of baby shane learning how to regulate himself but also not knowing that's even what it is. and how adult shane is exactly the same way. he just wants to be Squeezed 😭
okay but little bb shane who learns allergies=don't have to eat that/do that anymore
and thus starts using "i'm allergic to that" as an attempt to get out of things he doesn't like
"i'm allergic to aunt gina's house"
"no, you're not, honey-"
"i'm allergic"
OH MY GOD IT CONTINUES BEING A FAMILY JOKE AFTER HE'S GROWN UP
which means a very normal exchange is something like "shane, can you put the laundry in the dryer?" "no, i'm allergic" as he gets up to do it but ilya who is still trying to understand the full scope of this is??? shane no?? if you are allergic?? do not do it?? yuna why are you asking this of him???
and then after ilya has a better grasp on actual allergies versus bit, it gets adopted into their house as well, but NOW it presents issues for anyone ELSE trying to work out wtf is safe to have at a team barbeque or not.
ilya trying to get shane to try the salsa someone brought and shane who hates cilantro even if he's not allergic to it just *head recoil* "ugh, no, i'm allergic"
and the poor new rookie who brought the salsa THINKING it was totally Safe For Hollanders and would make a good impression is just 🥺 what 🥺
oh my god and ILYA adopting the bit, too
"ilya, c'mon, we're gonna be late. get up."
"no, hollander. i cannot. i am allergic."
"you're literally not."
went through the effort of making this gif just to remind everyone of rocky scooting closer to grace on the beach
DELTARUNE RIGHT NOW???
i think i saw a movie like this once
Ok I needed to know the story and
Guy makes a really stupid decision and gets in a car accident -> no real damage from accident but insurance goes up -> starts beating himself up over his stupid decision -> gets depressed -> starts to realize he's single and had crash been worse he'd die alone -> realizes he's never had a relationship or even a crush and starts wondering what he'd want out of a relationship -> starts to realize he doesn't really like girls so he thinks he must be gay -> realizes he likes girls and boys about the same amount, so he must be bi -> later realizes that "same amount" is none at all -> he's ace
I wanted to share another piece of American history and also queer history with you guys that I've been thinking about since, what I consider to be the vandalism of "Portrait of Ross in L.A", and also because it is relevant to our current polticial climate, where even the company I currently work for has publicly declared that they will no longer have diversity and inclusion programs
John S. Boskovich was an American homosexual man living in America during the AIDS epidemic of the 80s and 90s. He had a partner, Stephen Earabino. During the epidemic, Earabino contracted AIDS and eventually passed away in 1995.
This was during a time period where the AIDS crisis was being intentionally mismanaged as a direct attempt to "purge" queer people and make them socially unacceptable, and many families often hid the deaths of their queer family members for being AIDS-related out of shame, fear of public ridicule, and/or homophobia. The shifting of the blame of AIDS onto exclusively gay and bisexual men was so intentionally heavily prevalent that it lead to many deaths of heterosexuals, lesbians, and even the creation of a now famous poster by that read "Women Don't Get AIDS: They Just Die From It", which was also created as a plea to the CDC to address the crisis and EVERYONE who faced it
So, in that social and political context, after Stephen passed away, his family came to the flat where their son was living with his lover and completely cleaned out all the belongings in the apartment, erasing any evidence of Earabino and Boskovich's relationship, but also, leaving Boskovich with absolutely no possessions and nothing to remember his lover by except for a single box fan
Boskovich, in his grief, made this single electric box fan an art installation by encasing it in plexiglass with holes cut into it, protecting the fan, lionizing it, with the breeze coming through the gaps meant to symbolize his lover's breath and how this art installation, in a sense, keeps Stephen Earabino's memory alive. The name of the piece is "Electric Fan (Feel It Motherfuckers)" and it has been theorized that the "feel" refers to not only the breeze of the fan symbolizing his lover and memorializing him, in a sense giving him eternal life, but also for the viewer to "feel" the grief and anger of Boskovich losing his lover and the cruel aftermath that followed
Boskovich made this piece of artwork in 1997, and eventually passed away 9 years later in 2006 in his home at 49 years old of causes that were never fully disclosed, some theorizing that he committed suicide. His artwork now sits in the Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles.
This is another influential and emotional piece of history that goes to show just how extremely important it is to hang onto the truth that queer people and by extension any marginalized people have a right to exist. It shows the lengths to which lives are destroyed by the hatred and policies of those who revel in intentional cruelty and exerting their own authority for no other reason than hating those that do not share the same views as them. When we do not fight to hold onto our history, those who decide we do not need to be a part of it will fight hard to erase it completely and pretend that we were never even here in the first place, much like Stephen Earabino's family would have completely erased his existence without the voice of John Boskovich, or how Ross Laycroft and his struggle wouldn't have been known without him becoming memorialized by Felix Gonzales-Torres' sculpture intended as an act of love
We are here. We are alive. We will continue to make our voices heard and refuse to die in darkness. I will not be driven from my home country because of what is QUICKLY becoming an American fascist dictatorship.
We are all eternal in the memories of those who lives we touch and change. We are made stronger by the bonds we build with each other and our communities. We must never stop fighting for our right to exist.
We must never make it easier for them to erase us, not just from being alive, but from being recorded in history altogether
i get why people don't believe in marriage as a social construct but legally it is the best and easiest way to say "this is who i trust to take care of me when i can't take care of myself" and i'm so glad gay people fought for that right bc when shit gets scary at least i know im in good hands
Was driving with my grandmother and in broken English she says “no eyes… no nose… no face. Don’t trust.” To which I looked around wildly in search of this omen of ill portend.
Cybertruck. It was a cybertruck.
I know i have already discussed this ad nauseum, but I love that Shane never talks down to Ilya because of his weaker english skills. especially at the beginning when he’s just moved from russia. he just talks like he would with anyone else.
similarly, i love that ilya never teases or laughs at shane when he misses obvious conversational cues (re: ilya asking shane four times in florida if he is still seeing rose). he obviously finds it endearing mostly but even when he starts to get frustrated and just asks outright he never makes shane feel lesser or aware of his misstep. he’s endlessly patient with it
they are both just so earnest with each other, sort of unintentionally??? they really are like fated mates hehe <3
also i don't think Shane's submission comes from the same place as his need for things to be under control and repressed and wanting to suck dick but not being able to bear it and needing someone to tell him what to do. even in their very very first hookup at CCM Shane is nervous and naive but he isn't shying away from taking what he wants. He drops to his knees without prompting, he pushes Ilya towards the bed. i don't think Shane needs the reins taken out of his hands.
Personally, personally i think Shane submits from a place of "i'm the best hockey player in the fucking world please god let there be someone good enough to put me on my knees". and the ONLY person he deems good enough is Ilya. sometimes submission comes from a place of power, of knowing what you wield as a sub. i do think it's a gift to Ilya specifically, even if neither of them is fully cognizant of it.
like i do not think Shane would be subbing for literally any other man, hockey player or no. i don't mean that Ilya is "the only one for him", i mean Shane likes subbing because he's thrilled that there's someone he deems worthy of submitting to.
Gotta tell you guys something wild in the Chinese fan sphere
So some fanartist drew a “sexy” (read: booby) version of a (cartoon) character who is traditionally very non-sexualised. Fans of the character got mad about it because it’s kind of groundbreaking how that character is written and portrayed and this art totally ignores the entire point of the character. They demanded the art be deleted. In response to that other people said, well what the fanartist did may be distateful but they have every right to draw what they’re into. The two sides fight for days and each starts a harassment campaign and even report their “opponents’” accounts.
So far so typical. But things eventually come to a head and they decide that this will be settled by votes - not through a poll. Through donations to a children’s education charity via each side’s portal. Whoever can get the highest amount of donation wins.
And that is how this charity received over 1 million in donations in three days lol. Oh btw the “freedom of expression” side won by a landslide (960k to 40k)
From now on this is how all petty fandom disputes should be settled.
