chase the melodies that seem to find us

Welcome to the my own little corner of the Internet with endless fandom and musical theatre trash for my own satisfaction :) Anything Broadway. HP. PJO. SU. RWBY. And various book series.

So Captain Underpants explores the friendship between a gay boy and a black bisexual boy and y’all wanna say Beauty and the Beast was the pinnacle of gay representation in children’s films huh

[racefaker]

Captain Underpants comes out on Pride Month. Coincidence? I think the fuck NOT.

[evil-little-princess-from-hell]

Excuse but Harold and George aint gay.

[dykelliewilliams]

You miss the book where Harold has a husband?

[evil-little-princess-from-hell]

Fanfiction aint canon

[heartandstride-deactivated20190]

It’s in the official books written by the actual author, so it is canon. Pilkey wrote it, so it’s canon. 

[evil-little-princess-from-hell]

I refuse to believe he willingly inserted a political agenda into a popular, established children series

[heartandstride-deactivated20190]

Oh look, stuff from the book! The actual canon book. 

Look at Harold with his husband and kids. Very small but super poignant. 

[darkwingsnark]

LOL @ ‘wouldn’t put political agendas in children’s books’.

31 days of Mental Health Month have come and just about gone. Tumblr, thank you for sharing your stories. Thank you for reading the stories of your peers. Without you—all of you—Post it Forward would not be the beautiful, caring community it is today.

Though we reblogged a lot of the art that was created this month, we wanted to end on a particular high note and highlight just a few more pieces in a special post.

There was no shortage of inspo:

Some of it was simple, but just as helpful and nice to look at:

We’re proud to showcase some valid as heck pets:

One person, Fatin (@nfzsketchbook), even made a zine about what it’s like to focus on self-care while battling a mental illness:

You can check out her full post—and more pages from her zine—here.

Mental Health Month may have been limited to, well, May, but it doesn’t mean our efforts stop in June. Post it Forward is always here as your hub for sharing stories and finding a support system with others who might be going through the same things you are.  So keep sharing if you can, keep reading, and keep up all of the amazing work we’ve seen so far.  And please always remember, there are resources out there if things ever get too hard. <3

Take care of yourself, Tumblr. You deserve it.

Hey. It’s Pride Month!

Over the next 30 days, we are actively encouraging you to share your LGBTQ+ pride with all of Tumblr. You deserve to be proud of who you are 365 days a year, but these next 30 days, we’re going all out. There’s no wrong way to do it. Upload an illustration. Write a poem. Make a GIF. Take a selfie and slap a Pride sticker on it. Maybe send a sticker to a friend. These precious babies are in your app right now:

Do one thing, do 100 things—whatever feels right. Just tag it with #TumblrPride so other people can find it. And, hey, if you can’t do any of these things, know that we still support you. You have every reason to feel proud this month, even if you aren’t ready to show it. <3

We’ll also be signal boosting other influential LGBTQ+ voices all month long. We’ve secured some really amazing people for Answer Time and Issue Time:

6/23—Gavin Grimm, 17 year old activist fighting for the equality of transgender students, held on Action (@action).

6/29—Becca McCharen, queer fashion designer and founder of fashion label Chromat (@chromat).

6/30—Trans Rights & Community, focusing on urgent issues that affect trans people, like violence, access to health care, and unemployment, held on Action (@action).

Have a safe and beautiful Pride Month, Tumblr.

You are valid, no matter what.

Notice how Shan Yu doesn’t even question it or make a comment about “BUT YOU’RE A GIRL” he just instantly goes into a “I’LL TEACH YOU TO KILL MY MEN AND STEAL MY VICTORY” rage and I think about this a lot sometimes

[ruffnutthorstonthebesttwin-deac]

((Well that might have to do with the fact that he’s a Hun.  Women among the Huns had higher status than their Chinese counterparts and even some of their own men. Women were free to hunt and fight along side of the men, could choose their own husbands and divorce him if she choose to. There were even records of clans being led by women leaders. So for Shan Yu Mulan is just another soldier))

Amid the awe and tears, there is that moment of confusion when you first listen to DEH

[seaweedbrain1224-blog]

BEN PLATT FOR TONY AWARD PLEASE

Reblog if you agree.

If you seriosuly think our precious Benisn’t amazing.....

then good for you, you have thrown your life away to humankind and I will never wave back at you. You’ll be lost in an open field framed with trees for forever, and no one will have a map to find you. You’ll deserve to disappear even though no one deserves to disappear, and no one shall sing a requiem for you. 

[broadway-and-shit]

Everything I noticed when I listened to the DEH cast album for the first time without seeing the show in person

- EVERYTHING IS SO CLEAAAAAAR AND NOT A GRAINY RECORDING - For forever is so pure - RE-IN-VEN-TION - Nervous, adorable Evan during if I could tell her was the highlight of my life - Disappear makes you feel like you can write a 7 act opera and win the olympics whilst writing the great American novel - You will be found builds into this big chorus that is so TREMENDOUS AND AMAZING - I heard the title good for you and I thought it would be angsty aND I WAS RIGHT - Mike Faist The God™ - The harmonies in requiem killed meeeee - Words fail didn’t FAIL at making me cry - WHEN WORDS FAIL THROWS BACK THE WAVING THROUGH A WINDOW LYRICS AND MAN OH MAN WAS I SHOOK - So big / so small requires tissues - All I see is sky for forever in acapella was everything I needed and more
