sexyback is a good song but the idea of justin timberlake being sexual disgusts me I don't even register him as a human being let alone a person or a man he's more akin to an old blind dog who pisses everywhere

i get that americans love their cultural imperialism, but it really does piss me off that june is “international” pride month just because something happened in the united states.

in aotearoa, june isn’t our pride, it’s theirs. marsha p johnson and sylvia rivera are their historical figures, not ours. the phrase that “you owe your rights to Black trans women” is true there, but here we owe our rights to (mostly) Māori historical figures. i have the freedoms i do because of the legacy of an entirely different set of people operating in an entirely different context at entirely different times.

But because of american cultural imperialism, most queer people in Aotearoa don’t even know our own queer history. Carmen Rupe, Ngahuia Te Awekotuku, the Dorian Society, Gillian Laundon, Georgina Beyer, and the Wolfenden Association are some of our queer history. We should know their names! we should know what they did for us! but because of the power of the american imperial machine, we don’t.

our national pride month should be july, the month that the Homosexual Law Reform Act passed in 1986. our two largest cities hold their pride festivals in february and march, respectively. american queer history has very little (or nothing, depending on who you ask) to do with our queer history. anecdotally, from my own queries, queer youth in aotearoa know more about american queer history than our own.

anyway, happy pride, americans. i’m truly sorry that most of you don’t see the negative impact your nation’s culture has on the rest of the world. and to the rest of the world reading this, try searching for your own country and culture’s queer history, don’t accept the american narratives as your own. we deserve our own histories divorced from the cultural hegemony of the USA.

you don’t realize how important lunch is until you’re wandering around thinking about how unloveable and untalented and uniquely cursed you are and then it’s 4pm and you finally eat lunch and you go Oh. oh right.

[podcastwizard]

lot of people commenting on this post like "who eats lunch at 4pm that's a terrible time to eat lunch" yes. that is the point. 4pm lunch is inadvisable. 4pm lunch is not the ideal. 4pm lunch makes the mind demons real.

most half hearted telling off this afternoon when i told a student off for singing 'israel killed charlie kirk' in a high pitched voice over and over. we can't say that. we need to add 'allegedly.' the kids are alright x

i forgive a lot of what aryna sabalenka does because there are a number of odious male tennis players wearing custom made suits and doing dances and beloved for being 'so funny' meanwhile aryna dares to have fun and be cute and be a bit emotional and temperamental and it's suddenly not the same. cos it's misogyny. it's misogyny bitch. not saying she is perfect but perhaps you could all come at jannik and carlos's 50 grand watch deals with the same energy you come at naomi for daring to have fun with tennis fashion or aryna for her jewellery. i hate men dog. ever notice how coco gauff has wisdom and intelligence and experience but is never lauded for being 'so young' but she is younger than carlos and everyone talks about how young he is all the time. misogynoir specifically. but also then lots of white WTA players are racist and exclusionary to coco and naomi and taylor and hailey. so i am seeing that. i see it cunts. anyway sorry for another 0 note tennis post. anyway mirra v marta is going to be so awkward again tonight unfortunately and what marta has said is correct

world cup mode on and damn american sports enjoyment is so performative. front row knicks seats letter jackets baseball caps. a who's who. european and uk football enjoyment is like. lads down the pub verbally abusing the opposing player's mother in law's recent instagram post and writing a song about it. there is a flare and a knife as well. lots of chanting. i know which one i'm more suited to

decades of hating charlie pickering vindicated for local woman today. it does pay to be a hater at times
