I do not want "queer characters." I want characters that ARE queer. I don't want characters whose entire personality is about their sexuality or gender identidy. Stories about the experiences of LGBTQ+ people are GOOD, and we NEED them, but we also need stories where the characters are just queer when the plot isn't ABOUT their queer experiences. I want action shows where the protagonist is gay and has a romance with someone of the same gender and the focus ISN'T their sexuality. I want mystery shows where the protagonist is TRANSGENDER because that is WHO THEY ARE and not what the PLOT is about. You know how fandom will headcanon characters as a specific sexuality, not because it's a queer story, but bcuz they WANT to see queer people in cool stories AND so they can ship them with their mortal enemies who the protagonist won't stop thinking about? I want THAT.

The push and pull of “relationships can be very affectionate and still be platonic” and “those are the gayest motherfuckers I’ve ever seen”.

it’s so funny when you watch a show or play a game where you know the fandom is super hype about a ship and you’re like “there’s no way they are actually like that™” but then you consume that media and are like “holy shit how did the fandom undersell how fucking gay these losers are”
