queue-gee replied to your post “rumored rv subunit and solo this year. what are your guesses?”

I like all of these guesses. Remember when Taemin was the surprise first soloist in Shinee when everyone thought it would be Jonghyun? SM might surprise us again. Yeri was the first with a solo smstation song. I wonder how these subunits will be scheduled as rv is due for their usual summer comeback in july.

Actually, I think Wendy was the first. It was some Christmas song. But yeah Yeri has been putting in work with learning to write and compose.

Yeah, I don’t know where the rumors came from about the solo and units. I don’t know what’s going on.

i like your piece on oitnb. What about The L Word? Progressive, kind of progressive, or not really?

I’m not sure anymore.

When The L Word was on, it was my world. I absolutely loved it and was thrown into a rage at even the slightest criticism of it.

That was because I was 17 lol and well, I don’t need to tell you how incredible that show was for me, a literal baby queer. To suddenly have this show all about who I was with characters that were like me felt beyond validating.

Pretty much like a year or so after the show ended, it’s like I just woke up. I realized how terrible it was. Just stereotype after stereotype. Biphobic as hell. Every terrible trope was included like they were trying to break some record of how many they could fit in. Also, could there be more cheating??!??

Their one black lesbian character was an angry brooding woman who sucked all the life out of every scene she was in and that of her bubbly happy white sunflower girlfriend who was also a fan favorite (def my fave character). And their relationship was just painful to watch, ALL they did was argue. They also a black lesbian who Bette cheated on Tina with. Papi, the latina lesbian character was …honestly just a damn caricature (like…her name was Papi first of fucking all). Erica Cerra’s character was lovely aside from the whole vampirology thing, which ultimately, made her more of a fetish piece. I don’t remember a single relevant Asian woman. So, not a great show for qwoc. At least we had Carmen and that probably wasn’t great (she was played by an Iranian actress, that was confusing) but I’m not in a position to speak on it.

But, ultimately, it was pretty HUGE for the culture. It was all we had. I think for its time it was progressive in its existence. 

Speaking of reboots, I believe there’s one coming. I think this is a show that NEEDS one (preferably with all new characters). Writers of THIS social and political climate need a stab at what TLW was supposed to be and could be if we get it now.

Hey there, I was wondering if you could signal boost our Youtube webseries Instrumental Closet, produced and made by A Redefining Gaze Productions? It’s about four qtpoc in a band trying to figure our identity, love, and their relationships with each other

Signal boost!

K. E. C. H. (Just kidding.) U. P. (I wish I could have put a T in there.)

if I hadn’t just yelled at my screen in anguish over the word ketchup i’d be impressed you chose an actually versatile word for this. (I’m still impressed but ketchup is still my enemy)
