So apparently last year the National Park Service in the US dropped an over 1200 page study of LGBTQ American History as part of their Who We Are program which includes studies on African-American history, Latino history, and Indigenous history. 

Like. This is awesome. But also it feels very surreal that maybe one of the most comprehensive examinations of LGBTQ history in America (it covers sports! art! race! historical sites! health! cities!) was just casually done by the parks service.

We used it in my LGBT history class and it’s SO WONDERFUL I LOVE it PLEASE READ at least some chapters. It has photos and sources and goes into detail in footnotes when it doesn’t have time for a tangent.

hello all of the Dirk Gentlys Holistic Detective Agency fans! reblog/like this post if you still like, watch, or think about the show in general. i want to see how many of us there are. also please talk to me about it i’m so bored

[mewbotz-deactivated20210224]

college au where everyone is afraid of geralt bc he looks scary and wears all black and doesn’t talk to anyone and doesn’t show up to class all the time and ppl think he’s like. definitely done something illegal, like killed someone. 

but when ppl do see him around campus, he’s always with jaskier, his very mismatched boyfriend

and ppl always comes up with theories about how he and jaskier, his sunshine lollipops and very musically and socially talented boyfriend got together

someone says jaskier’s loud mouth got him in trouble and geralt saved him, like some fairytale and it was love at first sight

another says jaskier’s the one who saved geralt bc they saw jaskier throw a bottle at a guy for making a snarky comment about his boyfriend and jaskier’s definitely the scary one i swear it guys

others say jaskier is some sort of rich boy and geralt’s his bodyguard bc his family wouldn’t let him go to college for music unless he’s got a babysitter

in reality they’re both huge nerds who met at a Renaissance faire when history major geralt said jaskier’s hat is tacky and his doublet shouldn’t be That unbuttoned, i can see your undershirt and jaskier was like “why are you looking at my unbuttoned doublet, my eyes are up here oh no ur hot”

At this point, I just want to make people wonder if I'm a time traveller when they see me.

No male WWI pinups exist yet so my gay ass decided to change that at 1 AM and I ended up looking like a propaganda poster with homoerotic undertones so

[my-darling-boy]

Some of you mistook the belt around my tunic for me wearing a crop top, but then I thought, what if it WAS a crop top instead?

[my-darling-boy]

“No Charles, I will not be taking criticism” I say whilst making direct eye contact with my WWI soldier ancestor’s portrait hanging on the wall in full view of me wearing my uniform with tiny shorts posing like an Edwardian renter in front of my phone taped to a tripod at 2:26 AM

[my-darling-boy]

People told me they want more so here’s to being anti-war!! War is a trap lads!! Lord Kitchener’s ghost is going to manifest in my room after I post this but I WILL fight him!!

There are characters you like but then there are characters you end up thinking about in the middle of the night with a cosmic ache in your chest because they resonate with you so much

[baluhm]

can’t believe jk rowling wrote 16 year old draco dramatically draping himself across pansy as she stroked his hair and expected people to read it as pansy having a crush on draco and not just a moment of gay/lesbian solidarity between two kids who love being the centre of attention

Things I Love about Dirk Gently

Peak two brain cells representation, nobody knows what’s going on or what they’re doing, not the heros, not the villains, nobody

How it starts out throwing the most random ass plot lines and it’s really confusing, and looks like a complete mess but it starts making sense and it all comes together you’re like “oh shit! Everything is connected”

Every woman is so feral and unhinged and wild. I want to elope with all of them

Yes, I can dedicate a bullet point sorely for Bart because she’s great and I love her

The really sweet found family vibes between Dirk, Todd, and Farrah

Idk It’s just nice seeing a dark skinned woman in a leading role

The whole show is actually casually kind of diverse in this nice sort of way

I really like the magic system. It’s just a really fascinating idea of a controlled but uncontrollable superpower and being connected and bound to the universe

Dirk is just so adorable with all his cute puppy faces

It’s just got this really comforting and sweet theme of forgiveness, friendship, finding you’re place in the world, identity, and being in control of your life

Things I Don’t Love about Dirk Gently

How dare you. How dare you leave me with that. I want more. I need more.
