DEAR BOOKLR COMMUNITY …

… the EYEWITNESS fandom really needs your help! I constantly see posts on Tumblr from people who want to see more diversity in media - books, tv shows, movies - and yet here we have a show that has a ton of diversity … but it’s about to be cancelled because of low ratings!

EYEWITNESS is a really great new suspense drama about two boys, Philip and Lukas, who witness a triple murder but have to keep it a secret because one of them is scared that people will find out he is gay. One of them happens to be the foster son of the local Sheriff (who, btw, is a woman!) who is investigating the murder. From there on the show has multiple plot strands that all tangle together at some point, but the romance between Philip and Lukas is at the heart of it all.

Speaking of which … these are the boys:

Reasons why you will love EYEWITNESS:

Complex and complicated love story between two boys (one comfortable with his sexuality, the other deeply closeted) that feels honest and real

Doesn’t shy away from showing physical intimacy between the boys (seriously, they are making out shirtless 7 minutes into the first episode!)

Tough kick-ass female characters

Lots of POC & LGBT representation

Defies gender stereotypes

Positive portrayal of foster kid with foster parents

Deals with important issues like PTSD, drugs and the challenges of coming out in a realistic way

Suspense and lots of plot twists you won’t see coming

A killer who is creepy as hell

An amazing cast!!!

Oh, and did I mention it’s actually well-written?

Unfortunately diverse shows never have it easy, especially if they focus heavily on LGBTQ characters / couples. Add to that the fact that USA Network has basically done nothing at all to promote this show, and you can imagine that ratings are really low. So low in fact that the show will get cancelled if ratings don’t go up drastically!

EYEWITNESS deserves better! And we as a fandom are trying to make that happen. We are trying to get more people to watch to increase ratings.  

So PLEASE … if you live in the US then please watch EYEWITNESS tonight (and the next few Sundays after that) at 10 PM on USA Network. If you can’t watch it live then please DVR it and watch it the next day. Or you can do both which according to the show’s producers will count for two viewings!!!

If you want to catch up on the first 5 episodes you can do so on the USA Network website or app, or you can get the episodes on VoD (iTunes, Amazon Video, etc).

For people outside the US, if you buy the show on iTunes or Amazon Video (if your country has it) then this will also contribute to ratings!!!

If you like the show, please tweet some love for it to @USA_Network and use the hashtags #Eyewitness and #Philkas!

Let’s show the world that we WANT stories with diversity (be they in books or on tv), and that shows which feature said diversity CAN be successful! Let’s show them that people will tune in for these kind of shows so that they will continue making them!

someone: why isnt that character as developed as ur other ones….

me: bc i havent found the right songs to daydream them to yet

[silverhawk]

when u find that perfect song to daydream a character to and u can finally plan out their story arc

[susiephone]

when will YA authors realize that the mr. darcy fantasy isn’t “hot rich guy is a huge dick to you” but “hot rich guy fucking respects and listens to you”

[inkbleeder]

“hot rich guy only seems like a huge dick because he has the social skills of an agarophobic lobster.”

[deepspacepirate]

The word “moist” is the Number One universally reviled word in the English language due to both its definition and the way it sounds. Similarly gross words include

chunks

curdling

squirt

munch

bulbous

pustule

sink

squirm

slippery

Which got me wondering, can I elicit the same emotions with words that have no meaning? And the answer is “Yes, yes you definitely can.”

So here it is: words and phrases that elicit “thanks, i hate it!” by sheer negative sonority

scrungo

beesechurger

mingus

hurgling

tungus

Scrimmy Bingus and the Crungy Spingus

slurm

chungus

crungle

gunch

But did you know you can make it even worse by combining them??

bucket of curdling chunks

the pustulous gunch muncher

your squirming tungus

this crungy beesechurger

a squirting chungus

the slurm sink

a slippery mingus

And my all time favorite

m y ⠀m o i s t ⠀s c r u n g o

[hesmagicandmyth]

Okay, “moist” actually doesn’t bother me, but I HATE every other word you put on here.  They make my skin crawl.  Why would you do something like this to innocent people?

[memecucker]

what if i told you that a lot of “Americanized” versions of foods were actually the product of immigrant experiences and are not “bastardized versions”

[ace-and-ranty]

That’s actually fascinating, does anyone have any examples?

[memecucker]

Chinese-American food is a really good example of this and this article provides a good intro to the history http://firstwefeast.com/eat/2015/03/illustrated-history-of-americanized-chinese-food

[voxiferous-deactivated20171119]

I took an entire class about Italian American immigrant cuisine and how it’s a product of their unique immigrant experience. The TL;DR is that many Italian immigrants came from the south (the poor) part of Italy, and were used to a mostly vegetable-based diet. However, when they came to the US they found foods that rich northern Italians were depicted as eating, such as sugar, coffee, wine, and meat, available for prices they could afford for the very first time. This is why Italian Americans were the first to combine meatballs with pasta, and why a lot of Italian American food is sugary and/or fattening. Italian American cuisine is a celebration of Italian immigrants’ newfound access to foods they hadn’t been able to access back home.

Stuff you Missed in History Class has a really good podcast overview of “Foreign Food” in the US.

This is actually super fascinating.

its “thighs rubbing together under ya sundress” season

[cephalopodvictorious]

Buy cute, cheap lace leggings. Cut them a little above your knee. Hem them or don’t, but then you can wear them under your sundresses and not worry about how you sit or if your thighs chafe, and if anyone sees them they look cute af so hell yes

[gutsygumshoe-blog1]

Or a little deodorant between the thighs is magical

[bastillearda2018]

Also, LUSH sells this dust called Silky Underwear that makes your skin smooth so they don’t stick together or chafe.

[erdsthenerds]

I love that we’re all here for each other in this season of need

[threehourstonevada]

Monistat has an anti-chafing gel that works wonders and I live by. You can usually find it in the feminine care aisle of any drugstore. 

[sweeeettay-deactivated20210523]

There’s this stuff called Glide…pretty cheap & works hella miracles

[dynastylnoire]

I’m so ready for sundress season.

“It’s just a script whats the problem lol” the problem is that Fox, CNN, CBS, and all the other channels repped here, despite claiming to be different companies with different viewpoints, all had the exact same script, word for word, to push the exact same viewpoint that smaller, independent news outlets are Fake News and “A Threat To Our Democracy.” The fact that they have scripts isn’t the problem. The problem is they all, each and every one, have the exact same script down to the letter and in some cases the fucking inflection, which basically reads “small news stations are untrustworthy and a Threat to your Way Of Life, only trust Us, We Are Verified.”
