Pride Steve 2019 Redraw – [Etsy] 

[thischairismyhomenow]

I realized upon another rewatch that The OC is really Boy Gilmore Girls

And when I say “boy” I don’t mean it’s FOR boys. It’s ABOUT boys but it’s FOR girls who would rather look at coastal California instead of small town Connecticut (me)

Taylor Swift's Last Album Sparked Bizarre Accusations of Nazism. It Was a Coordinated Attack

Data analysis from startup GUDEA reveals inauthentic social media network that pushed false narrative about her ties to MAGA world and white

Yeah the whole “she’s a tradwife neo nazi who loves trump and eugenics” was a bot campaign and some of y’all fell for it. dumb dumbs

this isn’t about taylor anymore — please learn the bigger lesson. your biases are being manipulated. they are the front lines of grey zone warfare. your snark subreddit is playing right into it

think taylor knew that if she waited until AFTER Eras to release a new album, the expectations would be so large and looming that there would be no way she could possibly live up to them. that scared her. the result is that she created two (two!) very flawed albums during the biggest tour of all time to date. while i enjoyed these albums for all the highs (and some of the lows), they both felt like first drafts in a lot of ways (much of the production on TTPD and many of the lyrics on TLOAS).

we will never know what these albums might've sounded like if they'd been her sole focus, but then again i don't think they would've even existed if it weren't for the business, angst, and thrill of the Eras Tour.

ultimately i'm glad she decided to just keep making things instead of waiting for perfection. neither of those albums are going to be considered career bests in the long haul, but they did help her set new records and reach new audiences. strike while the iron is hot and the world has its eyes on you like never before. why not? most of all i think TTPD and TLOAS helped her learn as a songwriter, maybe from her mistakes moreso than her hits. this is all part of being an artist.

hopefully her 13th will be The Main Event...instead of the thing she made in secret to vent or celebrate during The Main Event.

(personally i hope it's an acoustic rock album called Alison. but that's just me.)

chronically online losers banded together on reddit tiktok and twitter to side with a man who turned out to be a sexual abuser and a manipulative asshole and gleefully participated in an orchestrated smear campaign against a woman who was a victim of harassment? what?! who would have ever thought this could happen! again!

[thischairismyhomenow]

for real though people have GOT to stop falling for this 80s movie trope bullshit as if it's real life. the pretty blonde popular girl is NOT always secretly evil (you're just insecure and projecting) and the sensitive, brooding guy is NOT always the hero (you just want male approval)!

sad reality of the fanfic-to-published work economy is that the weirdest people are willing to do it. that's why there's now hundreds of shitty no plot cishet hate-to-love enemies-to-lovers books that are ex reylo fanfic. and it's not even good. that's because the people who wrote book-quality steve/bucky and kirk/spock fic are too normal to think to themselves "i should get this porn published". they're too busy working in local government offices

i hate that twitter post going around that's like "what's america's great epic?" shut up you know what it is. its supernatural

listen. i know it's not 2014 anymore and i know it's just a throwaway line and that the russo brothers didnt intend for marvel action blockbuster captain america the winter soldier to become the tragic gay love story that never was but man. having steve say "it's kind of hard to find someone with shared life experience" in a conversation about romantic relationships right before the bucky reveal is so cruel. it's not just about steve and bucky obviously having the shared experience of being "out of time," it's the fact that they've both been stripped of their humanity in opposite directions. steve is a legend, he is an american hero and a national icon before he is a human being the same way that bucky is a weapon and a killing machine before he is a human being. steve knows that anyone who falls in love with him in the 21st century fell in love with captain america first, and that's just not him. but then the one person who knew him first and knew him best and loved him (not captain america, that little guy from brooklyn) so much he died for it is alive, impossibly. and it's a miracle because he's back and it's horrific because he's back under the worst possible circumstances. but to steve, the winter soldier is worth tearing the world apart for because he's always been bucky first. they find each other and suddenly they're human again. and maybe, despite it all, being "out of time" becomes a blessing, because in this century they'd finally be allowed to love each other the way they've always wanted to. like real people do.

like. no. the captain america trilogy isn't about two queer men traumatized and alienated by war and modern life rediscovering and reclaiming their humanity through their love for each other. but. i mean. it couldve been
