btw I suddenly got super busy (in a good way though) and had to drop all series I was watching or was going to watch. went from 10 to 1, the one being Bed Friend which I absolutely will not delay watching by any amount of time. Will have a lot of catching up to do once things calm down again in May.

[trytojudgemeseeitdoesntwork]

I feel it in the water. I feel it in the earth. Soon it is time again to watch LotR directly followed by the 12 hours of dvd extras.

[trytojudgemeseeitdoesntwork]

now that this is done I inevitably move on to the 55 hours of the unabridged audiobook. I don't make the rules.

The clown inside me thinks Net would have paid money to play King.

[djeterg19]

Was anyone else expecting King to smell the shirt here? Or have I just been watching too many BLs?

[trytojudgemeseeitdoesntwork]

I could rewatch it 10 times I'd still expect it. We are conditioned.

So to answer the question: both. because we all watch too many BLs.

I think something I love about Moonlight Chicken is that you get three different generations of LGBTQ characters sharing the same space and you can see, through the subtleties of their interactions and their outlooks, the events and perspectives that have shaped them and how much (and how little) the world has changed.

You have Jim, nearing 40 and clearly shaped by countless people (including his loved ones) not welcoming who he is and who he loves and who believed, to a certain extent, that it was "normal" for people to think that way, who accepts himself but still has difficulty with what it means to be gay in the wider world.

Then you have Wen, 10 years younger and proud and open and comfortable with who he is and his place in the world. He knows all the lingo, he seems like a little bit of an activist (if his taste in decor is to be believed) and he's used to having discussions around sexuality and social norms.

Finally, Li Ming, even younger still and so comfortable in himself that he doesn't particularly feel the need to explore or explain his sexuality and his attraction to Heart, he just embraces it as another part of what makes him him and leaves the nail biting and the questions to other people.

They literally show us the transition from "being LGBTQ is something I must live with" to "being LGBTQ is something I must fight for" to, finally "being LGBTQ is one of the many bits that is me" without ever saying it out loud.

It's genuinely such a beautiful piece of commentary and, in my eyes, it makes the show even more meaningful and beautiful.

To all the people commenting that she’s an accessory to “illegal immigration,” note that seeking asylum is a human right. Countries which refuse asylum are in violation of the Geneva Convention. They get away with this and propagandize complacency towards the victims by using bureaucracy to complicate immigration proceedings. During times of genocide, this is tantamount to hearing a would-be murder victim knocking on your door and locking the deadbolt.

People who risk dying getting smuggled across borders do so out of sheer desperation because the situation they’re leaving is worse. Finally, you are missing the entire point: violation of the law is warranted when the laws violate human rights and criminalize existence. Laws which call immigrants “illegal” are tools of a systemic negligence designed to condemn those who need legal protection the most.

[joanofarchetype]

Oh and here’s the petition to #FreePia.

[anarchopuppy]

Even if we accept that this is “illegal immigration” and that’s somehow bad,

the appropriate punishment for illegal immigration is not the death sentence, and saving people’s lives is never the wrong thing to do, you fucking heartless monsters
