I love this new trend of people pointing out inconsistencies and weird logic in video games out of love and interest instead of smart guy snark.

Like look at this waterfall. It’s flowing the wrong way. Isn’t that fascinating? Someone put that there. I like looking at it.

As an older queer, allow me to say: the walls of the closet are load-bearing. It is our job as a community to stand in front of that door and tell everyone who wants to peek inside to fuck off.

There are so many reasons a person may choose not to come out and there is no reason a person would owe the public or a stranger that information. Certainly it's not owed simply because someone is famous.

We have fought for decades to make it safer for people to be open and authentic about themselves, but we are not yet there. And even if we were, the closet would still be something we need to maintain for those who are not ready to reveal that part of themselves.

May we never become so obsessed with representation that we forget the sanctity of privacy.

Being critical of your interests is sooooo fun when you have the critic gene & then you sound kind of insane to the average tv watcher when you're like "this is my favorite show, It's Racist" & then you try to clarify what you mean & get that [Speech (legendary) - FAILURE] "the racism is really interesting though"

[tlirsgender]

[Speech (legendary) - SUCCESS] I find the sociopolitical context of pulpy old sci-fi born circa the civil rights movement really fascinating to analyze especially when it was progressive for its time but still reveals the writers' unexamined biases in the subtext

[tlirsgender]

Now to the untrained eye you might be thinking. Wouldn't you rather watch a show that isn't racist? But that's the fuck of it all, nothing is free of The Context and The Subtext. Everything is lowkey racist. And I like star trek

frothing at the mouth because my friend suggested a drunk shakespeare play where every single actor is drunk except for horatio and he has to try to keep the play on track while still having his own part to play

everyone shut up, i need to be alone with this person

Those who think that wisdom and whimsy are mutually exclusive have neither. It's vitally important to do the right thing when the consequences are dire, and to do a whole bunch of utterly frivolous silly dumb shit when it doesn't matter what you do.

[localcryptidsteg]

Often, the wise thing must be disguised as silly frivolous dumb shit in order to actually work

Every year I watch that white boy go, with no way of warning him. No way of letting him know. Helplessly watching him devour his paprika chicken before journeying the road to his doom. Don’t go, white boy. Don’t go.

fun things to slip into conversation include

“i’m kinda fucking w/ the fourth wall here but-”

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

“I’m only saying this for foreshadowing purposes”

[nienna14]

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

“oof that’ll hit the ratings”

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

“that’s not gonna make it past the censors”

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

“i’m still amazed this project got greenlit”

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

“in this political climate???”

[hedgehogradio]

Crazy how 6 years later, the quirky inserts just became mainstream vernacular. Aint that right, chat?

reality jumped the shark so bad the whole writer’s room got fired and now we’re all meta-aware
