*grabs your hands and speaks to you in a tone that is so gentle* they/them pronouns stop being universal once you learn a person's pronouns. Sometimes that person's pronouns will include they/them and in that specific case you are allowed to keep using those pronouns for that person. In any case where you learn a persons pronouns and that person doesn't use they/them, you should no longer use those pronouns for that person. If you continue to use they/them pronouns knowing that person doesn't use them, you are now misgendering that person. Kindly stop doing that please. Thank you, I love you.

it is so important that you are a little bit ugly. please get comfortable with having unplucked eyebrows and nonexistent jawlines and wrinkles. let your blue hair grow out into an uneven pale green and your clothes be old and mend them and modify them until they’re unique to you. wear lipstick which doesnt compliment your skintone and mismatched outfits which went out of fashion 5 years ago. be a little bit too loud and a little bit too passionate and as weird as you can be because oh my god there is nothing more disturbing to me than perfection. beauty is manufactured and sold to us and you need to realise that you are a fucking animal to live a joyful life I am so serious. you cant obsess over aesthetics forever please just live messily and make your body your home however you please.
if you dont do it for you, do it for all the teenagers who will see u in the street and know that they are not obligated to be attractive

Ice cold takes from a Transgender Woman:
Men are not inherently Evil
Everyone has the capacity for evil
Transgender Men are men
Transgender Women are women
Excluding Cisgender Men from your spaces requires Transgender Men to out themselves if they want to engage (Same for Women)
Anyone can be Non-Binary, there is no "look" or requirement
Non-binary masculine presenting people should be welcome in queer spaces, many are just treated as men and predators
Non-binary feminine presenting people should be welcome in queer spaces without being seen as "Woman-Lite"
Edited the wording on the first point because too many terfs keep thinking I'm their friend.

Steve Randle cried when Dallas Winston died.
Ponboy didn't. Two-Bit didn't. Darry didn't. Hell, even Sodapop didn't.
The fandom overlooks Steve (myself included) because Pony doesn't really talk about him, because he just sees him as Soda's friend.
But before Dallas' body was even cold, Steve cried for him.
And it's fucking me up

Ponyboy Curtis does not like to be babied.
He does not “pretend to be asleep” in the car or on the couch to get Darry to carry him to bed. He just rests his eyes sometimes because he’s comfortable, so Darry assumes he’s asleep and goes ahead and picks him up before Pony can protest. And then Pony does pretend to be asleep, but only because carrying a fourteen year old to bed like a toddler when said fourteen year old is actually awake would be really embarrassing. For Darry.
And he does not “get Soda to cuddle him to sleep” when they go to bed. It gets cold at night. And he runs cold. And Soda doesn’t run hot like Darry does, so really it’s just as much for Soda’s benefit as his own. And Soda’s the one who slings an arm around him first anyway, and he’s not gonna tell Soda to get off of him, cuz Soda’s real sensitive and it might upset him.
And he definitely doesn’t “lie in his brothers’ laps.” He lies on the couch and it ain’t his fault the couch is small and they don’t move out of the way when he stretches out so he ends up with his head on Darry’s thigh (which is totally different from a lap) and his legs on Soda’s legs (also not a lap). If anything, it just proves he’s getting taller, which is really the headline here.
Point is, Ponyboy Curtis does not like to be babied. He’s a tough greaser who’s already fourteen, he’s in a gang, he fights in rumbles, he even knows how to use a blade if he needs. So you better watch out, because he could beat the tar outta you for besmirching his rep with that kind of accusation. You’re lucky he’s so comfortable right now, curled up in Darry’s lap with his head against Darry’s chest listening to his heartbeat, with Soda behind him stroking his hair……….otherwise he just might.

Versions of The Outsiders if Ponyboy was truly an unreliable narrator in the classic sense:
1) when Pony starts insisting that he’s the one who killed Bob, gradually it becomes clear that he actually did. All this time he’s convinced himself - and the reader - that it was Johnny as a way to cope with his own guilt
2) all throughout the story we’re made to believe that Pony killed Bob, and we only learn that it was Johnny when Pony’s sick and starts saying out loud that he killed Bob, and the other characters try to correct him
3) we’re told that Johnny survived the fire until the very end when it’s revealed that he didn’t
4) there is no Johnny Cade. Pony gave himself an imaginary friend with abusive parents to cope with the death of his own loving ones. It continues to be a trauma fueled coping mechanism, like after Pony gets jumped he imagines his friend as a “kicked puppy” as a vehicle for his own fear, and after Darry hits him he imagines a friend who has it so much worse at home. Pony is jumped alone by the Socs, he kills Bob, he goes to Dally alone, he spends that week in the church alone. He “kills off” Johnny after the fire, either as a way of recognizing reality, or sinking deeper into depression
5) there is no Dallas Winston. Pony created a fight club-esque ideal greaser/hood alter ego. Johnny defends Cherry from some random greaser. Pony and Johnny hop a train and find the church by accident. Then when Johnny dies, Pony’s ideal untouchable, unaffected tough hood alter ego cracks. Maybe Pony is the one who commits suicide by cop, or he just imagines “Dallas” doing that
6) there is no Sodapop Curtis, it’s just Pony and Darry. Pony created an ideal emotional support middle brother to cope with the conflict between them.

This is just a little stupid dumb outsiders headcanon:
But the Curtis’ toilet seat is literally always up atp and it bothers Darry to death and he can’t explain why. Like it just looks like they have no home training and like they’ve just let themselves go but ofc the conversation never gets out of everyone being like “What? Do you sit when you piss…? 🤔”
