OLIVER STARK as Ryder in INTO THE BADLANDS (2015-2019)

Happy pride to the Brazilian prime time soap opera that just introduced an asexual character!!! And he's a forty-something year old man!!! Who had no idea the word asexual even existed!!! Even though he had always felt like that!!! And it was treated so well!!! His sister said she didn't understand but that she didn't need to understand to love him!!!

Can you tell I'm crying? Prime time soap opera has basically dictated what Brazilian discuss and embrace since the dawn of television!!! I'm so fucking happy

I've seen a lot of "first date gone wrong shenanigans" but what about a "friend hang where everything goes so right, they're forced to call it a date" for them? Eddie buys Dodgers tickets for him and Chris. Chris says, "Dad, are you crazy?!?!?! I have three tests and two essays ALL due Friday. I do NOT have time for this" because Mr. I Puke Over the Stress and Pressure of Chess definitely cares about his grades. So, Eddie texts Buck and says, "I have an extra ticket, you in?" and Buck responds, "A night with the Diazes? Wouldn't miss it for the world" and Eddie says, "well. Actually. Just me. :(" and Buck goes, "I'll pencil you in then, if I must :)" But then Buck is driving to Eddie's because Eddie is going to drive them to the game, and he stops at the store first. To get Chris study snacks because he's trying to suck up to him post-Texas. The cashier is like, "here. Someone paid for these roses but then dramatically took a phone call with their girlfriend and said they no longer needed them. I think they broke up. They're yours now." So, Buck brings roses to Eddie who is like, "uhhhh, wow" all rosy (pun moderately intended) cheeked and Buck is like "yeah haha I got them for free, BUT they'll look so much better here!!!!!!!!" (they both miss him living there, but couldn't think of a logical reason for him to actually stay) And they go to a restaurant first, and the couple next to them gets engaged. Turns out to be like some rich LA couple, so they buy everyone in the restaurant a bottle of wine to celebrate. So, Buck and Eddie are just like chilling, sharing this bottle of wine, and the couple next to them is talking about their plans for the future and Buck and Eddie are eavesdropping and smiling at each other and feeling light and happy. Then they get to the game finally, and a couple asks them to take their photo, because tourists, and then they offer to return the favor and Buck and Eddie now have a picture of them in front of Dodger Stadium and Buck "jokingly" sets it as his phone background, which makes Eddie take a picture of Buck but super zoomed in on one of his eyes, and he "jokingly" makes that his phone wallpaper because they're being giddy and stupid and maybe a little 30-something men flirty. And the Dodgers win and neither of them care or notice. They decide to take a walk after, maybe at the beach, maybe in the neighborhood of South Bedford because Buck "misses the area". And when they're walking it just feels right to hold hands, and then maybe when they go to say goodnight it just feels right to share a first date sort of kiss. And they don't really talk about it, they just go on dates and start treating each other like boyfriends and all of this is fine with them until Maddie is like, "okay, wait, when did you guys actually start dating? Like when is the anniversary? Also how did this happen?" and Buck and Eddie are like shrugging, Buck is saying, "maybe that dodger game? maybe non-exclusively years ago? I guess I don't really know, just sort of happened." And Eddie is just like grinning, "See Buck, the universe doesn't scream, sometimes it just whispers."

Fuck It Friday

It's basically Friday and I'm desperate to share this bit of the 5x06 fic I just edited so here 🥰

(interact with the tag list post (here) if you want to be tagged when I post this fic 🥰)

They don’t talk as they make their way into the house, or as they take their shoes off, or as Eddie grabs them both a glass of water. Placing the glasses on the table, Eddie takes a step forward and reaches out a hand to graze his thumb over the injured spot on Buck’s forehead, his index and middle finger resting lightly on the hair just above his ear. Both the act and the softness of it steal Buck’s breath. His eyes fall shut against his will, until Eddie pulls his hand back with a jolt, as if he suddenly realises where he is and what he’s doing. The ghost of that touch lingers as they go through the relevant medical checks, as Eddie decides Buck is medically fine, as Buck finally asks for some pain meds. He swallows them down, and places the glass of water on the counter, too tense to sit down right now. “Everyone else is pushing me away,” Buck says. They’re the first words either of them have spoken since leaving Bobby and Athena’s. “Why would you be any different?”

Ravi knew they were absolutely right about being adopted against their will into the group when Hen dragged them past the other dozen or so members of the 118, to where Bobby, Eddie and Chimney were waiting by the rainbow-covered truck. This year it was actually the 118’s ladder truck that was going to be driving in the parade, and a part of Ravi wondered if the sheer prevalence of queer people in the 118 had given them that honor.

Ravi joins the 118 crew in a pride parade for the first time. It’s not like they were in the closet before, but they’re definitely out now, and it’s definitely for the better. @911pride Day 1: Parade!

whenever I think about 8x15 I think about the fact that it happened to be the ONE episode I watched at my partners, and as I walked out of the room to watch it I joked 'aha off to watch bobby nash die! see you in the aftermath' and then walked back into the room an hour later with tears running down my cheeks and just went:

'... they actually killed him off...'
