McQ is a better man than me because if my senior citizen boytoy took me the eras tour vip tent and I heard Taylor sing “Karma is the guy on the screen coming straight home to me” I’d be so smug and insane they’d classify it as a new disorder in the dsm

I just recently remember this, but if you found this interesting I would recommend this Vanity Fair article:

I also read In the Closet of the Vatican years ago, but I found this article to be more nuanced and realistic and less sensationalist.

The gay implications of Conclave are not about the old many yaoi-ification of the movie but instead about a community where so many people's decision to join was in part because of the lack of any kind of allowable gay public life and the implications of continuing to live that life in an institution that doesn't allow this when the western world now for the most part allows gay people to exist in public and live their lives.

Up until very recently (80s or so) religious life existed as a haven outside the confines of heterosexual marriage and for all its sins and faults and the issues with mandated celibacy is an environment that encourages fulfilling and loving friendships between men and men and between women and women.

I feel like I can't word this eloquently and its now honestly beyond Conclave but I feel like a lot of people don't know about this dynamic and how it still exists today. Obviously there are the priests who are fire and brimstone homophobes and though I hate the stereotype about this for some it really does come from a place of self loathing. But for all of those priests there are also many who are gay and fine with it even if they don't talk about it and are living in with the tensions of all these things. And I think examining the sexuality of Conclave is more interesting in this lense.

in regards to Pope Francis' passing, i need you to be brave. we must hold onto hope. it is all we have. we can't allow anticipatory grief stifle us. we must trust God, we must trust in the mission Pope Francis spent his entire papacy building. NO DEFEATISM. NO FEAR-MONGERING. NO DOOMER SHIT. DO YOU HEAR ME?

our faith is that of an empty tomb. hope when all hope seems reckless, naïve, purposeless. never lose heart.

If Vance isn't even a little concerned that he might have killed the pope then you know without a doubt that he's a performative fake catholic

We no longer have a pope who knows gay slurs that are used almost exclusively within the queer community in Italy, sadge
