Just Found Out Jamil's Afraid Of Bugs. Kinda Cool We Share That In Common, But Kinda Weird That A Guy Who Lives In A Literal Desert Is Afraid Of Bugs

Remus is the guy you take home to your parents and they instantly like him more than they like you.

I'm processing a lot of emotions tonight and I keep being drawn back to Good Omens--not just because it's the new hyperfixation or because it's so good. That's what I thought it was, at first.

But this year--hell, the last 3 or 4 months especially, I finally started taking steps to accepting and being myself. I'm rapidly approaching middle age and I'm only just now beginning to feel like I'm allowed to be me. I came out to the people in my household, a few select friends, and a few select family members--most of whom were wholly supportive. I started testosterone injections. I stopped trying to be someone I'm not. I stopped hiding who I am and who I love.

What does this have to do with Good Omens? Nothing. But also... Everything.

So much queer representation is in characters vastly younger than me--and that's good! I want queer kids to feel safe and loved and accepted in ways I never did. They deserve better than we had. And it gives me hope for their futures. I bawled like a baby when I watched The Owl House with my son and he was totally unphazed by the queerness. It's just how people are to him.

But when something like Good Omens comes along and not only grabs every opportunity to show average, everyday old(er) queer representation... It just. I've never felt more seen. More accepted. More hope for all our futures. And season 2 just knocked that out of the fucking park. And the nonbinary, genderfluid, and genderqueer rep? My God.

And it's not subtext, it's not it's own separate plotline where they're fighting for acceptance or dealing with hateful bigotry... It's just... Accepted. It's normal. No one questions it. No one even comments on it.

It's people of any age (even millions of years old) being unapologetically themselves and loving who they love openly and fully (with one notable uncommunicative group of two ineffable idiots, but they'll get there).

I just.

I can't express how grateful I am to see older queer rep at this time in my life. It's been a rough year, and I expect it'll get rougher before it gets better. But I've never been happier in my own skin, and it means the absolute world to see my literary and media heroes like Neil Gaiman, David Tennant, and Michael Sheen (and Terry Pratchett and everyone who worked on Good Omens, honestly) making this beautiful, messy, adorable, excruciating, wonderful, heartbreaking, ethereal, down-to-earth tale.

There aren't enough words in all the languages of the world to express how I'm feeling. "Thank you" just feels... Insufficient.

I just hope they know how much it means to people like me, especially after a lifetime of buried subtext and overt queerbaiting and media ridicule and general lack of acceptance, to experience this story with them.

How many followers do you have Heidi?

More than enough ❤️

I think it’s important to remember that the number of followers you have don’t define your worth or the value of your content!

Ppl should focus on creating and sharing content that resonates with their target audience/community, rather than get caught up in the numbers. ♡

Okay, next time I'm on desktop, I'll add this to my frequently asked questions BUT

CELEBRITY FAMILY FEUD

The episode has not aired yet. It hasn't even been announced properly and given a public airing date.

They announce one episode a week. Through August 20th is currently announced.

There's at least 3 more episodes that will be announced in the coming weeks. Hopefully, 911 is announced sooner rather than later.

I will post when it is announced.

Something about I love you-s and believing them.

rip to gregory eddie but if i were on a date with a beautiful and weird paramedic who looked like lana condor i wouldn't notice anything else going on

every dps fan has had this as their header/pfp at some point. I am judging...

[hazel-callahan]

i find it fascinating that bottoms (2023) hasn’t had a full pirated stream yet. because it’s clear that the audience is not shy about taking out a phone and recording their favorite scene to post on twitter dot com.

my theory is that people are genuinely enjoying the movie so much that they can’t bare to focus on holding the device long enough, because all they want to do is actually enjoy and watch the funny silly gay movie they paid to see.

[fallingtopeaces7]

thinking about that bernie wrightson illustration where the creature is confronting victor and he looks like he's in a nightgown that's slipping off one shoulder, presumably to better display the bulging neck situation

[eating ramen and suddenly remembers that c!tommy never got to keep anything. not his stuff, not his home, not his community, not his friends, not his family, not his peace of mind, not his safety, not his sense of self, not his trust, not his life.

and yet all the while the people around him told him how selfish he was again and again, how he just had to learn to let go, how it was His fault for wanting things, even as all he had to his name was dirt. even when those people cared for him and were convinced they were doing the right thing.

Just Learn The Lesson And It Will Get Better. and he tried. he tried again and again and again. after doomsday, after his death, after dream's escape, after wilbur left him alone on a beach. but the rug never stopped pulling itself out from under him, no matter how much he simplified his needs.

He Only Wants People, He Only Wants To Feel Safe, He Only Wants To Be Able To Trust, but that's still too much to ask. he still must lose.]

yeah i think if gorgug had told porter to fuck off immediately the mcat would’ve been signed, but also if porter had the “rage can be healthy” convo with gorgug straight up first day of junior year if not much, much sooner, gorgug would have had a much smoother path to success in barbarian AND artificer classes. and one of these makes more sense to happen because ONE IS AN ADULT TEACHER WHO SHOULD BE PRIMING HIS STUDENTS FOR SUCCESS AND THE OTHER IS A TEENAGER—
