Your beats make me sick

#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#lan wangji#wei wuxian#a-yuan#wen qing#wen ning#This scene raised several implications that range from retroactively hilarious -#-to confrontationally horrifying.#First with the hilarious bit; Hey! We've seen this scene before!#In fact - this particular duet is so similar to the duet LWJ and WWX perform to calm the mystery arm in Cloud Recess-#-That I am honestly flabbergasted WWX *didn't* realize LWJ would catch on his real identity.#Sure there are a lot of ways you could justify it. But also...even if he didn't play Wangxian.mp3...he would have been found out eventually#"I have to get away from LWJ by annoying him via flirting!' uhhh like you pretty much did throughout most of your late teens?#I think there is something a bit charming about WWX if he's truly that bad of an actor. Go on king. Live your authentic truth.#For the horrifying implications...I didn't depict it here but it's not *just* Wen Ning who breaks out and goes into a frenzy.#It is also the other corpses that are around the burial grounds.#You know; the ones that even he admits he has no idea how many there are!#It puts a lot more weight on 'how much longer do you really think you can do this?'#The village in the burial grounds was *always* under a time limit. It was a matter of when and how it would be destroyed.#And I do believe that firmly. As depressing and pessimistic as it is; The Wen Remnants were never meant to survive.

hold my hand and say it with me: jackie taylor is not a femme
#why are people on tiktok so convinced she is it actually drives me crazy#feminity is not an authentic expression of identity for her… and it’s definitely not an expression of QUEER identity#when jackie gets away from the pressures of society she immediately starts dressing extremely masculinely for the subculture she’s a part of#like. she’s wearing MEN’s clothing. she’s dressing preppy but she’s dressing masculinely#like she’s taking the chance of being away from home to express herself the way she wants to#and the way she wants to express herself is through masculinity#like. what about that makes you think she’s FEMME.#i guess this is really nitpicky but it’s something that genuinely pisses me off bad#because it’s such a fundamental misunderstanding of jackie’s character and of queer gender expression#and of the gender presentations of people who belonged to certain subcultures in the 90s#a really similar thing happens with the masculinization of nat#who is a very feminine character by the standards of her time period and subculture#she doesn’t dress like a masc lesbian. she dresses like a girl who belongs to an alternative subculture in 1996#this says SO MUCH to me about how people perceive masculinity and femininity in relation to the perception of strength and capability#in relation to their perception of the strength and capability of people and characters#like….. these sort of perceptions and assumptions are misogynistic actually 😭 and i never see anyone talk about it#anyway. whatever. idk how many people are gonna agree with me on this but i wanted to say it anyway#jackie’s not fem. and nat’s not masc#jackie taylor#yellowjackets#yj#discourse

the way they both sidled up to each other. the way they kissed under the moonlight. the way they set and respected each other's boundaries. the hand holding, the thumb war, the gentle smile, the "you won." this is the queer representation i needed. queer people being unapologetically queer in all the gentle, sweet ways we know.
#our flag means death#ofmd#ofmd season 2#ofmd s2#gentlebeard#blackbonnet#rhys darby#taika waititi#stede bonnet#edward teach#ofmd spoilers#i'm not okay i'm like. actually in tears#you don't understand how much it means to me#to see queer people just. being queer#not being plagued by it. no one throwing a big fuss about it. no one needing to explain anything to anyone#to try to show that your identity and existence is authentic#to have to fight for it because you're told you can't be authentic if you're queer#the gentle love they show for each other#that is what queer love is about

"born to live"
darling, you were never born to die...you were born to live. you were born to feel the air splurge through your lungs, to feel the sunlight warming your back, to hear the birds sing early in the morning. may these little joys coat your existence akin to a warm blanket. may they keep your heart beating. never lose the childlike wonder locked in your core, too beautiful a thing it is to let go of.

i love how alice oseman as an aroace person wrote a really cute queer romance story, managed to make it become insanely popular, and then wrote not one, but two asexual characters into it with their own unique stories. this really has been a great year for all aspec heartstopper fans
#alice oseman really is carrying aro and ace representation on their back#isaac henderson is aroace!!#and tori spring is asexual!!#and both of them have their own stories that feel developed and authentic and a personality that goes beyond their identities#heartstopper#heartstopper comic#hstv#osemanverse#alice oseman#isaac henderson#tori spring#nines says things

Watson: “Well, we could start by making the alternative so unappealing that he wants to leave the flat and go to Dartmoor for few days…?”
Mariana: *laughs* “Okay. What are you thinking?”
…
*the sound of balloons being inflated*
Sherlock: “A party. We’re hosting. A party.”
Watson: “Yeah, mate. Big old shindig.”
Sherlock: “W-W…W-W-Why? W-Why would we do that?”

2025 reads / storygraph
Kiss Me, Maybe
contemporary romance
an ace lesbian has an accidental thirst trap go viral and uses the attention to talk about her experiences - which ends up developing into a silly idea to do a scavenger hunt where the winner gets to be her first kiss
she starts to plan it, with the bartender she’s had a crush on for years, and realises she’s starting to fall for said bartender - and as their relationship develops so does her understanding of her identity & connection towards her community
grey-ace lesbian MC
arc, out may 6!
#kiss me maybe#aroaessidhe 2025 reads#asexual books#sapphic books#I generally enjoyed this; I liked the characters and relationship and exploration of identity and desire for community.#was definitely bracing myself about the silly tiktok scavenger hunt plot - it definitely is silly but I think it could have been#a lot more annoying and drawn out than it was. I’m glad it stayed in the background for the most part.#I think it did a good job at exploring asexuality in a way that felt personal and also about her own identity#not just revolving around her feelings about the love interest (re: figuring out she’s greysexual)#I think the way it portrayed her not being exactly sure where she is on the ace spectrum felt authentic and relatable#also when there's a sex scene (essentially) at 40% I was like WOAH HUH but you know what. it works#There’s a bit where she says ‘i want everyone to know that my asexual identity means as much to me as my lesbian identity’ -#honestly her lesbian identity barely felt like it was part of the book. Like she’s a lesbian obviously.. but I didn’t feel like it#explored lesbian identity or community at all? I did like the small amount of exploration of her gender expression though#When the love interest was like ‘love isn’t for me’ ‘I can’t love’ etc and she’s like ‘noo :/ that’s so sad don’t say that’ I was like.#oh boy here we go again with the amatonormativity. But that is unpacked a little and there’s even a conversation#about the fact that the LI isn’t aro (it’s for other reasons). Still feel a little iffy about it but idk.#There’s definitely still a lot of ‘I’m 27 and never been kissed i’m so lonely and tired of being single’ et#c but I think she grows away from that a bit as the book goes on.#there’s frustrating moments but I found most of them were resolved/discussed pretty quickly.#I found it kind of vague about other aspects of her life - like her job at the library? did it mention she was studying something#but I don’t remember any details about what? I may have missed something in the audiobook.#I like the exploration of her other relationships (friends/relatives) though I could have used a bit more of those!#anyway - pretty good overall? could have been a lot worse lol

hello radiant emperor fandom. i heard you guys like dark historical fantasies about genderqueer warlords and their ruthless pursuit of Revenge and/or The Throne… well let me put you onto something:
need more emo femboys with daddy issues? doomed siblings? lord/vassal dynamics? romantic stabbing? corruption arcs? sexy masochism? you 🫵 should consider reading
Requiem of the Rose King by Aya Kanno
loosely based off Shakespeare's Henry and Richard plays, this manga follows intersex protagonist Richard III (yes he has straight black hair with the bangs covering one eye. yes it’s to hide his heterochromia) through England's War of the Roses.


(he is so cute don't you just want to see him snarling and covered in blood. don't you want to see him slowly abandon his ideals in a desperate bid to be accepted by the world that shunned and demonized him.)

battle, bloodshed, and court politics ensue! also because it's a shoujo manga, Richard becomes the psychosexual obsession of most of the male cast and engages in a toxic doomed relationship or two.
this is not a series for those looking for good queer rep, but perfect for anyone who wants to read about beautiful criminally insane people tearing each other's throats out and being horny about it. it is fun, violent, melodramatic, sexy, and utterly devastating. and although it is tonally very different from TRE, it has so many similar ingredients that i think it deserves to be on your radar. actually it deserves to be on everyone's radar, it's so fucking good and doesn't get anywhere near the attention it deserves...


yea there is an anime that is unforgivably ugly and so heavily censored it's a mystery why they even bothered to adapt it. would not recommend it at all but i guess you can watch it if you want, i am not the police.
actually no i changed my mind. Aya Kanno's work is stunning and deserves to be appreciated. ok case rested.
#the radiant emperor#swbts#rotrk#requiem of the rose king#shoujo manga#for posterity i am reiterating: the rep is not good this is not an authentic or realistic portrayal of intersex experience/identity#not to mention a handful of other questionable elements that i'm not going into here bc this is a rec post#regardless i think this series will hit for anyone who enjoys narratives that explore gender and dysphoria#not all of those hits are bullseyes but i still had a great time. no regrets would sob my eyes out in the middle of the night again#originally i wanted to make a general rec post for rotrk#but most of my followers are tre people so nobody else will see it anyway 👍#anyway thanks for coming to probably my most niche self-indulgent post yet#please nobody report me for nipple

Oh God I was really hoping the backstory that was leaked for Billy was fake... just heard about the new episode and it turns out it wasn't. why would they choose this over adoption or reincarnation-
It's bad! I really feel like the M C U goes out of its way to interpret these characters in bad faith and come up with the worst possible versions of their stories. I've said this before, but everything about Wanda's origins and the nature of her power seems designed to make her an objectively worse person who is more directly responsible for causing harm than her comics counterpart, but is also weirdly set on punishing her for existing and having trauma. She's simultaneously more doomed by the narrative, and infinitely less deserving of redemption.
With Billy, they took a situation that, while complex and, at times, difficult to parse, is ultimately miraculous and joyful, and they made it just.... incredibly grim. There is no real distinction between Billy Maximoff and Billy Kaplan in the comics-- they're the same person, given a second chance at life and the great fortune to reconnect with his original family, in a way that doesn't invalidate or erase the second. And, again, I want to emphasize that when YA and CC were written, Wanda had Jewish heritage, so I don't think there needs to be any awkwardness in the transfer between the Maximoff and Kaplan families, and the text never does anything to imply that Billy's cultural upbringing is any less valid, or any less central to his character after his origins are revealed.
Here, they created a false dichotomy between the two characters, killed one them off, and made the other into a body-snatcher. That is so much darker, and so much more tragic for the Kaplans-- and it creates uncomfortable questions about their relationship, and Billy's identity, that I don't think can ever be neatly resolved. I will say that, thus far, I don't think the show explicitly disavows "William's" heritage, or writes off Billy's relationship with the Kaplans, the way some people are reporting. He doesn't actually remember his life before the switch, so it's not a total takeover, and at points, the episode seems to imply that he's somehow both, and neither-- a new gestalt.
But I don't trust these writers to execute that concept with integrity, or even consistency. In WV and MoM, Wanda's motives, sense of self, and relationship to her powers repeatedly change at the drop of a dime, and we're seeing the same thing, here, with the abrupt change that takes place when Billy reveals his identity. The shift in personality, escalation of power, and the vague implication that he's been masterminding this whole excursion makes no sense with the established timeline-- this is all happening within 24 hours of him even learning that Wanda had kids, let alone that he might be one of them, not to mention hearing about both Agatha the Witches Road for the first time. And up until that point, he really was just an earnest kid. The heel-turn feels silly and juvenile, and the needle drop at the end of episode #5 underscores that a little too perfectly-- his "bad guy" act is just as ill-fitting and unsubstantiated as the Eilish's edgy, wannabe-thug aesthetics.
Obviously, the most important issue here is not the quality of writing, but where this character falls into the spectrum of whitewashing and erasure. The fact that Locke is not Jewish but, before the switch, is playing a Jewish character-- and, specifically trespassing on prayer and religious ceremonies-- is a problem. I've seen a lot of different opinions expressed by a lot of different people within the community about who can or can't play Jewish characters, but I think we can all agree that this is worth criticizing, especially given the larger context of repeated erasure and historical distortion against Jewish and Roma people in this franchise.
But I also want to emphasize that, because of what was done to Wanda, and the franchise's insistence on conducting blatant anti-Romani racism, there was never going to be a truly authentic or acceptable version of this character. Now matter how they cast the role, a significant part of his background had already been erased, and he was already saddled with significant racist baggage. I am very, very tired of white people and Young Avengers fans overlooking that fact.
#and I think I've said this before but I want to reiterate that I actually would have been okay with Billy and Tommy being played by#white jewish actors IF Wanda & Pietro had been correctly cast and written with authenticity and sensitivity.#Because I understand that getting 4+ actors who all perfectly match each character's compound identities is a very tall order! If these#different background had all been represented authentically and in a way that celebrates intersection (rather than denying it and throwing#other minorities under the bus the way so much of this fandom loves to do) I think a little flexibility would be just fine.#What we actually got is not fine. But it was never going to be-- this character was doomed from the start and I don't understand what kind#of hope you all were holding onto here.#billy kaplan#wiccan

i am once again begging gamers if all you care is ultra realistic graphics and mechanics go live real life. stop bashing games with no intention of being realistic for not being a 1:1 copy from reality.
"oh but the water is weird" you know what water ain't weird? the one on your sink go drink it see what happens. "the grass didin't move correctly" you can fix it by touching some irl. god knows you need it.
#the whole “game graphics” discussion pisses me off#having an authentic artistic identity is far more important than being realistic for the sake of being realistic#realism is the least interesting aspect of art#i am sorry#.txtpost

"you owe yourself"
don't you dare bring down past versions of yourself. presenting themselves as stepping stones which bring you a bit closer to yourself each single day, they are the only reason you still stand. it is not by chance that grown trees shade young seedlings with their lush crowns, rescuing them from the burning Sun. one of the primary things you owe yourself is to take care of your past versions. when sadness weaves around you like a cloak, when you wish to bring yourself down for past mistakes, when you lay awake at night contemplating each single action you have taken...do not indulge. speak patiently with the version of yourself which yearns for your comfort. have the strength to choose the option of overflowing with love and compassion. it is one of the the most loving acts you can perform towards yourself.

honestly, i really do wish the original dexter's laboratory series finale "last but not beast" was the final impression we got of mandark, because it was the perfect representation of his character and the last time we see the true character of mandark. some silly misguided kid who unfortunately used his genius to make everything worse.
i also find it interesting that dee dee is the only character who remembers the events of this finale, but she decided to let mandark believe he was the one who destroyed the monster. it's one of the few times in the series he gets to feel good about himself and she lets him keep that.
#i talk#dexter's laboratory#mandark#dee dee#i don't want to be one of those people who uses a parody episode of the show to base a thesis of a reading on#but uhhhh#dee dee is totally fine with mandark being an evil little guy. she was completely fine with it#she even reveals her secret identity as racer dee to him.#i know i am reading too far into this. but every time this guy is himself she's completely fine with it#it does read as dee dee likes it when mandark behaves like his authentic self
