Shoutout to the freaks . Shoutout to the little girls who flew through books quicker than any adult could because she didn’t know how to have friends . Shout out to the little boys who liked to play with dolls and took one to show and tell and learned that adults aren’t kind . Shoutout to the therians . Shoutout to the furries . Shoutout to the people who draw themselves with fictional characters . Shoutout to the autistics with “creepy” or “concerning” interests . Shout out to the people who were told something about them was unnatural or gross . Shoutout to the littles who don’t regress in sunshine and rainbows . Shoutout to anyone who was called weird in middle school . We are freaks . We are strange . And to be honest , I like making them stare .
I’m tired of you using me. You’re the most selfish people I’ve ever met in my life. Look, I know you don’t care about being smart or going to school or anything else but just because your lives are such lost causes, don’t keep assuming that mine is.
Linda Cardellini as Lindsay Weir in Freaks and Geeks (1999-2000)

Sad to hear that we lost the Canadian legend Joe Flaherty yesterday 🙁 He will forever live on in SCTV, Freaks & Geeks, Happy Gillmore & more. To me he will always be Sam & Lindsey’s dad, Mr. Weir
