Hey, you!

Yeah, you!

Do you crave more ✨canon queer stories✨ in your fandom experience? Are you begging for more major character representation that you don’t have to headcanon for yourself?

Then have I got the kickstarter for you!

The Tin Can Bros (a comedy trio and makers of live theatre, digital sketches, webseries, you name it! You might know them from all the work they’ve done with Starkid—founding Tin Can Brothers Joey and Brian played Ron and Quirrell in A Very Potter Musical) are launching a brand new season of projects, most of which contain QUEER MAJOR CHARACTERS AND THEMES. These guys have got gays, they’ve got lesbians, they’ve got trans and gnc characters, they’ve got wholesome first love and Hannigram levels of fucked-up toxicity. It’s a whole cornucopia!! They’re planning to produce work in Los Angeles, NYC, London, Edinburgh, and Adelaide, but there will be digital tickets so you can watch where ever you are!

We’ve got:

-Two Rocky Horror-style concerts of the cult-hit, spy-movie parody musical Spies Are Forever. Gay protagonist who will sear himself into your heart! Seriously, his relationship with fellow spy Owen will emotionally destroy you for at least seven years.

-A concert of the developing musical This Could Be on Broadway, which follows a group of high school kids putting on a production of The Matrix: The Musical (not a show in real life) in their theatre department. A bunch of the central kids are canonically some flavor of queer, and there’s a central, very sweet lesbian romance that includes a trans character. She’s played trans actress Esther Fallick, who also worked with TCB as a consultant to make the character and show as authentic as possible. Seriously, if you want to see a trans teen thriving in their own skin, this is the show for you.

-An Edinburgh Fringe Fest production of The Solve It Squad Returns, a Scooby-Doo parody that follows the parodic versions of the Scooby Gang when they reunite as fucked-up adults to finally confront the almost-twenty-years-past traumatic murder of their dog Cluebert. I promise it’s funnier than it sounds. Esther, the Velma-esque super genius, is gender non-conforming and identifies with they/them pronouns. They also have a girlfriend WITH a boyfriend!

-A workshop reading of the QUEER SCI-FI TELEVISION COMEDY PILOT Intelligent Life. Unlike the other projects I’ve mentioned, this one is new to the TCB fans, but will follow a pair of ex-boyfriends forced to survive together in an extra-terrestrial colony. From the sound of it, there will be plenty of queer supporting characters as well. This frankly sounds like it could be tumblr’s dream show, and it’d be great to support its development.

-The Great Debate—a live comedy game show where comedians debate silly things. While this obviously won’t have narrative gay rep like the other projects, it will showcase gay talent (at the very least, Tin Can Brother Corey will participate in every show) and may include debates involving queer topics.

-Gross Prophets, in which three wannabe gurus/cult leaders lead a seminar on the path to enlightenment. This is a completely new stage musical so I honestly don’t know if it will contain any queer characters or themes. But the TCB queer track record is pretty good!

Guys, I’m so genuinely so excited by this season. But all this awesome queer art won’t happen unless we get their kickstarter funded. And they need our help! So let’s get fundraising!!

TLDR; Comedy group Tin Can Bros are attempting to fund a season positively filled with queer stories and characters, and they need help! If you want to support the creation of queer theatre and the development of queer TV, consider checking them out and giving to the kickstarter!

i’ve been thinking a lot about how like i fly to singapore so much that if you put together all the flights i’ve taken i could’ve been all around the world and how i’m literally like. fine with that. like i feel no jealousy at all to people who travel to different countries every year because i’ve fully accepted that when i get chances to fly overseas i’m completely fine (and more than that i’m excited!!) to go back home which is CRAZY bc i am the most jealous bitch to ever exist. like i am working on it but i am always crazy envious of other people no matter how much i know i probably have it better than them in other aspects?? yk?? and it’s like i’m so happy that i know i can reach a level of like love like that and i wish that i could find that in other aspects of my life

Back to the sketchy stuff from last week featuring my LL baby Vasilisa and dreamty' s Sage-Route-baby Lorialet/Solène

I'll be in my weeping corner, with a box of tissues, replaying the routes

in today's episode of there's never enough lores to get invested in:

i'm now delving into the tøp universe !!!

tbh i've been a casual listener and avid enjoyer of their music for quite some time now (around eight years lol), but i've been exposed to lore-related theories and content only earlier this year. it's been tough postponing the urge to get deeper into fans' theories and more, but i'm finally ready to learn everything there's to know about this world they created <3

aside from listening to their albums on loop and finding curious and exciting connections between some of the lyrics, i'm also watching this wonderfully detailed video on youtube !!! (i'm watching one section of the video per day and the next bit is scaled and icy)

if there's anything else you think might be helpful in learning about clancy, his letters, blurryface, dema, the nine bishops, nico, den and more please feel free to share !! it'll take me a while to watch/read/listen to everything but i'm totally invested eheh

ps. i'm shocked at how complex this universe is, there's literally so much to work with and to investigate on T_T the brain energy of everyone involved in creating and expanding the storyline istg i could never i'm flabbergasted

I feel like the eremin fandom died before I could get to it and I am DEVASTATED

Like all of the content is from last year :(

There are (significantly less than) dozens of us!!

"mmh did you know that creator you like also posts 🔞 content? did you know that? don't you think that's weird? don't you think we should keep this space-"

no. i don't.

i booked a front row seat to the devil's sacrament and you're blocking the view

just go back to the 1660 new england hole you just crawled out of and eat barley for a week to atone for your sins or whatever

[skulandcrossbones]

it's so wild to me that you absolutely cannot force a hyperfixation to happen. like you'll watch the most perfectly tailor-made-for-you content that everyone says you'll love and feel absolutely nothing, and then the thing you watch on a whim to fill time will reach through the screen and put its damn fingers in your brain and start rearranging the neurons right in front of you and every single time you're like THIS??? THIS??????? and this happens like every 6-12 months forever

This is the perfect moment for Vine to do the funniest thing possible
