holy shit im listening to the most recent mbmbam live and theyre describinf this fucking banner for the Moontower Comedy Festival and i was like. what do they mean justin is super small

so i googled it and

the mcelroys deciding they will be in trolls 2 then documenting their journey to actually being in trolls 2 is the EPITOME of putting an idea out into the world and making it happen like i love that confidence and its honestly so inspiring

can we all just collectively stop asking the mcelroys questions abt being queer/how to deal with issues that are specific to living as a queer person? like its just...yall, i know we all love them, theyre understanding and inclusive and just generally good people, but theyre still all cisgender heterosexual men.

there is no goof they can make about coming out as trans, or funny explaination for why you have two partners, or cute quip about being a lesbian any of them can possibly make without A) saying something horrible offensive, hurting their audience or B) stammering over what they shouldnt say and trying to find some way to be funny (ie: do their job) without hurting their audience, which as we all know for a person with anxiety, like all of the brothers, is in itself a nerve wracking expierence that is in no doubt making them uncomfortable and possibly hurting them

like theres just no good end game for that

there are literally HUNDREDS of hilarious gay men, lesbians, bi people, trans people, queer people, polyamorous people, nonbinary people, literally hundreds of people of these markedly not cis and not het people out on the internet who could make u piss urself with a response to "how do i explain to people in a funny way why i partake in (queer action)?"

and those people, unlike the mcelroys, will have expierence in that and not be overcome by anxiety about how the hell to answer that in a compassionate and understanding way while still being funny

and this isnt me trying to push that weird narrative that because the mcelroys are cishet we should just abandon them and stop enjoying their content im not suggesting that at all like by all means go to a live show and ask the mcelroys how the fuck you tell you coworker she wears the same perfume as youre great grandma without sounding like a prick! ill listen and laugh my ass off at their undoubtedly hilarious response

im just asking if like...if you want funny queer humor, maybe go to a funny queer comedian instead of pushing the mcelroys all the way out of their lane where they never asked to be and have stated several times are uncomfortable being in to begin with
