wait gays stop scrolling for a second just curious how old were you guys when you figured out what any form of queerness was. Not just homosexuality like anything from the alphabet army

it was like? 10ish for me. Maybe 9.

(not when you discovered YOU were gay/trans/ace/intersex btw, when you learned they EXISTED)

Actually one last thing before I go to bed so I can deal with the consequences of my actions later but

My biggest issue with the queer community is they need to learn how to take a win.

You heard me.

It’s like no one can celebrate anything anymore. One of us gains a few more rights in a country and others will say “it’s not enough”

We know it’s not. But let us breath for a moment. Let us cheer for a moment. Let us celebrate without guilt tripping people.

I can never see a post about “XYZ happened and it’s good!!” Without at least one fucking person being like “yeah well XYZ is happening and it’s negative.”

Be fucking happy

Take a fucking win

Even if it’s a small one

And use those as fuel for the next step

Is anyone else very impressed with how Rick Riordan basically tricked Disney into publishing books with very LGBT+ characters which sort of seems like something Disney tries to hide. (Hide meaning only tiny glimpses that they can hide easily)

What I mean by “tricking”

The Lightning Thief. Simple. All the kids are assumed cis white and straight. Only really inclusive in the way that they have learning disabilities and messy family life. And it stays that way, maybe adding some side characters that are POC, (Beckendorf being described as black but there’s not much interaction with him until The Demigod Files and Last Olympian. Maybe you could say Nico and Bianca are Italian immigrants.

Then you get to Heroes of Olympus, where out of the 7 in Great Prophecy only 3 are white, (you got Piper being Native American, Hazel is Black, Leo is Latino and Frank is Chinese-Canadian) but most are still assumed straight. Until you get Nico’s reveal in House of Hades (if I remember right)

But then….oh boy.

Trials of Apollo.

Apollo is the main character and canonically bisexual, talking about several past lovers some male some female. Even stating one of his campers mortal parent is also her father. There is a cannon gay couple. There’s a cannon old lesbian couple.

Magnus Chase

Practically cannon gay couple (one deaf), Muslim character, pan character, trans gender fluid.

Now we are getting a book that stars a gay couple.

Rick basically said to Disney, “look at these! Harmless adventure stories. Look. Locked in? Okay! POC and LGBT+ can’t say no to me now I’m selling too many books. If I go to someone else I’ll just be making them money.

I just find it very funny, but I also credit Rick with exposing me to a lot of it. Before I read these books I hadn’t seen too much of this stuff in other media.

(Also adding how in Daughter of the Deep the main character gets her period in the middle of the book and it’s treated as normal.)

"Do you have to make being queer your whole personality?"

Yes. It angers you. It causes you discomfort... it's payback for the discomfort you've caused me. Its reversing my trauma into my queerness and superblasting it into you just because it pisses you off!
