ESCAPE

Bint El Khandaq - Mashrou Leila / Succession 2x07 / Fast Car - Tracy Chapman / The Bus, Leonard Cohen / fax from comedian Graham Kennedy to probable lover Rob Astbury / Mikey and Nicky, dir. Elaine May, 1976

[youssefguedira]

TOG Head canon: Nicky plays string instruments. Not on purpose so much as he sometimes picks up the things Joe tries and tires of (yes Adhd!Joe) and quietly becomes competent. Guitar, Piano, even for a time the violin. He rarely plays for an audience, is not as comfortable in the spotlight as Joe, but it makes him happy to make music. The one instrument he cannot play very well is the Cello. Not because he doesn’t have the skill, its that he cannot practise. Or rather he cannot be left alone to practise. Because Nicky, sat wrapped around a cello, all thighs and hands and shoulders and hair and fierce concentration? It. drives. Joe. WILD. There isn’t a piece of cello music Nicky has started that Yusuf *deer fingers gif* al Kaysani hasn’t interrupted for.. reasons.

(Sorry. I just needed everyone else to also be picturing Luca Marinelli playing the cello because my brain did a thing)🎻

guitarist nicky is SO so important to me i spend a lot of time thinking about him and violinist nile dueting. but in general music nicky is very important to me like i just think hed like it. i like to think about him playing piano or guitar or something with joe in the same room sitting on the floor and resting his head on nicky's leg with his eyes closed,,,,,,, just listening to him play,,,,,, i Love Them. so yeah to all of this

[hakusins]

also !!! my pc got pregnant by alex and had a cute daughter !!!! 🥺🥺🥺 meet the new addition to the family!!!

[high-queen-of-exy]

The Foxes as energy drinks but it's my hyper specific opinion and less reasoning as it goes on

Kevin, who cares about his health, you know, like a loser, gets V8 energy. There's like, so little caffeine it barely does anything, but it's healthy. My grandma drinks theses. But like he also gets the blueberry pomegranate flavor because it tastes good

Andrew gets bang because it has unreasonable amounts of caffeine and it makes Kevin mad, cotton candy flavored because my boy has a sweet tooth and this one tastes like pure sugat

Neil gets purple haze bang because a. Same as Andrew with Kevin, and b. Because he seems like the kinda bitch who likes grape flavored things

Aaron is the the white monster, he just feels citrusy, like that's his whole personality as a flavor in my brain

Nicky is rainbow unicorn bang because my best friend used to bring me them and call it my "gay juice" when we were freshman

Allison is the Frosé Rosé bang, pretty, tastes nice, will induce heart palpitations

Renee gets the pink monster because she's pretty and also I like it

Matt gets the reign, idk what flavor because I've never had one but I think it fits based on vibe alone

Dan gets the the lemon-tea monster rehab, my ex used to drink these, I used to steal them, they're really good

And Seth gets original red bull, I tried one once and it tasted like piss

Honorable mentions-

Jeremy gets pipeline punch because my friend Caleb drinks them and they have the same vibe

Jean gets blue razz bang because my best friend loves them and I love her and also I love Jean and I dunno if that makes sense but it does to me

Leila gets radical skadical bang, I didn't even want this flavor, I thought it was rainbow unicorn, but it's really good

Alvarez is watermelon bang, I just think it's fun

Ichirou gets lo carb because it taste like the original but good?, essentially because....

Riko gets original monster, it tastes like battery acid, my dad drinks these, my dad is a peice of shit, I hate this kinda

[namesetc]

not too sure if this is too specific, but names like ‘miki’? (whether its Mikan related like it originally was, or just the general vibe, I’d appreciate it!!! :D)

Names similar to miki, got it <3

books for baby gays

gather round queer kiddos, for this book rec of stories featuring wlw of all designations, where happy things happen and bad things do not (nearly as much). I’ve aimed for happy endings and not too much tragedy or pain over the course of these stories, but (unfortunately) haven’t read all of them so do let me know if any mistakes slipped through.

This list is heavy on the fiction because I’m mainly aiming to provide some solace and warmth. Where there is some overlap between categories (e.g. coming out after uni and the what comes next section, or if you’re looking for escapism then the background-to-no romance section might also be useful) I have only included a book under one or the other, not duplicated.

All links direct through to the Storygraph, which includes reader-sourced content warnings on all titles so do make sure to check those out as well (and if you want you can follow me here). Now, have at it!
