okay i've finished rewatching pride now i will stop having feelings all over your dash
#this film is just. god. it means so much to me#it's such a well-made film but also it came out when i was 18 and like. idk.#i saw it 3 times the first year it came out#the third of them at a screening with one of the original members of LGSM doing a talk afterwards#i saw it at a time when i was just moving out of my conservative hometown and discovering queer community for myself#so it's like. formative. you know???#this is My Queer Movie#i have now seen some other Iconic Queer Movies thanks to undergrad queer film nights and stuff#things like But I'm A Cheerleader etc#but this one. this is mine.#i think because it's a queer movie about friendship and solidarity#it's about community rather than about romance even though it's about being queer#and for me as an aspec person that speaks to me in a way that romance-focused stories don't#so it resonates on a deeper level#to use a quaker phrase: it speaks to my condition#i wish i had more energy and could be more active in organising though#it's really hard to protest and be political when you're disabled and barely coping with life as it is#i can't go on a march because i won't be able to walk for four days afterwards due to pain yunno. so i feel useless a lot#ah well. i know there are things i can do they're just not glamorous#i do need to write to my MP some time soon about. everything.#personal
