fictional character discourse would be more fun if we all internalized the fact that characters are narrative tools, not people. once we have that basic fact down, we can start talking about what story the author is trying to tell using these characters, whether they’re successful, whether the story itself is successful and by what means we are measuring success—which are all really fun and interesting things to discuss! but we simply cannot get to that point unless we first accept that fictional characters simply do not have thoughts, feelings, opinions, or any agency on their own. a fictional character has more in common with the fictional chair theyre sitting on than with a real person

Abuela's Song of the Day (Jun 19)
Holland - Loved you better cw: flashing, blood/injury, implied gay bashing, explicit SI CC in 15 tracks, incl ENG
Flashing back to this letter to himself Holland released in 2019, something he wished he could tell his younger self. A sentiment I think a lot of queer adults can sympathize with.

do y'all even know how much i hate being an "elder queer" at 40? a whole goddamn generation before me was wiped out by a plague that politicians deemed not their problem bc it was killing the "right" people. like. this was OPENLY STATED. i spent a large chunk of my childhood going to funerals. nevermind the fact that killing queer people for being queer wasn't codified into law as a hate crime until i was a junior in high school.
i should NOT be an elder queer, i should be middle at most. i am a middle aged queer. most of the elder queers died.
when i was growing up i didn't go to pride parades, i went to pride marches. because that's 100% what they were in the 80s and 90s.
from the absolute bottom of my heart, LEARN OUR FUCKING HISTORY. a generation was nearly wiped out so you young queers could be here. don't let that have been in vain, please.
#being late forties and thus an elder queer is a whole ass thing all right#your elders bled and died for queer to be the academic term#terfs don't get to take it from us#calling queer a slur is giving in to the politics of hate#calling queer a slur is fascism#you can take queer from my cold dead hands#and maybe not even then
