while i get and agree with the fact that gay people should probably play gay people and gay stories are best written by gay people, the fervor to prove that “straight people shouldn’t play gay characters!!” is what the interviewer used to forcibly out lee pace so like

idk maybe slow your roll and realize that like… actors can be closeted, content creators can be closeted, and tbh this “you can only write your own experiences, never write someone else’s” rhetoric is also a bigot’s fucking wet dream?? like the perfect excuse to never write diverse characters?? and to say that they have nothing in common with people who don’t look/love/exist the same way as them??

yeah, the author of simon vs the homo sapien’s agenda is a cis straight woman, which means love, simon (though directed by a married gay man with multiple gay characters played by gay/bi actors) is based on a novel written by a straight woman… but this straight woman literally ends her book acknowledging the LGBT teens who helped her write the book and make sure she was writing it appropriately.

this is the content we want

listen… EVERY SINGLE piece of media EVER involves some level of writing about experiences that are not your own, especially if it’s diverse. even bland stories just about white people involves an author writing about genders that are not their own. if you want a story with characters of color, white authors are going to have to write about those perspectives. if you want gay characters in every story, straight authors are gonna have to write about those perspectives. even LGBT narratives might involve gay authors writing about bi characters or cis authors writing about trans characters.

what we HOPE FOR when they do that is that they talk to people… actually belonging to those groups to learn what is and isn’t appropriate and true to life. which is what the author of simon vs the homo sapien’s agenda did.

it’s exactly what she did. she literally worked in a support group for LGBT and GNC kids, saw they did not have cute love stories written for them after they told her this, and then worked with them to give them the love story they craved.

this is a good thing. this is progress for lgbt people. this is the path we need to walk towards getting LGBT content created by LGBT authors.

when you attempt to take the ~moral ground on protesting this film, all you’re doing is telling people who fund these projects that gay products don’t sell. they don’t get the nuance of what you’re going for. and, chances are, you’re looking like a fucking hypocrite, because i can promise you most of the canon gay characters you stan profit a cishet somehow (if they’re even canon).

so, y’unno, as someone who has read simon vs the homo sapien’s agenda AND seen the fucking movie let me tell you!! it’s fine!! it’s diverse beyond having gay character, it’s written respectively, and it hit home on a lot of experiences i WISH i had as a gay teen. it’s corny, it’s silly, and it’s all i ever would have wanted at 13, 14, 15

if you don’t want to see it, just fucking say so! but don’t act like you’re doing it on moral grounds. you can just… not like a movie or not want to see it without it being some moral victory.

"I almost always topple over, when she always bends over, baby bring that bottom over, don’t make me run on over.

Baby why do I always fall for you, I just see that bottom behind you, and it seems to keep reminding me, just how much you mean to me.

So baby let me smack that ass, you must think I have balls of brass, when really I’m just hopelessly in love with you."

I just do not see how it would be possible at all. The storytelling is too dependent on the LI's problems. They would have to kill off every LI because otherwise they would have to write five seperate parts to avoid huge weird gaps. And you know that will never happen.

Okay like I know none of the LIs are dead in TF/TS cuz like that’s so cruel but at the same time I can totally see PB being THAT extra and that petty like “oh y’all don’t like TF/TS? Fine then what if we KILL OFF YOUR LI!!!”

Meanwhile at the PB emergency meeting...

"WHO LEAKED THIS INFORMATION? WE WERE GOING TO CHARGE FOR THAT!"

Crack theory time.

The Endless Summer crew managed to save the World, but unbeknownst to them they ended up back in time.

So they hop onto a plane and start flying back home. But because Jake is flying they crash and die horribly.

The only thing to survive the crash unscathed is Jake’s jacket (because it got “accidentally” thrown from the plane). The jacket is blown away by the wind until it is found by a Berry High student

And that is how Micheal Harison got his signature look….

Anon, keep in mind that she has spent her whole life being prepared for courtly life without any care for money. Like jbzxls said, she is in an environment where those skills shine. Take her out of her element and she will likely struggle like the rest of us.

I love Hana, but it’s getting kind of ridiculous that she’s so good at every single thing she does. No one is that talented at EVERYTHING.

Whoa! Amazing work as always! I love this so much!! 😍😍

Too adorable. Thank you for sharing it!

Casual Hana

I knew this would turn out absolutely amazing, but It is even more amazing then I could have imagined. This is so beautiful! I love this piece so much! 😍

Estela is easily my favourite choices character so I might be a bit biased, but this is one of my favourite pieces of fanart yet. Our girl Estela definitely deserved this fine and gorgeous treatment.

So I’ve finished the fan art of Estela (finally!)

The Bird-foots-trefoil symbolizes revenge (since she wanted revenge for her mothers death), and the olive branches symbolize peace (that she made with herself and her past, at the end of book 2 and beginning of book 3).

The Star constellation in the background is Draco, her hadean zodiac (which is also the amulet on the … necklace (head-lace ?) )

Anyways, I hope you enjoy the drawing ^^

A comma splice walks into a bar, it has a drink and then leaves.

A question mark walks into a bar?

Two quotation marks “Walk into” a bar.

A gerund and an infinitive walk into a bar, drinking to drink.

The bar was walked into by a passive voice.

Three intransitive verbs walk into a bar. They sit. They drink. They leave.

😍😍😍😍😍

I personally have no issues with the LH MCs. Although I feel that is partly due to the fact that I have chosen a different MC for the three stories they have been used in. I suppose PB is hoping that that is what most players will do, which is a bit silly if so. So I can completely understand that it is annoying and repetitive for players who chose MCs that reflect themselves. I can only hope that as the company continues to grow, they are able/willing to afford/hire artists to create unique sprites for every new series going forward.

Last night I dreamed I unlocked a super secret mode in DA:I that let me play through the story as Cassandra.

Listen here kiddo

when I was 14 I worked in a grocery store and one day I got to bag Stephen King’s groceries and of course, being the little horror fiction nerd I am I was completely starstruck

I think he thought I was gonna ask for an autograph because I was not even lowkey staring I was full on moon-faced and bouncing and he kept looking over at me hesitantly like aw jeez kid fuck off

anyways I finally managed to squeak out that I was a huge fan and asked for advice on writing, “how do I write as well as you do?” in my horrible thick German accent and broken ass English and he gave me the best writing advice I have ever received

“shit kid, stop worrying about how other people do it and just write your story”

14 years later my wife and I nearly hit him with our car because he was jaywalking

Wow, I can personally relate to just about every single example. I am so happy to know I am not alone.

Auditory Processing Problems

• *someone says something* “what?” *repeats themselves* “sorry?” *repeats themselves again* “pardon?”

•"hey, y'see the red thing at the top of the shelf, will you get it?“ “Sorry, what?” “On the sh-” “oh yeah sure, I’ll get it.”

•*doesn’t hear teacher because someone’s pen is making a scratchy sound at the back of the room*

•*replays video 10 ten times to figure out what they’re saying*

•teachers asking, “why do you always stop writing in the middle of a sentence, just write down whatever I’m saying,” followed by the response, “I’m just processing it,” rebuked by, “we’ll stop processing it and just write.”

•*gets really focused on staring out the window and goes through four songs without hearing a single on*
