Light Academia Be Like

This crossed my dashboard just as the squid game 2 trailer dropped

It does NOT need a part 2. PERIOD

Crowley constantly saving Aziraphale's ass and Aziraphale always being afraid that Hell will do something to Crowley if they find out about their pact

It's pure love guys

I want to say something

Harry Potter was my shelter. I used to read and re-read the series over and over again as a means to escape reality, to escape my thoughts. When I was about 12, I started having problems with my mental health. My anxiety, social anxiety in particular, was crippling. So I was reading Harry Potter on an endless loop, obsessing to the point where I couldn't let myself go to sleep without reading at least a page from whatever book I was re-reading at the moment (yeah, I know it's bad). So the series was my escape, and it will forever have a special place in my heart.

BUT

I'm grown up now, and J. K. Rowling spouting that shit causes so much pain. Seriously, can this woman own up to her shit and just... I don't know... Shut it? Like, permanently?

Also, the series is full of harmful things which are subtle enough you don't notice them as a kid and they settle down deep inside of you and influence your view of the world (a race BORN to be slaves, antisemitic stereotypes, lack of diversity, etc) and if anyone wants to trash-talk the books with me I'm always ready.

To conclude, fuck J. K.

Let's just collectively rewrite the series

I spat out my drink when I read the Richard one 

TSH characters as The Onion headlines:

BUNNY:

RICHARD:

CAMILLA:

CHARLES:

FRANCIS:

HENRY:

What if we unexpectedly kissed on the stage while performing King Lear before I confessed to the crime you'd committed and went to jail comparing our story to Romeo and Juliette?... Jk.. Unless?..

A little comparison...

Oh god, this really strikes a chord. I struggle a lot with my identity as a queer girl because I never feel "queer enough". I identify as bi, and I have since I was 13. However, my attraction to women differs greatly from  my attraction to men, and the attraction I feel towards women is more romantic than physical. And every time I am attracted to a man I start overthinking and my anxiety comes into play. I almost start shaming myself for liking men. This always makes me feel like I'm feigning my queerness and I don't deserve a place in queer spaces. The bisexual label puts some kind of pressure on me, and from time to time I don’t even want to identify as anything because I’m too confused.  I’m sorry, I can’t really help, but I felt like sharing because I found someone like me and it made me feel a little bit better. At the end of the day, I know that all my crushes on girls were genuine, and I remember how and what I felt. Keeping that in mind helps me feel more secure

sometimes i feel so pressured to be “queer enough”. i know it’s the internalized biphobia, but i just feel so guilty when i talk about my attraction to women and fem-aligned people. in my attempt to become ok with my attraction to men and my own identity as a man that i lost my ability to be ok with my attraction to women. especially because my attraction to women isn’t exactly the type that men are expected to feel. i don’t want to be the dominant one in the relationship, i relate to posts that are like “i want a strong sword wife” instead of the other way around. i want to say “i love women so much” and not worry about feeling like that makes my attraction to men any less queer.

i care a lot about my place in the LGBT+ community, and i know that my place as the B in the lgBt community relates to my attraction to the same and other genders so i know it’s ok to still have m/f attraction and still secure in my indentity, hell my identity is partially BUILT on that attraction, but i feel so uncomfortable about it.

if anyone who’s bisexual or pansexual or any other multi sexual identity has any advice on feeling more secure in your m/f attraction while still feeling “queer enough” i would love some advice
