Just A Quick Sketch Of Them... :)

Oliver and Teddy during Splash! premiere.

(Before the disaster)

Charles-Haden Savage, my beloved. You’ve got the ego of a trumpet player that needs to play first part but would have an anxiety attack if you ever had to play a solo.

And that metaphor definitely is not based in any personal experience of my own.

Fuck my dumb gay life

Looked for yaoi but it was all DISGUSTING SHIT

yall ever get an f/o crush so unexpected and so embarrassing that you just gotta sit down and contemplate every choice you’ve made to lead up to this very moment

I went back and got the exact quote. Here’s the receipts.

Kiara: Rafiki, Mufasa and Sarabi are in love?

Pumbaa: Ew, love. That sounds gross and not something like I constantly think about and really want.

Timon: (pats Pumbaa on head)

🥴

The funniest hyperfixations have gotta be the ones where you watch something and go "this thing is cute. I like it. not sure if Id call it a favorite of mine but its definitely enjoyable at least" and then cut to a month later and its completely overtaken your life

Oliver Putnam, knocking on his friend Teddy's door every once in a while:

Something stupid

This app is oppressing me but the last 4 panels are Wade looking at Logan like he hung the stars and Logan panicking and going away. Wade says "I'll treasure them forever"

Got the idea bc I always forget to draw Logan's tags so BUM Wade's the one that has them.

"But Nugget Wade doesnt wear them either" HE CUT OPEN HIS SKIN AND PUT THEM THERE, THEYRE IN HIM, ALONG HIS HEART. TAKE THAT.

I rest my case bye

My memory of The Birdcage (1996) is always that it's more dated and more difficult to watch than it actually is. You hear "drag-themed comedy from the 90s based on a musical from the 80s based on a play from the 70s" and you brace yourself just a little, right? But the film has a strong gay perspective, so the fruity fag jokes mostly come off as warmly affectionate. There is a surprising amount of poignancy in Robin Williams' portrayal of Armand, grudgingly agreeing to his beloved son's request that he go back into the closet for an evening ("do me a favor and don't talk to me for a while"). The drag club's staff attempting to redecorate the apartment with stuff straight people might like (a taxidermy moose head, an enormous crucifix, and Playboy magazine) is extremely funny. Albert's histrionics are a point of tension because he does often come off as a stereotypically pathetic/comic figure, but towards the end of the movie he makes it very clear that he's aware of how people see him, and asserts that trying to copy a stoic masculinity he doesn't possess for the sake of social approval would be more pathetic. In the 1983 musical adaptation, they give "Albert" (Albin) the only good song in the whole show, "I Am What I Am", which Gloria Gaynor covered to the delight of gays everywhere. Apparently Nathan Lane wasn't (publicly) out yet in 1996, which is amazing because it means that at one point in this movie you're watching a gay man playing a straight man playing a gay man playing a straight man, in a movie about how it's important to be yourself, an absurdity that does seem to encapsulate the state of gay America in the 90s.
