Hamilton, George Washington’s secretary of the treasury, once lost his check book, and had to ask for a new one.
on a list of dumb shit i know:
the grass in the original shrek movie is not grass. its hair. they used hair textures for the grass bc the actual grass for some reason in their computer modelling programs would not behave like grass so they used hair textures colored green.
no more ‘vampires who correct history books’
more vampires who don’t remember more vampires saying ‘i don’t fucking know man, google it’ more vampires not remembering important historical figures more vampires not recalling centuries worth of history more vampires saying ‘ that was at least 300 years ago, how the FUCK could i remember that detail?’ more vampires whose brains work like human brains
Happy Pride Month to you all, here’s an angry slam poem
Shout out to David in the back there
Tell me your “coming out” story. Go on. Tell me when you came out as straight. Tell me when you sat with your mum or your dad or your friends and uttered the word to them like a dirty little secret you have to get out of your head. Tell me when the mantra “rip off the band aid” spun round your brain as you searched and searched for the courage to say that you are a heterosexual and you’re proud to be this way. Tell me about when you got told that your favourite grandma would worry too much if she could possibly know how your significant other is NOT the same gender as you? Too much fuss too much to do she’ll ring you up daily chanting “get better soon!” And if we were 30 years back in the world or living in America (what a strange little world) then she’d strap you to chairs and put plugs in your ears and see how many volts could make you be queer. Tell me about when you walked through the street hand in hand with you straight lover and heterophobes you did meet, shouting and bellowing, slurring and screams, you had to hold tight and walk head down, quick and meek. Tell me about when you took them to a film and as you sat down and watched you realised that all of the couples on that big screen were queer girls or gay ass queens and there’s no representation of what straight people are like. There’s the quirky bisexual but even in this flipped universe they’re presented all wrong, there’s a token film about you and your heterosexual crew or the token straight friend that’s the gay comedians muse but there’s no respect in media for people like you. Unless you’re in safe spaces and even then outside of those spaces people spit and scorn “little babies in there hiding away from the world!” “Creepy perverts in there and all of their porn!!”
So tell me about when you came out as straight Straight from the womb Straight to the date with a person that doesn’t share your gender traits Straight to a world where straight is the way.
me thinkin abt how perry the platypus is Often referred to as an egg laying mammal, even in his theme song:
“Say hello to mechanically separated chicken.”
