So... (and involving both text, subtext, one-sided text, and some 'there simply being enough people who ship it to earn a spot'-text)...
(grab your stakes and scythes for this battle -> BUT ONLY THE STUFFED TOY KIND. Bonus points if they make clown noises when clashing against each other)
Read the description and thought it was a still, so i just assumed op meant metaphorically unnamed layers.... also true
this has a million and one unnamed layers

"It probably wouldn't save them in the end from the consequences of their actions, because each of them is still a mess of a person, but it would cut down on like half the drama (and introduce a new, more fun kind of drama)" - Anonymous
a comic about fix-it fanfics
Fondly remembering the time that a cat owner casually entered their calico Maine Coon in a cat fancier’s competition and the judges lost their minds because the cat was 1) male and 2) able to bear children
That's what True Blood was all about
why don't most vampires just find ppl who are into getting pinned down and bitten and drained. this shit is easyyyy
young me especially would have hated hearing this but networking is literally the most important thing you can do to improve your situation like forget economic barriers to education etc just keep making friends with different people and eventually someone will offer you a hand up just because they dig your vibe and that is exactly all that's happening when undeserving people surpass you anyway
Hello fellow Netflix watchers! Every week Netflix publishes their Top 10 charts for us to see what's doing well (and what isn't). And every week I check to see how the new queer shows are doing. This year has been a real mixed bag for us. Netflix has renewed several big hits like Heartstopper, Heartbreak High, & The Sandman, but buried others like First Kill and The Imperfects under bigger releases and no marketing campaign. It's frustrating and exhausting to say the least, and it might be happening again.
If you have been meaning to watch the Bastard Son and the Devil Himself but you haven't yet, you should do it now while your viewing matters (only the first 28 days are counted, yes it's stupid). It had a big increase for its second week and then dropped off the map for week three, not a good sign. If you already watched it, you should throw it on in the background a couple times, volume low but not muted (or it won't be counted), and make sure to stream the entire season. Netflix cares about two things: hours viewed and completion rates. Good hours but a low completion rate is still bad as it signals a lack of interest in future seasons. This is why the Sandman's renewal took so long, because people were watching it slowly. That's nobody’s fault, bingeing isn't for everyone, and some shows are better as a slow burn experience. Unfortunately it's how Netflix gathers its data.
So, what I recommend is re-streaming your faves after you finish them, several times if you can. If you're not ready to watch a show yet, or don't have interest in it, but still want to support queer media, you can stream it on a laptop or your phone while you're not using it (I stream on my laptop while I'm watching on my TV). It might not seem like much, but it's what we can do.
Here's the link to the charts as well as some visuals.
More than doubling hours, great!
Dropping by more than half off the global chart, yikes. Dropping off more than 2/3 of countries top 10 charts, yikes. You can't save a cancelled show, but you can stream it while it still counts! And while we're here, please go check out Dead End: Paranormal Park (trans, gay, bisexual and autism rep!), Warrior Nun and Young Royals, all just released new seasons. Let's grow their audience and give Netflix every reason to renew them again!
