a lot of meta-fandom complaints that i hear often feel like Unintentional Rips on queer people.
"why does every character have to have a Queer Headcanon attached" i dunno, because most of us making them are queer
"why does everything have to be Found Family" i dunno, because most of us are queer without families
"why is everything about shipping" i dunno, because most of us are only having true relationships for the first time in like, our mid twenties
"why are you so obsessed with Redemption and Evil" i dunno, because most of us queers are painted as such by our peers, relatives, and media from the start. in the eyes of the Cishets, at best we have an agenda, at worst we're pedophiles made of hellfire
"why are so many queer adults into this Thing For Kids" i dunno, because most of us queers were so alienated from ourselves during our childhoods (esp us transes) that we're just now rediscovering the wonder in this world
lotta queer folks in the US are orphans in almost every way possible, and have next to nothing to call their own: spiritually, culturally, materially. we're moored to a profound trauma from birth sometimes. being a little passionate and annoying about Fandom is probably better than like, suicide. your friend's trans Three Houses Warrior Cats AU is such a trivial price to pay for their continued existence
so here it is! the first of my winners portraits!
( pls click for quality bc tumblr turns quality to shit)
sometimes it’s really hard to be trans. i came out to my best friend today, and she’s stopped talking to me and has blocked me everywhere. i’m not out to my family, because it’s honestly not safe for me, and i’m not out at school for the same reason. this is the only place where people know i’m a boy. sometimes it’s really overwhelming to be trapped, knowing that it will be so long until i can be out, if ever. and i’m scared too. the world is terrifying for queer people. i want to have a future as myself, but i don’t know how possible that is in the US. i just wish i could look in the mirror and recognize who’s looking back
guys wtf this has 1k notes?
so i was rewatching third life recently and i thought it was so funny how in the first few episodes grian is like "omg i'm so sorry that this isn't the fun collaborative season i had planned i can't believe how chaotic this is now" and then in wild life he was so pissed off about joel and his car because it wasn't death and destrucion enough. like damn grian the watchers really got you into all this death game stuff huh?
Spin this wheel twice to figure out what they are!
our sandcastle
do you guys ever think abt that bed. in the end no one respawned on it because scar died too early and grian too late
There's a lot of work to do, so let's chat about how each of us can help.
Please mark your calendars for my Monday, January 27th stream at 8:30pm Central Time, as I will be chatting with special guest Allison Chapman , National LGBTQ+ Legislative Researcher & Transgender Rights Activist!
I'll be streaming on YouTube and Twitch at youtube.com/JoeHillsTSD and twitch.tv/joehills
We'll be discussing Allison's work tracking legislation as well as opportunities for folks to pitch in or lead efforts in their own communities.
I look forward to the stream and hope you can make it!
