sometimes the teacher/professor experience is like

professor smiley mcfrienderson, plays music, tries to befriend students, is always in a peppy mood: oh you’re dying? sorry i don’t accept late work :) make sure you write this five page paper! i’m gonna throw a dart at a board to decide whether or not i’ll actually take it for a grade and if i do it’s worth 10% of your total grade and if i don’t you should do it anyway as busywork because learning is fun! :D

professor stone face, who scares you to death on syllabus day and has clearly seen some sort of horrors: yeah you can skip class if you want idc you know what works best for you. btw you can get ten bonus points for taking a funny selfie with me renewable once per week. wanna hear my life story

I swear people now think they’re entitled to know every queer person that could possibly be around them. NO ONE IS ENTITLED TO MAKE ANYONE COME OUT. Let’s learn our lesson from Kit Connor and just allow people to be who they are without trying to speculate or force them to come out. At the end of the day we don’t know these celebrities and have no right to their private information.

With the whole “Taylor swift is gay” article going around I want to talk about my hatred for the “gaydar” and speculation about people’s identities.

I genuinely hate it when someone talks about a celebrity (or anyone) and they say “are you sure they aren’t a little fruity?” To any feminine guy or masculine woman. It makes me so angry beyond words. Now, if you know me, you know I like Ben Schwartz. I talk about him all the time. Every time I show videos of him people around me always ask “oh are you sure he isn’t gay” men can fucking like theater, or improv or art and not be gay. Not be LGBT. It’s fucking sickening.

People even say this about me sometimes , which is different as I am LGBT. But even if I wasn’t it still isn’t ok to just walk up to someone and go “hey are you *limp wrist*” like it just. AAHSHFJWJFHIWHDUWIEJ STOP. Like I get it, it’s cool finding other LGBT people, but stop putting people into fucking boxes. Stop assuming people’s sexualities. It doesn’t matter if they are a celebrity or a random Joe. Just stop.

No one owes you anything. You don’t need to know. Just. Fucking. Stop.

I think a lot about how we as a culture have turned “forever” into the only acceptable definition of success.

Like… if you open a coffee shop and run it for a while and it makes you happy but then stuff gets too expensive and stressful and you want to do something else so you close it, it’s a “failed” business. If you write a book or two, then decide that you don’t actually want to keep doing that, you’re a “failed” writer. If you marry someone, and that marriage is good for a while, and then stops working and you get divorced, it’s a “failed” marriage.

The only acceptable “win condition” is “you keep doing that thing forever”. A friendship that lasts for a few years but then its time is done and you move on is considered less valuable or not a “real” friendship. A hobby that you do for a while and then are done with is a “phase” - or, alternatively, a “pity” that you don’t do that thing any more. A fandom is “dying” because people have had a lot of fun with it but are now moving on to other things.

I just think that something can be good, and also end, and that thing was still good. And it’s okay to be sad that it ended, too. But the idea that anything that ends is automatically less than this hypothetical eternal state of success… I don’t think that’s doing us any good at all.
