TOP 5 FAVORITE MOMENTS FROM 2022’S QUEER AS FOLK

1. Mingus’ performance to “sacrilege” by yeah yeah yeahs

my first association when i read the title of this episode was this song, so i was immediately captured when it actually started playing. mingus’ look during the performance was ethereal and mesmerizing. you could really feel the spiritual rebirth they and the audience were going through.

2. Brodie blowing up Daddius’ parents’ car to kimberly nichole’s cover of “house of the rising sun”

nothing more cathartic than getting revenge on your best friend’s homophobic parents. brodie might be impulsive but it’s admirable how much he cares and fights for his friends.

3. Brodie saving Mingus’ life in Babylon

the most memorable shot during the babylon attack, which the show flashed back to a couple of times, was brodie body-slamming mingus after he sees the terrifying look on their face and realizes what’s happening.

4. Brodie and Ruthie’s kiss in the rain

okay, so i’m not saying i ship it. but their relationship plays as the main love story of the show.

sure, at first we don’t get anything but a “platonic besties” vibe from them. yet, even in the beginning it feels like in ruthie’s relationship with shar there’s always another person aka brodie. later when we find out brodie and ruthie were each other’s first love it all starts to make sense. brodie had to stuff his feelings for ruthie after she came out to him as trans, but he never really got over them.

i wonder what direction their relationship would go, were we to get a season 2. all obvious reasons tell me they wouldn’t last long, but who knows? sexuality is fluid.

5. Brenda’s coming out

this coming out is pure camp and i live for it. it was as unexpected as my love for her, and yet completely in character. julian and brodie’s reaction to “you get it from your mama” was priceless.

I mean, I love Queer as Folk as much as the next person, BUT what's with Brian S5 hair?

toxic age gap relationship but they’re both the problem

A word of advice, my sweet Emmett.

Queer as Folk –3.14: The Election

Brian Kinney vs. Straight People (ง'̀-'́)ง

22 years since the birth of (gus) the show that changed everything for me and became fully a piece of my personality and formed me as a queer!! i love u qaf im never getting over you

not to be unbearable but this is literally a screenshot from queer as folk 1x22 full circle

brian kinney x anti-hero — “i wake up screaming from dreaming one day i’ll watch as you’re leaving and life will lose all its meaning for the last time…”

LISTENED TO MIDNIGHTS TWICE. TAYLOR SWIFT ONCE AGAIN PROVING HERSELF TO BE THE #1 BRIAN CODED BRITIN STAN LIKE IM GOING TO BE SOOOO ANNOYING ABOUT THIS YOU DONT UNDERSTAND

i know in my heart britin are in their new york loft rn watching iwtv while brian vehemently denies being lestat coded and justin is just having war flashbacks every 5 seconds while intermittently side eyeing brian HARD

when lestat de lioncourt said “be all the beautiful things you are and be them without apology” and when brian kinney said “no excuses, no apologies, no regrets” that’s Their Power

the thing is not only do they parallel eachother in the literary sense but loustat have britin levels of chemistry like im so serious. REAL television is back baby !!!!

louis saying lestat is 160 and lestat immediately correcting him with “159” is the EXACT same scene as brian saying he’s 28 and justin saying “you’re 29” BECAUSE LOUSTAT AND BRITIN ARE LITERALLY MIRRORS PROVE ME WRONG (you can’t)

no i’m not making a loustat/britin parallels video because i have the power to be completely normal about things. (yes i am making a loustat/britin parallels video because i do not have the power to be normal about anything)

the amount of loustat/britin parallels that are bouncing around in my head after i’ve finished interview with the vampire (2022). yeah i’m not gonna be normal about this ever

BROKE: “do you wanna move in?”

WOKE: “as for the times you’re not around… i wouldn’t particularly mind it if you were.”

“ur so quiet” sorry i was lost inside the secret qaf expanded universe that lives inside my brain

justin would listen to girl in red (bc he’s a premium Lesbian Ally) and brian would pretend to hate it but he’d hear watch you sleep and cry

leda + justin + brian is the friendship trio we truly deserved . they would’ve been an unstoppable force i fear

BRIAN KINNEY X MIDNIGHTS BY TAYLOR SWIFT

when the clock strikes twelve we’ll meet ourselves

qaf spin-off but it’s just the time in between s1 & s2 from the perspective of that nurse who sees brian visit justin every single night in the hospital

a year of qaf: [33/365]

my brain is full of worms and each of them has a phd in brian kinneyology

genuinely having the time of my life making these. it’s like a fun lil scrapbook of how i see my favs

i will never get over brian kinney listening to sad yearning soft rock/indie rock like we were shown that this man canonically chooses to listen to lover i don’t have to love by bright eyes and the one you wanted by howie beck in his alone time……. he’s Just Like Me

my shuffles + qaf hyperfixations converging pt. 2

pinterest shuffles has literally taken over my life. so enjoy my thesis on britin being the og sun + moon ship<33

brian kinney has got to be one of my favorite genders !!

the non-binary urge to steal the gender of every qaf character
