Hawk!

hot take apparently but i think it's good for white people to relate to poc's art. i think it's good for straight people to relate to queer art. stop acting like we're different species who could never possibly understand each other what the fuck is wrong with you

my lyra student: if the building was burning down, would you save me?

me: yes?

student: even if I was unconscious?

me: yes??

student: so you could carry me out of the building?

me: yes??? what is going on??? are you in danger???

student: (taking out her notebook) describe to me in detail exactly how you would carry me and our positions

me: I... have to leave...

My partner and I at Ikea:

Me: (picks up a pillow, then immediately drops it) oh no, this is the bad texture™️

My partner: how's that autism going

Me: I'm the only person I know who doesn't have autism

My partner: ...I have bad news for you

you actually don't have to go on dating apps to find girlfriends. many beautiful women are waiting for you on rocks out at sea

please friendship-ize sexual relationships

also the idea that adding sex, romance, or physical intimacy to a beloved piece of art or media somehow debases or diminishes it is gross

“While many people think fanfiction is about inserting sex into texts (like Tolkien’s) where it doesn’t belong, Brancher sees it differently: “I was desperate to read about sex that included great friendship; I was repurposing Tolkien’s text in order to do that. It wasn’t that friendship needed to be sexualized, it was that erotica needed to be … friendship-ized.” Many fanfiction writers write about sex in conjunction with beloved texts and characters not because they think those texts are incomplete, but because they’re looking for stories where sex is profound and meaningful. This is part of what makes fan fiction different from pornography: unlike pornography, fanfic features characters we already care deeply about, and who tend to already have long-standing and complex relationships with each other. It’s a genre of sexual subjectification: the very opposite of objectification. It’s benefits with friendship.”

Someone put it into words. I gotta sit down
