I don't want to make a mountain out of a molehill but the reaction to Luigi M seems to indicate that a significant amount of people I see on here are only capable of understanding violations of civil rights as something happening to the innocent

there’s a certain tenor of posts ive seen lately where people just…refuse to take responsibility for their own actions, but in a way that seems intended to encourage the same behavior in others. “chik fil a is so delicious” “it’s okay to shop at hobby lobby” “it’s okay to be closeted forever if that’s more convenient” like look, we all make safety decisions and budget decisions and some of us approach those decisions at a greater level of power and privilege than others. i don’t know what is is in people’s hearts when they make what i think is a bad choice.

but i do know that when i do something selfish or antisocial that will let others down, i don’t immediately start posting about it for clout

have realized that while i am not a fan necessarily of "people meet and immediately fall in love" i am a fan of "people meet and are immediately obsessed with each other." the love can come later but the absolute fixation should be immediate

In ~these times~ it is important for queer people to be reminded of what "coming out" originally meant. "Coming out" did not mean telling all of your co-workers something super stigmatized and vulnerable about you, wearing your queer status on your sleeve in public, informing the police or government institutions about your sexuality, or even telling your parents. "Coming out" meant venturing out into the queer community; being among other queers as a queer yourself.

Coming out isn't about telling the entire world when doing so is not safe for you, it's not about arming your enemies with information they could use against you. No, coming out is about making a fulfilling queer life possible for yourself through participation in the queer community. It is about escaping the restrictions and dangers of the cisgender heterosexual world by rooting oneself more deeply into the queer one.

And you can always do that. No matter how oppressed we are. No matter how much the culture shifts and policies are enacted to terrorize us. We are always able to be ourselves when we are amongst each other. And living our queerness has always been a collective social project, not just a matter of personal exposure.

ngl I keep forgetting that Hobby Lobby is a real store that people go to. That people actually think of it as a craft store and not as a crazy Christian mass artifact smuggler. I google "Hobby Lobby" and get a page full of results that make me go "wtf is this craft supplies and operating hours shit, I thought we all knew this place for smuggling looted cuneiform tablets out of Iraq"

Hache Pueyo's But Not Too Bold (2025)

Some advertising for my dear friend's novella recently published in the US, which I just had the joy of buying at my favorite local bookstore 😁😁😁 It's such a rich and fun read I forgot how short it was until I had the (really lovely) print edition in my hands hahaha.

The plot summary:

With a clear Bluebeard inspiration, it tells the story of Dália, recently promoted to keeper of the keys in the magnificent household of Lady Anatema, a spider-like creature who seems to always devour the women she takes for brides. Something precious to the Lady goes missing, and Dália must solve the mystery of its theft — or die.

"Why didn't they just communicate?? They're so stupid!" Have you considered that communicating with someone you love and value and don't want to hurt is scary and that vulnerability takes practice and that perfect characters with perfect words make the most boring stories of all

If Seth Milchick were a beefy white guy with half the charisma that Tillman gives him, Severance fandom would be DROWNING in Seth/Mark hatesex fic.
