#a show about a gay dude

[respectthepetty]

I really thought Although I Love You, and You? would be one of those Japanese BLs where we didn't see a kiss or only got one, but the show said

SIKE!

I appreciate being reminded that this is a show about a gay man.

And another man who is figuring it out.

Sometime going into a trending tag is very funny. "If the two male leads of this tv show from the 2000s/early 2010s don't canonically end up together, I don't know what I will do with myself !"

I don't know how to explain to you that before, like, 2017, This Did Not Happen. There were straight couple, and next to them were Ambigusly Close Men (Often With Female Love Interests), and you considered yourself lucky if in the finale they weren't in straight relationships. There were hints. There were gay actors, there were jokey "ahah let's not talk about New Year Party!", there were people being homophobic to them. But it was known that they Would Not End Up Together.

Please manage your expectations.

me omw to scare mormons out of a wendys!! 🍂🖤🍟

okay I don't really know how to frame this. but like. funniest way to confirm Dean is Ben's dad is

20 year-old Ben takes a genetics test for fun or whatever, and the results he gets back are just batshit insane. it's like. oh hey. my biological father is a known serial killer who's still on the FBI's most wanted list and has been found or thought dead multiple times. and my uncle. and my grandfather. and my grandmother. and my--

i will always shout praises of bi4bi but given recent discourse I feel the need to say that I love bi4het too! I just love bisexuality in general in its many forms, and anyone who only likes it when it's 'queer enough' for them is biphobic. Bisexuals should be able to bring their LaMe CiShEt BoYfRiEnD to pride without being made to feel like spectators and outsiders to their own event.

emotionally i have a picture of him framed and hung on my wall

[burlowbeanie]

Sooo funny to me that Peglar and Bridgens are out here having a functional tender communicative relationship with guilt-free understandings of their respective sexualities and desires and with clear boundaries that both reflect their personal preferences and keep them safe from retaliation, while every other man out here is like “what the fuck are emotions. I’m going to die. I want to kill this guy. Nvm turns out i was just horny. I want to fuck this guy. I’m going to kill myself. Our wedding was on Tuesday. We’ve broken up five times since then. I’m going to murder him. I’m starving and I’m sure he is responsible somehow. It was a beautiful ceremony. There is a great darkness within us all. The murder will be an act of mercy that neither of us can fully understand or recognize as such. If you ask me how i’m doing i will say i’m fine and i’m so emotionally stunted that I genuinely believe it. I’m still angry and hungry and horny and freezing and it’s all my dead ex husband’s fault.”

Good Luck Babe? He read the lesbian masterdoc

SpongeBob SquarePants has always been a cartoon about a gay man that's in love with his neighbor/coworker and is just living his life like normal ppl do

[lgbtlunaverse]

At some point this past year it was suddenly revealed that a not-insignificant part of this site has apparently been watching some police (firefighter?) procedural and rooting for 2 random white men to suck face for years.

And it seemed as if they'd succeeded because everyone was crying and screaming and posting gifs of two white men making out, so I was happy for them! But then it turns out, actually, the network confirmed one of the two random white men as bi but made him date some other completely different random white man. (I'm sorry I really cannot keep them apart) and so now they're all mad and hate this new gay white boy because he is the wrong white man and he's ruining their ship. It's great. Imagine if everything else about bbc Sherlock was exactly the same except they genderswapped Mary so John was gay now. Diabolical.

SHES BEING BANISHED TO THE SHADOW REALM OH MY GOD

[codecicle]

codecicle you put things on my screen that are so confusing and have no relevance to my interests but its you so i find it so very endearing. keep having so much fun and whimsy on tumblr dot com child :3

you have GOT to get on this horrible TV show dude you don't even understand. it's bad and has 0 redeemable qualities, literally my bread and butter rn. can't get enough of it

[vaguely-concerned]

got stopped on the street by a charity representative guy today who very earnestly and with genuine well-meaning bewilderment bordering on concern asked me if I was fucking with him when I told him I'm over 30. I take back every mean and derogatory thing I've ever said about Blue (which of course is going to take a while there've been quite a few, deservedly (affectionate)), the ongoing indignity of having a babyface should entitle one to any number of vile acts and character flaws as compensation

[heavy mota spoilers]

if the rumors are true (the rumors being facts that people know about curt’s fate because he was a real life human being who lived and uh. died.) and curt’s death is happening this early on in the series, then literally the only thing that will get me to keep watching is if episode three ends with bucky realizing that curt is dead and staring off into space with the same empty longing that he stared at curt with when he rode away in the back of that truck, which is the same stare that he gave him when he first saw him alive after the mission, and will now be the stare that he gives whenever curt’s name is mentioned and he’s reminded that he’s lost the only person in the world that could get him to feel something.

and then, and this is important, i need episode four in its entirety to be a flashback of their time at bootcamp in walla walla. for curt’s death to matter, i need to see whatever earned curt such a tender spot in bucky’s heart. i need to see their shenanigans and get to know their inside jokes and i need to see all of their time spent together (how many other times have they snuck off on their own? when was the first?)

if they want to give curt’s death the weight that it deserves, i need to watch bucky fall in love with him. and then i need to see it brought to the present. show us the kiss they shared after curt threw that punch and knocked feeling back into bucky. show us the lighthearted drunken kisses that bucky left on curt’s cheek after giving those british bastards what they asked for. show us the tiny moment of intimacy that they got to share before this final mission. show us a last kiss that they don’t know is their last kiss, softened by curt joking, always joking, that he’ll be bucky’s guardian angel when this is all over.

and then, and only then, we can return to bucky in the present, learning what it means for it to be all over.

no hate to this person but it's so deeply ironic to be praising wandavision (a show with a whitewashed lead) in the same post as praising chris grace as scarlett johansson (a comedy special that not only deeply criticizes whitewashing and the racist structures that allow it to happen, but also in the middle he talks about a producer that watched the show and loved it but also brought up the whitewashing-defense-rhetoric of "anyone should be able to play anyone" when talking about straight actors cast in gay parts)
