I saw this on someone talking about this on their blog, the post didn’t directly come up on my dashboard, but the fact that this site has posts that can get like 60k notes earnestly arguing that Neil Gaiman wrote any queer representation at all in Good Omens shows how terminally online the general user base of this website is. If you log off your computer and talk to offline normies, especially straight ones, they think Aziraphale and Crowley are cis dude bros because there’s next to nothing in the actual source material to say otherwise. Retroactive tweets and tumblr posts from the author to gain clout don’t count. It’s just incredible how this site will demonize media that does actually have textual representation if it’s Cringe and problematique but make excuses for gomens because Gaiman is considered a tumblr cool kid and people don’t want to admit their favorite show has no representation lol
Gaiman really wrote nothing and then utilized the most terminally online ace discourse to justify it, and sometimes I still can’t believe how this website collectively fell for it.
Edit: how could I forget him claiming that Aziraphale and Crowley held hands completely off-screen, and this site bought it? Lmfao that’s called a LIE, kids
#‘they never actually say they love each other or kiss because [insert ace buzzwords here]’#ok OR that annoying author simply realized shipping is the only reason#why the show blew up online#and is playing y’all like a fiddle for internet clout#and to get away with writing absolutely nothing gay whatsoever lol#‘why don’t they kiss? uhhh because that would cheapen their relationship’#���no that’s not homophobic to say because uhhhh ACE!’#lmao miss me with that nonsense#it’s so transparent to anyone not soaking in tumblr brain rot#the post I’m talking about ended like ‘if you argue that gomens isn’t representation then pay for my top surgery!’#ok good luck on your surgery but you’re still wrong and terminally online lol
