I can’t believe a boyfriend made a silly sex joke to lighten the mood after both partners had a moment of vulnerability. The audacity. The horror. The normalcy! Unbelievable. How dare a conversation about feelings turn to levity. How dare a couple have a light chat about trauma-related things over dinner that doesn’t turn into an incredibly deep heart to heart instead of a joke and moving on. Unbelievable. I’m never watching this show again! 👎🏻

#911 spoilers #bucktommy #Evan buckley #Tommy kinard #look #as a queer person in a relationship with another queer person #both of whom have major familial trauma #trust me when I say you generally DONT WANT ever reference to your feelings and trauma to turn into a huge deep discussion #sometimes you just say something vulnerable #and the other person does too #and then you joke about it and move on #humour is powerful coping mechanism as well #one that is pretty common especially among guys #people need to freaking relax ffs #Tommy is not a horrible person for making a flirty joke #things were said and feelings were acknowledged #and then they moved on #this is all perfectly freaking natural #Buck is not some sensitive flower that can’t handle a silly joke about daddy issues #please I beg you all to look at this at a distance with some common sense #rather than the ‘but Buck is traumatized and must always be treated delicately!!’ lens #and I am saying all of this as someone who really doesn’t give two fucks about the joke itself #I’m not into daddy kink idgaf #but if the idea that a queer couple isn’t allowed to insert a flirty joke to lighten a moment of vulnerability #then I don’t know what to tell you #you personally finding something innapropriate does not mean it’s actually innapropriate #please just chill out ffs #no one wants to hear about how evil Tommy is for hitting on his boyfriend for months and months to come
