#the hate is mutual tho

[pain-is-too-tired]

Luke gives me vibes of a guy who hates cats.

I can't explain it.

Everyone else in Hermes cabin loves cats tho,especially Chris.

He gets a service cat to help when he's having panic attacks and such

The rest of the Hermes cabin adores them. That's their niece/nephew.

its amazing how many times youll think 'huh, did this fandom get really popular? ive never seen it before but now its all over my dash!' and then youll realise its all from one mutual who went insane abt it and queued 2 years worth of content

[woman-respecter]

seeing people who followed me bc i spoke out against antisemitism unfollow, block, and vague me because i’m being too feminist now, while watching people with mildly antisemitic posts follow me for my feminist content who will inevitably turn on me when i start being too jewish again…and this cycle will go on forever until everyone learns to respect women and jews.

yo so i just finished 'anything will do' by @suiana and bruhh this game ,,, i thought i was getting into something sweet and soft why tf am i left with a HOLE in my heart ,,,

deadass thought ai was just gonna let me hit and then he became existential and oHHHH MYY GODD the tone was just so introspective and endearing?? fr the entire game and it's writing felt like one of those lovely conversations you'd have in high school with your friends - the one you'll randomly remember now as an adult and feel ashamed for forgetting.

5/5 game - <3 what are you doing if u haven't played it yet???

two of my fav (non-spoilery) scenes!

1 - self explanatory i hate this guy (affectionate)

2 - i really loved this description. it just felt so thoughtful. devastating, really, when you know how ai really feels and the sort of things he's been thinking about in the game,, but sweet. in a sad way.

this show would be good if literally everything about it was different

falls to the floor and saves myself from the awkwardness of losing followers for having opinions they did not like (which is valid of them btw curate ur own online experience) by blocking everyone in a ten mile radius and by everyone i mean two people to spare myself

Hiccup got the kinda sensory and stimuli seeking autism where he actively enjoys loud noises as long as it's not people talking or yelling.

I'm new to Sade so sorry if this is a stupid question, but was Sade gay? I'm currently reading Justine and noticed the passionate, semi-romantic descriptions of m/m sex, which contrast with the crude descriptions of f/m sex. I've not read all of Sade's books, but the ones I have read also feature characters who're mostly disinterested in women, who give off self-insert vibes (e.g. Dolmancé). Am I reading too much into it? IDK but I was wondering if you could shed some light.

Happy deathday to Sade!! lol

Really all that can be said with certainty is that he definitely wasn't straight lol. Like anyone who died before modern queer theory, Sade's sexuality can be difficult to label with today's terminology. He was certainly attracted to both men and women, so for simplicity's sake I just say he was bisexual. But really, who knows...

Characters that he uses as self-inserts like Dolmancé in PitB or Bressac in Justine are pretty exclusively attracted to men. Like you said, there's multiple times in his writing where characters will praise m/m sex and show blatant disgust towards sex with women. But if you look at Sade's life, there's only one known* male sex partner and many women. There's also several women Sade was in love with throughout his life, but there exists no letters of him professing love to any man. Could this be because male victims were less likely to go to the police, therefore less known to us? because women were easier to pursue in public? because even he felt the pressure of societal norms? because he kept relations with men better hidden? because any such letters or records were selectively destroyed by a relative? Who knows! It could be some, all, or none of these things. It's really up to the interpretation of the reader. The misogyny, philosophical extremism, and very culturally different ideas about sex add so many different variables to Sade's sexuality.

To add further confusion: gender and sexuality were much more correlated in Sade's writing (and seemingly in the time period in general, I mean look at the bisexual Lord Hervey being referred to as "the third sex"), male characters who get sodimized call it them "becoming women", women who put on strap-ons "become men", even women who get sodimized are masculinized: Saint-Ange says she wants to be a "Ganymede" to Dolmancé. So sodomy seemed inherently gay to Sade, regardless of the sexes involved or what roles they played. Whereas today, that's definitely not the case. Beauvoir follows along with the sexuality-gender correlation and suggests that Sade felt more feminine than masculine and his written contempt for female genitalia was a product of his own gender frustrations. From what I've read, most modern historians tend to avoid labeling Sade with anything other than "sodomite" and "libertine" only using "bisexual" and "homosexual" to label certain actions he performed like "homosexual sex" "bisexual orgy" etc. This is when the word queer is godsent.

Tldr; He's too 18th century libertine for modern labels. Colloquially, I default to calling him bi, but we'll never really know. Maybe he would have preferred gay due to his preferences/philosophies. Who knows. Safest bet is to just call him queer.

*Should go without saying but, there were obviously more. Latour is just the only named one with recorded proof.

Sweetness

The man’s neck hadn’t been snapped yet when he walked into the bar. The sweetness of the smile on his lips felt like it didn’t belong to him; it was foreign and intruding on his face - which was scarred from the mouth down. He licked his lips hungrily, in one way or another, before brushing his messy, ginger hair from his face with a wholly bandaged hand. I hadn’t known who he was, then. So, I called him over.

The man’s neck still hadn’t been snapped when he sat opposite of me. The sweetness on his breath wasn’t his own – the dizzying smell of Crimsons, illegal though they are, is unmistakable. He licked his lips, chasing a high, either the one still coating his lips or the one in front of him, as he talked in an attractive, Southern drawl – which didn’t sound quite right. I hadn’t known who he was, then. So, I listened to him.

The man’s neck had been about to be snapped when he introduced himself to me, as kin. The sweetness shared between us felt like it didn’t belong, quickly becoming strained and feigned at best. He licked his lips almost impatiently, his attention wandering increasingly often as he started fidgeting with the heavy scarf looped atop his narrow shoulders, absentmindedly tugging it upwards – over his disfigured neck and jaw. I hadn’t known what he was, then. So, I warned him of descending hands.

The man’s neck had been snapped when he picked himself up off the soaking floor. The sweetness – red, liquid, and dripping from his mouth – didn’t belong to him. He licked his lips clumsily before wiping his chin with the sleeve of his trench coat, which was slightly too big for him. He should be dead, and was, though only in his eyes. Blue-green eyes, vibrant turquoise encircling lime green. Impassively intense eyes, meeting my own, impossibly wide. I hadn’t known what he was, then. So, I let my guard down. After all, what kin feasts on the thicker of water and blood? And who am I, if this is one of my own?

[presumeddeaddie]

guarantee the people yall are labeling homophobic don’t gaf about bt’s sex life. they can fuck nasty and have the craziest kinks in the world bc they’re consenting adults. y’all know full well the main criticism isn’t about the sex these men are having.
