Vida, I do not think of you as a man and I do not think of you as a woman. I think of you as an angel.

I love you Priscilla Queen of the Desert I love you But I’m A Cheerleader I love you Velvet Goldmine I love you To Wong Foo I love you Hedwig and the Angry Inch I love you The Birdcage I love you Nowhere I love you queer movies from the 90s that are fun and camp and over the top with characters that are messy and loud and make mistakes. We’re getting fun movies back can we bring back these

Ever just watch old, campy, devastatingly sincere queer stories that leave you feeling warm and seen and like it’s a little easier to breathe because we’ve always been here and we’ve always been fighting and there has always been love despite it all?

there’s just something about going from bracing yourself a little because you’ve heard it’s good, but you know it came from it’s time, to laughing as thought out (tho occasionally outdated) jokes land, to feeling a spotlight on your soul as a character gives a stark and utterly sincere speech about their struggle to accepting themselves and finding the people who will love them back and dammit they’re not going to give that up. Then returning to jokes and plot and they even get a happy ending??

it’s a bit easier to breathe
