#we WILL be remembered

[queer-remembrance-project]

Hi, I can't share my name, however, you can refer to me as Cervidae. I am a young queer person living in the United States, and I will be perfectly clear, things are shit right now. Things are bad, and they WILL get worse. But I'm not giving up hope, not until I'm 6 feet under. I implore you to read this post, please.

My current mission is to save as many queer stories as possible and stockpile them. I will make them into a book, and I will sell that book to anyone who will buy it, and any profits made from that will be given to charities.

We CANNOT let our stories die. We can't let the next generations of queer people think that they're all alone, because they will NEVER be. No matter what place, no matter what people, we're there, we always have been.

Currently I am working on my own, but I have plans to get more people on board while I still can, such as starting a go fund me (All profits will go to this project and no where else).

So please, my fellow queers, my community, my siblings, my kin, send me your stories. You can choose how much information you give me, you can tell me whether or not you want your username shared or not, and I want to make this clear, you can be completely anonymous. You can vent as much or as little as you want. You can send me stories spanning as many messages as you need, or you can send me something as small as "I am queer", it will all go in.

I'm doing this because I refuse to be forgotten, and for my community to be forgotten. We will live through this, we WILL, and we will be remembered.

I love you all so very, very much. We can't let ourselves be forgotten, we must push forward and live through this, from the oldest to the youngest of us.

No matter your race, religion, place of birth, age, or ANYTHING else, you are queer, you are a queer human, and you deserve to be heard, even if it's just in this book.

Please reblog.

-Love, Cervidae

I’M NOT EMOTIONALLY READY TO LISTEN TO GROWN TAYLOR SINGING LONG LIVE I JUST CANT 😭😭😭

[olivers-cocoapuffs]

Long Live is the Marauders

[meet-me-behindthemall12]

ok guys i had to come here and say this

for everyone complaining about taylor not promoting speak now tv as much as red and fearless, here’s why

it’s our album. she wrote it for us. not them.

red has 22, wanegbt, and ikywt

fearless has love story, and ybwm

speak now has long live. the song that she wrote for the fans. the song asking us to never leave her. the song where’s she’s telling us to remember her when the rest of the world doesn’t.

speak now starts with mine, signifying that it’s her album. (her fave color is purple btw)

speak now deluxe ends with ours because it’s our album.

speak now (taylor’s version) ends with timeless because the rest of the world may not be forever, be we are. we will remember this feeling. we will remember this moment. we will be remembered.

I wish we had more female characters like Eleanor Shellstrop. One of the most unlikable people you've ever met. Read a Buzzfeed article on most rude things you can do on a daily basis and decided to use that as a list of goals. Makes everyone's day worse just by being there. Dropped a margarita mix on the ground and tried to pick it up, only to get hit by a row of shopping carts which pushed her into the road where she was hit by a boner pill delivery truck, killing her instantly. Cannot keep a romantic partner despite being bisexual. Had a terrible childhood but will die before she gets therapy. Best employee at a scam company. Just the worst but also can't help but root for her to improve.

Absolute loser. Girl-failure. Bad at almost everything. Literally perfect female character.

how do i contact apple bc actually i am currently going through an internet story but i don't have twitter.

which is to say that 3 weeks ago i was on vacation to the Azores with my family. due to girl pockets (iykyk) my phone fucking jumped into the ocean literally only because i lifted my leg above a 30 degree angle to avoid a wave. the phone was black. the sand was black. it was night. i had waded in about 2 feet deep. i think my guardian angel just closed his eyes.

i immediately reached a state of peace about it. maybe it was a sign from god or the universe. don't we all need to unplug. let's live in the moment or whatever. also, let's give the crabs technology, i just think it would be funny.

i come home. i haven't backed up my phone in a while (lol since 2022) and the shitty replacement i got is literally useless. i lost pictures of newborn babies. i lost contacts. i have to wrangle things together that need 2-factor authentication with a phone that's in the fucking ocean.

and then today i got this notification.

What in the everfuck. are you kidding me. this thing was IN THE OCEAN. like the ACTUAL OCEAN. like originally "find my phone" was reporting it as ABSENT.

and then i get this email:

she found it while she was SNORKLING. at the bottom of the actual ocean. it's been there for 3 weeks.

IT STILL WORKS.

which is to say. like how do i get her anything she wants, forever. i don't have any money but i would buy her a fucking boat of iphones to thank her. how do we get apple to give me a commercial. if nothing else i just want people to know that someone found my phone at the bottom of the ocean because how fucking fake of a story does this even sound.

what's going on. hello????????

I hate it when actors talk about an animal they had to work with on set and it’s obvious they were not patient with the animal at all. You especially see this with non cat people who had to work with cats and are like “Working with that cat was the bane of my existence, never on cue, scratched me once, always seemed afraid of me.” Like yeah, she’s a cat. She could probably sense you hated her. It’s hard enough to be an animal in the entertainment industry without some guy being a dick to you. Are you that uncharitable with human costars (and particularly child actors) or do you just hate animals?

Conversely, it’s so heartwarming when an actor speaks positively about an animal they worked with and/or there are behind the scenes stories of the crew genuinely trying to make the animal comfortable and giving them grace.

One of my favorite examples of this is Mad Max 2 (1981) which was made on a budget of $4.5 million AUD (about $13.5 USD in today’s money). They ended up casting a dog from the pound that was scheduled to be put down and by all accounts the dog was a nightmare to work with. But most of the cast and crew loved him. The dog’s name was Dog so his character’s name was also Dog. He was difficult to train but super food motivated so they kept writing dog food into scenes for him. He kept freaking out on set and they couldn’t figure out what was wrong. Eventually they realized part of the reason he kept acting out was because he was terrified of the sound of cars and motorcycles so they had special doggy earplugs made. His character was supposed to be aggressive but real Dog was very affectionate and could not be made to behave aggressively so they had to use selective editing to make him seem more menacing. When filming was done multiple crew members wanted to adopt him because he was such a good bad boy. He was adopted by one of the stuntwomen and got to live out the rest of his life doing actual blue heeler things. That was his only film role.

What was that you said about memory? "A monster," was it?

Being forcefully raised as a woman is not any less traumatic and emotionally repressive as being forcefully raised as a man. Femininity is not inherently pure and safe. Coercing someone to perform femininity is not any less toxic than coerced masculinity. Being dysphoric around femininity or having trauma from women doesn’t make you a misogynist.
