Things I have learned from the Bohemian Rhapsody discourse.

1. Tumblr Idiots don’t know that Bryan Singer got fired from the movie. He was replaced with Dexter Fletcher, and his involvement with the film is (rightly) either being ignored outright by the power at be or dismissed as unimportant. Fletcher said he doesn’t know if Singer will be even given a credit for the film. Boycotting because of his partial involvement is beyond stupid.

2. Tumblr Idiots don’t know Freddie was officially diagnosed with AIDS in 1986/87 (depending on who you believe), but are mad that it won’t be a central narrative even though its a movie about THE BAND, not just Freddie, and the movie only goes up to the Live Aid concert in ‘85. What do you want, for them to just rearrange the events of his life to make no sense? “Facing a life-threatening illness, Freddie leads the band in one of the greatest performances in the history of rock music” is literally part of the movie’s description, it hasn’t been erased, its going to be looked at in what I can only assume will be a sobering last act. 

3. Tumblr idiots don’t know who Mary Austin is, and are bitching about Freddie being shown involved with “a woman” as “homophobic” and “erasure”. Mary Austin was his girlfriend for 6 years, his beloved friend, his muse, one of his greatest supports after his diagnosis, and the person he left everything he had to when he died. Y’all are some seriously ignorant jerks if you think Mary shouldn’t be in the movie, whether or not you agree with her choices in the years after he died has no bearing on her influential role in his life. Also Freddie’s boyfriend Jim Hutton is literally in the film, but cursory research is apparently beyond some of these people. He was who he was, he loved several men, he loved one woman, he was a queer icon and you can relate to that how you like but stop putting him in an exclusionary box when he himself refused to be labelled.

my stress stresses me out to the point where im too stressed to deal with my stress

art takes hours to produce and seconds to consume so dont act suprised when artists get upset when their posts only get likes and no reblogs

similarly a piece of writing that takes a few minutes to read could have weeks of work behind it… dont take creativity for granted when ur getting it for free

Depression: No do thing. Tired.

Me: Okay well. Maybe if I go to sleep super duper early, I’ll get a decent amount of sleep.

Insomnia: You Fool. You absolute goddamn idiot

Insomnia: You Are Awake.
