The best and wildest example I've seen of exceptionally awful homophobic beliefs from 40 years ago being forgotten about or laughed at is that I once saw a picture of booty shorts with "abandon all hope ye who enter here" written across the ass. And, as a connoisseur of wretched things said by the wretched William F Buckley that one stings but is also, so, so funny. William F Buckley's in hell and Kids These Days don't even remember him.

As a lit major this text post sent me down a wild rabbit hole bc I am not a connoisseur of wretched things said by the wretched William F Buckley but I am a connoisseur of famous lines from classic literature and for a moment there I thought I was experiencing a Mandela effect moment and maybe Dante's Divine Comedy didnt exist.

I hope there’s a special demon in Hell whose job is to read these posts to William F Buckley.

Me every time this post gets notes from people who have no idea who William F Buckley is:

Happy Pride everyone!

It's June 1. It's time.

Go be gay.

a decorated general wearing dozens of medals and ribbons but when you go closer you realise that every single one is a pronoun pin

pride flags lined up like those tour of duty rectangles

in the club getting psychosexual

Voici, Louis, there are deux amis so close comme des frères, Louis, en relaxant in the j’accuse y, each afraid to breach that unspoken barrière de 1.5 mètres for fear of appearing like us evening botanists. You were like that once, too, n’est-ce pas, Louis?

one of the funnier aspects of brands that the american conservative relies on as part of their cultural identity "going woke" is that they're all too stupid to understand that these companies are focused solely on profits, and their teams upon teams of professionals whose only job is to increase profits weighed the options and decided that the safest option was to say trans rights and put pride flags on their shit. like bro, there's no woke mind virus, ford and budwieser would say "kill all faggots now!" if they thought it would make them money, you're just part of a dying and increasingly unprofitable enclave of society that no one wants to associate with.

not to be insensitive but some of the salem witch trials were so funny bitches like “i saw her at the devils sacrament!!!” girl… what were YOU doing at the devils sacrament 👀

SOMETIME IN THE LAST WEEK MY SCHOOL PUT UP A LARGE BANNER DEDICATED TO THE :-) EMOTICON

happy birthday :-) face

it’s that time of the year again everyone say happy 40th birthday :-)

This is apparently what was contained in the original message that invented the :-) and I'm obsessed with Fahlman's diction here

I’m sorry. Your url is amazing. But you’re still a bot.

Terfs and conservatives really like to do this whole "transgender is a sex thing" a lot which obviously isn't true but also even if it were it wouldn't somehow make their actions redeemable. Like, if people were doing hormones and getting sex changes strictly cuz it was related to a fetish, harassing them, attacking them, trying to ban their existence from public isnt somehow justified. It wouldn't be any different from any woman going out and getting implants or something.

Terfs/conservatives oppose trans people because they oppose bodily autonomy and are a right wing anti lgbt hate group.

I’m telling you, it’s always the unidentified guests at Cannes who wear the most interesting stuff

I really wish Cannes was easier to cover live because it produces some of the best fashion
