i did not deserve to be called out like that
No matter the version, Loki will always be Loki. 🐍

(okay straight fics/ships are not bad but i prefer gay stuff)
I’m just really tired of the Glee hate I always see both inside and outside the fandom. Like there’s a lot of posts making the show into a meme of sorts nowadays, but people seem to forget how much it meant back in the day
I mean where else could the gay kid with a dad like Burt come out and be told that he’s still just as loved, and be supported unconditionally by said father every moment afterwards? How many shows are there like that now?
Where else could the hot cheerleaders make out and it’s not just queer bait or fan service? Where there’s actually a genuine, emotional, heart felt story surrounding it? How many shows do you know like that?
Part of Glee’s whole thing was subverting stereotypes. Yes, you’ve got the sassy black girl, the gay who loves fashion, the bitchy cheerleader, the ditzy blonde, the asshole jock. But those characters are so much more than that. Even though they fell into said stereotypes at times, I think the show spent much more time showing the characters behind the clichés
Mercedes could be vulnerable, and soft, and loving. She didn’t always have to be the Strong Black Woman that didn’t need no man
Kurt could be serious, and tough, and masculine. He didn’t always have to be the sassy gbf
Quinn could be selfless, Brittany could be smart, Puck could be kind.
And right out of the gate, the cast of characters was so diverse. The only main characters that actually fit the bill of a cis, straight, white, able bodied male were Will and Finn. Sam and Ryder were both dyslexic. I guess you could count Mason later on, but even he was on the Cheerios, which I’d argue was a good way to subvert the typical image of masculinity
For six years, we got to meet and fall in love with multiple gay, lesbian, trans, and bi characters. Characters that were black, Asian, Latina, and mixed race. Characters that were Jewish and atheist, as well as several denominations of Christian. Characters with anxiety, OCD, depression, dyslexia, down syndrome, bulimia, paraplegia. And most of the characters can check off multiple boxes
Glee gave us dozens of characters that we would have never found anywhere else. It gave us happy endings for characters that usually don’t receive them
We got to see the big black girl with big dreams get everything she ever wanted. We got to see the broken Cheerio learn to love herself, and let others in, in the process. We got to see a gay and a lesbian couple go through the same highs and lows typically afforded to any average heteronormative high school relationship, and end with the gayest double wedding ever aired on television
You don’t have to preface every shred of positivity about the show with “Glee wasn’t perfect but…”. Every show has its flaws. It’s redundant to keep rehashing that point when there’s other things to talk about. Glee tried harder in 2009 than a lot of shows do now. Glee did more for unheard voices in 2009 than most of the shows out there now
No one is accusing this show of being perfect, trust me. But it tried. Maybe sometimes they tried too hard, or maybe sometimes things got a little crazy. But the heart was always there. People today don’t seem to know, or seem to have forgotten how revolutionary this show was. It changed representation in a big way. And no matter what, I’ll always be grateful for it, and I’ll always love the wonderful characters the show has given us over the years
Harry felt as though the bottom had dropped out of his stomach.
“I DON’T BELIEVE IT!” Hermione screamed.
Lupin let go of Black and turned to her. She was pointing at him, wild-eyed. “You – you –”
“Hermione –”
“– you and him!”
“Hermione, calm down –”
“I didn’t tell anyone!” Hermione shrieked. “I’ve been covering up for you –”
“Hermione, listen to me, please!” Lupin shouted. “I can explain –”
ana hacks i use! (not pro)
these are just some that i use personally to help me lose weight, im in no way encouraging yall to do the same. this is more a personal amalgamation ;)
- i write down everything i eat
this ones pretty basic but make sure to write it ON PAPER like in a specific journal just for cal counting or whateva not just on your phone
- sleep with lots of blankets
this one is my lil secret trick so badically overnight i turn my fan off, close my windows, put on 2-3 layers of clothing, and then overlap about 12 blankets. it feels good to sweat out the calories and its v cozy. (downside: it gives me headaches sometimes)
- chew gum at eating times
if you have set eating times like lunch at school then chew gum and tell yourself you can only throw it out after the bell rings to curb temptation
- take cold showers/use an ice pack
this ones pretty well known but this helps burn a lot of calories
- WALK. WALK. WALK.
walk EVERYWHERE u can walk whenever its possible walk your dogs for no readon just WALK it burns calories and specifically leg and stomach fat just do it.
- excercise while u do everyday things
do squats while you brush your teeth or sit ups while you wait for your straightner to heat up or just anything that u can do while doing something daily and mundane, one you get in the habit you can do those things everyday
here’s some of my random spotify playlists check them out if you want they make no sense
- songs that sounds like they’re from the 80s but aren’t
- you make a cute new friend but you’re not sure if she’s gay and you don’t want to ruin this new friendship so you’re going to try to have fun hanging out with her while not developing any feelings
- waiting rooms are liminal spaces
- chill vampire tunes for ppl who just got bitten recently
- soundtrack for a horror movie where the lesbian couple survive and kill the axe murderer/exorcise the demons/bust some ghosts,etc.
- those kids riding on their bikes in indie movies
- this one literally makes no sense if you haven’t read the basic eight i guess but i’ll put it here anyway because imo it’s good if you haven’t read it just picture a teenage girl at a party that goes very very wrong
- modern songs i would put on the soundtrack of a western movie (ignore the title,,)
