NORMAL PEOPLE (2020)
#only reblog Normal People gifsets that capture both moods of the story
Mr. Darcy: “If your feelings are still what they were last April…”
My romantic longing ass watching this scene for the 50th time as if I haven’t watched Pride and Prejudice 2005 before:
Narcissus taking a selfie is the ACTUAL best.
Painting recreations are my favorite thing to come out of quarantine.
POV: you are watching the intro to an early 2000s coming of age movie

(it’s not actually canon)
xcuse you
are you calling me a liar
okay but I did not know that there is a story about f. scott fitzgerald nervously showing ernest hemingway his penis because zelda said he couldn’t satisfy a woman with it and ernest hemingway was like “lol no dude you’re fine”
what are the modernists even
the best part of that story in context is that before they pull out their dicks, hemingway spends the better part of a chapter physically describing fitzgerald in great detail, claiming to be grossed out by him but obviously, obviously uncomfortably attracted
oh my god, it got better. I just went to find an excerpt and
Scott was a man then who looked like a boy with a face between handsome and pretty. He had very fair wavy hair, a high forehead, excited and friendly eyes and a delicate long-lipped Irish mouth that, on a girl, would have been the mouth of a beauty. His chin was well built and he had good ears and a handsome, almost beautiful, unmarked nose. This should not have added up to a pretty face, but that came from the coloring, the very fair hair and the mouth. The mouth worried you until you knew him and then it worried you more.
ernest hemingway calm down and control your thirst a little
“The mouth worried you until you knew him and then it worried you more“ is a hell of a line

What’s amazing about this is that Hemingway’s writing is never this good in any other situation

Me trying to find a way into the circle
it IS a phase, mom
show me a permanent state of the self, mom
The "born this way" narrative falls apart due to four (4) distinct failures
1. It is not actually an effective argument for dissuading homophobes or transphobes. Take a look at the developmental disability community for some examples of what oppressors do when we’re born this way.
2. It contradicts the idea of actively introspecting to discover your sexual orientation and/or gender identity, invalidating anyone who didn’t just know automatically.
3. It implies that our inability to change is the only good reason to accept us, and by extension implies that we ought to change if we could. Therefore, it actually reinforces that notion that there’s Something Wrong With Us, rather than challenging it.
4. It erases the experiences of people whose queer identities were developed through trauma, who were not in fact born this way.
I would rephrase #4 as: “ It erases the experiences of people who were not in fact born this way.” Whether that be through trauma, simply loving someone unexpectedly, choosing queerness, or what have you.
book, movie, play, or musical: and it was love at first sight :)
my inner demisexual, rising from my person like the fucking kracken: ok but like, what are your mutual interests? what are your shared values? name me one (1) single fact you know about this individual other than how their face looks by moonlight? how is their sense of humor? will they get along with your friends? are they even nice? well jesUS DON’T KISS HIM YET, FOR ALL YOU KNOW HE’S A REPUBLICAN
lol at folks saying i went too hard on republicans
listen, if you are still a member of the u.s. republican party in the year of our lord 2019, when mainstream republican policies include “let’s deny climate change is happening” and “let’s indefinitely detain immigrants, including children, in inhumane conditions” and “let’s do everything we possibly can to prevent meaningful action on gun control lest we annoy our donors” and “let’s do what we can to make life worse for trans people and/or people of color and/or poor people”
then uh
no kisses for you
