dctv ladies + heteronormativity
Me: *flirts with girl*
Her: *flirts back*
Me: *was not expecting that and am now panicking*
“I liked that idea. That even if we’re not real, we represent a dynamic. A tiny finger tracing a line in the infinite. A shape. And then we’re gone.”

Why the TARDIS is blue
“Rose went away So the Doctor is blue. Ask Donna, “Where’s the Doctor?” She’ll reply, “Doctor Who?” Sarah Jane, and Martha, And now both the Ponds Had their fun with the Doctor And now they’ve all gone. So ask me again Why the TARDIS is blue: There’s a sad man inside With both hearts torn in two.”
The little moments of Love, Simon that mean more to LGBTQ+ people than straight people realize:
- Not being able to say you’re gay out loud right away, even to yourself
- Coming out in a car. Why do we all do this?!?
- That deep breath and inability to look someone in the eye the first time you say it
- The awkwardness after coming out, even to a completely supportive family. Things aren’t bad, they’re just weird for awhile
- Having a crush on literally anyone who looks at you longer than three seconds or who gives any inclination that they may be gay
- Spending literally all day thinking about the fact that you’re gay
- Trying out ‘dressing gay’
- Coming out to someone who knows you less before you come out to the Important People in your life
- Being completely oblivious to straight people hitting on you, cause you’re just not looking for it
- Not knowing how to talk about people being attractive, not because you don’t want to, but because you’ve never done it before
All of this.

Gay. Just plain GAY.
No hetero explanation for this.
“Honestly? I can’t wait to have kids. I can’t wait to watch my wife try and slowly manipulate her glowing body out of my car as we make our way to the ultra sound appointment. I can’t wait to pull a small piece of paper out of my pocket that has about 300 questions I have to ask our doctor. I can’t wait until the doctor tells me google exists and I will be just fine. I can’t wait to stand in the book store carrying more “how to” books than necessary to the cash register. Looking both bewildered and enamoured as my wife shakes her head with embarrassment at my intense excitement. I can’t wait to hear her tired voice ask me for Pringles and peanut butter. I can’t wait to be laying on her belly and feel a small foot on the side of my head. I can’t wait to see my beautiful wife standing in the mirror rubbing me stomach slightly concerned. I can’t wait to reach my hands around and pull her in tight and whisper how utterly stunning she is. How unbelievably lucky I am. How unbelievably lucky our “little guy is.” I can’t wait to discuss who’s genes you’re going to get. Argue over who’s nose we hope you have. I can’t wait to hear the “it’s time.” I can’t wait to be next to her, holding her hand. I know she’ll tell me she can’t do it. But I damn well know she can. She will be the strongest bravest person I know. I can’t wait to hear your cries as you breath into this world. I can’t wait to look down at my wife, exhausting, but glowing. She’ll be looking at you. But I’ll be looking at the two of you. No moment will ever match this. No moment will ever feel so accomplishing. So important. As to when I see my family together for the first time. Honestly? I can’t wait to have kids. I’m so excited to hear uncoordinated footsteps fill the hallways of my home. Followed by high pitched laughed filled screams and the voice of my wife shouting “I’m gunna getcha!” I can’t wait to pull you both close onto my lap as I read the same bed time story I’ve read every single night for the past month. Watch both of your chests rise and fall together as your breath becomes rhythmic. I can’t wait to sit on that couch with you both asleep in my lap not wanting to move because no matter how tired, how uncomfortable I am. For god sakes I couldn’t look away if I tried. There are so many things in this world I look forward too. But this lifetime I’m going to get to create? I am so excited for.”
— I can’t wait to meet you.

My God, I can’t wait to be sitting next to my wife and see my children stumbling down the stairs, half asleep in their Christmas pajamas. Watching their eyes light up when they see what Santa brought them and experiencing the magic of Christmas through their eyes. The hushed laughs of wrapping gifts, so the kids don’t hear. The wine drunk tip toeing while putting the presents out. The jumping on the bed, telling us that Santa came. I want it all.
One day you’ll be in your kitchen, dancing like a fool to an old country song, making breakfast for dinner, and you’ll hear her whisper how much she loves you as she giggles. This is the moment you’ll realize, the universe put you through all the Bullshit to make sure you were right there - in that very moment - with the love of your life, in the home you’ve made together, saying I love you and truly meaning it. I look forward to that day.
