I'm so sorry but I'm doing some reading about the Piltdown man for a lab report and I found this picture and-

It is a beautiful day, and you are a horrible goose about to perpetuate a paleoanthropological hoax

90s anime bishounen who are actually two guys and the other guy is really tall and has long white hair and fucked up magical powers and is a bit of an asshole and also hundreds of years old but the first guys are kindhearted teenagers and they're both flaming and voiced by megumi ogata.

[id: screenshots of tiktok captions. the images say, “but the only reason we still love princess diana is because she did not have the time to disappoint us.”]

begging queer kids to read up on princess diana’s involvement with the community. yes, she was a rich, pretty monarch. yes, she died young.

but the reason why queer people love her is because she used her privilege during the aids crisis to advocate for sick queer men, when very few others would - much less someone of her status.

diana spent years advocating for the health and care of queer people with hiv/aids. in 1987, at the height of the epidemic, she opened the first specialist clinic dedicated to treating aids patients (the first clinic of it’s kind in the uk).

she also fought public hysteria by hugging and shaking bare hands with aids patients, at a time when aids was thought to be spread by skin to skin contact. not only that, she visited patients in the clinic regularly and even comforted them through their sickness.

and when queen elizabeth told her to try focusing on “something more pleasant”?

diana ignored her and kept fighting.

and this is only her work towards the aids crisis. she publicly called out the royal family, brought attention to numerous world issues, and was known as an advocate for empathy and kindness. she’s known and loved as the people’s princess for good reason

Can’t emphasize what a big thing it was that Princess Diana shook hands with people who had AIDS (without gloves!). My mom is straight as hell, and she pointed this out to me when I was like eight years old and had only just learned what AIDS was. (Though I didn’t yet know the connection to the LGBT community.) 

I know it’s cool to be cynical and hate people who are effortlessly wealthy, but people are multifaceted. We can still celebrate actions that uplift others, and learn from them. Because people DID learn from these actions.
