my thoughts on the prom. published on letterboxd, but I thought I'd show tumblr
I need all these fake woke people shitting on happiest season to really fuck off. as a community we shouldn’t be attacking each other or making each other feel like shit because of something that is special to us.
Everyone who says that Harper is a bad and toxic person is ignorant as hell and just wants to slap the word toxic on any possible thing.
As someone who’s been in the closet for a while and who is terrified beyond belief to come out because they’re worried about their well being and what people will think, I can relate to what Harper was going through those 5 days. Add to the fact that not only are her parents conservative, but they have her on a pedestal as the perfect child. Could you imagine the pressures of being perfect in your parents eyes and having this secret that could potentially ruin your family dynamic? She was in a fucking horrible position. Either potentially losing her family or losing the love of her life. Those 5 days were probably hell on earth for her. I know from my own experience that being in the closet is stressful beyond belief and terrifying. Not only maybe do others get hurt in the process, but we hurt ourselves the most. I hate myself for it and I’m sure Harper hated herself too. The whole situation is not as easy as some of you all think it is. Relationships aren’t all sunshine and rainbows. Everyone’s coming out story is different, but every story is equally valid.
Did Harper say or do things that may have hurt Abby? Yes. She did both Riley and Abby wrong at points in her life, but she realized what she did was wrong and that she hurt people and then corrected her wrongs. You can only criticize Harper if you’ve never done or said anything wrong in your life and if you’re a perfect human. NO ONE is perfect. We all fuck up and have fucked up and if you say you haven’t, you’re a rotten liar. Harper has flaws just like the rest of us, but she realized her wrong doings which hurt people. We have all hurt people to some extent, that doesn’t mean we are toxic. Stop throwing that word around like it’s nothing. Not every little damn thing is toxic for fuck sakes.
Abby and Harper had chemistry. Point blank. Just because they fought a few times doesn’t make that any less evident. Riley was a friend for Abby when she needed a friend, but that doesn’t mean she has to completely ditch the love of her life for her. Like????? Just say you’re more attracted to Riley/Aubrey than Harper/Mackenzie and go. I’m sick of this discourse and people trying to be fake woke all the time just for some fucking likes.
I’m a lesbian and I loved this movie and you can’t shame me for loving this movie. I enjoyed it because the characters felt like people I knew and could relate to. Or people that I have met in real life. Denial is a huge part of being so deep in the closet. It’s an instinct reaction. I know it. I’ve felt it first hand. The nerves and the anxiety is utterly terrifying and can send anyone into a breakdown. I’ve been there.
Just because Harper made mistakes doesn’t mean she doesn’t deserve happiness. THAT is a toxic way to think. Anyone who admits to their wrong doings and changes for the better, still deserves happiness. We all do. This community is supposed to be inclusive, but I feel like we are divided and it makes me so sad.
If you didn’t like the movie point blank, just say that. There really is no need to analyze it, dissect it and have all this discourse. I’m tired of seeing it.
Every story, every moment and every person in this community is valid no matter how tough their situation is. If you’re someone who’s in the closet and is terrified to come out whether it be because of acceptance or for your well-being, I stand with you and am here for you.
This is like unearthing an ancient artifact from a forgotten civilization
I like this joke!
I wanna go back to a time where my only worries were this picture.
it’s…fine to feel sexually attracted to women. i really dig a lot of cottagecore/farmer lesbian stuff, but it makes relationships with women sound like these fluffy, blushy, chaste, cutesy handholding affairs…you can want to have a garden AND rail your wife at the same time. i promise
rail your wife in the garden

This show was simultaniously where i learned that being called a slut could be shrugged off, and that there could be a gay person around old people without hell breaking loose. Also, sick burns.
Anybody else remember how for a few years after 9/11 it was totally reasonable to be scared of a low-flying plane or flying/airports in general. It was just understood the 9/11 was an event that affected the American psyche and even though most planes landed totally safely it was understandable to be scared.
But when young people who are increasingly forced to consider the thought of being shot in school or at concerts say they feel uncomfortable with people openly carrying guns in public, suddenly they're too sensitive and infringing on the rights of others.
I work in an event space. People are legit scared 24/7. I walked in to work and reached into my laptop bag and had to reach around to find my badge for a few seconds and people visibly flinched and one reached for a radio and told me after it was in case he had to radio for an active shooter. This is not just young people. Convention centers and arena staff are on constant vigil, I'm sure people in parks and school officials are too. Like we hear a car backfire or something loud drop and bang and the building staff all tenses ready to go to active shooter protocol. The stress that puts on people is fucking immeasurable.
There are a lot of times I feel like just…flipping the vegan script.
It’s not ‘polyester’ it’s plastic
It’s not ‘vegan leather’ it’s plastic
Its not ‘faux fur’ it’s plastic
Plastic is a pollutant and causes far more damage to the environment both now and in the future than leather or wool.
Please stop telling me that the Plastic Lyfe is the only life, it is not. My leather shoes will last a decade where pleather is lucky to last 12 months. Leather (and wool) decompose and are renewable. Plastic is neither of those.
THANK YOUUUUUUU~
A single wash cycle of plastic-based fiber (polyester, poly fleece, faux fur) may release 700,000 pieces of microplastic into our waters. Nasty stuff.

Wool is the most environmentally friendly fabric despite being an animal product.
Using wool isnt even harming sheep
Sheep need to be sheered or else it will cause serious problems. It’s a mutual relationship, we help sheep get rid of the pesky wool and it gives us a very useful material.
This has been a Burning Hot Take™

Also chickens will lay eggs no matter what!! That’s literally what chickens do!!! You are not eating “chick embryos”!!! If you’re worried about supporting the corporate mass farming industry, buy from a local free-range chicken owner! Almost anywhere has farmer’s markets!
This is the part where we talk about how the demand for agave nectar as an alternative to honey is destroying the habitat of the endangered long-nosed bat, which lives on agave.
Bees literally make an excess of honey, too much for them to handle. Beekeepers are helping them by taking honey. BEE MOVIE WAS LITERALLY ABOUT THIS HOLY SHIT
I really wish I could kiss her tonight
I don’t really know what TikTok is, but this pleases me. (Sound required.)
sorry but if your bed isn’t against at least one wall you’re not valid
I used to think this post was stupid because most people like both sides of the bed free but then I realized some psychopaths put their bed like this so not even the headboard is against a wall and this post is about these animals.
A single person’s bed is generally against 2 walls, a couple’s bed is generally against 1 wall, and people with 0 walls have no fear of the dark/unseen with direct access to their head, and therefore cannot be human.
ok the bed just out in the middle of the room is bad but have you considered: only the footboard end against a wall
no i hadn’t. why would you put that image into my head?
Alternatively: bed shoved into a nook so that three sides are touching walls
No one here has asked which three sides so I present three options:
- Headboard, footboard, and one side
- Headboard and both sides
- Footboard and both sides
1 and 2 are ok, kinda weird but ok, but 3 is the worst thing ever and if anybody has their bed like that they are the spawn of satan.
I’m glad that 3rd one was received just as I intended it to be :)
Yes but think of the escape routes. If no side is touching you can run in any direction for when they come.
I’d personally like to have one side against a window so I can have the perfect escape method.
Having your bed against a window has its upsides but also it does mean that you may be vulnerable to Ghouls
Naw, ghouls and I are alright. *whispering* me and their queen dated
