It's so crazy when you realize whatever Louis and Armand were doing in s1 really was essentially a role reversal bdsm roleplay. Like we joke about it but that's what it literally was. They created a servile character of Rashid and imaginary relationship and storyline they would perform and kept the charade up whenever Daniel was nearby and maybe even when he wasn't. Like in ep6 they were still acting when Daniel was asleep! And it's kind of like the exaggerated reversal of their real dynamic and you can see Armand slip and get angry when he felt Louis went off script and spoke too disrespectfully. And you know it was sexual because in that scene where Louis is drinking Armand's blood they were basically having voyeuristic vampire sex in front of Daniel. Like if they just didn't want Daniel to know that Armand was a vampire they could've made up literally any other story, they didn't need to do the whole master and submissive servant thing. But they wanted to

i feel like disability advocacy and homeless advocacy go hand in hand. like overlap aside, if you can't be normal about homeless people then you probably can't be normal about disabled people either

I think that 2023 is a good time for many of us, and allies in particular, to practice again the dying art of minding our own fucking business when it comes to the identities and lives of other people.

You see someone from one of your classes in a public place with a different gender presentation/expression than they typically have? Mind your own business.

You discover that one of your coworkers is in a same gender relationship, but they aren't out at work? Not your place to share that information in the workplace.

You notice that your neighbor in a red state takes a road trip across state lines with their transgender child every 3-6 months? No you fucking didn't.

You overhear students in your classroom using a different name and different pronouns for one student than you are used to using? If you live in a state hostile to trans rights, pretend that you don't know anything about this and report nothing.

You suspect that an acquaintance of yours might be gay, but they deny it when asked directly? Leave them the fuck alone.

One of your friends refuses to publicly label their sexuality? Good for them, you aren't entitled to that information anyway.

Your sibling comes out to you as questioning, but isn't comfortable sharing that with your parents yet? Keep your fucking mouth shut.

Don't out people; coming out is a personal choice not a moral obligation. Don't demand personal information about other people's sexuality or sex lives. You aren't entitled to information about anyone's gender identity, assigned gender at birth, or transition.

Bring back privacy, allow people to have control over the information that is shared about them publicly; it might save their job, their housing, their parental rights and their child's safety, or even save lives.

Reading the vampire Lestat and holy shit the foreshadowing of Lestat speaking of being a child or young man that was horrified by witch burnings, of having empathy for those burned alive, really makes the fact that Claudia and Louis set him on fire worse, huh?

I think people need to understand that even after everything that happened in Paris in the 18th century between Lestat and Armand, even after Lestat rejected him, even after Nicky, ARMAND STILL KEPT A PORTRAIT OF LESTAT FOR OVER 150 YEARS in full view. And not any portrait of Lestat. It's Lestat in his WOLFKILLER red coat! Lestat at his bravest, at his most impossible rule breaking self, Lestat who was victorious when he should have died. That's the Lestat Armand chose to commemorate. Everyday, en route to the stage or when he spent time in his office writing a play, he had to look upon Lestat's face. He willingly looked upon Lestat's face. ARMAND MISSES HIM.

i imagine louis in paris in the beginning a lot like this

random person: oui

louis, through tears: lestat used to say that all the time

claudia: probably because he’s fucking french
