My transition goals? Amorphous entity constructed from pure thought. Once I shed this restricting mortal form to become simply a vague presence, unable to be observed but simply felt by those around me, I'll finally be able to live as my true self!

Literally fuck the entire concept of society like. Some people die bc they don’t have enough of some objectively worthless slips of paper for food or medicine like??? We just straight up put a price tag on human life and everyone just LETS IT HAPPEN????

In Good Omens episode 3, as Crowley and Aziraphale are watching the animals go into the ark, Crowley notices a unicorn escaping and says that they still have another one. That means that there were only 2 unicorns being put in the ark. According to the Torah, there were 2 of each non-kosher animal and 7 of each kosher animal. This shows that the unicorns were not kosher. For a mammal to be kosher, it must have split hooves and chew its cud. Since the unicorns are shown to have such hooves, this implies that unicorns did not chew their cud, so unicorns in Good Omens must have been carnivorous. In this essay I will

also I learned about this project called “queering the map.” the idea is that in the past gay neighborhoods and gay spaces were very clearly defined bc it just wasn’t safe to be yourself anywhere else. as lgbt+ people become more visible and accepted many feel that we are losing our connection to those spaces

so every dot on this map is basically someone’s queer experience: coming out, meeting their future wife, seeing another gay man in public for the first time, anything you can think of that truly left a mark on them

it started in Montreal and is primarily English-language with most pins dropped in the US, Canada, and Europe, but there are people all over the world who’ve shared their experiences. it’s great to look at places near you but it’s also great to see that even people in places you thought were the middle of nowhere are happy with themselves and finding community and living their lives

It’s here and it’s SO SWEET?? Just clicking around it’s very personal stories, in first person and a lot of them addressed to a specific “you”, and sooo many in extremely poetic language. It feels like an art installation and it’s so beautiful. ;W; Thanks for sharing!!!

… there’s also a lot of really silly ones (like gay sharks in the middle of the ocean)

I looked at Jerusalem and immediately found two favorites for entirely different reasons.

What to say if someone asks you if you’re a boy or a girl

  • “I don’t know what you mean”
  • “I’m not familiar with the concept”
  • “The results are inconclusive”
  • “I’ll get back to you on that”
  • Repeat different variations of “what?” and “huh?” until they give up
  • Laugh hysterically until they give up
  • “That’s what they all say”
  • “Explain”
  • “I plead the fifth”
  • “I forget”
  • Gasp in an offended manner and walk away
  • “You wish”
