Eddie: This person asked what’s the worst thing about you, babe
Steve: Oh, let me guess. You said my clothes? My taste in music?
Eddie: Nope. I said that you’re perfect and I love every ounce of you
Steve: …That’s actually really sw-
Eddie: Except your ass
Steve:
Steve: *offended*
Eddie: It’s very distracting. And I have ADHD. Think of all the songs that I could have written if not for your ass.
Eddie, laughing when Steve gets up and huffs out the room: Hate to see you go, love to watch you walk away, baby!
Steve, from a distance: I’m getting a cup of water to throw at you!!
Jeff reposts the Tiktok to his Twitter account with a picture from tour of Steve doing squats on the bus, shirtless and in his underwear because their AC was faulty and it was summer. In the background, Eddie and Gareth are clearly watching him. He captioned it: The ass that derailed dozens of band practices.

Disney: absolutely no gay!
Tom the executive producer of Loki to everyone: we're doing the gay. Idc because Loki and Mobius obviously have feelings for each other. I. FEEL. IT.
Tom to Owen:
Owen: say no more
Tom to Natalie: LOKIUS REAL
Natalie Holt: proceed to include Mobius as drum + guitar in the finale Loki theme. *Cue drums and guitar while "let time pass" echoes. Repeat mobius' melancholy melody and slowly build up to a darker Loki theme and also there's this new heroic tune that represents Loki's heart getting kintsuki by mobius' gold and their melody supports each others throughout the theme

GAY ICONS ANNA MAY WONG
As a young child living in Los Angeles during the early 1900s, Wong Liu Tsong dreaming of being an actress (Liu Tsong meaning "willow frost"). At the age of nine she pestered film crew to hirer her… so much so that she gained the nickname "C.C.C." or "Curious Chinese Child". Two years later she came up with her own stage name (Anna May Wong) - a combination of her original Chinese name and the Angelisized name used in school.
Despite her father’s objections, she was cast as an extra in The Red Lantern (1919) - her film debut. Soon, this and other extra roles motivated her to quit high school and pursue acting full time. She later said of her decision:
"I was so young when I began that I knew I still had youth if I failed, so I determined to give myself 10 years to succeed as an actress."
Her first screen credit came in 1921, when Wong was cast as Lon Chaney’s wife in “Bits of Life”. The next year she appeared in “The Toll of the Sea”, one of the first movies filmed in color. Variety singled out her performance as being “extraordinary”.
But unfortunately, despite her talent, Wong was primarily cast in stereotypical Asian roles. And if a film with a well rounded Asian character was available - Hollywood cast a Caucasian actress in “Yellow Face”.
For a time Wong had better success when she movie to Europe. There she befriended Marlene Dietrich and (pre-Nazi Propagandist) Leni Riefenstahl.
When Wong returned to Hollywood, she costarred with Marlene Dietrich in “Shanghai Express” in 1932. Although it was a supporting role, she played an important and heroic character.
During WWII, Wong focuses her efforts on raising money to help the Chinese cause against Japan.
In 1951, Wong starred in “The Gallery of Madame Liu-Song”, a 10 episode TV series where she played an art dealer turned detective - a major breakthrough as the first US television show starring an Asian-American.
Wong had planned to appearing in the film musical “Flower Drum Song” (1961) but died of a heart attack before production began.
The United States Mint announced in 2021 that Anna May Wong would be one of the first women depicted on the reverse of the quarter coin. This made her the first Asian American depicted on American coin.
Anna May Wong never married. When asked why not, she would answer:
“I am wedded to my art.”
She lived in an era when gay men and lesbian women dare not reveal themselves. But rumors persist that Wong was a lesbian. She has been linked to Marlene Dietrich, Leni Riefenstahl, Alla Nazimova, and Cecil Cunningham.
Whether Anna May Wong was a lesbian or not, her story deserves to be told.
UPDATE: Mattel released an Anna May Wong Barbie doll in May 2023!
