Study

when has anyone EVER said that homophobia is izzy’s only motivation. i’m on team “gay homophobe izzy” and i do not think this is his only motivation. i don’t even think it’s his primary motivation. it is another layer of complexity on a fascinating character. he is gay and in unrequited love with ed. he craves power and leadership but he is not good at managing those things when he gets them. he thinks men should behave a certain way and is aggressive and cruel to the men who don’t meet his standards. men having sex with each other is fine, but men falling in love with men falls outside of his rigid idea of how men should behave. he lacks the emotional maturity to be able to identify his feelings towards ed. he is so repressed he only accepts intimacy in the form of physical violence. he blames stede for ed changing. he hates stede because ed is changing. to izzy, the worst part about stede changing ed is the fact that stede is such a pathetic excuse of a man it shatters izzy’s image of ed to think that ed could find anything about stede appealing. he’s dedicated his life to the version of ed that he’s made up in his head. he is possessive of being the only one to call him ed, to be the only one who gets to call the legendary blackbeard by his name. but izzy has never been able to see ed without blackbeard. to him, knowing ed is a privilege only because ed is who’s behind the legendary blackbeard’s curtain.

i think izzy is fascinating. he's a fantastic character. he is incredibly well written. he plays a crucial role in the narrative. this show would not be the same without him.

im telling you now, having spent my time in this fandom primarily interacting with people who also read izzy as homophobic, anyone who is using this interpretation to reduce izzy's complexity is by far in the minority with that take.

ah yes! the joys of executive dysfunction and something being Fundamentally Broken In Your Braincase!

Honestly who is even the target audience for this zelda movie. If it was for kids they would've made it an animation probably, and obviously they want it to reach wider audiences than just people who are already fans of the games, but like. This is a fantasy video game movie full of magic and weird and silly looking creatures, I can't help but feel like that would be off-putting to a lot of people who would think it's silly (which it will be probably. God I just know they're gonna make Link be like super sarcastic and have a bunch of one liners I can't do this)

im gonna be real i think the target audience is mcu fans

Something soft of my bees Hunnie and Poppy! I’ve had this lying around for a while and decided to post it! Eventually I’ll get around to rendering it

unpopular opinion: booktok girls overhate male authors, most of the time for no reason other that their gender, and old misogynistic literature that they [booktok girls] think represents all of them[male authors].

you know, there's so many nice words that start with the letter f that come to mind...

took a mock ielts test today

tbh it's still crazy 2 see progressive (ie western slash european & american i guess? yanno wat i mean. places wher we r nawt radicalised & illegalised into it oblivion) audiences have such (understandably) high standards 4 queer media or even queer representation as a whole & won't take less than. like i understand it's cause ya can expect better so ya will, in sum cases ya can even demand better. but it's simply nawt an option 4 many of us.

like idk perhaps a bit too harsh of me 2 say but regardless of the political atmosphere there's still a difference between livin' in a place where ya still have rights, have pride & can walk into a store etc & find queer literature & rep & even merch, have resources 2 support yrself & find yr community. & a place where as much as wavin' a pride flag or even havin' a pride pin, OR G-D FORBID holdin' yer partner's hand WILL get ya arrested & jailed. an' yr lucky if ya don' get assaulted or killed be4 dat can happen 🫥

Fundraiser Update!

Hi Tumblr! Kieran from QLL here with a fundraiser update! We've already hit two-thirds of our fundraising goal, which is absolutely bananas, thank you for your support so far! That $15,000 goal looks more and more attainable every day. It kinda looks like we're gonna have to build you guys a queer library? Omg?

In the meantime, there's still one more weekend of Pride Month left! Still some time to celebrate! And we've got a little something for you, if you're up for it!

These are some quartersheet flyers that you can print out (at work perhaps) and share! Hand them out at your city's Pride events! Leave a stack at a local coffee shop! Pin them to a community billboard! Make it an outing with your buds to stop at all your favorite locales and drop some off! The QR code leads directly to the fundraiser.

As much as we adore our internet friends, we want to make sure that this project also reaches people who are slightly less terminally online than we are. Because they probably want to read queer books too!

Again. Thank you so much, tumblr. We love you so much, and we're so grateful for your support. <3
