Me watching the LGBT community who almost never rarely gives black women and girls, asexuals, or aromantics genuine respect, pretend we’re all friends and have always treated us right the minute it’s June 1st and want to use black women(mainly darkskinned) and girls as their little poster girl:
Tumblr media
#asexual#aromantic#It’s always coming from the non black people(including other racial minorities) too#and the stuff coming out of the lgbt community towards black women and girls has gotten real nasty#i have seen numerous people(although they’re mainly black) say that black people are inherently queer because we’re unnatural and strange#in the eyes of white supremacy and white people#like are you ok in the head??? why do you want to say that black people are inherently strange and we defy every social standard#as of our existence is a social statement#I personally think the worst thing I’ve personally heard(from yet another black person)#was that black women and girls would get seen as men or trans women because our hair is nappy#what does our natural hair have to do with getting seen as men or trans women??#and the white lgbt people just applauded them and hearted their tweet#it annoys me how for some weird reason political and social movements will mainly use black women especially darker black women as rep#and It’s almost always by a non black person#like why don’t you use a girl or woman from your own race in your political and social justice artwork#oh wait that’s right#because in general the lgbt community views black women and girls as magical negras who will be their ride or die sista soulja#who will mule and fight for them no matter how badly they outright insult us or sneakily talk badly about us#pride month is basically another black history month when it comes to how everyone reacts to it#every reaction to it is superficial and they’re only celebrating us because they feel like they had to or wanted social points#had it been any other month they would’ve been focusing on the group that they belong to

maybe this is just a me thing, but it’s so incredibly personal and important to me that the angels and demons (for the most part) are referred to with they/them pronouns
Tumblr media
the best most obvious example is of course this scene with crowley and shax where they’re discussing beelzebub
but my point is. it’s natural. and natural in a way i don’t see a lot. i read a lot of queer contemporary/romcom (a lot of it YA), and i love those stories. but a lot of the time the pronouns are A Thing™️. you’re almost forced to notice it, not in a bad way. but in a “this character’s gender is a plot point”.
but good omens is one of the few pieces of media i’ve personally seen that uses singular they/them pronouns for characters and no one says anything. and on top of that it’s adult actors, not teens not 20-something. whole ass grown adults. that means a lot to me.
my pronouns are they/them and i can’t tell you how many times i’ve heard people say that it’s “so confusing” to use my pronouns correctly. like no the fuck it isn’t you just aren’t trying at all. and seeing characters use it so naturally and unquestioningly in media means a lot to me.
btw if you’re wondering about the other media i’ve seen this done in, it would be A Psalm for the Wild Built by Becky Chambers and also Black Sun by Rebecca Roanhorse. however in Black Sun it’s neopronouns not they/them!

speaking of kitty disabilities. i think on and off about leopardstars diabetes and how that apparently caused her death (I may be misremembering its been years) and im curious if in your rewrite the cats...know what diabetes is? and how to manage it? any cats in your canon with more ''invisible'' disabilities?
When it comes to disabilities, I try to be careful about which ones I add. I don't want to spread myself too thin by tossing in a bunch of disabilities just to have them, and then end up with lackluster representation of that character's daily life.
I did a ton of research into epilepsy and HRT before committing to those; and with ADHD, Autism, and BPD I have personal experience with either having, or loving someone who has those things.
But as you know, canon also has some disabilities already in it which were treated poorly. I'm committed to treating these better than canon did, and NOT cutting any that were important. What that means is that I have two baskets of disabilities in my head;
The ones I'm adding; I do NOT put these in until I've done a ton of research and feel confident that I could treat it well.
The ones already present; which I don't want to remove, and know that I will be working with.
And the ones that ARE present in canon are; Deafness, blindness, paralysis, diabetes, anxiety, asthma, and limps/leg deformities. In addition, intrusive thoughts, hallucinations, and epilepsy were present as plot devices (in ways that I have spoken about personally finding abelist).
So even without those last three, I have 7 major ones on my plate to faithfully research, plus the additional 4 neurodivergances/disabilities (im counting epilepsy as a one im adding because of how badly shadowsight's was handled in canon :/)... so, 11 is already a big number.
But! Diabetes is one of those. I am not removing it. Eventually I would like to have the cats recognize and be able to treat it.

Now, I’m a changed person, and I’ve sworn never to resort to shady tactics ever again!
However, I need to let off some steam! Do you mind if I join you~?
( @blastingtowardsbluerskies )
Oh, absolutely. I'm debating on whether to continue onto Goldenrod or go to Celadon. Either way, I'm going home with so much stuff in my pockets. Not like they'll be missed anyways.

Just watched The Glass Onion and OH MY GOD. It's freaking hilarious that this movie was made even before Musk announced he was buying twitter!! Holy shit Rian Johnson what astrologer did you consult for the timing of this release??
Knives Out was tighter, more layered, the pacing was better and kept me guessing until the end. But The Glass Onion wins for this alone:
Of the film's relevance to current events, Rian Johnson claimed "A friend of mine said, 'Man, that feels like it was written this afternoon.' And that’s just sort of a horrible, horrible accident, you know?"
I'm imagining him saying this in Benoit Blanc's accent.
Off to read Ben Shapiro's twitter meltdown about it now.

yall idc if you're gaylor or hetlor or bilor or whatever, we should all be agreed on one thing: that that article was fucking invasive and inappropriate
taylor swift is a human being and there is a difference between harmless speculation and an attempt to broadcast said speculation to a mainstream audience WHETHER OR NOT it's true

The U.S. House passed a bill Thursday that would allow Puerto Rico to hold the first-ever binding referendum on whether to become a state or gain some sort of independence, in a last-ditch effort that stands little chance of passing the Senate.
The bill, which passed 233-191 with some Republican support, would offer voters in the U.S. territory three options: statehood, independence or independence with free association.
“It is crucial to me that any proposal in Congress to decolonize Puerto Rico be informed and led by Puerto Ricans,” said Rep. Raúl Grijalva, D-Ariz., chairman of the House Natural Resources Committee, which oversees affairs in U.S. territories.
The proposal would commit Congress to accept Puerto Rico into the United States as the 51st state if voters on the island approved it. Voters also could choose outright independence or independence with free association, whose terms would be defined following negotiations over foreign affairs, U.S. citizenship and use of the U.S. dollar.
Majority Leader Steny Hoyer, who has worked on the issue throughout his career, said it was “a long and torturous path” to get the proposal to the House floor.
“For far too long, the people of Puerto Rico have been excluded from the full promise of American democracy and self-determination that our nation has always championed,” the Maryland Democrat said.
After passing the Democrat-controlled House, the bill now goes to a split Senate where it faces a ticking clock before the end of the year and Republican lawmakers who have long opposed statehood.
Puerto Rico Gov. Pedro Pierluisi, of the pro-statehood New Progressive Party, traveled to Washington for the vote. “It’s going to be a historic day because it’s going to create a precedent that we hadn’t had until now,” he said.
Members of his party, including Puerto Rico Resident Commissioner Jenniffer González, cheered the expected approval of the bill, although reaction in the U.S. territory was largely muted and tinged with frustration since it is expected to be voted down in the Senate.
The proposal of a binding referendum has exasperated many on an island that already has held seven nonbinding referendums on its political status, with no overwhelming majority emerging. The last referendum was held in November 2020, with 53% of votes for statehood and 47% against, with only a little more than half of registered voters participating.
The proposed binding referendum would be the first time that Puerto Rico’s current status as a U.S. commonwealth is not included as an option, a blow to the main opposition Popular Democratic Party, which upholds the status quo.
Pablo José Hernández Rivera, an attorney in Puerto Rico, said approval of the bill by the House would be “inconsequential” like the approval of previous bills in 1998 and 2010.
“We Puerto Ricans are tired of the fact that the New Progressive Party has spent 28 years in Washington spending resources on sterile and undemocratic status projects,” he said.
González, Puerto Rico’s representative in Congress, praised the bill and said it would provide the island with the self-determination it deserves.
“Many of us are not in agreement about how that future should be, but we all accept that the decision should belong to the people of Puerto Rico,” she said.
