oh thank god

The Mauler checks up on it's (old and sick) creator, Rotting Balance.

Taylor's American nature offending Nick's delicate British sensibilities.

sorry but Nicholas Galitzine going from playing a serious conservative asshole Marine (Purple Hearts) to the bottoming homosexual prince of England (Red White & Royal Blue) to a campy narcissistic high school quarterback in a lesbian fight club rom com (Bottoms) is absolutely insane I applaud this man's range and the audacity of his agent

bestie is really out here having an existential crisis in a slutty duke orsino robe

Hot take? A show with queer people in it from the beginning was never queerbaiting and— very literally and technically— never could. In the first episode, a gay man comes out to his family. And he doesn’t stop being gay after that; it’s a major plot point and part of his character going forward. You’ve had a married lesbian couple from the jump who are proud and unapologetic about their love for each other. The story has also portrayed several queer couples and stories in episodic plots, including featuring queer weddings.

Buck didn’t suddenly “become” bi. Queerness is not when straight people “turn” queer. He has been attracted to men the entire time; he has always been bi. Understanding yourself and your sexuality as a queer person is often so difficult under heteronormativity. Sometimes, it takes time.

Hell— Buck checking a guy out some time in season 3 or getting flustered by the idea he might like a guy, etc, etc, are not even examples “queerbaiting,” nevermind how the show already features queer stories.

I genuinely think some of y’all are just mad that he’s not sucking face with the man you want him to, and are being weirdly homophobic about it. “Buck kissing this man is kinda off-putting, lmao.” “Buck and his bf’s relationship is awkward. IDK, but it weirds me out.” “There’s something so cringe about Buck’s relationship—” “Who dates someone they haven’t been friends with for years first? It’s kinda creepy…” “I think their relationship is a weird mess. It’s not as meaningful as a slow burn.”

Life isn’t fanfiction and fanfiction tropes don’t make good writing. Most relationships start out with a “hey, I’m interested in you, let’s get to know each other.” You’re just transparently uncomfortable with two men expressing that interest in each other outside the arbitrary rules you’ve established to make a mlm relationship “legitimate” or “meaningful.”

[Fanfiction] tropes— from “there’s only one bed” to “we’re forced together, but fall in love anyway”— are responses to the sex-negativity and purity culture norms forced upon gender and sexual minorities. They provide a workaround for these norms but never a direct challenge. It’s like the Family Guy episode “Prick Up Your Ears,” where conservative Christian abstinence-only sex education leads to kids having ear sex. Ear sex is the workaround to the abstinence and purity rules they’d been taught, not the challenge. We still have stringent rules around who can touch whom and under what circumstances. Tropes reflect this. So, a trope like “there’s only one bed” provides the characters with a justification for their intimacy without directly challenging why it is taboo.

You’ve convinced yourself that shipping— and thus the tropes it employs— is more subversive than actual representation, and the people caught in the crossfire are actual queer people.

Also— for the love of fuck— stop comparing every mlm relationship to RW&RB.

Azula: Zuzu, I thought you were getting into international relations or something.

Zuko: I mean, technically Sokka and I–

Azula: If you finish that sentence, I’m gonna spend tonight in jail.

HELLO RAINWORLDERS!!! i've decided that, to celebrate 400 followers [and my newfound status as The Hunter Guy /j], i'm doing a big drawing of as many hunters as possible, like the survivor piece i did a while back!

if you want your design included, just reblog with it; no asks please my poor inbox is cluttered as is ^^"

and thank you all for 400 followers!!!! legit the biggest following i've ever had anywhere on the ol internet, and way bigger than i could've dreamed :] i appreciate all of u

I do not, I repeat, I DO NOT care how many times these images, or honestly any pictures or gifs are shared over and over and over again from Red, White, and Royal Blue.

I will fucking like/heart that shit like it's my job.

That is all, please continue to share four million more times. I promise, I'll probably like every goddamn post.

listening to my FirstPrince playlist and I forgot I had I don’t dance from HSM on it and just got pleasantly surprised. If anyone has some fanart of them in this scene, please do share because this is the most FirstPrince song that ever existed.

It had to be done.

i want to draw ancients,,, give me ur ancient ocs

(u can also give me a slugcat/scav oc for me to ancientify but i might not do a lot of those cause they are hard to do </3)

as an international lawyer who finished their senior thesis consuming ungodly amounts of Cheetos, this picture of Taylor as ACD destroyed me

I’m just as feral for this moment as everyone else and I know a lot of ppl are talking about how Henry’s leading here…BUT MAY I REMIND YALL WHAT PROCEEDS THIS?!

Alex secluding Henry only to pin him to a table in front of a founding fathers portrait to make out and then LEAVING 7(5, thanks Amy) minutes in heaven by saying:

“You are gonna go be, like, five hundred feet away from me for the rest of the night, or else I am going to do something that I will deeply regret in front of a lot of very important people. And then,” Alex says, and he grabs Henry's tie again, close to the knot, and draws his mouth up to a breath away from Henry's. He hears Henry swallow. He wants to follow the sound down his throat. "And then you are going to come to the East Bedroom on the second foor at eleven o'clock to-night, and I am going to do very bad things to you, and if you fucking ghost me again, I'm going to get you put on a fucking no-fly list. Got it?”

So yeah man’s has a lot of catching up to do

No I don’t expect the Red, White, & Royal Blue movie to be a “good movie”. You think I read something titled “Red, White, & Royal Blue” for quality content? No motherfucker. I’m here for a laugh. I’m here to make fun of dumbass main characters. I’m here for the SHENANIGANS.

This movie is gonna suck ass just like God intended and I’m gonna EAT IT UP !!
