"no hints were dropped" ok not to be that person but here are the hints that were dropped regarding Colin and Trent being gay:
1. Colin mentioning Grindr in a joke
2. Trent touching the arm of a man in the background
Here is one of the hints that Keeley was bi (even though I do believe she's been canonically bi since season 1, but not everyone sees it this way)
1. Her desktop background was in the colors of the bisexual flag
Here were some of the hints that Ted was bi:
1. Bisexual flag colored triangles above his head in the hallucination sequence
2. Inverted pink triangle next to him in that same sequence (and you can't tell me the creators didn't know, when the Homomonument is based on that symbol)
3. Countless (countless!!!) comments about men's physiques ("huge muscular thighs all caked in mud", whistling at a picture of Pep, "look at that head of hair", "he's strong", "he looks like a Rodin sculpture in cleats", etc.)
4. About a man (Higgins) and a woman (Rebecca), he had to say: "that's a crowd I don't mind being smack-dab in the middle of"
5. Him checking Trent out in the pub in 2x07 (his eyes are up there, Ted!)
6. "It could go either way", "I contain multitudes" and other comments in this vein
7. Bi lighting as he entered the Yankee Doodle Burger Barn
8. Giving similar looks to the female waitress and the male waiters in that restaurant (including a waiter in a cowboy costume that looked like he belonged in a gay club, who tipped his hat at Ted when greeting him)
9. "That's cause you were put into a box", "That box ceases to exist today", the box in the hallucination sequence breaking into triangles (as in the bi triangles and the inverted pink triangke), "we've been playing too rigid", "our guys need freedom", "fast, fluid, free, with full support", the "box that one needs to break out of" being a prominent motif in season 3
10. Wishing Beard called him pet names ("Honey, is that an ingredient or something you just called me?")
11. His crush on Pep
12. The connection between Ted and Colin: "my whole life is two lives, really", both wearing orange in Sunflowers, "I just want to kiss my fella" (Colin doesn't say "fella" , but Ted says it all the time), Ted just needs to get inspired and Colin's play is "inspirational" after he comes out, as per the commentators
And so much other stuff that, had Ted not self-identified as straight (*cough* put himself into a box *cough cough*) , you could make the case that he was canonically bi.
Here are some of hints that there was a romantic connection between Ted and Trent:
1. They hit a lot of romantic beats, and not in the jokey self-aware way in which Roy and Ted hit them in "Rainbow", but in an organic and sincere way
2. They both checked each other out: Trent checked Ted out when Ted was changing in front of him, Ted checked Trent out when Trent came up to him in a pub and hit him with a pick-up line while his date that looked a lot like Ted waited for him outside
3. Did I mention that Trent was on a date with a moustachioed man who dressed in a similar style to Ted? Let's mention it again
4. In that very bar, during a 50 second long conversation, Trent managed to say the word "love" three times. I searched the word "love" in the transcripts of the episodes. There's no other instance in which its frequency is this high
5. "Love our chats" incomplete rule of threes
6. "Sport, it's quite the metaphor" (implied: a metaphor for love; see also "love's a beautiful game" from the song Ed Sheeran wrote for Ted Lasso), "Also makes for a heck of a nickname", "Good night, Ted", "Good night, sport"
7. The soft, romantic, melancholic song playing in the background of this scene, while Ted and Trent are the last ones left in the office, with lyrics such as "When your words begin to crumble like the sidewalks all around this crummy neighborhood / From the chalky cliffs of Dover / I'd come over, I'd start over if I could"
8. Trent wearing sunflower colors in the episode "Sunflowers" and in the finale; sunflowers symbolize Ted's home (it's not subtle). He's the only character dressed like that. I'm still looking for any other explanation other than "Trent is Ted's home"
9. Their constant flirting and the way they look at each other with incredible fondness
10. The entire episode "The Strings That Bind Us". It's structured around Ted and Trent's relationship, and the way Trent changed because of Ted (in season 2, Ted defined a soulmate as someone who changes your life forever). The red string metaphor. Ted points out that soulmates are connected by a string tied to their little fingers. Ted and Trent both extend their little fingers out in similar shots. They are connected by a huge block of red in their last scene of the episode. Ted makes several comments about other men that apply to Trent ("Look at that head of hair", "Frames his face nicely", "My favorite one, he was clean shaven"). Many more details that lead back to Ted and Trent: Nate tells the restaurant owner to tell Jade he said "Hello". Immediately after, Ted and Trent say "Hello" to each other. The map that Nate's father used to ask out his mom has the number 1.3 written on it and an illustration of two people at a table in a restaurant. Ted and Trent went to a restaurant together in season 1, episode 3. The last scene of the episode mimics a "Race for Love" scene from a romcom, with Trent chasing after Ted. Trent also does not say a word to anyone other than Ted in the entire episode. He is completely focused on Ted
11. "Trent, what do you love? Is it writing?" and Trent ends up writing a book about Ted and naming the manuscript after Ted and he only cares about Ted's opinion on it (he leaves the room when Beard starts reading, but stays in the office after hours just to watch Ted read. "I just wanted you to like it.")
11. Trent's crush on Ted, confirmed by Jimmy Lance (and also obvious in the show, if you ask me)
Now, why would I believe that none of these hints were intentional? Maybe some could be explained away, but all of them? The hints we got for Colin, Trent and Keeley were so much smaller than this, and those turned out to be intentional.
anon i wish i could offer you the response you deserve, but i cannot stop rereading this masterpiece & focusing on the portions of evidence you provided that i didn't even pick up on until you laid them out. holy shit
#IM LOSING MY MIND????? HOLY SHIT#anon you provided a THESIS STATEMENT#kissing you on the forehead & sending you flowers & baking your favorite bread#ted lasso#tedtrent#tedependent#trent crimm#there's also the casablanca references between them#& the way in amsterdam trent says there's a van gogh museum night. and where does ted wind up? at the van gogh museum looking at sunflowers#their arcs are foils too. both got divorced around the same time. both have one kid (ted has a boy and trent has a girl)#trent left his wife meanwhile michelle left ted#trent is happier post-divorce meanwhile ted struggles with the loss#there's the wizard of oz motif too and who wears red shoes? trent. it's subtle but he wears what look like red heeled shoes#speaking of shoes....the cheetah print motif is also present with trent#'hes our dork' and ted's fond gaze as he watches trent disappear#there's SO MUCH there dude SO MUCH

What makes early crassus so feral?
his family is extremely dead
#and he doesn’t really have anyone else to lean on for help in a substantial way#like there are no gods or legendary heroes on his family tree so you can’t propaganda spin that for a comeback#you’re going to have to dig your heels in and just. get it done.#through whatever means necessary#there’s that comment about him being dangerous enough that people actively avoid fighting with him despite the repeated statement#that his personality was mild and that’s not even getting into the fire brigade/extortion/landlord part of it all

Sometimes I think about the situation twenty years ago. And it can certainly be seen that in the area of sexuality and stereotypes around various topics it is decreasing.
My journey to self-discovery in my early youth was quite challenging. Just because there was less information. And so it was much more difficult to find similar people. And at the same time, it was quite difficult to confide in anyone without the risk of ridicule. All that was left was to hide from the world and get to know yourself in the safety of your home. Because the internet wasn't full of places back then where sexuality and its various forms could be openly discussed. Fortunately, we are further along today.
In a certain respect, the right was won. The right to be yourself. Of course, I realize that it is not the whole world. In the denocratic-minded world, we are still not fully respected. But at least we are tolerated. So it is possible to move freely and express oneself publicly. Maybe it's not enough for some, but for me it's a big progress. Precisely because, unfortunately, I am not twenty years old anymore.
Sometimes I'm a little envious of the younger generation who can perceive themselves better and sooner as they really want. Those who haven't experienced it before will probably not understand me too well. I just want to say live your life and don't be afraid to express your desires and inner self.
Enjoy video (bad resolution, pity) 💯🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈🖤

a few years back, during the Ikoria set, MTG did a marketing tie-in with the Godzilla franchise where certain creature cards in the set would have an alternate full-art printing, with the name and art of a roughly equivalent character from Godzilla lore. for the most part, it was pretty fucking sick:
however, there was a slight... optics issue with the alternate printing for Void Beckoner
"okay, so it's a big creature that can kill stuff with the mere suggestion of its presence before it ever hits the battlefield. hey, Godzilla had a deadly breath attack in one of the older movies, right? let's go with that!"
and so it came to be that the following card saw print:
in April of 2020.
this, in turn, led to WOTC scrambling to rename the card "Spacegodzilla, Void Invader" and put out this article, which still has by far the funniest title of any article on their website:
#my hearthstone/mtg group chat is still named Statement On Spacegodzilla#also this came right on the heels of them having. uh. another controversy about (old) card names#but that one was less “unfortunate but funny” and more “just racist”

- This song came on on the way to opening night and it really just underscored the feelings I had of arrival, confidence, and unabashed success. So it became the theme song for this outfit and my night. -
Opening Night at SEAF is statement night for me: With it being the first time people see me with my artist badge on, I want my opening outfit to show people exactly who I am. Every year has been different: Year One - I wanted to show up and show off; I'd finally made it and wanted to feel like it // Year Two: I'd been busting the butt all year and felt I earned the right to say I meant business when it came to my art - so I donned an open blazer and high end accessories, a boss uniform.
But this year was a little tougher than the last two: People tried to tarnish my artistic character; I had to realize that and say goodbye to some that left me blowing in the wind...It felt like people made it clear they wanted me to disappear and that others were fine with me disappearing. And honestly, if you asked me 10months ago, I wouldn't even be sure I could tell you I'd be around to see 2023 at all. But despite all that, I was here - in 'real life' and at the Seattle Erotic Arts Festival for the 3rd time in a row.
So for 2023's opening night fit, I wanted to be as visible as possible - a reminder to myself and any opps that I’m not just here, I am a presence here.
Something about this look was gonna catch that eye: the eyeliner (which really tried to play me but I was able to corral), the sweater (which I incorrectly thought would work as a dress but gave it that Ariana Grande vibe by wearing a sky high mini underneath), the nails, the shoes or the “so wrong its right” socks that I wanted to pop off the rest of the look. I wanted to be wear something that would make me stand out in the crowd because *I* am a stand out.
And, of course, in a sweater by @imrobinthisjoint emblazoned with affirmations of creativity and black excellence, I wanted to put on unapologetically for the kids that look like me in the art world, especially when I - a black artist - was displaying a piece shot by a fellow Black artist (the great @lamargphoto on IG), and doing so on a big stage in the shadow of experiencing the socially familiar attempt to write Black creative voices out of the story. So while I wore the sweater to represent, I also wore it as a reminder to myself that all the affirmations printed loudly on it were true about me: They are so impressed; I am divine success; and I did, I do, and I will craft that success my way.
I wanted to show those that tried to overlook or undercut me that your girl is present and in a big way and is impossible to miss. And if you're seeing me here it's because I belong here. Now let's get back to businessz shall we? On to the next one.

in all ways except physical i am a cis male drag queen. its a hard confession to make but when ya'll are talking about women's oppression im always first like omg stay strong queens😔i'm an ally and im #listeningandlearning. In a way i get what you're going through because i often get mistaken for a woman. thank god im not one though you guys seem to be having it ROUGH
#like thats the essence of being fem to me also. statements that are like mascs and butches are not men in fact they're almost#ontologically opposite to men and its so true#what people never say is that being fem however is basically just being a man. my experience of it at least#a man putting on makeup & heels for gay sex reasons and to be a little bit of a provocatrice

im the gender exploration prompter and I loved it!!!! Vander should definitely rip one of Silco’s pencil skirts, and I have a feeling Sil would like it, I mean all that alpha strength on display? very hot material (albeit silco would be annoyed that he had to replace his skirt). Also definitely imagined he was wearing classic black heels with the stockings and skirt, they all just go together so well.
Thank you for writing it!!!
Glad you enjoyed it.
Vander absolutely should rip one of the pencil skirts off Silco (probably part of the reason why he wants Silco to get more of them). Silco would love it in the moment - Vanders strength and the display of just how impatiently desperate he is to get at Silco's skin and be able to fuck him. It's just afterwards after the afterglow has worn off and he realises that Vander has destroyed an expensive skirt that he gets annoyed because now he has to replace it.
Oh he's absolutely wearing black heels with it. And while I do personally like a Mary Jane Pump with an outfit like that (first image below) I do think Silco would go with/styles more towards lace-up ankle-boot heels (second image below). I know, not the classic black glossy pump look, but trust me it does still look very nice.
#Arcane#Arcane omegaverse#omegaverse#Vanco#Silco Arcane#Vander Arcane#ramblings of the goddess#q and a with the goddess#anon question#my last pair of laceup ankle boots died a few years back#and I'm still in mourning and have yet to be able to replace them#but when I wear my red pencil skirt and black stockings#I do typically go the Mary Jane pump#or another pair of ankle heeled boots (that don't have laces)#something about it starting at the ankle#just gives it a bit more of a statement about it#while still looking neat

@bucket-of-hyperfixations yeah,,, hopefully it just won't get back to them
I categorically should not be obsessing over this argument this much, it's legit not healthy
It was really only one person, and I finally noped out of the argument so I really should let it go, but this broke my brain
Getting through to someone is when you say something so hostile it shocks them into silence. If they keep arguing it's because they're the unreasonable one after you did such a perfect job of getting through to them
If you're a social worker helping convince traumatized teenagers not to join gangs, the key is to tell them cool things like "You're a stupid girl" and "a middle schooler with delusions of grandeur"
Children love it when you do this,
#Parahumans#Wildbow#I'm going to hell for posting this#Armsmaster did nothing wrong everyone was just too in awe of his shining and perfect rationality#there's so many fucking layers of this#like ignoring the direct statements of the text from multiple characters that Armsmaster is ambitious#to the notion that Taylor is a criminal and therefore not a child and criminals must be crushed under the heel of good and shining cop law#ignoring the fact that all this was avoidable because arrest number go up so it must be a net good#to dismissing any sign that Armsy was selfishly motivated as Taylor's unreliable narration even when it's really obvious#to completely dismissing the power dynamic between a teenage aspiring hero and the highest-ranked hero in the city because Taylor Bad#they've basically ignored or rejected so much basic fact that arguing the point means either finding support for every bit of foundation#or ignoring a thousand bad assumptions and arguing on their level

my brother said “for our health class there were trigger warnings in the syllabus and usually when that happens it’s bad” and that wasn’t even the worst thing he said tonight. i was trying SO hard not to argue but he said enough stupid fucking things that i did in fact tell him that he was wrong and should try exercising some critical thinking skills.
#°#he was like 'i dont have to take this [from you] and it took all my power to say 'then why are you still here'#like he said SO many blanket judgement rightwing statements tonight and i just. he said ONE THING TOO MANY#but i didn't so yay me i know that's probably mean but it's like he's PURPOSEFULLY being obtuse because#that's what someone told him and of course hes not going to listen to me about it so like#idk it wasnt that bad all things considered and one thing that is surprising is that my parents didnt blame me for it.#it was just. he said somth which upset me and then he just said one too many wrong things and i was ok buddy ACTUALLY-#like i know i need to let it go bec he'll just dig his heels in but like i feel like i have to at least TRY
