I am trying to cook nice things again and in flipping through my cookbook was rudely reminded of the waffle problem which is: wow that waffle recipe looks good. I wish I could cook them for a lady! Because why the fuck would I make a whole batch of waffles for myself.

People being really hard on gay characters as if they must oppose and refute all negative stereotypes always can be terrible. As if model gays in RL must never be in denial of their sexuality, as if drinking should never be involved in a coming out story, etc, even though these situations are often part of our lives. It’s important to remain vigilant about queer representation, but honestly it...

Star Trek's History of Progressive Values →
idoitbrilliantly:
The progressive values of the show seem to have faltered—and even started falling behind the mainstream—by failing to add LGBT members to the crew of the Enterprise.
“Most television shows, at best, follow cultural trends. Star Trek had clear-cut ideals of its own,” wrote Joan Winston, Jacqueline Lichtenberg and Sondra Marshak in their 1975 book Star Trek Lives!, the...

ALL RIGHT LISTEN
i don’t give a single flying fuck about whether or not people are ~born gay/bi/pan. i really don’t, because it doesn’t fucking matter
saying “well they’re born that way” is not really supporting lgbt+ people. because what you’re really saying is that if it was a choice, you wouldn’t think that lgbt+ people would be correct in asking for fair treatment and...

Being skeptical that another person can be incapacitated by a mental illness because you cope just fine with your problems is basically the same as saying “I don’t understand why other people’s brakes fail, because my car works great.”
I reblog this every time.

Most of my favorite lesbian writers and artists seem to be leaving the Homestuck fandom in droves, which is a little sad! They can do whatever they want of course; it’s not like they have an obligation to produce content for this fandom. I know I’ll move on from Homestuck eventually, myself!
I’m just freshly reminded of how spoiled I was like 5 months ago. As soon as I...

“Home” was really disgusting; it deeply upset something within me to my core. I haven’t felt revulsion like that from a story in a long time. It was awesome!!!!

“Decolonization … continues to be an act of confrontation with a hegemonic system of thought; it is hence a process of considerable historical and cultural liberation. As such, decolonization becomes the contestation of all dominant forms and structures, whether they be linguistic, discursive, or ideological. Moreover, decolonization comes to be understood as an act of exorcism for...

Good Gawd, THIS.
I’m working to re-define my thinking about myself and walk in the glorious space of not being an object for other people’s visual consumption and the freedom it brings.
And reminding people of that fact...

The only Asians I remember seeing on mainstream TV when I was a kid were Sulu on Star Trek, nameless Asians loading trucks in the background or dying on MASH (which was all about funny lovable white US Americans waging war on Asians), and the “ancient Chinese secret” Calgon laundry...

I am almost finished with season three and while I understand why people would ship Mulder/Scully I just don’t. See it that way. Like the famous “conversation on a rock” that apparently got shippers in a tizzy back in the day was not romantic at all. It was more moirallegiance-y than anything else, with Scully challenging Mulder to think critically of his actions.
To use...
