Marriage equality helps trans* people too.
iragray:
I personally don’t believe in marriage. I do think that if it’s going to exist, however, it better exist for everyone who wants to take part in it.
With each state that passes laws in favor of marriage equality, many members of the trans* community refrain from getting too excited and rightfully so: we’re still missing out on so many rights that are vital to our survival as human...
There is this scene in Tomboy
and I’m writing the review, and I want to talk about how freaking disturbing it is. Because, on the surface, this film is adorable. It’s about being a kid, and exploring your identity, and kids understanding so much more than their clueless parents.
But underneath, it’s about gender and identity and violence and consequences. And there’s this scene… (spoilers!)

I apologize in advance for how much “Oh god, I’m in the airport,” I’ll be doing for the forseeable.
Oh god, I’m in the airport. Also, Air Canada = le suck.
Wooow. If you guys think AC sucks, never, ever fly an Irish airline. Or BMI. Or Delta (omg Delta have literally lost my luggage every freaking time I’ve flown with them.)
We fly Air Canada exclusively. After...

Car will be here in an hour and change.
All the feels.
How do people who, like, go on tour and shit do this?
presumably with a truckload of anxiety. :) Bon voyage!
Not sure if anyone else noticed
But Kurt’s trousers in the hospital scene are virtually painted on. Who does a hospital visit in trousers like that with someone who has a crush on you?
The skinny people at work are measuring themselves...

Two things
1. I cannot stop listening to Cough Syrup. It’s becoming a problem.
2. How drunk was Darren Criss when he said “And I dig the homosexuals.” (x)

Here’s a thing.
about bad writing and not-bad writing. It’s Glee related, but it’s not just about Glee, and that’s the point.

There will be a postscript

(I cannot do social for this, I cannot do the math or the rituals, please don’t make me. Please let me say this and only have it matter where it needs to.) (Just pretend you didn’t read...

My whole life is a trigger warning
I think that when we talk about suicide we talk a lot about depression and being gay and being young and circumstances.
December 17, 1997, I returned to my apartment after a lunch with friends, took every pill I could get my hands on, downed a bottle of wine, and wrote a letter.
Then the phone rang. It was my mother. I was getting very drowsy — a mix of painkillers and wine was working...
Not sure I can talk about the ep, really, just yet.
It’s funny. Some days, like today, I’m not even sure I like Glee. I distrust it so much for the ways it fucks with my head, and yet I respect that it has the ability to do that when so much else doesn’t.
Still taking deep breaths.
How’s everyone else?

Anonymous asked: "To me it sounds like it’s about something you can never escape" The Pavarotti symbolism still seems to be alive in Blaine. The pretty bird singing in a gilded cage he can never escape, barring death. Blaine with his expensive things & preppy bedroom. Surrounded by equestrian, polo & fencing trophies. Everything about Blaine suggests upper crust. Yet where are his...
I just want to see Blaine really lose it
naomiraven:
like screaming and raging and crying and breaking stuff… I don’t know why but I feel like he’s a ticking time bomb… like he keeps so much buried… this episode kind of showed us what might be beneath the charming, perpetually happy exterior… and Cough Syrup was an amazing performance… but like what did Burt say to Kurt in season one? “You don’t sing a song like that if you’re okay”...

fuck you glee. this is so dumb.
People don’t commit suicide because of depression or a variety of issues, it’s because they cheated on a math test. Just ugh.
Uh, exactly, they don’t. Will’s always had issues with his dad and...

So I was away on the weekend
And there was this whole “I have to be social” thing. And I dread it. And often make excuses.
But my wife’s friend had a 17 year old daughter. Who writes fanfic. Not the same fandoms, but it didn’t matter. We chatted away like crazy. Fun, fun, fun. My wife and her mom were laughing saying neither of us ever talk to anyone.
It just goes to show that we’re not...

blaine fans: OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THIS POOR BABY UGH I WANNA HUG YOU
Just watched a film
I have to write the review for next week, so no rushing.
It was really excellent. It was beautiful and oh, so FRENCH, which I just die for anyway. And even if you didn’t understand French, and there were no subtitles, you’d totally know what was going on anyway. It’s really physical.
And it was so smart. The writer/director didn’t explain anything. She just showed us a...

blaine: life's too short to even care at all, whoa oh, i'm losing my mind, losing my mind, losing control. these fishes in the sea, they're staring at me, whoa oh, a wet world aches for a beat of a drum, whoa oh. if i could find a way to see this straight, i'd run away, to some fortune that i should have found by now, i'm waiting for this cough syrup to come down, come down
kurt: you ok

i’m going through the 5 stages of grief for blaine anderson
1. Denial
It’s okay. Blaine is a great character. We get a story ALL about Blaine when the hiatus is over. It’s all good.
2. Anger
FUCK YOU RIB+!
3. Bargaining
I’ll stop tweeting you guys hateful messages. I promise. Just give us something. Anything. Even just one little scrap. Please…

Right. Because it’s certainly not important to portray an actual loving relationship between two gay men. That in no way sends a positive message for the gay community. Instead it should all be about how gay…

Re: that pic of Karofsky
Don’t read this if you don’t want to read about triggery self-harm stuff. I’m pretty frank about it.
WHY DOES MY CUT KEEP DISAPPEARING?
If it was an attempted OD, he should have an IV connected to his hand. He’d need stuff to help his liver cope with the poisons.
He has an o2 sat clip on his finger instead, which would suggest something else? Like CO poisoning? Or...
