iwtv is so fun because it's not really about vampires who happen to be gay. it's about gay ppl with personality disorders who also happen to be vampires
sorry we lost your stupid medication. go on seventeen righteous quests to find it
For the love of god, please vote. Is Kamala perfect? Of course not. But I’d 1000% rather drive anywhere else than off a cliff.
Happy pride month you beautiful humans, you 😘 (stickers available on my red bubble if you want em)
In a shocking turn of events Lestat is the most reliable narrator we've seen thus far
"and thats the end of it. theres nothing else" daniel, seeing theres still half an hour left of the episode and cracking his knuckles; time to ruin a third marriage
Actually, ex-Christians have earned the right to make fun of Christianity. It comes free with the religious trauma.
you know i don’t think we often talk about how difficult it actually is to suddenly realize that a belief you thought was good and moral and correct was actually really fucking toxic. how you have to look at something and go ‘oh shit, oh i fucked up. oh this is going to take probably years at minimum to deprogram from my brain because of all the little ways this shit pervaded the rest of my beliefs’
so. to all the people picking up all the pieces of a recently shattered world-view and trying to figure out what is safe to keep and what has to be thrown away and started over
to all the people having to relearn how to even listen to other people
to all the people putting in the work to do better while struggling with the guilt that comes from finding out you were the asshole
i’m proud of y’all.
it’s hard to admit being wrong and even harder to change in the aftermath. just keep doing the best you can and just know that the effort is appreciated. everyone can change. everyone can do better. keep fighting.
interview with the vampire and succession both fall under the category of “serious” shows that are also coincidentally engineered specifically to appeal to the tumblr demographic as they contain some staple tumblr darlings: 1. pathetic men 2. cringe-fail marriages 3. insane (gay) people
You won't get media with messier, more nuanced, more realistic queer characters if you keep flying off the handle the second a fictional character has sex, does drugs, swears too much, or acts vaguely like an asshole.
You won't get more diverse queer media with wider stories if you can't handle it when queer artists make art that is raunchy, crude, edgy, and gross.
You won't get more diverse queer media if you shut everything down the second it does something you, personally, get squicked out by.
You will never get more diverse queer media if you contribute to the way queer media is picked apart, raked over the coals, and held to unreasonably high standards.
You will never get what you want if you keep tearing queer artists down for their weird experimental art instead of learning how to say, "this isn't for me, that's fine, and I'll be over here in my own space."
Hi I'm Rachel. I make comics about mental illness and religious trauma (+ fanart) also on bluesky
