I’d rather a straight person call me queer than LGBT tbh
My truest experience of straight allyship was when I had just broken up with my partner and then my electrical clippers broke so I started crying and my cishet friend gently asked me in a soft voice “is this a dyke heartbreak thing? Do you want me to invite the homos over?”
And yeah,
It was a dyke heartbreak moment and I did need the homos to come over,
But what really healed my soul was knowing that this cis straight person looked at me and saw exactly who I was
by the way, it’s real bold of hollywood to be like “the writers and actors have unrealistic expectations, but WE know what we’re doing” when they got tricked into releasing morbius in theaters a second time.
I think if a studio exec says they want to force you to starve to death so you’ll be made to accept garbage wages, you should crush them in a hydraulic press incredibly slowly
Like the fact that rich people have gotten to the point where they think they can just be like “oh yeah I’m literally trying to kill you” without fear of repercussions is beyond infuriating. They need to know what it feels like to be beaten to death by hammers.
CGI animators should unionize next. normally, their jobs would be too precarious to strike, since studios would replace them without a second thought, but if it’s part of this larger general film strike, they might finally have meaningful power to better their working conditions
if CGI animators unionized, it would kill the MCU. straight up. the the entire business model is built on exploiting CGI animators
Quinta Brunson appearing on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert
I really appreciate that she said this.
So often in this industry – in every industry really, but definitely in the arts – it’s like, go-go-go. What’s next? How are you going to get to the next level? How are you going to one-up this? And it’s because success feels so rare, and once you have it, it feels like you have to keep moving upward to keep it.
But it’s not that simple. “Success” is not that solid – it’s not that elusive either, depending on your definition of it.
Quinta has a HIT NETWORK SITCOM. She doesn’t have to one-up shit. She can rest if she wants to! She should! I hope she has comfy pajamas!

also unreliable narrators but especially unreliable narrators who change things because they think it’ll make a better story. they’re not sure whose listening but they need to make this good. maybe it doesn’t matter that this horrible event happened if they can spin it right. it could have been cathartic right? they ask a audience who will never respond.
I’m know I’m not the first person to say this, but any newbies on tumblr really need to understand how different this is from a lot of other social media. Particularly tiktok.
I just saw a creator on tiktok reminding followers that it’s actually a problem when someone goes back to the earliest post and watches all the posts chronologically, liking and commenting along the way. The stupid app recognizes it as spam or something and then kinda puts a halt on their account? Literally punishing people for positive engagement?? 🥴🤦♀️
I’ve already heard people saying years back how they don’t want to be “creepy” and go through a persons blog, liking and reblogging tons of stuff. But think how many more people are going to be worried about it now, thinking they might do actual damage! Most people, especially younger people, are so used to the way tiktok works now. So please, do not ever worry about this on here. Just remember-
You will never do any harm if you go on a like and reblog fest through someone’s tumblr blog! The only risk you’re taking is to make the blog owner weep for joy!! 😭🤣
This website literally passes around posts that are so old, the newest comments are celebrating things like “Happy 10th anniversary to this post!” sometimes.
The worst that usually happens is a creator going “wait, what, HOW did you find that 7 year old post that had no tags buried in the depths of my blog?”, very few people actually get mad about it (and from what I’ve seen, the people who do are all entirely immigrants from socmed sites like TT where they have entirely different cultures about it.)
Tumblr itself is based around longevity in many ways. So, just have at it. Have fun. If you like that post 12,000 pages deep on my blog, GO FOR IT. That’s what this website is all about
