Permanently Hiddlestoned. Also fond of jewels and music. I have a stash of chocolate, hankies, and alcohol to share, and there are plenty of pillows on the floor. Join me, won't you? Also on AO3 as LedaSF—read my stories!
it beggars belief that someone would choose to read a book in the “horror” genre, whose literal name promises that it will be full of upsetting, disgusting, frightening—one might even say horrifying—material, and then get mad that the book contains incest or whatever. like holy shit. they are not gonna make it in the real world
*me sitting down to read a horror book* better not be anything horrifying in here
I’m a lesbian and i see myself in media about bi women, also in media about gay/bi men. even if it’s not Entirely made for me, it’s still for me. and I know and hope that other gay/bi people are able to see parts of themselves in lesbian media. sorry to be cheesy but we are more similar than we are different and it’s those experiences we share that draw us to these stories in the first place, and the reason we’re even telling them <3
yes, this. it’s all queer, it’s all transgressive, it’s all made for us even though specifically it may not be specific to you.
i consider every bit of queer media as my media, because we are ONE. and because the themes and experiences often translate.
i will relate to any media from our community that will depict how to survive, live thrive and love in this world that doesn’t want us to.
and i create and write things that are close to my specific experience, i will gladly enjoy if people can resonate with them even if we’re different.
always be aware of the forces trying to divide the queer community. we are one, and we are strong.
“Speak not of what men deserve. For we each of us deserve everything, every luxury that was ever piled in the tombs of the dead kings, and we each of us deserve nothing, not a mouthful of bread in hunger. Have we not eaten while another starved? Will you punish us for that? Will you reward us for the virtue of starving while others ate? No man earns punishment, no man earns reward. Free your mind of the idea of deserving, the idea of earning, and you will begin to be able to think.”
— Ursula K. LeGuin, The Dispossessed.

One moment from that book that keeps coming back to me again and again.
so embarrassing when i forget im checking someone’s blog and i start scrolling through and liking and reblogging shit as if it’s just my dash. it feels like wandering into someone else’s apartment and not noticing and making myself lunch
reblog if i can wander into your apartment (blog) and make myself lunch (like and reblog as if it’s my dash)
If people don’t do that, then what the heck have I been doing for the last decade. The whole point of Tumblr is to have a place where you can go
I think it’s really important to write down how you feel when you actually feel good. Write about the environment, what you’re thinking, hearing, seeing–It’s necessary to take notice and be aware of that. I feel good right now because the window is open and there’s a nice light breeze coming in, and because it’s silent in my room, and not an anxiety inducing silence but a comforting one. You don’t have to pull out a notepad every single time it happens but every single one of us experiences one moment, however small, as being comfortable and safe, and I think they’re worth remembering. I think if I do this more often it’ll help with my crashes in the future. It’s not much but it’s something. It feels like a meditative state that I didn’t plan or force myself into but that the universe brought to me and it’s a nice thought.
