Hello my sweet March 🩷🩷
“Josie’s a beauty with a generous heart, but her voice was what first got me. I was like a moth to the flame.”
Hemlock and Josie, I love everything yall got going on 🥹 Can’t stop thinking about the Band Days….
i cannot overstate how good it feels to watch older movies where the actors were still allowed to look kinda weird and not be conventionally attractive. like it is genuinely healing
my least favorite erasure of peter parker friendship is flash thompson. peter and flash went through so much in the comics, from highschool rivals to begrudging friends (crushing over the same girl multiple times lol), flash bettered himself and peter realized his view of himself and others wasn’t as candid as he thought, that second chances are warranted even to people he didn’t like. they become friends, they even become roomies! flash and peter stand by one another, in spite of peter’s highs and very low lows, down to the whole hobgoblin debacle. when peter gets married, flash is his best man! yet the movies pay him dust, reducing him to a dumb jock or giving them a good moment but fundamentally ignoring flash post-highschool. they were friends too, good friends!
Me when the characters in a story start arguing and letting their nasty sides out and i get to see if their relationship can stand it, grow, or if ultimately they break apart. Or maybe even a secret third worse thing.
Remember when a UK bookstore offered visitors the opportunity to vandalize Harry Potter pages for 25 pence? They raised over £4,000 for transgender healthcare! And now they need your support. Emily, co-owner of The Bookish Type, is fundraising for her own gender-affirming surgery that's covered in every Western European country aside from the UK and Ireland. Let's help her like she helped dozens of other trans people access care in an increasingly hostile nation. Support her on GoFundMe here.
