Goddamn it, it’s back.

If it stays back, I might manage to finish a third story this year. Jesus.

I swear, this is now my only writing motivation.

BACK AGAIN??? Sigh. 

Okay, sorry if anyone gets sick of this, but it’s the best way for me to get myself to write.

it’s back once more… sighs i guess i’ve gotta write will being depressed over his boyfriend dying

the constant attitude that it’s only straight women who are into Heated Rivalry is condescending as fuck and I’m sick of it. People are so scared that a show can be titillating and meaningful. And people don’t act this way about shows that titillate straight men! No one acts like Game of Thrones can be dismissed because of the sex in it. Straight women love HR; queer men, women and others love HR; but god! what will we do without the approval of the Empty Netters?

WOMEN ARE GAY THEYRE AT THE GAY BAR BECAUSE THEYRE GAY

It also suggests that just because women are into it then it should be dismissed. I also feel like when I, a lesbian, bring up that I love Heated Rivalry around any of my straight friends, but especially male friends, they always ask WHY I like it. Or they say something along the lines of, “wow I didn’t expect you to like that shit bc ur not into men.” Lesbians and straight men and straight woman and gay men and whoever the fuck else can enjoy this show and ANY show without being questioned about whether or not they CAN or SHOULD like it. It’s not even a real story, it’s an idea that someone came up with. It’s completely normal for people of all types to enjoy other people’s ideas. We do it literally all the time.

this was inspired btw by the troy barrett line "the last thing hospitalized children needed was to be forced to spend even five seconds with him" like what's wrong with her. that's so funny. i haven't even read role model yet i know nothing about it but that line is just such an rr classic.
