So, I'm about ninety percent fandom in my day to day life. And obviously my blog reflects that. My one true fandom is Supernatural but I also dabble in How To Get Away With Murder, Marvel, and Harry Potter to name a few.
I'm twenty-seven years old, cis-female, panromantic demisexual, and very friendly so I'd be happy to talk to anyone who wants to message me.
HOT TAKE: Julie and the Phantoms s1e7 contained one of the best scenes with natural gay rep and non-toxic masculinity I've seen so far on tv
i KNOW this scene was solely for entertaining purposes but it was a PERFECT example of gay(/bi)/straight solidarity & non-toxic masculinity content bc;
alex being visibly and audibly upset bc of his crush willie and luke and reggie comforting him
then reggie asking luke abt his crush on julie and their cHeMistRy
sudden BIG sexual tension between these two guys who are presumed to be straight(/bi??)
reggie calling luke hot w/o the awkward 'no homo tho' bs
THAT HAND KISS THING FROM LUKE I-
reggie playing off his nerves with a comment abt girls but not bc of his fragile masculinity, rather bc of the (again HEAVILY IMPLIED SEXUAL) tension between him and luke and he has no idea how to react to luke being THAT intense (excellent bi icon but that's just my opinion )
all three of them just being super chill and wholesome the entire time, making both gay and straight people feel comfortable watching it (which doesn't happen that often on tv bc of bad gay rep and really toxic masculinity)
luke reacting to reggie's 'girls ammi right' with a cool 'yeah' and alex with a just as cool 'no'
and alex being just so comfortable w his sexuality around the guys, he doesn't feel the need to hide or silence it and the guys don't think he's 'cringy' or 'creepy'
We run an inconvenience store. It’s not the worst job in the world.
Like the Alanis Morissette song, I tell people. They normally wander in with their mouths hanging down around their knees, sometimes brandishing pepper spray. Rain on your wedding day. Spoons when you just need a knife. Most of these things aren’t real irony, they’re just annoying coincidences. Inconveniences. That’s what we sell here!
Usually the sales pitch generates more skepticism, or the occasional gasp of delight. One guy stuck his meaty finger in my face and yelled, Are you threatening me? but then, that’s retail.
It’s not the sort of place that gets repeat customers so I spend most of my days keeping track of the inventory, or playing Pokémon Go. I don’t know what it is about the area but it’s a straight up hot spot for shinies. Read a book. Paint your nails. It’s a bit like being a security guard except you’re protecting people from the place rather than the place from the people. Inconveniences can turn into tragedies real fast, so you’ve got to make sure customers know exactly what they’re buying. Liability waivers and all that. Like, I had this one kid who came in off the highway—they all come in off highways—who accused me of being a shroom hallucination until I shot a rubber band in his face.
