i am doing some research for an essay and am reading an article about richie being gay in IT 2019 and the person writing the article is acting like richie coming out would have no impact on his career whatsoever because he's a comedian in los angeles in 2016... like did we watch the same movie?
like for me personally when i saw richie get up on stage and tell a joke about jerking it to his girlfriends sisters facebook or whatever my first thought wasn't "oh yeah i bet his audience is on their way to a drag show after this" i got a very clear image of a a 35-45 year old white guy who watches fox news and refers to his wife as "the ol' ball and chain" and thinks richie is a hero of comedy because he "isn't giving into the woke liberal mob who doesn't understand what dark humor is". i know this might be shocking but that type doesn't typically like it when their entertainers are queer :0
like... what? i am just very confused. like did we expect richie tozier, guy who grew up in a small town during the AIDS crisis and was tormented by a clown who threatened him with the knowledge that he was a homosexual, and now has a career that relies on a group of people who are largely at least somewhat homophobic, liking him, to be out and proud? did we watch the same film?

LADIES, GENTLEMEN, MONARCHS AND ALL!
I present to you: Holiday Bingo!
Now, if you all remember: I made a poll with two options of team vs and decorate a thingy. The latter one won, and that results in this!
Holiday Window! For every bingo spot that gets filled, I will add a small decor to the window. For every blackout, there will be a big decor added.
Now, you may ask: “What about a bingo?” Well since December is famous for being the busiest month ever, I made the boards 3x3 instead of the regular 5x5 to make it easier to participate.
Speaking of the boards, I have designed four different boards for everyone to do! Here is a preview of them:
The boards with the prompts will be released this Friday, November 24th! Each will be on a separate post, so look out for that!
Now, time to lay out how this works:
Holiday Bingo FAQ and Rules!
Q. How do I participate?
A. When the official bingo cards go up, you can reblog the card you’re gonna use. After that, you just fill out the prompts with either a drawing or writing. Once you are done, post the board you’re using with the prompt you chose crossed off along with what you made for that prompt (edit: please also @ this bling when you cross a prompt)
Q. What if I make a blackout on my bingo board?
A. If you end up getting a blackout but still wanna do more, then grab another bingo board! Ex: If you blackout on Peppermint Lane, you can fill out the prompts on Candle Night. If you blackout on Candle Night, you have two more options. If you get a blackout on all four… what in gods name is fueling you? (/silly)
Q. Do I draw or write?
A. You can either or both!
Q. What if I only do one prompt and can’t do anymore?
A. Completely chill! Everyone has something going on, I ain’t gonna chastise you for only doing one prompt on your bingo board.
Q. Can I do [insert ship name here]?
A. Unfortunately for this event, ships are not going to be allowed this event. I apologize for anyone who is upset at this, but considering this is a more free range event, I want to stay clear of harassment that could possibly happen due to ships.
Q. Can I do [insert tmnt iteration here]?
A. My gay companion, you can do any iteration. You wanna do Bayverse? Fuckin go for it. You wanna do 1987? Hell yeah, you do you. You wanna do IDW? Slay.
Q. Could I use my au for a prompt?
A. Hell yeah you can!
Q. Could I use my oc for a prompt?
A. As long as they’re with any tmnt character, sure!
Q. Is this an angst event or a fluff event?
A. Both. Both is good.
Q. What’s the rule on NSFW?
A. The same it was for the Halloween gift exchange. If you do not want your boss or teacher to see it, do not post it.
Q. Does it have to include a holiday?
A. It does not! If you don’t celebrate any of the holidays in December, you do not have to include those in what you create. On that same note, if you would like to include a holiday, go for it! Whether it be Christmas, Kwanzaa, Chanukah, Yule, or any other holiday in December! Do what you enjoy and will make you happy.
Q. When is the deadline?
A. This event will stay live from November 24th to January 1st. January 1st will be the last day to post any prompts on your bingo board.
Q. Why did you choose a window to decorate?
A. There are some times where I can’t draw for shit, and this is one of those times.
Update: Q. Can I do multiple prompts?
Update: A. Yes, but only two to three prompts
If there are any questions you have for me, feel free to send them my way!
Until then
BOOYAKASHA!!!
