I’m starting to hate that podcasts, movies, and books are being marketed specifically as arguments. Calls to arms. “If you think we ruffled some feathers last year, watch out! This year we’re really going to bury the [woke/liberal/conservative/bigoted/pearl-clutchers/misogynists/feminists] and roll on their graves! If you think casting a [insert the definition of a person by their outward appearance/native country/gender/orientation/religion] in this role was groundbreaking, wait till you see what we’ve got next! Get ready to see [insert hot-button words like “a strong female role model” or “what a real man looks like”]
Stop making “aggressive punk-rock idealogical powerhouse” your marketing identity. Just be genuine.
Stop saying “HERE’S WHAT WE HATE! HERE’S WHAT WE’RE AGAINST!” and just say what is true. When you actually believe something is true, and believe that truth stands on its own, and needs no help, then you can shine a spotlight on it genuinely, lovingly, without all the bluster and insecurity of false confidence and making “coolly mocking the other side” your whole persona.
Don’t say “here’s what THEY’RE doing that’s so wrong.” Say, “look how great this true thing is.” Anything else is a vanity project. You’re making your podcast/movie/book about how you’re the best voice for a specific audience, and you know how we can tell you’re not genuine? Because you don’t actually talk about what makes truth good. You talk about what makes liars disgusting, and then applaud yourself for being the one to say it. It’s all about you. It’s not about the actual values you align yourself with.

I was talking to someone about Loveless the other day and they were going on about how 'sad it was' and whilst I get it's not a happy book etc, it's not really supposed to be sad in that way. It's supposed to be a book about accepting who you are, and learning that's its okay to be who you are, and aro ace people shouldn't be excluded from that
What is sad is that I forget how many people still view aro and/or ace people + anyone on the spectrum as 'broken' or as 'missing something' or 'lonely' or 'depressed'. Like we are NOT broken for god sake and my depression is definitely not from being ace. I'm not saying it's easy but I hate how we are often stereotyped

I think what I love most about Alice’s books is that, the conflicts are more real, like, there isn’t necessarily anyone that’s fully ‘in the wrong’ just human beings making mistakes and hurting people they love, and yeah, some characters are in fact evil (you all know who I’m talking about) but that’s also part of the human experience, sometimes being selfish is just part of who we are (also I think not depending solely on miscommunication just shows how great of a writer they are)

Ever since heartstopper entered and changed my life, I dream of decorating my room with everything related to osemanverse. Posters, novels, lgbt flags, quotes from osemanverse on the walls. I have HS 1, Loveless(my favorite) and Radio Silence. Yeah, Alice really helped me with to feel positive about my sexuality.
Sadly my parents are homophobic, and my mom knows my sexuality and hates me.
