why is eighth grade rated r that was the most relatable movie abt being a teen I'd ever seen. like.. teens should be able to watch this
#smudgy.txt#sorry i was just thinking abt this movie again & its like.#lots of ppls teen years are shit & so confusing & everyones always denying everything u say bc ur a teen#& for some reason everyones got it in their head that teens arent worth listening to or even treating as human#& having someone who Gets It is like. invaluable#from what i remember this movie is so awkward & theres so much secondhand embarrassment but#thats literally what being a teen was for me#& i feel like if i had this movie when i was 14 i wouldve been obsessed w it lmao#like just. ignoring who the director is#OR not actually bc while so much of his work is so typical Cishet While Comedian i feel like hes had a lot of valuable shit to say in his#more serious stuff#just his work that explores anxiety & depression meant a lot to me as a teen dealing w that stuff & constantly being told my#problems were nothing & that i should keep them to myself#i don't think hes funny (& i think mainstream standup as a whole is just. eugh.) but ill always value having that feeling of being seen#anyway where was i.#ok i was looking at commonsense media for the movies rating & i read the reviews on the front page#& this is just typical commonsense media bullshit but the parents were writing that this movie isnt for kids (young teens specifically)#bc the teens in the movie talked abt s3x. like.#one of them said that kids dont talk abt s3x. LIKE??????#sorry. my siblings n i used to go on that website for the comedy of White Suburban Parent Panic & im still flabbergasted to this day#anyway the overall consensus seemed to be that the movie was good for kids 14+ bc it was so realistic#& encouraged talkjng w ur kids abt if it feels relatable to them/why & if they could see the mc as a role model for her bravery#so at least whoever put the movie up had some common sense. media. hehe#*oh wait ig its not#main consensus then itd be whoever added it#ANYWAY. break over i gotta continue cleaning

simpbur headcanon dump ♡
a bunch of random headcanons for simpbur that i thought of !! (all under the cut because there is a lot...)
Tumblr media
his birthday is december 11 and his height is 5'4 (this is actually canon but im including it anyways)
he goes by he/they/she (in order of preference). he's genderfluid, but more masc aligned. he is also bisexual and horribly closeted (the closet is as clear as glass)
he is neurodivergent, he also suffers from lots of anxiety. he is very anti-social
he and liliana (the e-girl) were both just not great for each other. it was not just simp being toxic to the e girl, but she was toxic to him as well to a certain extent. she isnt a bad person, and neither was simpbur, they were just a pair that wouldnt work out
part of the reason why simpbur is so insecure abt himself is bc liliana tends to be a judgemental person. she has standards that simp didnt meet, and that made him go into the mindset of changing himself to suit what she liked. however, this failed and they ended up breaking things off instead
his breakup with liliana destroyed simpbur's mental health, especially with him being a very fragile person to begin with. this is where his obsession began due to still having a very strong attachment with what he once had with her, along with having extreme jealousy over the thought of her being successful in life with someone other than him
his favorite vape flavor is bubblegum. he would smoke cigarettes, but he doesn't like the smell, and he just prefers vapes
he is horrible with being responsible with his money. even though he struggles to pay rent and works a minimum wage job, he usually spends his money on games and anime stuff
types with stuff like uwu, owo, :3, :<, XD, ^_^, (*≧з≦), etc.
used to live with his mom, but now he lives in a tiny apartment on his own. it's not very well kept or clean, and he often just throws his junk around everywhere since he never has the energy to clean the place up. the only place he bothers (kinda) decorating is his bedroom
cries over small things easily, like when he gets a paper cut, stubs his toe, when his food order is wrong, etc.
can't handle spicy foods whatsoever
he has a shoe box full of random stuff he stole from liliana, such as pens she used, her clothes, trash, hair, etc.
kicks ass at competitive games, such as first person shooter games. he is a chronically online gamer and he lowkey acts toxic sometimes while gaming
he sometimes just goes "gg :3" in the chat whenever he manages to dominate the game. he doesnt like using vc bc he doesnt really like his voice, so he usually sticks to typing, esp bc hes a pretty fast typer (100+ wpm)
he collects a ton of anime figures. usually leaves things in their packaging. he cringed whenever liliana took them out of the packaging, since she didn't understand why he left them in the box instead of taking them out
he blasts music at full volume, especially while gaming. he listens to a lot of vocaloid, breakcore, krushclub, hyperpop, indie rock, etc.
his diet consists of fast food, take out, ramen, microwaved food, soda, snacks, anything that's unhealthy
he usually hides his figure with thick, oversized clothing
he doesn't usually express his style much outside in public, but he likes experimenting a lot with outfits at home, especially ones that aren't typically masculine
he's secretly a furry and has a fursona. he usually acts as if he thinks furries or cringe, but he would have anon alt accounts where he'd look at furries online and talk about how cute they are
his feelings towards his body changes depending on his mood. although he doesn't completely mind being assigned amab, he does wish he looked more feminine, or at the very least androgynous
at a certain point in his life, he denied his femininity and attempted to retain a super masculine appearance and personality. it didn't make him happy, instead it made him more insecure
coming to terms with being not cishet was extremely difficult. he was in denial that he was bisexual, and even more in denial he wasn't a cisgender man. altho he's grown to slowly be more comfortable with his identity, he's still struggling to accept himself
he switches from being masculine and feminine a lot. other times he simply just does not want to be perceived and would avoid people
he loves the idea of romance and intimacy, but the actual act of doing romantic/intimate things freaks him out. he craves for love, but he's terrified to act on it, especially with his last relationship with liliana failing
he posts rants/vents about his thoughts anonymously online on places like reddit
he grew to be good at stalking, even learning strategies to keep himself hidden or quiet, along with learning how to unlock windows or doors. he thought he was insane for doing it at first, but he's grown more used to it being a routine
his eyes are actually dark brown. i just draw them pink because it's just an artistic choice i like in his design
he has sharp canine teeth
he says "im gonna kms :3" and makes all kinds of self-deprecating jokes very often
he often writes random songs in his diary and sings to himself/plays guitar in his room. it's very comforting for him, as its a form of coping
even tho he dislikes his voice, he's very good at singing (insert the entirety of the e-girl trilogy here)
if i ever come up with more headcanons i will make another post as a part 2 !! this guy is constantly living rent free in my mind 24/7 i am so perfectly sane about simpbur i swear. completely. 100%. *eye twitching*

I haven't seen this done and it might be too niche, but I don't care and I want to do it so I am.
Burlesque Ask Game!
What's your stage name? What does it mean?
Lizzie Blaze. My middle name is Elizabeth and my partner's stage name ends with Blaze as well (based on his native name, Blazing Path) so I stole it lmao.
When did you make your debut?
October of 2019! I can't believe I'm headed up on five years doing this :')
Why do you do it?
For the rush, honestly. I grew up loving burlesque and old school pin up and always wanted to try it. It's such a heady, powerful feeling to command a stage. Also for all the shy girls who come up to me after my shows!! They're the best and like my reason to live!!!
Do you ever get stage fright?
I do! Nearly five years in and I still wonder what the fuck I'm doing every time I get on stage.
What's your pre-show ritual?
Panic, run through everything in my head, overthink, and if my sweet angel of a con bestie is there, get fed drinks 😭
First routine?
This is so fucking basic and everyone does this, but Jessica Rabbit 🥲
Last routine?
The last one I did was Miss Frizzle to Hot For Teacher. I loved it, the audience loved it, but my partner did not and kinda got upset with me over it (I went too far, in his opinion. He's a cishet man, so we've grappled with jealousy and internalized toxic masculinity. We both prefer I perform to a queer audience bc he's okay with me interacting with women and I prefer that anyway, but it's not always possible. We've worked it out though). Had a mini crisis and took a brief hiatus after that, but I'm back in it now.
Favorite routine?
That's such a toss up! I think either my Vegas showgirl inspired Vulpix routine to a custom mix of Bumps & Grinds by Sonny Lester and Fast Girls by Atom Smith, or my gay ass Daphne Blake routine to Crimson and Clover by Joan Jett (featuring Velma's sweater).
Dream routine?
God what I wouldn't give you have a femme partner to do gay routines with. I would LOVE to do a Loki and Mobius to Casual Affair by P!atD (I already have it choreographed) or a deeply dramatic and skillful Freddy and Nancy routine to the VCTRYS cover of Come To My Window. I also want to do a badass showgirl Oogie Boogie with a burlap blacklight costume that has a big ass bustle, break away corset with bugs, snake eye dice pasties, and a fuck all huge witch hat that has a roulette table underneath.
Favorite costume?
Definitely my Vulpix. I've already said it so much but it's just so showgirl! It's a gold corset, puff sleeve wrap top, open front bustle skirt, boa "tail", gold gloves, black stockings, red garter, and red strappy lingerie. After the aforementioned crisis though, I threw half of it away and I hate myself for it
Favorite prop?
I don't typically use props, but we have this magic act cane that like pops out (I'm so bad at explaining things jfc) that's super fun
Favorite reveal?
When I did a Grinch routine a while back, I had a pair of panties that said "I kissed Santa" 😈
Plain pasties or tassels?
I am not skilled with tassels 🥲
Upbeat or slow burn?
Usually I go for upbeat! But I do love a good slow burn sometimes
What's your style?
Definitely neo-burlesque, because I primarily do cosplay burlesque. But I love adding classic influence with big band jazz and sparkly outfits and classic inspired moves
Do you still/did you ever kitten?
I actually skipped that step in my burlesque journey? But I host and produce now, so I'll happily jump up and kitten for my cast whenever needed
Inspirations?
I really love Lavendelle, Ginger Valentine, and the Les Vixens troupe!
Best performer you know personally?
Her name is Peachy Sweets and she's the biggest sweetheart and worthy of so much love, she's just the best 🥲💖
Do you have a stage mom? Are you a stage mom?
I don't have one, but I've dragged so many people into my world and now I love playing stage mom behind the scenes!
Plug your next show! (If you're comfy sharing location based details)
I don't have specifics for the next one yet, but I run the burlesque shows at my local comic con and can always be found there!

@saddestlittlebaby-intheroom​
First off: thank you for replying. I apologize if I came off unnecessarily harsh, but frankly, I didn’t really think you were gonna be interested in talking--I mostly made that reblog for anyone else in the be m/ore chill tag who saw your post and checked the notes.
I don’t know if I’ll reply in depth anymore after this. This post is long, and took a lot out of me.
While, yeah, most people who headcannon it are trans, as someone who’s bi, the treatment of how being bi is Jeremy’s only personality trait kinda annoys me.
... well, I mean. If these are queer people, specifically queer kids, hyperfocusing on his queerness and making their content all about his queerness... maybe there’s a valid reason?
Fandom, specifically, is one of the first avenues kids today get to explore being aaaaanything but cishet. When a part of you so fucking massive that it DOES, actually, radically change your personality, gets pushed down and oppressed, you’re gonna wanna fixate on it when you get the chance to try--at least, a lot of people will. Maybe not you, and that’s fine. 
But I implore you: rethink your takeaway. Your OP directly shames the people doing this, and makes it sound like the people who do it must not truly understand transness--and considering that, again, the majority are trans, that is actively harmful. That’s my biggest issue.
(and... yes. I am using queer as an umbrella term. Queer is used as not only a community term, but an academic one, so if you’re not okay with being called queer, just tell me and I won’t refer to you as such... but I will still use it.)
I totally understand where you’re coming from, and I’m not trying to say that GNC trans men don’t exist, but it’s the way people portray them as basically just being soft trans bois with no other personality outside of being trans that annoys me. It’s not even just that, I feel the fandom basics reduces down any character to just their sexuality or their gender, and as someone who’s bi, it kinda pisses me off that people just state that such and such a character is gay, bi or trans, and then everything just becomes about that. People are more then their sexuality or gender, this is LITERALLY what the LGBT community has been fighting for for years, and now the newer generation wants to just snatch being gay or being trans as a quirky personality. 
That’s... not what we’ve been fighting for, actually. 
I’m not going to get as in depth with this as others could bc I don’t have the spoons to write up an entire essay on the problems with what you said, but, I mean, for one thing, we’ve been fighting for the right to exist. Not to prove we’re “more then our identities”--that’s not the point at all. Our identities are fine. We need to be allowed to be the people we are, and if you truly believe in a “live and let live” philosophy, you cannot shame people for prioritizing a massive part of their live experience. Being queer changes everything. It is NOT the newer generation that suddenly decided to change this; things like found families, queer communes, whole bubbles of ‘safe spaces’ hidden away from society were all the fucking rage waaaaaay before the internet came around. 
Just because what used to be hidden out of sight is now finally reaching the public at large doesn’t mean these concepts are somehow fuckin invalid.
I kinda wished I actually touched on that as well about how Jeremy and Michael are always just sad boys who cry a lot. That annoys me as well because the rest of their personalities is thrown completely out the window, just so they could cry a lot for no real reason. And as someone who literally can’t get through a day without crying, I just wanna say it’s not cute. It’s actually really fucking annoying, both for myself and everyone else.
So much of fandom is used as venting. These sad boy portrayals--why do you think they exist? Do you think the majority of the fans are romanticizing depression? Because, personally, again, I think you’re talking down to people who are literally going off their own life experiences and their own mental illness. No. Real life crying isn’t cute. Good thing this is fandom, where making characters suffer is a GREAT way to work through shit, which is the case for most of the kids who might see your post.
When I talk about ‘kink material’, I mean the whole idea of being trans has become a kink to a certain group of people. It lessens the idea that being trans is actually an important issue, just for some soft angst then can be cured with a few kisses and snuggles. So, not exactly a kink in the typical sense, but more that, again, being trans is an idea that’s meant to be ‘soft and cute’. 
‘a certain group of people‘ ... ‘just for some soft angst then can be cured with a few kisses and snuggles’
I’m guessing you’re truscum. I sorta was too, in high school. I’m not touching that specifically because it is a whole other can of worms, but I wanted to point out something.
We established most of the people talking about trans headcanons are, well, trans. Right? Okay.
So why do you think trans people somehow don’t know the harsh realities of being trans?
This is, again, fiction. Why would you assume they just don’t get it, and why are you bothered by people glossing over whatever they don’t care to talk about in fandom, where you don’t have to talk about whatever you don’t like.
The exact idea of my post was that trans people aren’t supposed to be infantilized?????
Yeah. The problem is that you were, in fact, infantalizing people.
I never stated to talk for everyone, let alone the trans community, just in my experience, the trans people I’ve talked to have been extremely uncomfortable with the portrayals specifically trans Michael and Jeremy. 
Except we are talking about trans people overwhelmingly making these headcanons. Which means the people you talk to would be outliers. But more then that... I’m sorry, but their discomfort isn’t important. Block people, block tags, move on.
I’m not saying you’re not allowed to have your portrayal, just that people kinda need to make sure that it’s not everyone’s cup of tea. 
That is 100% fine. I agree.
And no, don’t worry, I’m not going to go around attacking people for how they portray a certain character. Yeah, maybe I’ll make a post about it or whatever, but I’m not going to go around personally attacking people by tagging them in posts, commenting on their posts, direct messages, etc. 
That’s good. But I am quite bothered by you making this post on the main fandom tag, tagged a couple of different things, and made it so people would see your post. Just... if you’re gonna make a post like that, please ease up on the implications that the people who disagree with you are badly treating their own identities 
But if people are allowed to make trans Jeremy and Michael, or even just cis Jeremy and Michael, extremely soft, then I’m allowed to speak against it.
You’re allowed to discuss it, yes. I certainly don’t like some portrayals, and I’ve talked about them before, in the tag in fact. But you went way beyond discussion and into active, negative judgment of people. If you’re going to do that (trust me, I’ve had to vent some things before), please DON’T put it in the main tag, at the very least.
YKINMK.
