business! did u see the mcc teams? no prime boys (ive gone dark) but beeduo and dreamnap! also queer team aka scott, one of his husbands (wisp), antfrost, and 5up! tommy is teamed with dad, funds, and conar

- mr scandalous

okay so i was so ready to answer this yesterday but people showed up at my house right as i was about to so i’m getting to it now! i’m just gonna use this to get a lot of my mcc thoughts out

one day we’ll get those primeboys. one day. but like omg this red rabbits team is so cool? like dreamnap is an op duo but also with quackity and michael they’re gonna be so fun!!

bee duo is obviously so freaking exciting! the only reason i’m hesitant to root for the pink parrots is that god himself seems to be working against wilbur soot especially during mccs. i’d be so pleased if this team won though

i think i heard a while ago that 5up was on the mcc waitlist but completely forgot about it until now, but super super cool that he’s in the event now along with ant. wisp i of course adore with every bone in my body and there’ll be a lot of flirty banter on this team with him and scott. i wouldn’t put them super high on rankings just because of the new completely new players, but they’ll for sure be a good time.

i’m so fucking excited for the green guardians. like unimaginably excited. tommy and connor is such a nice duo to watch work together. i remember the mcu they did together and they were so good as a duo even if they didn’t place high in the event. i actually think these guys have such a good shot at winning, fundy, phil, and tommy are all super super good players, like top ten, high a tiers all of them. connor has only been in one mcc, because of pete having to drop and the fact that he was teamed with james charles, im not gonna really say that his performance there is indicative of how he’ll perform in this mcc though. and anyways, quackity was completely new to the event in mcc11 when he was with tommy, fundy, and wilbur and they were nearly in dodgebolt. so super high potential for this team, they’re not only solid but very good in every aspect of this tournament except i’d say possibly buildmart where morale might go down, but even that would hardly damage them overall. not to have an obvious favorite team, but i could talk about these guys forever.

orange ocelots is a super strong team i can already see getting overlooked. any team with pete on it is a strong team, and he and grian’s mcc13 team got 2nd and their mcc14 team got 3rd, i can for sure see these guys in the top three.

yellow yaks is another super strong team. i’m very excited to see the dynamic, punz, the captain, jack manifold, and cpk is not a combination that would ever come to me, but i’m interested to see it. punz is a really good player especially in pvp and that’s where callum’s strength is as well i’d say. maybe that and the sheer power of jack manifold will get the captain his first win?

i don’t wanna underestimate the lime llamas either. obviously mr. gaming is on fire as of late, copping a win in the last canon mcc. oli’s been improving in these last few mccs, his individual coins have gone way up from where they were back when he stopped at mcc6. fruitberries is obviously fruitberries. kara’s a solid teammate and very experienced. they just don’t jump out to me as a top three just because all the other teams are also insanely strong, but they’ll definitely perform well.

i just look at aqua and think “good team.” i wake up to krtzyy notifs that are always “doing some mcc practice,” he and krinios are a tier players. they’re friends with puffy and i think everyone on this team will work super well together. very excited about the puffychu duo on this team and im super happy that niki is feeling good about competing again, especially after she did so well in mcc14.

okay so the only things i know about prestonplayz is that my ten year old cousin watches him and he missed the other mcc he was supposed to be in because of a wedding. he did win an mcm week though i do vaguely remember that. anyways, he seems like a lovely guy, happy he’s finally able to play. fwhip and joel are both like around the top 20 range, i’d put them 25 at the lowest. quig is as always an amazing individual player.

purple pandas kinda insane? illumina’s just coming off his pride win and is always an amazing player. ren and false are both very solid and a good duo. the chemistry and communication on this team will be really great, i believe 3/4 of this team all know each other and i can’t imagine illumina having trouble getting along with them. he’s a great leader and i think they’re gonna be really good

#long post #guys #im so excited for this mcc

so ive been going around to all my friends in the pride community telling them that the all canadian politics discord banned me over asking why they decided to censor Queer so im asking all these ppl, who are mostly around my age let’s be fair, what they thought about getting rid of the Q and they were all scandalized and outraged that some canadian kids are trying to censor Queer out of the community asking if they even know anything about queer history and saying they should be ashamed lmao so then i was like how can this be is there still doubt? well maybe its just my generation? so i started going around all my actual pride servers on discord including Gay Geeks, Girl Gamers, Special Circumstances, among many others and even a Clack server just for fun and asked them all how they feel about the Q in LGBTQIA2+ being taken out and none of them said they’d ever censor or ban it and that it wasn’t a slur since it was reclaimed so im like wow haha so relieved it isn’t actually an issue in any real community again i’d never use a word in person with someone who told me it was triggering for them, any word, supposed slur or not, nor would i go around calling someone queer who didn’t tell me they identified with it, im even comfortable replacing it with other terms like proud and all that is fine in conversation but you can’t go around in public spaces policing an entire identity just to make yourself more comfortable just because queer was used against you and you hate it for any reason now doesn’t mean you can take it away from the community and the progress we’ve made together so let me give an example im not a lesbian but ive been called a lesbian or the d word or the g word (in french) as an insult many many many times as a teen and adult, except you’d never see me try to police lesbians by telling them they should drop any of those ids and call themselves only homosexuals because it could be offensive to people with trauma from it im sorry to be so direct, but calling me cruel isn’t going to change the fact that if you’re part of the pride community, any part of it, odds are you’ve been bullied if not traumatized simply by people’s prejudice and malintent if not their words and actions, and we all have to live with our experiences but the idea behind the Queer community at its base was unity and the idea that things will get better if we work together instead of tear each other down that sense of community and pride, you can’t take that away from anyone who’s ever chosen to id as Queer i still don’t quite get how supposedly safe spaces can go so far as to censor a wholeass identity within an established community but I guess that’s just me, and all my friends, and all these other “non-hets” from tumblr and other servers eh like literally everyone except these 3 nerds so then one of my friends finally said something that stuck they’re the extreme left so obsessed with enforcing political correctness and protecting their asses in a cdnpoli server that they can’t distinguish when they’re invalidating actual people

so since the beginning of this year especially quarantine ive embraced my sexuality alot more than i ever have. especially when the aces dropped kelly for pride and it was the first openly queer wlw song i could relate to. in terms of embracing my sexuality ive felt like a flower throughout quarantine because ive had time to think and pick at my thoughts. i actually understand what loud and proud means and i understand why sexuality can be so emotional. Ive began to understand why people come out. I used to think it wasn’t necessary for me to come out. It’s not going to affect anyone else but me so why do others need to know. Then I started to realize how much I actually censor myself. I’ve realized how nerve wracking coming out can be. So many times i’ve wanted to blurt out i’m bisexual but I don’t. I’ve seen the body language my dad gives off when i’m listening to queer artists sing about relationships. I’ve heard my mom say people have too much time on their hands when lgbtq+ problems are talked about in depth and when there’s lgbtq+ representation in the media. I’ve heard my parents say homophobic things and make homophobic jokes. Even thought i’ve made up my mind that If someone around me is homophobic -and they make no changes for the better- then I don’t need them in my life, I don’t think i’d be able to handle it if my immediate family shut me out because i’m bi. Specifically when I was like 12 I was geeking about demi lovato and my sister said “omg are you lesbian or something?” and i said “eww no i like boys” then I started to question myself. My mom must’ve heard us bc a few days later she was sitting at the dinner table telling us how it’s okay if either of us like girls and people are born gay. She gave the little speech looking me directly in my eyes and I swore she knew what I was thinking. I just pushed the thought of liking girls to the back of my mind because it felt weird to me and I had no way to describe my feelings. Then in eight grade a new girl came to our class and i was the one that had to show her around and we clicked instantly. I always gravitated towards her because she was so bubbly. The way she made me feel was the same why they boy i had a crush on at the time made me feel. But i just thought that’s what good friendships felt like. I remember she moved a bit before high school started and wre still taking. She came out to me, she was worried I would be mad and not want to be friends anymore. First off my heart broke, how could someone be mad at you for loving someone??? Second she helped me realized there was a word for the way I was feeling. Then a bit after that I realized how the way I felt around her was a crush and maybe I was bi too. It kinda crossed my mind here and there through high school. Then when I was 16 I got into Halsey and seeing her open about her sexuality helped me realize my feelings for girls weren’t weird at all. It still gets me sometimes that i’ve never been in a relationship and I question whether or not i’m bi because of it. Things take time for people and it took time for me to realize my feelings and realize my feelings are valid. Like broooo i’m bisexual and i’m sooooooo fucking proud.

#very personal #bisexual #sorry for the rant #but i need to let this out somewhere #sometimes i feel like i could explode lmao #t’s thoughts

every year around pride i ask myself when or if im gonna come out to my parents.

bc on the one hand im like “i dont owe you my coming out”. i might be very vocal online, but in real life me being queer isnt really that important? like its not anywhere close to the most important thing about me, it doesnt define me, it doesnt define my character or personality, its just one thing. i dont have to come out, my being queer isnt relevant other than in a romantic or sexual context. which i really really like to avoid. so its fair to say its almost never relevant.

i can count on two hands the people ive actually come out to irl (ive tried to explain it to like one or two people without actually saying the words, but it doesnt count bc they didnt understand what i meant) and that was always something like a courtesy or like a way of me showing trust bc were friends. the majority of them had already kind of known before i explicitly said it. so on the one hand im like “nobody needs to know this about me until it becomes relevant and thats perfectly fine”

but on the other hand (and i know this is very stupid) i question my own validity if im not out to everyone i know. its not like im in the closet, i have never been in the closet. i have never once in my life claimed i was straight. never. i have, however, denied being gay/lesbian, which means i have always been truthful and never lied about myself, but the fact remains that many people dont know enough about bisexuality to even consider it a possibility. so i can tell myself i have never denied myself when i deny being a lesbian, but the truth is people who are asking “are you a lesbian” arent JUST asking that, bc in reality theyre actually asking “are you not straight?” and me saying no, while true, also is a lie when seen in that context.

my mother has asked me twice if im a lesbian. once a few years ago when i was being very vocal about gay rights and once just an hour ago. i have said no both times and that ended the conversation. i was being entirely truthful, but i also felt like i was shutting the door on a conversation and it might never open up again.

im fine with not being out to my parents most of the time. my parents are casually homophobic in the way most people are, theyre not deliberately homophobic and if they knew i was queer they wouldnt be cruel and they wouldnt do anything to hurt me, but it would absolutely be very awkward for some time and it would open up so many “why didnt you ever tell me?? dont you trust me?? this hurts MY feelings” conversations, which im not willing to have.

but every once in a while they will drop something homophobic or theyll just say anything about lgbt people in general and im just dying to go “my opinion on this is more relevant than yours bc its something that can actually affect me, but not you”.

my parents have been joking for a long time that i should make the moves on my ex-boss’ son bc hes super rich and will inherit his whole business ans all (theyre friends with my ex boss, we know them personally) and last week my mother talked about how its actually his daughter who is going to inherit the business and my dad just went completely deadpan “so how do you feel about her?”

like it was a joke, but without the homophobic aftertaste of it being absolutely ridiculous. he joked about it the exact same way he was joking about me dating the son. and i was so fucking thrown for the rest of the day (i still am and that happened last week).

(funny thing: i dont actually know if im out to my sister or not. i got absolutely shitfaced about 2 years ago and i cant remember most of the evening, but i have this nagging feeling i did, but we havent talked about it since sooo.... my sister HAS become veeery supportive of lgbt people in the last few years though... so idk)

so yeah.
