okay so i'm not trying to make this a ~thing~ or a hot take or whatever, but can we talk about how all the hyped up queer shows still predominantly feature mlm couples? i'm not saying there aren't wlw shows/movies or the mlm-focused shows don't also feature wlw characters/couples, just... they either get nowhere near the same amount of hype, have some other main plot, end with at least one of them dying or experiencing something traumatic, get cancelled after one season in the middle of their arc, or they're not the main couple. And that's not to discount the representation you can get from secondary characters of course but just... ugh I want a heartstopper or rwrb or young royals or skam or love, simon or i don't even know... with girls. And I know I'm not the first person to bring this up and I know it's not that simple, but seeing all the hype for heartstopper and rwrb this week makes my heart ache a little bit so i needed to say this somewhere.
Obviously I want Stede and Ed to get married and have a gigantic wedding where the whole crew is invited and both of them cry while reading their vows but ALSO I kinda want Ed to keep calling him and Stede boyfriends at least sometimes forever. "Yeah, I love my boyfriend, we've been married for 10 years, look at this beautiful wedding ring he stole for me 😍"
Tonight I got to celebrate my baby sister and her beautiful future wife at their engagement party. I don't post pics of my family on here for obvious reasons, but you can at least see how good I looked 👀😘
