crowning achievement this evening is passing out in a pub from sensory overload
'did I upset you by talking about your mum?' no, sorry it was simply Too Loud and Too Hot, with Too Many People and my soul left my body

there's this...thing...that happens to me a non zero amount lately where like I will say something along the lines of, "I think X would be a reasonable expectation, I would certainly never consider doing less than that for someone"
and someone will respond to me like "yes but you're a special case" and like. make a thing about how I'm Unusually Nice or Unusually Thoughtful and generally Unusual.
and idk that pisses me off a bit and I don't know how fair that is. to me it feels like an abdication of responsibility. to be like, 'well YOU would do the nice thing but that's because you're a Special Kind Of Person, nobody ELSE should be expected to do the nice thing'
yes they should!!!!! if we agree it's the decent thing to do to eg stop and take a breath and think about the other person's perspective!!!! I'm not a Special Super Nice Guy for thinking about what other people need or where they're coming from!!!!! I'm literally just a Guy and You Can Too!!!!!!

Currently thinking about how for nearly all Dreamling meetings, Hob's always the one watching Dream leave him.
In 1389, he watches Dream walk away from their table. In 1489, he again watches Dream leave while saying that he never told Hob his name. In 1589, he bitterly watches Dream leave with Shakespeare. We don't see the end of the 1689 meeting, but there's a pattern here, so. In the 1789 meeting, Hob again watches Dream leave and he literally never looks away from him- the scene ends with Hob still watching Dream leave after their confrontation with Constantine, he never turns his head from him. And then of course the 1889 meeting, which again...ENDS WITH HOB CHASING AFTER DREAM AND WATCHING HIM LEAVE IN THE RAIN
friends I am having thoughts

A very minor, minor thing but it’s extremely funny to me in modern lit when we’re supposed to feel sorry for the celebrities/kids of presidents/the kids of the rich/royals/literal emperors because they get bullied for being gay or bi or dykes or whatever. It’s like….you’re literally among the most powerful people on Earth, stop feeing sorry for yourself. Especially when the “people being mean to me” thing is solely online.

you click on the wrong video and end up not on an analysis of the queer history of doctor who, but on someone going on a rant about how doctor who has never been queer and to shove it in now while pretending it always has been is "gaslighting" and "narcissistic" and it's not homophobic to not want doctor who, the show, to be overtly gay, because none of its fans want that
and this is why - quite apart from anything else - we take the terms gaslighting an narcissist and put it on a shelf and then go wash off the grime of that corner of youtube
but also this is why it's being so overt -- it's not to convince queer fans and just... chill fans... who already saw the queer subtext (and uh... text) -- it's to hammer it home to people who will be turned away by it, and also I guess, simply to say, "we're overt now, that's the kind of show we are"
it's not deep but for the part where anything queer text is always pulled apart, and so might as well not beat around the bush. just fuckn. is the doctor gay now? sure. to anyone who didn't already know
