Good Omens is legitimately the first piece of media that’s made me realise that I can actually be a 50+ year old man one day. Like I’ve never really been able to see a future for myself as a trans guy. It felt like this would just be temporary until life forced me to transition back into a woman, or perhaps I didn’t even want to be an old man because I’ve never felt gender envy towards anyone much older than me before, which made me start to question myself. But Good Omens changed that. I’m looking at Aziraphale and Crowley and I want that. I want to be those men, I want to be a 50+ year old man living his life as unashamedly as Crowley does and as comfortably as Aziraphale does. I want to be the 50+ year old goth boyfriend with a cool ass car and Queen records, and the 50+ year old flamboyant southern pansy with a bookshop and a permanent joie de vivre for all of life’s delights. I can finally see myself in 30 years time, which I’ve never allowed myself to do before.

Thank you Good Omens for the representation of older, queer men that I think we all needed tbh. I know I sure did.

TV Executives: “if the strike goes on, you won’t get new episodes of your favorite shows! You won’t get new movies you were looking forward to! Isn’t that terrible, what the writers are doing to you?”

Me: Bitch, that might have been an effective threat in 2007, but we have since survived a Covid shutdown and discovered ways to amuse ourselves while we waited, we can outwait this shit, too. I got a pile of shows saved I haven’t even watched yet, and a Mt. TBR waiting for me.

Compensate (and respect) your writers for their work, assholes.

Do you guys also change part of your behavior around friends that are dating??

Cause I'm always scared that maybe they or their partner will interpret it the wrong way so I just start avoiding doing some things (for example I have a friend that I inevitably spend quite a lot of time with, as we study together, and I always try not to talk a lot with them when we are not in classes cause I really don't want to accidentally make their partner jealous)

“If this hurts my shows I’m gonna riot” “they better not cancel my favorite show” “this is so selfish I NEED this show” “what about my mental health now that they—“

So you agree. Show-writers are important to you and to the industry and should be compensated accordingly for their important work.

I’m super confused.

I’m asexual/sex repulsed and thought I was panromanric for the longest time. I kinda landed on pan because I thought about it and I didn’t really care who my future partner was going to be. I didn’t feel different about anyone, so, pan made sense.

I don’t really think I feel romantic attraction. Aesthetic attraction for sure, but I don’t think romantic. I’ve dated before, but I never felt any different than a friend would. I basically just acted like close friends. I didn’t like to kiss and I don’t like sex at all, so it didn’t feel any different and I didn’t think of partners as anything “more special”. None of that butterflies and whatnot either. Just.. a friend who liked to be close to me.

However, I want someone. I want to have someone to live with and be happy and close with. But I realized more and more that I’d likely enjoy living with friends more than a partner. Maybe a qpr type thing. However I don’t know how I’m ever going to get something like that, y’know?

I mean. I don’t know. Maybe I’m not aro in any way and I’m just scared that love won’t work out for me. I’ve never really been around any healthy relationships, and I tend to sabotage myself because I don’t know what “healthy” really looks like until it’s so clearly unhealthy that it’s broken.

but I want something. I don’t want to be alone forever. I don’t know what that means for me though because if I am aro in some way, how will I ever find someone who will wanna stay with me long term as a friend.

I love this sentiment because it’s so easy to explain.
