Adam Parrish Losing Control Of His Hands And Eyes When The Demon Infects Cabeswater But Set To The Tune

I feel as though this shouldn’t speak to me on the level that it does… I think I am unwell… 

“Run into a cave and break your ankle so that people have to come find you and they see you lying at the bottom of this beautiful cave and maybe there’s a waterfall and the light from the crystals makes you look really beautiful and they say “Are you okay?” and you say “I think so” and they say “oh my God have you been here alone this whole time with a broken ankle” and you say “it’s okay” and they say “you’re so brave” and you are brave and you look so beautiful surrounded by cave crystals and everyone stands over you and says “oh wow” and “you poor beautiful thing” and “I’m so sorry we let you run into the cave but I’m so glad we found you” and let them carry you home and promise to be your best friends forever and that everything’s their fault and also they named the cave after you and you’re prettier than all of your enemies and your enemies all died of jealousy while you were in the cave.”

— Daniel M. Lavery, How To Respond To Criticism (via boringoldraphael)

If y’all wanna know the true power of hate, just remember that Alan Turing, the breaker of the enigma code in WWII, was driven to suicide by being forced to undergo chemical castration as a punishment for his homosexuality.

Historians say he saved 14 to 21 million lives.

I’d also like to say in the time we studied WWII in school, the history textbooks never mentioned him. I had never heard of the guy until I watched “The Imitation Game” which I 110% recommend you watch if you haven’t.Alan Turing was a blessing to humanity who saved (once again) 14 to 21 million lives, and he is left out of history because he was gay.

And this is just one example?? So many brilliant and heroic people are left out of history because of their race, their gender, their sexuality, their religion, and it’s just because some bigots in positions of influence get to decide what parts of history are remembered.

So many people wish they were the main character. Not me. I’m the side character and I couldn’t be happier. Sure, people like the main character, but not as much as you fucking adore the quirky, sarcastic side characters. In this essay I will

does anyone else absolutely lose their shit over “how long” from Hadestown or is that just me

you have no idea I love her so much

My friend just returned my copy of If We Were Villains today and I am seriously fighting the urge to reread it

I can’t tell if the stain on my hands is paint or blood and honestly that’s very in character for me

being gay isn’t a choice. one day you just hear tender, emotional music start playing.

Happy Pride Month🏳️‍🌈

This is technically my first pride out, I think, and I feel… good.

Discovering my sexuality was very tricky for me, and at multiple points I found myself asking if I was really bisexual, or if I was just seeking attention. Looking back on that, I’m frustrated with my state of mind, and how easily I could discredit myself like that.

I do, however, feel very privileged to have such supportive family and friends who love and accept me regardless of my sexual orientation. I know that others are not as lucky, and so my thoughts are with the people who cannot celebrate themselves freely this month, and beyond that, cannot be themselves throughout the year. You deserve so much more than what you were given, and I hope that one day you get it.

- much love, Alice
