NON-freaks Dni. This Is A Freaks Only Zone

I’m a patron of the arts (I leave nice comments on aO3).

"people who stay up at night are either insomniac or In love" people who stay up at night read gay fanfiction on AO3 what are you on about?

(at last night's queer cabaret)

person announcing the show: "now i don't want to see any heckling tonight, no racism, no sexism... none of the isms"

person in crowd: "what about autism?"

announcer: "yeah autism is fine"

My great-grandma is getting close to 100 and her memory is starting to go, and she can’t quite remember what my chosen name is, but she knows my birth name isn’t right. She puts my birth name in quotation marks to signify she knows it’s not correct, and I just. I love her. I love her so fucking much.

Sometimes love is quote marks around your deadname. Sometimes love is “I don’t remember everything about you, but I know you’ve grown and changed. My memory is fading, but I love you.”

Something that I first applied to working with children, and have applied in a limited form to working with adults: you don't need to tell someone when they read your instructions wrong. Sometimes it's enough to point out what they did right and then whatever they didn't do? You ask them to do it in more precise words, and you make it sound like it's a new request. Remarkable how fast things get done this way.

Sometimes it can take some time to process...

I can’t speak for other social media webbed sites but I really enjoy how tumblr seems to just completely spin a wheel on whatever media is hot right now. Like yeah sometimes it’s a new show that’s big and actively coming out but also sometimes there will be a solid month where half my dash is Columbo memes. Defy authority. Get really into an book from the 1800s. Watch shows that haven’t aired in 40 years. Celebrate the anniversary of the Boston Molasses Flood. Become unmarketable

One day, if it hasn't already come to pass, your favourite music, fashion, art, will be defined by the prefix "dad-" or "mom-".

i rlly enjoy reading all ur little diaries on here i hope u all have a nice life
