people need to accept that some gay/lgbt people are terrible and some gay/lgbt people are boring and it doesnt make them Actually Straight or anything

big pet peeve of mine is gay internet users talking about ellen degeneres and pete buttigieg and acting like they’re “basically straight” as if both these people aren’t literally married to someone of the same sex sleeping in the same bed with them and having gay sex with their gay spouses and as if ellen degeneres coming out wasn’t such a huge moment in the lesbian community and pop culture as a whole that the biggest lesbian website for decades after that was called afterellen like unfortunately being gay doesn’t make you immune to being friends with war criminals.

this message belongs on my blog more than once for the simple fact that not enough people have seen it and let it sink in really deeply

Learn to love kids. Learn to stop hating kids. Learn to stop blaming kids. Learn to respect kids. Learn to process your trauma and separate not wanting kids from projecting bitterness towards kids. Kids are always going to be a part of your communities.

PSA: journalists aren’t supposed to put names in the headlines if the person isn’t a public figure. It’s not a matter of maliciously not giving credit

^^^as a journalist, this is something that bothers me ALL THE TIME

A friend of mine on Twitter explained this the other day, so to elaborate based on what she said: If the name is not instantly recognizable the way a public figure is, then putting the name in the headline isn’t going to bring about any sort of recognition or connection in the reader, and doesn’t do much to draw the reader into the story. But something like “local teen” does create a connection by tying the person into the community, and encourages the reader to learn more about what this local teen has done. The name will be in the article itself, after the headline has done its job at getting the reader to look into it.

It’s worth noting too that usually, according to the Inverted Pyramid writing style used for journalism where the most important information is shared first, the person’s name is usually in the first sentence of the first paragraph.

Whenever I see someone get up at arms over a headline that says “Local Teen” and the first comment is “SAY THEIR NAME” I’m always like “hey, thanks for telling every journalist present that you don’t read articles and just skim headlines.” Really makes us feel appreciated.

I think this Onion headline illustrates the point pretty well

If anyone’s wondering what’s going on in the uk right now, a guy just escaped from a high security prison by DRESSING UP AS A KITCHEN CHEF AND CLINGING TO THE BOTTOM OF A FOOD VAN LIKE SOMETHING OUT OF A GOD DAMN KIDS FILM AND THEY STILL HAVENT FOUND HIM AFTER OVER 24 HOURS…

The bbc have said “Sources suggest that this was an orchestrated escape rather than an opportunistic one” OF COURSE IT WAS PLANNED GUYS THE MAN HAD A SILLY LITTLE COSTUME AND AN AUSTIN POWERS STYLE GETAWAY

do they have sex ed at hogwarts

** r*wling unfortunately answered this question years ago in a way that scarred me for life.

Any headcannon is better than what she said.

well what did a very potter musical have to say about it?

Well A Very Potter Sequel has Scarfy and he’s the scarf of sexual preference-

Sorting Ron as bicurious,

Hermione as waiting for marriage,

And Darren Harry as “could go a number of ways” respectively

Harry is actually sorted as Metrosexual, little Tom Riddle is, in the other hand someone Scarfy “can see going a number of ways”

Pro Tip: Reply with “I was about to head out but what do you need?”

If you want to BE home, just say that you were about to get some groceries, but you can do that later or another day, no worries, so of course you have time.

If you DON’T want to be home, you just say that you’re super sorry but, like you said, you were about to head out to an important appointment (doctor’s appointment usually works well, and also can take quite long), so you don’t have time so sorry.
