I don’t agree with people who say you shouldn’t review books you DNF.

I dnf’d the Heated Rivalry book, because the characters internalized anti-queerness was difficult for me to read, but I’m excited for the tv show.

I’m more comfortable with those themes in a show run by a gay man.

Just saw a Black creator on TikTok refer to the closeted gay men on Heated Rivalry as “colonized DL” and I laughed so hard I think a sprained something.

People don’t understand that stripping the guardrails of regulation and oversight doesn’t just apply to like better business bureau type shit but also like on a practical level when I get into an elevator I expect that it has passed a safety inspection & that type of security will be gone soon

SPOILERS!

Episode 3 of Heated Rivalry is sweet, and heart wrenching, but also I think it’s doing some amazing work around the reality of queerness in our current times. That even as many of use are living out and proud, there are still many who can’t. How being queer can still be very isolating.

This was everything I wanted from Zeus and Hera (Callisto and Perseus). I have a weak spot for a violently antagonistic woman who doesn’t know how to ask for help and a tender hearted man who falls hard and just wants to take care of her.

My only complaint is that there isn’t more.

a load-bearing component of “the magic of Christmas” is the invisible domestic labor of moms

you are now realizing how much she was doing for you and instead of just thanking her you’ve decided it’s about the decline of civilization
Because you're an adult you fucking muppet. You gotta pay the magic forward.

yeah, the right thrives on sites where making people miserable is rewarded by the algorithm.
The real question is not "Why is Bluesky so left-coded," the real question is "Why can't the right exist in a social media environment without algorithmic assistance, where people can ignore them"

It’s fascinating to watch the discourse around Heated Rivalry from new fans who are just watching the show and book fans.

I only read like 10% of the book and have decided to just watch the show. And I’m really enjoying it.

But it’s weird. I see book fans trying to “give more context” to scenes

Had to block a dude who was demonstrating the exact point of the first post in this thread.

*sigh*
I swear, trying to talk to Star Wars fans about the very obvious flaws of the Jedi is like trying to explain the reality of how laws are applied verse how we are taught they should work.

It doesn’t matter how Lucas says the Jedi should work, how they are presented in canon is deeply fucked!
