listen lestat was not a good parent by any stretch but at least he knew the effectiveness of letting your child sneak out just so they can come home to find you In Their Bed

see like a solid 75% of why i am how i am is the caretaker/provider complex i was instilled with in my youth and lestat was like the first character i read accurately representing the way i felt about it and i have lowkey Kinned him ever since

i just think jean paul gaultier is super fucking neat

odd derstuff @odderstuff.bsky.social · 3h

throughout the 80s and 90s gaultier established himself as the enfant terrible of the french haute couture scene by creating intentionally gender nonconforming pieces & generally pushing the boundaries of Fashion and Gender, as well as garnering a STRONG reputation for using "unconventional"-

society is comfortable with in terms of queer expression. idk if the costume department has thought this much about it or if they just found the pieces to be cool but it means a lot to ME

models in his campaign, predominantly elderly and fat models at a time where NOBODY was even thinking about those demographics. his fashion as an art form has ALWAYS been and still is about queer joy and pushing or even transgressing the boundaries of what "polite" (read: cisheteronormative)-

i've seen sheila on stage and she is very tall in person. google says she's 6'0 so she's either the same height as sam or slightly taller depending on what sources you believe, but also big ass heels/platforms would be very fitting for lestat this season so it's still a possibility!
