trying to blame nick for delays is crazy. and idc if it is nick’s fault (which it’s not), i’m squarely on his side on this one. as an actor it makes zero sense to put your career on hold solely for concepts of a script. until he has a finalized script in his hands, it’s fair game

anyway i’ve been so stressed that my immune system decided to peace out and i somehow caught a cold in the middle of a heatwave ✌🏽 it’s 90 degrees out and i’ve been coughing like a sick victorian child

squid game season 3 is what depression feels like 👍🏽 (i actually think the ending is great, but man is it a gut punch 😭)

y’all i need prayers and major good vibes thrown my way 🙏🏽 (i got good news for once but i need all the spiritual help i can get 🥰)

kids these days have no culture because i made a “it’s just a flesh wound” joke and no one knew wtf i was talking about /s/ i feel so old 😭 (i’m not even 30)

me (who hates drama) creating drama on the internet:

“how is alex the fandom’s punching bag” bestie how much time do you have because not only can i write an entire dissertation about this but i can create a whole syllabus with supporting bibliography and actual statistics

reading comprehension is dead bc what do you mean people think alex is a himbo as if his entire laidback personality isn’t his own suit of armor that he wears bc he commits to things so deeply and feels like he’s too much and so he’s terrified of getting his heart broken

alex claremont-diaz was smart enough to get into law school on a whim and yet some of you act like he was the stupidest and most oblivious person to ever walk the planet

got my parents hooked on suits and you know the chemistry between gabriel and patrick is 🔥 because my dad hopped in the middle of s4 and spent an entire season confused as hell because he thought harvey and mike were actually brothers and so i had to pause and explain the lore

here’s the thing: there are plenty of ways to say “i hear you and acknowledge the problem, but i’m not prepared to point any fingers yet because i don’t have enough information about what happened, but i’m looking into it” that doesn’t take weeks and sweep colorism under the rug

leaving this here and then logging off, because i’m really tired of being labeled as the one miserable rwrb stan account for simply pointing out how fandom racism and microaggressions go unchecked www.teenvogue.com/story/on-whi...

friendly reminder that whitewashing and white-centeredness doesn’t stop at just making a poc character’s skin color lighter, but a lot of y’all aren’t ready for that conversation

i’m not that big into astrology, but i’m blaming my crash out the past few days on this leo full moon. because my level of unhingedness has been insane even for me, so wtf is going on?

sorry but i don’t think henry/others in the context of making alex miserable is fun actually you can enjoy the thought of henry/harry without making it all about how alex would react or be upset about it

and to be clear - the problem isn’t that this trope exists or that people like it. it’s that a good chunk of this fandom can’t separate alex’s bi crisis from this trope, and so alex’s realization of his sexuality is often inextricably tied to jealousy and toxicity

2 back-to-back sacks and an interception leading straight to a touchdown. mahomes was clearly rattled. that’s how you apply pressure 💪🏽

Henry has fancied: + Boys who take their studies seriously. + Smelled like cinnamon + Didn’t know how to properly address him + Had a nice ass = Alex. Who is Singular, yes. But who also represents the culmination of everything he’s liked in other men. “I search for you in everyone I meet.”

anyway i’m logging off for a bit because i fear i might have kicked the hornet’s nest with that one ✌🏽

when you consider how there are almost 2x as many jealous alex fics as there are jealous henry fics, and when you see how jealous!alex is treated in these fics compared to jealous!henry… like nora, i’m just going to let the data speak for itself 💅🏽

forget team taylor or team nick. the real question is are you team ivy or team karen?

anyway my hot takes about how the fandom treats certain characters is not permission to hate on the actors. if you have anything negative to say about nick please let me know so i can block you. please and thank you 🙏🏽

to be clear, i’m talking about how a disproportionate amount of the jealousy trope stories make it a point to use alex’s bi awakening and henry’s slut phase as a means primarily to make alex suffer. but the alex/nora dynamic and how nora is portrayed is definitely relevant.

what makes cmq’s stories like rwrb and the pairing so important is that their characters embrace and take ownership of their sexualities and gender identities. but only the brown character suffers for it in the fandom. and it’s wild to me that i even have to point this out.

am i being toxic? probably. but the double standards in this fandom are honestly so exhausting

you know what? i’m tired of slut henry. where’s slut alex? fair’s fair, let’s have it the other way around for once. give me the stories where henry cries himself to sleep because he has to listen to alex fuck other people. /this is sarcasm/

i said it once but i’ll say it again. the way jealous alex is treated by this fandom vs jealous henry seems microaggressive af henry gets a light slap on the wrist but you want alex to sufferrrrrrr

i need this song injected in my veins
