I legit thought D. H. Lawrence and T. E. Lawrence were some kind of relatives and D.H. was definitely making fun of his sour old veteran cousin or something in Lady Chatterley's Lover. I clearly need to read more. Not opposed to that but I need to find the time…

Just read A/S/L and Paul Takes the Form of a Mortal girl and the ANXIETY of being queer and just being a fucking mess and not connecting to people in “the community,” is on full display so at least it’s not just me.

“…in this essay I will…”
In the Incredibles (2004), Elastigirl is worried her big butt is a turn off for her mediocre husband. This is a reference to the movie taking place in the early 2000s & also how cishet men hate eating ass.

It honestly really does suck to be cast as “the villain in someone else’s story” and you can’t understand why and of course they won’t tell you because you broke an “unwritten rule” that if they explained out loud would make them sound kind of insane at best but like some weird villain at worst.

Danes lost the most per capita in America's war in Afghanistan. Canada lost the second most per capita (if we discount the tiny Baltics).
Allies bled for the US after 9/11, and this is the thanks they get.

Again, it is utterly shameful & demonstrates the total failure of all of our political institutions that threatening our closest NATO allies with territorial conquest has not immediately ended this presidency.
Denmark lost more troops per capita in the post 9/11 war on Afghanistan. Saying they “are not a good ally” because they won’t surrender their territories to the US is lunacy. We are betraying our allies to satisfy the whims of a would-be Emperor for whom the US is not enough.
