if I die, please don't let them say shit like "she sang in church choirs since the age of 10 and was an active parishioner at St. Andrew" and omit the fact that I'm a lesbian to make middle America feel bad that I'm dead when otherwise they wouldn't care

the spectrum of queer experience is vast and complex, and none of us know what's going on inside families that are not our own

but my feed is full of media outlets describing a woman with a very-much-living-and-in-the-picture wife first and foremost as though she was a man's widow, and I just

ooh, that sounds fantastic, I don't have a very good track record with podcasts but I'll try to give it a go! There is a new exhibition starting here soon so hoping to visit that in the next few months.

laughing through the pain, because apparently this also used AI, and I missed the disclaimer so FUUUUCKKK
anyway, I watched Titanic Sinks Tonight, and I'd seen some criticisms, and yes it's not perfect, but I was very glad to see and hear the segments about the pov of immigrants, the engineering crew, and the men on the wireless

do you know what.... *FLIPS TABLE* I posted earlier that the next show I was going to watch had an AI disclaimer at the start so I switched it off, but I completely missed this and now I'm raging....
FFS...

This is the part about all of this that pisses me off. When something happens to a white person that has been happening to Black people and POC for centuries, the white folks start up with the β€œoh my god I can’t believe it!” β€œI never thought this would happen!”

WHERE THE FUCK HAVE Y’ALL BEEN???

Feeling extremely bad this morning and assume that a lot of folks feel the same. Going to try to put as much kindness into the world as I can. And we’ll go from there.

the Californian being visible but unable to respond and communicate will always be the most frustrating piece of information I've ever learned πŸ˜”

a drama made with unknown faces, felt refreshing
January 8, 2026 at 4:08 PM
Yeah, it felt like they were half-assing two shows, they should have made the drama and then had a docco to go with it, or made one or the other, but mashing them together didn't really work which was a shame because I thought the actors did a great job, and it's been a long while since I've seen

ewwww

yeah, and it's amazing how different facts hit you as you get older as well, like how young they were. also only just learned recently about the communication and miscommunication between all the ships and it's just... god

Feeding historical images to the beast instead of just... using the images as they are. It's a Victorian history show?! I don't expect or need colourised photographs?!? WHYYYY
January 8, 2026 at 11:30 AM
Correct, and leaving it unlabelled would be a dark descent. I'm raging at them feeding historical images to the beast instead of just... using the images as they are. It's a Victorian history show?! I don't expect or need colourised photographs?!?

Using her queerness to dehumanise her. Fascists.
Jesse Watters highlights that Renee Nicole Good, the woman killed by ICE, had "pronouns in her bio" and "leaves behind a lesbian partner and a child from a previous marriage"

I might take up religion just so I can believe in a Hell for these state sanctioned murderers and their snivelling apologists to be sent to

was about to start watching Lucy Worsley's Victorian Murder Club.

I'm tired. pay a fucking colourist ffs.

β€œRight, what's the problem?”
β€œProblem? Who said there was a problem?”
β€œTone of voice. You have three reasons for calling me: you're bored, you need to tell someone about something clever you did before you pop, or something's wrong. This was your β€˜something's wrong’ voice.”

just had a moment of real magic - we were watching Frozen on Broadway, and I looked out the window... and yelled to my four year old because it had started snowing! and he thought it was Elsa πŸ₯Ή
