Look I’m just gonna say it: it’s difficult for me to believe that this level of disrespect is not tied to this series being about gay people. I’m the first one to talk about how much privilege white ppl have in this space, but I can’t imagine this level of casual for a het book becoming a smash hit
No jury would convict Rachel Reid if she set the publisher’s building on fire for this

every few years it's revealed that the NYT was sitting on information about some horrific thing that public knowledge of would have changed the country's course and for some reason a ton of people still give them money. you can play those games on other sites

Meanwhile, I DO love this. Nothing I may or may not feel about Emerald Fennell's Wuthering Heights is talking about the Charli xcx/John Cale collab; this is amazing and peak gothic romance

“inspired by the greatest love story of all time” is so funny, like they’re really hedging their bets for when everyone is like “this is barely wuthering heights, why did you bother”

my father-in-law is a “I know a guy” Guy. sadly all the old Guys are aging out of the Guy Economy. Guys are fundamentally incompatible with Hustle Culture because it’s not about “winning” a deal, it’s about collecting favors and goodwill in a mutually-beneficial cycle. protect your local Guy Economy

Vogue Australia published an article about how fire the fashion was in the original Sailor Moon 90s anime and I agree.

saw the new FANTASTIC FOUR movie and was PULLED OUT OF THE MOVIE by the ubiquitous use in the sixties of characters HIGH-FIVING EACH OTHER
the high-five was invented in 1977 by gay baseball player Glenn Burke (and became a gay shibboleth til the straights stole it) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_five

![The high five is a hand gesture whereby two people simultaneously raise one hand and slap the flat of their palm against the other.[2] The gesture is often preceded verbally by a phrase like "Give me five", "High five", or "Up top". Its meaning varies with the context of use but can include as a greeting, congratulations, or celebration.
There are many origin stories of the high five,[3] but the first and two most documented candidates are Dusty Baker and Glenn Burke of the Los Angeles Dodgers professional baseball team on October 2, 1977, and Wiley Brown and Derek Smith of the Louisville Cardinals men's college basketball team during the 1978–1979 season.[4][5]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ng53ikph73puxk3z4hova3a6/bafkreift6phx7s6ezqv6bumiyp5s7mutrc4xlbi6sdqyvc5sop4h53f6j4@jpeg)

Superman is not only an immigrant allegory, but he is a straight up refugee. He has no native home to return to. It was destroyed due to neglect and willful ignorance. His parents sent him away knowing they would never see him again.
