apparently my boss who is a professor at my school doesn’t have a cell phone and his coworkers were upset by this so they bought him a childs toy phone and labeled it “David’s jitterbug” (for those of you that don’t know jitterbugs are phones made for old people that have like massive buttons and shit) so the other day I walked into his office to ask him a question and he pressed a button on it which made it start loudly playing the ABCs and he said “excuse me I have to take this” and then started singing along to the ABCs while shooing me out of his office
this is the phone. he apparently was in the middle of a meeting with the department the other day and got annoyed so he pressed a button, said “I have to take this” and left
David’s co-workers probably: “This is a valid tactic to embarrass him into buying a mobile phone, right?”
David: “Bold of you to assume that I get embarrassed.”
wow. so when sansa does something the audience doesn’t like, she’s the one to blame. but when she’s being a good, rational leader, “the writing is inconsistent”.
Ya know bisexual characters can be…bisexual….you don’t gotta write them in fanfic like they’ve been Straight™ all their life but this One Person is the exception….like I know it’s wild….but their partner doesn’t have to be the only person of the same sex they’ve ever Noticed™ ever
i dont care if i sound bitter but the best way to support lgbt people u see in public is to leave us alone (unless they are in danger) but like if you see a same gender couple just walking down the street holding hands like just stay quiet… even if you want to say something like how brave we are or whatever like? it’s still alienating bc we all know that you wouldn’t stop a straight couple on the street to tell them the same thing
this goes for like actually all interactions like – this one girl in my class always asks me about my gf but i dont know her well but doesnt ask the other girls about their boyfriends like – being polite is one thing but gay people notice if we are being singled out and its awkward, no matter how “supportive” you think you’re being
Exactly! Lgbt people aren’t somehow “better” than straight or cis people. The community just wants simplicity. To be like everyone else.
