why yes i'm normal about ms barbara lasagna, why do you ask

(credit to @laiqualaurelote for coming up with the edwin/jessica rabbit quote!)

Charles only agrees to go to the drag show because he’s hungry.

“I know it’s not your scene,” Crystal is saying as she thrusts a flyer into his hands, “but I’ve got to be there for Niko and I don’t want to go alone.”

“Can’t be alone if Niko’s there,” says Charles absently. He wonders if Al Dente still has the two-for-one deal after 10pm.

“She’s tech-ing the show, you dumbass, I don’t want to be sitting in the audience by myself. Don’t worry, it’s super chill. Nobody’s gonna give you a lap dance — well, not unless you want one, that is.”

Charles likes to think he’s being a pretty great ally. Sure, his girlfriend left him for another woman, but he can’t even be mad about it because it’s Niko, who is the best and sweetest person on earth whom Charles could possibly be replaced by. If Niko’s decided to work a drag show, then all those queens are aces in Charles’ book. Which is not how queens and aces normally work, but Charles could use a new normal.

He scans the flyer. Lot of words, font neon and squigglier than he likes, but one name jumps out at him: BARBARA LASAGNA. God, he would die for a lasagna right about now.

“I’m in,” he says. “Meet you at Soho direct on Sunday?”

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, PEDRO PASCAL!! (April 2, 1975)

Ive been to this art installation when it was in Seattle it was made by an indigenous artist if I remember correctly it has small patches of astroturf in front of a black and white American flag with a sign that invites people “kneel and join in the screams of the American national anthem”

Please tag me if you can find it!

This piece is called Neon American Anthem bu indigenous artist Nicholas Galanin “to mourn the loss of lives, freedoms, and safety for people and lands subjected to American violence, and to protest continuing oppression.”

the thing about being nonbinary is that you really do start to forget that other people have such strict walls around what is and isn’t allowed for genders. i thought we all agreed that we made that up. could you climb out of the cave real quick and feel the sunshine for a minute.

Adolescence: The Cost of a Woman’s ‘No’

I watched Adolescence recently and I’m speechless in the worst way possible. 

I used to believe our generation would be the first to achieve true equity—among genders, among races.

After all, the leaders of the previous generations had laid the stepping stones. We just had to climb them. 

And yet, here we are. Moving backwards. 

Adolescence shines light on the increasing misogyny that is present in our society and more concerningly, this mindset prevalence in our youth.

**spoilers**

hi y’all i just wanted to put you onto this fundraiser for the buffalo nations grasslands alliance. they’re trying to recoup some of the funds for black-footed ferret conservation on tribal grounds that the trump/musk administration has frozen, which is impacting not only the conservation efforts themselves but the livelihoods of the people working on them. the frozen grant is 1.1 million but this fundraiser has a goal of 50,000.

the fundraiser has 24 days left and has only reached 2% of its goal with 11 donations. black-footed ferrets are an endangered lazarus taxon that was thought to be extinct from 1979-1981 before being rediscovered by accident. they’re a miracle of conservation and it would be horrible to lose them for good, not to mention (again) the impact of people working with these animals losing their jobs which is outlined in the fundraiser link. indigenous-led conservation efforts are extremely important for a wide variety of reasons and as someone in the zoology area i feel obligated to share this fundraiser to contribute to those efforts.

i know that things are hard right now and there’s a lot of people and organizations all across the world that need help, so don’t feel pressured BUT if you have extra money and you can contribute to this fundraiser or share it with people who can that would be great.

super cute black-footed ferrets ^

Boosting this here- black footed ferrets are perhaps a little more charismatic than we usually allow here, but they need all the help they can get!
