okay a while ago i made a post with this image asking for recs

i’m now returning to make a list for anyone else that shares my slightly niche hyperfixation

so here we are a list of different medias that are about zombies that have queer characters

Movies:

Anna and the Apocalypse (2018)
Shaun of the Dead (2004) (intentionally queer-coded but trust me it’s very explicit)
Housewife Alien vs. Gay Zombie (2017)
ZMD: Zombies of Mass Destruction (2009)

Tv Shows:

The Walking Dead (2010-2022) (queer rep from season 4 [2013] onward)
In The Flesh (2013-2014)
The Last Of Us (2023-)

Books/Comics:

The Walking Dead comics (issue #67 onward)
Wranglestone (by Darren Charlton)
Hell Follows With Us (by Andrew Joseph White) (zombie-adjacent)

Webseries/Webcomics:

Shoot Around (webcomic 2015-2017)

Video Games

The Last Of Us (2013) (only one explicitly queer character who’s only in a small section of the game)
The Last Of Us: Left Behind (2013)
The Last Of Us: Part II (2020)

so basically the world is severely lacking in this type of media but im gonna keep this post as an ongoing account of it all so i’ll keep coming back and editing it and adding more as i find more

what upsets me is that the walking dead is the only one of these that isn’t a) a parody or b) about zombies living as normal people (at the time i made the post)

as usual please leave recommendations if you have any !!

by talos this can’t be happening is a mandela effect because the actual phrase is by the gods this can’t be happening and i’ve never heard anyone say the former in game

by talos this can’t be happening

the phrase by talos this can’t be happening is actually from a rupaul roleplay blog who left their husband in a cage with no food and water for a few weeks and the husband died sorry to be the spoil sport but it does have an origin and it is a very tumblr origin in nature

i want to share with you some of my favourite graffiti from Pompeii

  • “Weep, you girls. My penis has given you up. Now it penetrates men’s behinds. Goodbye, wondrous femininity!“ 
  • “Amplicatus, I know that Icarus is buggering you. Salvius wrote this.“ 
  • “We two dear men, friends forever, were here. If you want to know our names, they are Gaius and Aulus.“
  • “Floronius, privileged soldier of the 7th legion, was here. The women did not know of his presence. Only six women came to know, too few for such a stallion.“
  • “On April 19th, I made bread.“
  • “ I have buggered men.“
  • “If anyone does not believe in Venus, they should gaze at my girlfriend.“
  • “It took 640 paces to walk back and forth between here and there ten times.“
  • “Chie, I hope your hemorrhoids rub together so much that they hurt worse than when they every have before!“
  • “Epaphra is not good at ball games.”
  • “Two friends were here.  While they were, they had bad service in every way from a guy named Epaphroditus.  They threw him out and spent 105 and half sestertii most agreeably on whores.“
  • “Secundus likes to screw boys.“

I’ve always loved these. Humanity has never fucking changed.

the guy who wrote “if anyone does not believe in Venus, they should gaze at my gf” drank XTREME respect women juice

attention people of tumblr who like loud music please help i am compiling a new playlist and i need some recommendations

the catch is that it can’t just be loud music itself but it needs to be about needing it to be loud or needing and thriving on chaos of some sort

i have literally 8 songs currently on it and here are some lyrics from them to really showcase what i mean

again i literally only have 8 songs on this playlist that is so fucking short please help me

i don’t know how to tag this post to get it to people so reblogs are so greatly appreciated even more so than normal 😭

This is privilege. My partner had an "essential job" all through the pandemic. He was not allowed to work from home either. If he'd pulled this he would've been fired.

Well, yeah. But if people who have enough privilege to take a stand against workplace exploitation do take a stand, that helps slow down the ongoing creep of how much they're allowed to dick you around at work.

Make no mistake, by "not allowed to work from home," this employer meant "you will not be paid for work you do at home," while clearly expecting the employee to do work (such as answering work emails and taking work calls) while at home. (If the employer didn't expect that, then they wouldn't have noticed when the worker stopped doing it.)

If you're expected to respond when the boss summons you outside of work hours, you are on-call. If you're on-call, you should be paid.

Expecting white-collar workers to be on-call for no extra pay is wage theft, no different from if a retail or food service employee is told to, "Clock out before you clean up/close out your station, so you don't go over your hours."

(And yes, this example happens a lot. If it happens to you, in the US, you should report it to the Department of Labor. It's confidential; your employer will never find out it was you who turned them in.)

You guys rlly don't realise how much knowledge is still not committed to the internet. I find books all the time with stuff that is impossible to find through a search engine- most people do not put their magnum opus research online for free and the more niche a skill is the less likely you are to have people who will leak those books online. (Nevermind all the books written prior to the internet that have knowledge that is not considered "relevant" enough to digitise).

Whenever people say that we r growing up with all the world's knowledge at our fingertips...it's not necessarily true. Is the amount of knowledge online potentially infinite? Yes. Is it all knowledge? No. You will be surprised at the niche things you can discover at a local archive or library.
