I'm very tired of this "queer college students should stop supporting Palestine, they'd kill you there!" I watched a hijabi ask a trans man, "but what name do you want to go by?" A butch giving a woman their hoodie so that she could keep her hair covered after the cops took her scarf. Muslim girls making sure the lesbian couple got through the system together. Religious men making sure green haired protestors got out safe. A Palestinian girl with an ex-southern baptist fiance, who definitely isn't a practicing Muslim, whose parents were raising hell for her. I don't want to hear it. Solidarity forever, free Palestine.

Those who tell you your comrade is your enemy work for the real enemy. Do not let them divide you with xenophobia and lies.

also, homophobic people should not be systematically killed for their ethnicity!! yes, solidarity forever, AND Palestinians do not need to demonstrate solidarity with white queer people in order for those white queer people to oppose their genocide.

what do you have against the great gatsby? I'm a bit weirded out that there are two, but the other at least shortened that name to just Gatsby, and I like Florence.

I don't really like the story of gatsby so I know nothing about the musicals and now I'm curious?

i feel like the gatsby that’s on broadway right now just missed the actual point of the book and feels like it’s just “omg roaring twenties let’s party for two hours” even though the party is a minuscule scene in the book. also i really don’t like the songs i found them extremely cheesy

it’s probably a fun time if you wanna go to the theatre and turn your brain off for a couple of hours (like moulin rouge) but if i went to a gatsby musical i would actually want to be using my brain because it’s adapted from such a profound text
