It's so funny to me that Space Jam's solution to making Bugs Bunny more hetero was to give him a sporty TOMBOY girlfriend.
For flamboyant, crossdressing Bugs. Like who ya foolin', fam, he's SO much more femme than her. Like who do you REALLY think is topping who here?
34 years ago today, protesters in Beijing unveiled a 10 metre tall papier-mâché statue, "The Goddess of Democracy", in Tiananmen Square.
On the other side of the world, I was born.
At least one cool thing happened that day.
Happy Birthday, Goddess ✊🔥🇨🇳
Down with fascism
I feel like I never really had a childhood in a lot of ways. I was a tired, bitter old man in a little kid's body. Like an inverted Benjamin Button. Born old on the inside instead of the outside.
That's part of why I'm in my thirties doing silly shit like wearing hyena ears and collecting plushies. Desperately trying to feel young just once in my life before it's too late.
If you're only as old as you feel, I've been a grouchy 70-year-old man since I was like 10.
I spent a lot more of my childhood around old people than I did kids my own age, cuz the churches my dad pastored were mostly old people; the few kids that were there hated me.
My dad used to morbidly joke his job was "laying churches to rest". Small town churches of mostly seniors, not growing or finding new members, just slowly dying off. Way more funerals & nursing homes in my childhood than most.
I swear to god, if I get covid again, especially this soon, I'm fucking done.
I've given up any hope of a social life in order to keep me & my clients safe. I've endured 3 1/2 years of dismissal & mockery, random strangers rolling their eyes, laughing in my face. If even after that I have to endure catching covid TWICE less than six months apart with a job that doesn't even give me sick leave, RIGHT as I have to move AGAIN, on my fucking BIRTHDAY no less...I'm fucking done, man.
So one of my roommates has covid😷
It's a fairly big house with lots of open space, so I hope if I just keep my air filter on and mask around him I'll be fine, but this is a reminder how desperately I need to live without roommates.
Wish I weren't poor.
