It Makes Me Happy When They Listen

Oh he was down BADDD

imagine being in a club in 1983 and DJ's like here's a new one and blue monday starts playing. i would've left the club injured.

paul: if we put the songs in a certain order we can weave a narrative thread

john, literally twirling his hair: haha and it's like we're lovers and in love and the songs are all about us and our love

"guys we're so cooked" "it's wraps" "the end is near" shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up. i say that with love because you are probably saying it out of distress and hopelessness, but for your own well-being and for everyone else's, please stop saying this shit.

no we are not "cooked." and by saying that, by the way, you are giving more power to the neo-nazi oligarchy in charge.

they want you to abandon all hope of a better life. they want you to believe "oh well, it's over, we might as well stop trying to fight back and just resign ourselves to despair forever."

every time you get on tiktok and comment "guys we're so cooked haha it's over," you are feeding into the mindset of hopeless compliance. you are, unknowingly, spreading this infectious idea that just because we've lost one battle, we've lost the entire war.

your words matter. i am saying this out of love and concern for our future, but please stop choosing words of defeat.

1973

Queens Freddie Mercury blowing a kiss to a dissaproving crowd member from one of their early shows in Oxford, London

pope francis died without lezzing out. don't let that happen to you.

someone: says absolutely anything brian:

Chappell Roan not playing about her boundaries and personal safety and putting her foot down and yelling "shut the fuck up" at rude paparazzi during the VMAs red carpet is healing something in me truly. That is a lesbian woman refusing to act all grateful and bashful at being allowed space, she is owning the space for which she has worked over a decade and assertively setting her boundaries and giving zero fucks about whose ego she bruises on the way because only people who take advantage of you take offense when you set boundaries and I am enjoying every second of it
