Had to sit through a talk on blood this week. Love how they insist it's a religous descion, yet barely read any scriptures because the evidence is so weak. Instead we got 25 minutes of anecdotal evidence and irrelevant and/or misleading quotes from "scientific articles".
Blood is sacred until Jehovah decides to spill to prove just how much power he has. He’d kill us all if it’d make him look better
No one:
Me, in a weird point of deconversion/relearning stuff where I can’t do a lot of technical stuff I frequently did in fundamentalist environment I was raised in anymore, but I also don’t know how to do a lot of technical stuff I have to do in the secular environment I’m in now, that others grew up being taught how to do:

First off, excellent take. Authorial intent is relevant and interesting to discuss, as with the internet, it's easier for creators to interact with their audience.
Secondly this was so comforting! I feel like I now have permission to unapologetically revel in my comfort media, created by fans or otherwise.

In conclusion, am I a repressed gay projecting onto fictional characters? Yes. Does that make them or the artists/writers any less precious to me? No.
YESSSSSSS
You ever buy a build a bear for comfort and then assign them a queer identity to quietly rebel against your homophobic parents?

I've never been in a spirit halloween and I want to so bad! I know its dumb, but the fact that I've been raised with idea that a tacky seasonal store is a sign of the devil makes it spicy I swear.
“I could make him better” well I could take him shopping at a Spirit Halloween and kiss him with my apostate lips in the makeup aisle while you think we’re doing homework
does anyone wanna hold hands until we feel a little braver
