and then:
i needed this all on my blog.
Gerard’s turn on: Frank’s blood.
LOL it’s not his turn on. He said he was getting back at Frankie for that. More like his idea of revenge is a kiss.
Top 7 most female positive shows (in no order): Doctor Who
While it’s true that the world’s longest running Tv drama is about a Doctor and his TARDIS, it is also about ordinary women who become heroes. Even since before the reboot of classic series, the Doctor’s Companions have been helping him save the world. The character of the Doctor is impossibly old, and yet every single companion we have seen has taught him new things about himself, saved him from peril, and changed the fate of the universe as we know it. Doctor Who teaches girls that you don’t need have magical powers or be exceptional at anything to be strong. That you don’t need to lie in wait while your prince saves you. That every ordinary girl can rise up and become extraordinary. The companions of The Doctor are all beautiful inside and out, and truly exemplify everything that a female role model should be.
Of all TV shows in the world, I’d never think of Doctor Who as being one of the most female positive. Actually, I think RTD and Moffat are both quite sexist, and that seeps into their writing. Doctor Who is my favorite TV show, but no, this just doesn’t fly with me.
Referring to Dave as 1/2 a gay because he’s not out is kinda offensive to me ngl.
I’m sure people aren’t going to get their panties in a knot over what Chris says though. It’s only that evil Max Adler that deserves smite for this type of thing.
This. So fucking much. Also I don’t know the complete context but I’m guessing Santana and Brittany don’t count because of their vagina-owning status?
I hadn’t read the interview but I was so confused about who Chris was referring to as half gay. I mean, no one would say that Kurt was half-gay for the first few episodes of Season 1.
I’ve finally seen the interview, and he never actually referred to anyone as half-gay. Vagina-owning status didn’t even come up, because what the interviewer said to him was, “there are so many hot gay guys on the show.” His response was, “There’s like .. one and a half.”
There are, like, six things he could’ve meant by that, and although I was wildly offended that he’d refer to Dave as “half gay” when I thought that’s what he’d said, I now think he either wasn’t considering Dave at all, or was talking about the sex appeal of that group of actors.
My best guess is that he was calling HIMSELF half-hot, or calling Darren .. half-gay, lol. Because maybe he thought the interviewer meant that there are so many hot gay men WORKING on the show, she never actually said “characters.”
I don’t know, man. I don’t know.
What I do know is that he said “one and a half,” so if he WAS talking about Dave as the half, he’d still have been excluding either Kurt or Blaine, so it doesn’t make sense, anymore, that that’s what he meant.
If it WAS, though, yeah, he can suck it for that little remark.
Most people here in the Klaine fandom think he was taking a jab at Darren’s height… It really wouldn’t make any sense for him to be talking about Dave ‘cause that would exclude Blaine completely.
blaine’s homophobic dad paid thousands of dollars to send him to an all boys school with a no tolerance bullying policy
that fucking asshole
last I checked this was just a theory.
sooooooo
what was the point of this?
blaine’s dad sent him to a private school after he got the shit kicked out of him at his old one
someone get him a father of the year award pronto
Don’t you understand? A straight person acknowledging a gay person as human and not kicking them out of their house deserves a ton of cookies! (Also, it’s not like maybe his dad’s rich and paying tuition for Dalton isn’t a problem or like maybe Blaine got a scholarship. No. Not possibilities.)
you are all exhausting and pathetic
this was a joke
Why did you think I responded sarcastically?

Dear Brad Falchuk,
“What is it about that specifically that I can do something about?”
Here is a very specific list of things that you can do.
Please share this with Ian Brennan, Ryan Murphy, and your new writers.
There are, without a doubt, things missing from this list. However, the issues listed seem to be the most pressing and urgent.
What the actual fuck? Are you serious? I agree with 1C in that other characters should also sing, 2D, 7, and 4. I would say 5, too, but I actually think they’ve been taken quite seriously, especially considering their relationship blossomed because the fans wanted it to. I don’t think I’ve watched enough episodes to really form an opinion on 8 and 6 (although I do think 8 comes from a Brittana shipper, because from what I’ve seen, most of the guys are sexist assholes and only Artie was called out).
But to start the whole thing off with Blaine hate is just ridiculous. And Kurt has no flaws? Are you fucking kidding me? He’s probably the one that has had to cry the most in the show yet his life is somehow the easiest to navigate?
There are so many horrible things with Glee that aren’t even mentioned, though.

Let’s face it - English is a crazy language. There is no egg in eggplant nor ham in hamburger; neither apple nor pine in pineapple. English muffins weren’t invented in England or French fries in France. Sweetmeats are candies while sweetbreads, which aren’t sweet, are meat. We take English for granted. But if we explore its paradoxes, we find that quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square and a guinea pig is neither from Guinea nor is it a pig.
And why is it that writers write but fingers don’t fing, grocers don’t groce and hammers don’t ham? If the plural of tooth is teeth, why isn’t the plural of booth beeth? One goose, 2 geese. So one moose, 2 meese? One index, 2 indices? Doesn’t it seem crazy that you can make amends but not one amend? If you have a bunch of odds and ends and get rid of all but one of them, what do you call it?
If teachers taught, why didn’t preachers praught? If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat? In what language do people recite at a play and play at a recital? Ship by truck and send cargo by ship? Have noses that run and feet that smell? How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same, while a wise man and a wise guy are opposites?
You have to marvel at the unique lunacy of a language in which your house can burn up as it burns down, in which you fill in a form by filling it out and in which an alarm goes off by going on. English was invented by people, not computers, and it reflects the creativity of the human race (which, of course, isn’t a race at all). That is why, when the stars are out, they are visible, but when the lights are out, they are invisible.

I love this, but all languages have their own beautiful eccentricities.
Your position as a privileged person means that your voice will be listened to much more than those you are privileged over
It really does. If you talk about how hard it is having a gay son or an autistic boyfriend or a trans sister, your voice is going to get listened to. If I talk about how hard it is being queer, autistic, or trans, people who are not these things rarely listen.
It is not too much to ask that you keep your voice to an appropriate whisper (or not at all) while we talk about our actual lived in realities, and you all listen.
Also: don’t ever ask for cookies.
Number of people paying attention to what they were saying during this scene: ZERO
If you look really closely, you’ll realize Hermione was in this scene too.
I’m a Hufflepuff… and I can’t find her?
Can’t get past Rupert’s everythinggggggg.So was I the only one watching Hermione and only Hermione the whole time and waiting for her to take her clothes off too then?
No. I was like, “Sorry, Dan. I know you were my first celebrity crush, but Emma.”
