is anyone else worried that this new ‘only gay actors should play gay characters’ trend can end up being super dangerous and taking us decades back?

for the record i’m not saying i’m for or against it… i’m just trying to wrap my head around it

if we demand that gay characters only be played by gay actors, we’re also taking opportunities away from lgb actors who don’t want to come out. we are also increasing the odds of actors being outed against their will because actors who’ll take on lgb roles will be questioned on their sexuality. also, this could be used as an excuse for straight actors as to why they don’t want to play lgb characters

I feel like people always end up focusing on the wrong thing like the problem isn’t straight people playing gay characters it’s the level of praise they get for it and how they talk about like.. what a brave role it was or something when for gay actors it’s not a role it’s just life

Plus there’s shit like John Barrowman being rejected for a gay role for being “too straight” when he’s literally a gay man and the role ended up going to a straight actor. Like the issue isn’t straight people playing gay characters the issue is that straight people just don’t seem to know how to not be fuckin weird about it

Honestly shoutout to The Social Network for giving us the line “you’re going to go through life thinking that girls don’t like you because you’re a nerd. And I want you to know, from the bottom of my heart, that that won’t be true. It’ll be because you’re an asshole” because if that doesn’t epitomize women’s feelings for entitled male nerds I don’t know what does

“Don’t buy any Girl Scout cookies!!! They support pLANNED PARENTHOOD!!”
me: 

Girl Scouts support planned parenthood? Y’all just doubled my order

Don’t forget this too

Girl Scouts of Greater Atlanta has expanded upon this to include nonbinary youth (and adults) seeing a Girl Scouting experience.

Reblogging for important information.

Shout out to the time they returned a $100,000 donation because the donor– months after making the donation– wanted a guarantee that the money wouldn’t be used to support transgender girls.

In this house we respect girl scouts

“In my poetry class, I’ve always had students memorize something, a few things. I feel that if they’ve forgotten everything I’ve said, if they haven’t written anything down all semester and just stared out the window, at least they’ll come away with a poem memorized.

So one day, years ago, I was on the subway in New York, and a guy across the aisle kept kind of looking at me and finally he came over and said he recognized me as his teacher. I’d taught him about 10 years before that, or more. He’d since become an oncologist, and I congratulated him on his success. Then he said, “You made us memorize a poem.” And I said, “Yes.” And he said, “I’d like to say that poem for you.”

And it was a little poem by Emily Dickinson that he’d carried in his head, and maybe in his heart, for all those years. Over the roar of the 6 train, he yelled that poem in my ear, and I think it was probably the most satisfying pedagogical experience I’ve ever had.”
-Billy Collins, in a conversation

y’all love to mock asian nail salon owners so here’s a little background for your dumbasses:

during the vietnam war, many vietnamese refugees came to america, a lot being women and their children. an american actress, tippi hedren, flew to sacramento, ca. to visit a refugee camp. she wanted to meet the women who were living there and figure out ways to support them. many of them had lost their husbands in the war and were now left without an income and many had no knowledge of how to begin to provide for themselves and their children. while there, tippi noticed that many of the women were fascinated with her manicured nails. tippi had gotten the idea to fly her manicurist to the refugee camp to teach the women how to do nails, in hopes of giving these women a way to support themselves and their families. tippi had paid for 20 women from the refugee camp to attend beautician school and help them get their licenses & eventually find jobs. about 51% of manicurists in the u.s. are vietnamese and many of them are direct descendants of these 20 women who were given the chance to go to beautician school at the courtesy of tippi. so next time y’all want to mock and make fun of hardworking nail techs and treat them like shit, just remember that this is all because of the labor and the persistence of their ancestors who came here with nothing.

Another reason California has a high number of Vietnamese nail techs, is because you can take the test in Vietnamese.

As in, you don’t have to be required to test in English to get licensed which makes the transition easier to learn English gradually.

Anti-Asian sentiment is at an all time high while people still demand their nails to be done.
