I feel like people tend to imagine achilles as being big and hairy and muscle-bound but I just want to remind y’all that he apparently spent quite a long time disguised as a girl and nobody could fucking tell?? including Odysseus, who had to trick him into revealing himself, but was apparently not smart enough to figure out which of the beautiful women in front of him was a man in a dress???
so like please consider: petite fine-boned achilles. achilles with killer cheekbones and big dark eyes w long eyelashes. ppl meeting achilles and being all “you’re the one who’s supposed to be a scary warrior?” and then later he he picks up trojans twice his size and flings them across the battlefield and they’re like ‘oh’. achilles being significantly shorter than hector and needing to tilt his head back to yell at him. patroclus being able to sling achilles over his shoulder. patroclus giving achilles piggyback rides. achilles needing patroclus to reach stuff down for him sometimes. achilles being the little spoon. tiny pretty achilles okay
People in Ancient Greece literally used to argue whether Achilles topped or not because some of them thought he was too girly which tells us mainly that Achilles has always been a twink and that yaoi fandom never really changes
september is coming up so here’s your yearly reminder to leave billie joe armstrong the fuck alone
Well of course. We don’t wake him up until October 1st.
His dad is dead, just don’t.
In case anyone reading my blog is unaware, this is a reference to the Green Day song titled “Wake Me Up When September Ends” a song that Billie Joe Armstrong wrote following the death of his father in September of 1982 when Billie Joe was ten years old. The title of the song references his desire to sleep through September in an effort to get some emotional distance from the death of his father.
He’s since been open about the emotional difficulty of having written the song since many people now message him on October 1st to ‘wake him up’ despite the song being a memorial to his departed father.
It’s generally seen as respectful to not try to wake him up. Let him sleep and let him remember his father in peace.
When you wanna make a joke about pitting marginalized groups against each other but then you realize they’ve been each others allies since the beginning
when you expose your own –phobic nature by assuming that bi people (a group stereotyped as promiscuous) and ace people (a group stereotyped as prudish) would hate each other despite facing the exact same brand of discrimination (both from straights and gays/lesbians)(they think we’re not a real orientation)(they thing we need to just pick a side)(they think we just haven’t found the right person yet)(say we’re not *really* LGBTA)
Also you realise that ‘bi aces’ are a thing right?
