“I Want What She’s On.” The Spectrum??

Books you’ll probably read in high school

Basically what they are

Romeo & Juliet: for the love of GOD just COMMUNICATE

The Scarlet Letter: if you ignore the old English, it’s just the author making fun of puritans, Hester Prynn being a badass, and two men who literally drive each other crazy. Bravo

Julius Ceaser: tf Brutus. Shit bitch friend.

The Grapes of Wrath (by Steinbeck): wow this is depressing

Of Mice and Men (also by Steinbeck): wow this is super depressing

The Pearl (guess who): is John Steinbeck okay?

The Crucible: you can say that Abigail was the antagonist but fuck you. She’s the unsung hero. Like, 16 years old and gets taken advantage of by a grown ass, married man. I WISH I had the power to start the chaos that was the witch trials, basically rule the town, and then rob my uncle and run away to Boston. An icon. I stan.

Death of a Salesman: can we read something that doesn’t make me feel suicidal

The Great Gatsby: *sigh*

Macbeth: I’ll tolerate this because witches

Beowulf: is Beowulf a dick or do I just tend to hate these protagonists

Hamlet: the lion king was better

Lord of the Flies: also depressing BUT the author was a teacher at an all boys school and got sick of them and the sudden rise of the “British school children go on adventures” genre pissed him off so much that he wrote a book about them absolutely LOSING IT (“the degradation of society”) and EVERY CHARACTER IS BASED OFF A KID IN HIS CLASS AND IF THAT ISNT THE FUNNIEST SHIT YOUVE EVER HEARD THEN IDK WHAT IS

I hate that no one talks about just how distressing memory loss from adhd actually is. I always see memes that are like “haha I forgot my phone, I don’t remember where my laptop is, etc”, but no one seems to talk about how it can really fuck you up long term to just, not remember things that are completely mundane to non-adhd’ers. The memory loss is, however, so frustrating to us. I cannot physically count how many meltdowns I have had over the sheer mental frustration and torture of not being able to remember seemingly simple things

trans!peter parker

hello i have seen homecoming three times now and i’m obsessed and in love with everything about the movie and the trans!peter headcanon

The first thing i heard about trans!peter was a post talking about how being bullied for being a nerd in school really isnt a common thing anymore, at least in america, and, if anything, in my experience, it tends to be the smartest kids that are actually the most popular. And the post raised the question: So what if peter is actually bullied because he’s trans? And that makes so much sense. And being a trans boy in high school myself and absolutely on board with the headcanon i thought i’d join in and add some things. Some of these other people may have talked about also.

“I am not a GIRL. IM A BOY. I mEAN IM A MAN.” peter gets very upset when donald glover’s character calls him a girl. his voice breaks and he gets visibly flustered.

Flash calls him “Penis Parker”. speaking from experience, high school bullies are not very creative with nicknames and will always go straight for the deepest insecurity they know. I personally think this is a dig at peter being trans.

Peter has proportionally quite small hands and feet. 

He enjoys playing with things like Legos and Star Wars action figures. possibly because he didn’t get to when he was little.

He has quite a high pitched voice which he has difficulty controlling the depth of.

May’s comment about his body changing and him not feeling like he can fit in at a classmate’s party makes much more sense if you think of peter as trans.

Ned asks Peter if the spider venom gave him the ability to lay eggs, which is a bizarre question to begin with, but even stranger if being asked of an amab person. but this likely doesn’t have any substance as it was obviously just meant to be a funny moment, which it was, i laughed out loud all three times i heard it.

Peter doesn’t have much in the way of sideburns.

He’s pretty short.

The gym classes at Peter’s school are not separated by gender and they all wear the same uniform.

Most of his clothes are quite big on him. In my own experience, shopping in the men’s sections in stores doesn’t tend to go very well in terms of finding things that fit. Additionally, baggier clothes help to hide the chest and hip areas.

He doesn’t know how to tie a tie. Now this seems unimportant at first, but i actually think it could mean a lot, so hear me out. Considering how many clubs and extra curriculars he’s in (robotics, marching band, decathlon, etc.) he should have been to many recitals, concerts, competitions, etc that would require him to wear a tie throughout his intermediate and high school years. It’s weird that neither him nor may would know how to tie one. unless- he’s never done it before because he’d always worn the traditionally feminine uniform or formal wear. 

Now, there’s those two shirtless scenes that some people have been using to discredit the headcanon where he’s clearly muscular and flat chested with no visible scars. Well, my doubtful friends, there’s the possibility of a keyhole surgery which leaves minimal scarring. Also, the spider venom increases muscle growth and metabolism, and also gives peter a mild healing factor. This could have caused any scars he had to heal and fade completely. 

now obviously i realize not all of this inherently means he’s trans. cis guys can be short or have small hands and feet or high pitched voices or rounder hairlines, especially when they’re only 15 years old and everyone is growing at a different rate. These things just flesh out the headcanon a bit more. 

tl;dr: Peter Parker is an endlessly adorable trans boy and the hero we all need.

Idk if Mando does but Pedro Pascal absolutely does

Y’all think Mando makes stupid faces at people under his helmet? I feel like he would if they say or do stupid shit bc he knows they can’t see him lmaoo can you imagine

I keep seeing the "chat is a fourth person pronoun" post and it's getting increasingly hard to avoid starting discourse in the notes of it. chat I don't think they know what these linguistics terms they're using mean

love myself a cockroach of a character. i look at them and go ”how is that fucker not dead? they should be dead. they should be dead ten times over. how are they not?” and 90% of the time the answer is a combo of sheer stubborness and homosexuality

wait a second

oh my god.
