Queer Culture Is Knowing You Need To Take A Gym Course For School And Low-key Just Straight Up Considering

Queer culture is knowing you need to take a gym course for school and low-key just straight up considering Fenching cause Gay/Queer jokes and Wii Sports Fencing is legit the closest you've ever gotten to being interested in "real sports".

can we stop mocking queer people who are really excited and decked out in rainbow and crazy at pride events? why is there a stigma around "baby gays"? it's good that someone's excited and proud of who they are. celebrate that. hype them up. at the very least let them just be happy without your snotty ass commentary.

hello. I've been really struggling lately and have almost completely lost my will to live.

*puts up a flimsy sign with "this is a one note one day post" on it*

every note this posts gets is how many more days I will stay alive for.

you can spam it idc

I wrote a song for Carrie for my fic Friends on the Other Side (it’s in ao3 my username is Cuddly Starfish btw fifth chapter is up) and it’s like past midnight but I’m calling it Better. Imagine Carrie singing a ballad like song to Julie to apologize for what happened between them (which I have had in the fic as her stealing one of Julies songs when they were younger because we love to see Julie parallel her boys) and she’s playing an acoustic guitar

Better (Carrie Wilson):

I knew you were better but I had to be best

I held myself proudly and stuck out my chest

I know that I hurt you, please know I’m aware

And I’m sorry

I know that I hurt you

I know I was wrong

I know that you moved on;

I watched you stay strong

I know that I hurt you

So I’m singing this song

To try and tell you that

I know that I hurt you but I’m trying my best

I’ll try to be better, to pass all the tests

And I’ll say this prayer

To show you I care

I can’t ask for forgiveness

but just know that I’m there

Until you can hug me and see me and love me and know me and trust me again

I know that I hurt you

I know you’ll need time

I know that I messed up

The song wasn’t mine

And I’m probably too late

But at least the words rhyme

Or I tried to

I knew better

I’ll do better

I’ll be better

If you’ll let me try

Watch for this in future chapters of Friends on the Other Side 👀👀

Once a blade broke so we stopped the bout right and then we realized that it has broken in TWO places because when we held it the way it should be it was shorter and we searched and searched for the third shard of broken saber

We never found it

I feel like there aren’t enough shitposts about fencing. This sport is fucking wild man, I have 80 million problems and my weapons and body cords breaking on the strip are all of them. All the weapons have rivalries against each other, epees have to listen to the sabers and foils bitch about right of way and their refs being shit… I feel like there should be some more shit about a dumbass sport on this dumbass website

On a different but similar note, in Riposte when Adrien and Kagami first fence, they start off using épée techniques and fencing épée but then as soon as they unhook it’s shown that they are using sabres and then they start using sabre techniques, which is just- no. It changes the target area, the weapon they use, and the freakin’ RULES! (Sabre and foil are military sports, épée is made for dueling and has a WHOLE ton less rules)

But none of this matters because before and after the bout they didn’t salute, shake hands, NOTHING????? You can get disqualified for that in sabre?? And I know it’s not that big of a deal because it’s fencing in a cartoon and even then it’s a fencing CLASS not a competing but come on they’re claiming to be the best fencing school in Paris and they don’t even do the basics when it comes to manners we learned this stuff our first day

OK SO DIFF ANON BUT whenever Adrien is show fencing in s1 he's using an épée, HOWEVER the techniques he uses (in fencing or as Chat Noir) are actually sabre techniques (it wouldn't actually work in a real match but shh it's a cartoon) so I'm guessing he practices both

that’s actually really interesting omg???
