[id: Screenshots Of Tiktok Captions. The Images Say, But The Only Reason We Still Love Princess Diana

[id: screenshots of tiktok captions. the images say, “but the only reason we still love princess diana is because she did not have the time to disappoint us.”]

begging queer kids to read up on princess diana’s involvement with the community. yes, she was a rich, pretty monarch. yes, she died young.

but the reason why queer people love her is because she used her privilege during the aids crisis to advocate for sick queer men, when very few others would - much less someone of her status.

diana spent years advocating for the health and care of queer people with hiv/aids. in 1987, at the height of the epidemic, she opened the first specialist clinic dedicated to treating aids patients (the first clinic of it’s kind in the uk).

she also fought public hysteria by hugging and shaking bare hands with aids patients, at a time when aids was thought to be spread by skin to skin contact. not only that, she visited patients in the clinic regularly and even comforted them through their sickness.

and when queen elizabeth told her to try focusing on “something more pleasant”?

diana ignored her and kept fighting.

and this is only her work towards the aids crisis. she publicly called out the royal family, brought attention to numerous world issues, and was known as an advocate for empathy and kindness. she’s known and loved as the people’s princess for good reason

in the club freakin it in a sensitive style

any encouraging words to make me feel alive again?

theres much to love on this planet and no one will love it exactly the way you do so stick around until it gets boring to discover anew over and over again just how beautiful and intricate and different to one another every minute spent here is. look into a local therapist

When Jaemin entered the classroom, uniform freshly pressed, hair styled neatly, the first thing he saw was the ghostly apparition of you, sitting on your usual seat beside him— front desk, middle row— head down with your unbrushed hair covering your entire face. He shook his head, a minuscule smile on his face as he walked up to your unsuspecting figure.

“Morning.”

You did not answer, not even a slight budge or tell that you had heard him, save for the faint rocking of your head back and forth. An indication that you were almost, if not already, fast asleep.

Tears of Themis: 2022 CNY SSRs!

Making a brief appearance to gush about these SSRs before I slip away from  Tumblr again, haha.

Xia Yan:

“Today, I’ll let you examine to your heart’s content—what this ranger on a silver saddle and white horse looks like!”

 “I had a dream. In the dream, we looked like this, sitting across each other, face to face. You had a red bridal veil placed over your head…” 

Zuo Ran:

“So long as you do not leave the Xie Zhi* manor… No one will ever know the truth.”

“I…will never let you go. I want you to stay by my side, forever.”

*Xie Zhi: a mythical beast that looks a little like a Qilin (more on Qilin here). It is commonly taken to be the symbol of justice.  

Mo Yi:

“To me, your existence is the only speck of starlight in an eternal night. For that fleeting glimmer, I will willingly suffer ten million years of darkness.”

“As long as it is your wish, I will see that it is fulfilled. So don’t be scared, alright?”

Lu Jinghe:

“Stay with me. After today, you will forget everything about the mortal realm. Until I’m the only person left in your world.”

“What if I were to say that I fancy you, and I want to be with you for eternity?”
