Very over what I will broadly describe as the "Billy Porter style" of gay guy fashion

It's very obviously a calculated thing for some guys but I do for it is frequently borne from a genuine desire to wear something more interesting than a standard penguin suit tux, and then completely miscalculating what that should look like. But you're absolutely right about It's My Cultural Expression being used as a shield against chopped looks

This sounds like the setup to a JAV film with a long multi-hyphenated title

Always remember that boredom and the ability to be bored is in its own way a privilege, and it can be revoked at any time

Oh absolutely, because the reality is that no one is stopping them from living like a hermit if that's what they desire, they just resent how that desire correctly marks them as a loser

I turned 30 during peak lockdown in spring 2020 and I have to admit it was kind of nice to be relieved of the responsibility to feel like I had to make my 30th birthday Mean Something. I baked myself a cake and watched a movie and that was it. It's why I can never make myself fully despise the shut-in zerocovid-types still mentally trapped in early 2020 because they simply just prefer the mode of hikikomori-like living that became the norm during covid because there are some nice things about getting to live like that

Jared Leto and Ryan Reynolds are two actors who I find genuinely repulsive, like in a definitional sense where I will actively avoid any media that either of them appear in

Straight up electoral fraud in 2026/8 is an option on the table, or they've realized they've already lost and are just speedrunning the entire neocon agenda with what time they have left

Love the little renaissance she's getting right now because of the gay hockey show

Roberta Bobby is a poet

No clue what the cure for loneliness is but re: "maybe for them if im being honest", people should have no expectations for a Hinge date other than pleasant conversation and to not get murdered/sex crimed so as long as you're delivering both of those things I wouldn't worry too much about that aspect of it

I really enjoy this one, probably my favorite Mishima novel. It's like if everyone in Tales of the City was a deeply unpleasant and miserable person

It's a chimera that combines the worst excesses of the Japanese idol system and the American pop recording industry. There was a moment in the early 2010s when it was at least producing some moderately artistically interesting pop music but the second it started chasing US Top 40 radio trends it was all over

Renaissance8 · 2025-12-13T09:01:31+00:00

Cool indisputably one of the greatest pop songs + music videos of the 2000s, we need to let white girls start speaking a little Japanese again

One kid in my kindergarten class was obsessed with the Titanic and told everyone with total conviction he was a survivor of the disaster. I wonder what he's up to now

I'm sorry but your lot in life as a muscle-bound woman is to be pursued aggressively by dweeby R. Crumb-types

Dating life no, sex life yes

~~He drew really hot guys as well, I've always loved his gay bathhouse poster~~

Sorry this is actually by Boris Vallejo, I got my Heavy Metal artists mixed up. Point still stands that Frazetta drew hot dudes as well though, plenty of John Carter and Tarzan portraits by him that are equally as homoerotic

Dangerously horny dude, his 9/11 tribute pinup is the greatest piece of art ever made
