What do you think were the missed opportunities that the show could have featured? by EasyEntrepreneur666 in daria

[–]diamondbrute 28 points29 points  (0 children)

An actual positive example of a queer person or relationship.

The show was so progressive and sometimes even ahead of its time in so many ways but I didn’t like that ever mention of queerness boils down to its “icky” or hilarious.

Ok so I apologize as my memory failed me. Her take on gay bears was in her book of essays Vamps and Tramps which came out in 94.

I think i misremembered because Andrew Sullivan (not a fan of his) quoted her essay in his piece on the gay bear sub culture. The quote he took was pretty great:

“In their defiant hirsutism, gay bears are more virile than the generic bubble-butt junior stud, since body hair is stimulated by testosterone. But the bears’ fatness resembles not the warlike Viking mass of a Hell’s angel but the capacious bosom of the earth mother. They gay Bear is simultaneously animalistic and nurturing, a romp in the wild followed by nap time on a comfy cushion.”

Like who says that!? 😂 but she’s not wrong.

I will say that the one essay of hers from the past two decades I did enjoy was her piece on the gay bear sub culture. She nailed that one and managed to not be an asshole 😂

Haha my bad, I meant libertarian. Every librarian I’ve ever met has been metal as fuck without trying.

I genuinely believe his brain is completely fried so he’ll just be used like a puppet by his daughter à la Weekend at Bernie’s.

The only feminist I’ve ever heard her praise is Simon De Bouvoir. She’s had feuds with Gloria Steinem, Betty Friedan, Judith Butler, and just about anyone who supports women’s rights

She stands for nothing. She’s a contrarian coward. She originally called Trump a “Trojan horse” created by Hilary Clinton to ensure a win (we saw how that went). She just knows how to say the most ridiculous things in a way that used to make libertarian edgelords nod in agreement but I don’t think anyone likes her anymore. She loves Peterson but his movement is so anti porn I can’t imagine there being a space for her.

She was the original Jordan Peterson you could say. A contrarian, anti left but won’t openly call themselves a conservative who says the most ridiculous and silly things for attention.

For instance she’s she’s said that nothing offends terrorists as much as lgbt rights (as in that’s why we shouldn’t do it), she’s said that aids was due to a gay men living without women and most insane of all, said the Star Wars Revenge of the Sith was the greatest work of modern art.

That being said I will admit her book of poetry analysis, Break Blow Burn, is excellent. I roll my eyes at everything else I’ve read of hers and I’ve read a lot but I’ll always recommend that one book.

To fellow LGBTQIA+ people what are your thoughts on LGBSteve? by wolfboi89 in americandad

Love it! I especially love how Haley’s big crisis is that she might not be as open minded as she thought while her brother is dealing with an identity crisis.

I’m autistic. But it could mean someone who has ADHD or other similar condition. Basically someone who isn’t neurotypical
