hi everyone im still pissed we never learnt in school that shakespeare was bi and wrote the sonnets about a dude and a woc he was into
hi everyone im still pissed that we were told emily dickinson was a spinster when she spent her whole life writing love letters to a woman
hi everyone im still pissed about the fact that we never got taught any of the super super gay Greek myths. it seems impossible to think they managed to pick all the hetero myths when Greece was just THAT gay but guess what? they did.
hi everyone virginia woolf was also bi im still pissed that so much of literature is queer and has queer coding within it that deserves to be analysed through that lens in the same way that we don’t ignore the gender of an author, but sexuality is never mentioned in highschool literature classes
hi everyone i’m still pissed that we were never taught that da vinci was gay af and that the ideal the western world has of jesus (white, long straight brown hair) was based on one of his male lovers
hi everyone i’m still pissed that we were told sir isaac newton died a virgin when he had multiple boyfriends over the course of his life one of whom he wrote passionate love letters too and lived with
the same ben & jerry’s who pay their workers a thriving wage, perform good™ capitalism since day one and support all the right causes & charities & civil rights movements openly and actively through campaigns, that same ben and jerry’s named an ice cream flavor after tony stark in canon, and if that isnt confirmation enough for you that tony is a good fucking guy and not a ‘capitalist’ and ‘war profiteer’ then ur a lost cause sorry
she is the first diamond, and gems–diamonds included–are made. then what the hell made her? someone? no one? would she even be a gem?
“she’s not like us. she isn’t even like them!” a direct confirmation. she isn’t like gems, and she isn’t like the diamonds, then what IS she like?
she’s a literal celestial light and/or pure burning energy–gems have concentrated physical forms, and yes, they are made of light–but it’s light that is contained and regulated. white diamond seems like she is out of control, almost like there’s too much of her for any other being to handle–and the scope of her power seems as if, either accidentally or purposefully, it’s literally torn homeworld apart.
again, she isn’t like a gem, and gems come from the ground–diamonds too. she probably didn’t emerge from a planet like every other gem. where else could she have come from? ah yes, space.
