maybe this year/since daddy's queer/i'll get some better stuff

[chicafrom3]

Hey, you know how every year I say that I'm never going to work a Regis Glee Club concert again? This year when I say it, I get to mean it!

...my hands are cold. :(

Also I'm really not digging LiveJournal's new flagging feature thing, mainly because a huge chunk of my flist is now behind lj-cuts that say nothing more informative than "this post may contain material unsuitable for minors" or whatever it is. *sulks*


In brighter news:

"The Wizard & I": queer/trans anthem, y/n? assiduous1 and I were listening to John Barrowman's cover of the song last night -- and then Idina's, and then Julia's, just to be fair -- and realized that the lyrics work really well for that.

We also, y'know, watched Newsies and found even more slash than ever before (holyshit I never noticed Blink's arm around Boots before, or how utterly casual Boots is about it...and the Skittery/Bumlets!) and also she has been won over to the awesomecakes that is Olive/Alfredo.


And, finally, a meme, snagged from warpedsexuality:

it really does!

LAST NIGHT = AMAZING! (You need to visit me sometime! and I likewise! Because I believe I will miss you.....)

[chicafrom3.livejournal.com]

Cheer up, out of sight out of mind and all that...

But we'll work something out! We'll see each other somehow!

[allfireburns.livejournal.com]

I'm so glad no one on my flist seems to want to use that feature. Because I will kill things when my flist starts disappearing behind random, unhelpful cuts.

"The Wizard & I": queer/trans anthem, y/n?
Oh man, I've been thinking that since shortly before I came out to my family. Uh, yeah. Also, what, Barrowman cover of "The Wizard and I"? WANT.

[chicafrom3.livejournal.com]

The first time I saw it, see, I knew about the new flagging feature, I read about it in the official posts, but I didn't process it. So I for some reason figured that somebody was making a movie-related joke with their LJ cut and moved on.

And then I saw it a bunch more times, realized, and went ARRRGH NO. *flail* I hope your flist remains considerate. I will definitely not be making use of the feature.


It's...it's so obvious. Yes? Yes. (And, uh. I'll share. I need to do an upload post soon anyway.)

[allfireburns.livejournal.com]

Also, that damn orange flag is getting really annoying. it's the fact that it's orange, I think. I don't know what color I would prefer, but. *Shrug*

Oh yes. It's kind of difficult to see that song any other way now. ^^ (♥)

[chicafrom3.livejournal.com]

I know! It's like...orange is a color that invites you to use it. It's attention-whoring. By making the flag orange, they're pretty much saying "Report this! Please? Even if it's not actually flag-able material!" It's really annoying me.

Sorry to lj jack... but I quit ExIsle. Got any suggestions where I can go now?

[chicafrom3.livejournal.com]

I've no idea. :/ I've not moved on to a new MB since informally leaving EI, I've just been hanging around LJ to a ridiculous extent. So. Uh.

You could very easily make any character in the Newsies gay with any other character. They are all obsessed with touching one another. Really. It's hard to think of them as straight.

[chicafrom3.livejournal.com]

I'm pretty sure that I'm incapable of thinking of any of the Newsies characters as straight. Really. Given that assiduous1 and I were freezeframing the rally at the end trying to decide which of the very few girls in the crowd was Sarah's girlfriend...yeah.

It has to be Disney's queerest movie ever, and I love it for that. ♥

*goes to rewatch Spot's nod at Race's "ain't I pretty" just one...more...time...*

[ollie-xox-tv.livejournal.com]

oh man, i wouldn't even want to see my pathetic score on that meme. it would be 98% boy, 2% girl. hehe.

its weird, i have the newsies soundtrack because a few people on my f-list love it, but i've never seen it. hopefully i will soon, though.

[chicafrom3.livejournal.com]

It's not a very balanced meme, is it, in that it seems to assume that the defining feature of "girls" is being obsessed with their appearance. *blink*

Seeeee ittttttt! It is a ridiculously slashy movie with lots of pretty teenage boys who sing, dance, and touch each other inappropriately at all times. I ♥ it.

[ollie-xox-tv.livejournal.com]

yeah. uhm, i tried it and my boy:girl ratio was 20:7. *hides*

pretty teenage boys who sing, dance, and touch each other inappropriately? i think i could handle that. ;D

[chicafrom3.livejournal.com]

Awww. *hugs*
