i hope yall are being careful with lil nas x; he’s a very good and entertaining performer, but he’s still not your friend. i’m not saying he’s secretly horrible, but the familiarity from like his twitter and tik tok and all is just part of the performance. In a very real way, lil nas x doesn’t actually exist; he’s just a character Montero Lamar Hill plays for our amusement. don’t forget that.
this isn’t like about any specific reaction i’ve seen, just that anyone who becomes a Tumblr Darling will inevitably be turned on real fuckin fast when it turns out they’re a real person with a private life, so when people start talking about this guy like he’s the Best Most Real Celebrity, i start to get Very Very Nervous.
See, when I think to myself “we need to protect this man” I DO 100% mean that we need to protect him from being the next celebrity to be thrown violently from a pedestal he should never have been forced into.
you’ve all heard of “faithful translations” now get ready for “unfaithful translations” where i make my translation say whatever the fuck i want because i think the source material sucks ass
great to be in the habit of using they/them for people you don’t know who haven’t told you their pronouns. extremely funny execution of that when friends they/them my dad
