Meme-ing our way through

Haha. It’s my main trash fandom (called the phandom). They’re youtubers. If you ever want an exploration on sexuality and internalized homophobia and being a public figure, Dan’s coming out video is amazing. It’s also 45 minutes long.

ok I opened this up thinking I’d watch a few minutes maybe and I’m 30 minutes in (1.5 speed though) and I know I’m going to watch this whole thing. Wow. I had no idea.

Agreed it is super weird. When it’s ambiguous or unclear if they’ve made a statement, you’re left being like “is there actually information out there, or am I just trying to out someone who isn’t out yet?” And also, why do people get assumed to be straight until proven otherwise. But it’s also something that a lot of young queer people like to look up to role models. For a long time, we had almost none so we clung to what we had.

But he has made a statement. His statement is that his sexuality is private and he doesn’t feel that he owes that part of himself to the public.

Oh yea, I didn’t know about any statements until you said that. That’s why I was confused - I was stating I thought he was gay, based on what I see as a non-fan in my circle, so I was surprised to hear otherwise. Now the people saying he’s queerbaiting have more context.

Since you said you didn’t really follow the Try Guys- did you see Eugene’s coming out video? It was a big production number; but then also a video that he talked through his thoughts.

I don’t think anyone has said he’s straight. Honestly, I am not sure anyone out there thinks that. But he dates women. And most people don’t think bi exists; so to them he’s either straight, or he’s refusing to admit he’s gay.

But you know, he could just be straight. That would be OK too.

I was talking about a meme I saw that said Harry Styles was like if David Bowie was straight and also sucked. I have no comment on the music. I don’t think I know what Harry Styles sounds like.

Remember in the pandemic when there were certain foods or brands that were the last ones in the shelf? That’s Dasani. I think maybe they as minerals to it for … ‘health’ marketing? Flavor? It doesn’t taste good.

As far as buying water, power outages can affect the drinking water supply because of water treatment facilities not having power or if people are on wells. A lot of people forget you can also buy juice or soda to drink though. Of course then there’s all the people buying booze to ride out the storm too cause , well, it’s not like you’ll be driving drunk if no one is driving for two days or more (hurricanes are slow).
