They’re deactivated now and I really hope they are okay, but my nihilism is telling me something else. :(
nah i just changed urls a few times. i came out and transitioned, graduated college, and got an amazing girlfriend who lights up my life. i had to delete the queued update to this post that said 8400 days for my 23rd birthday because i’m in a really good place right now.
to everyone struggling: it really does get better.
(or, the joke i’ve been waiting my whole life for)
[Image ID: five gifs of Pavitr Prabhakar sitting at a table with a cup of chai in Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse:
GIF 1: Pavitr sitting at the table with an elderly South Asian woman smiling at him as she pours chai from a kettle into a cup. Pavitr narrates, “Quick break for a cup of chai with my Maya Aunty.”
GIF 2: Pavitr sitting across from Miles Morales in his Spider suit, Maya Aunty’s yellow scarf now draped around his neck. Miles is pouring the tea as he enthusiastically says, “I love chai tea.” Pavitr, in the middle of taking a sip, double-takes and slowly asks, “What did you just say?”
GIF 3: Pavitr enunciating Miles’ words as he sets his cup down between them, gesturing to it with a frustrated hand. Miles looks at him with wide eyes as he continues pouring chai into his cup. The subtitle reads, “Chai tea? Chai means tea, bro.”
GIF 4: A continuation of the previous gif, Pavir gesticulating wildly as he leans in, propping his forearms on the table as he says, “You’re saying tea-tea. Would I ask you for a coffee-coffee with room for cream-cream?” All the while, Miles’ cup is now overflowing with tea.
GIF 5: Pavitr giving Miles a deadpan look across the table, while Miles realizes his misstep and straightens for a minute before he slumps in apology. He continues to pour the chai, now dribbling over his end of the table. The subtitle reads, “Oh! No.”
I’m Gonna Be (500 miles) is honestly just such a pure, solid good song. The lyrics are cute af and actually resemble a long-term committed and happy relationship and to top it all off you can scream ‘DAHDADADA’ and the top of your lungs in a pub and someone will scream it back to you.
