How bad ass is George Takei <3
Joker from DC Comics
A.K.A Harley’s Joker, he’s seemingly the most well-known Joker Cosplayer in the world. Not much is needed to be said. He simply puts smiles on our faces.
PSA of the Day: Gays Beware
Actors Jesse Tyler Ferguson and George Takei address how to deal with homophobic neighbors in this delightful parody of the 1961 short propaganda film Boys Beware brought to you by Funny or Die.
I would gay marry George Takei so fucking fast you don’t even know.
Thank you, George Takei, for being so consistently brave, thoughtful, and tireless in your pursuit of human awesomeness. We all need to learn the Takei way of life.
While I am not pleased with the meme that homophobes are all or mostly closeted gay people, this is spot on and I want to kiss George Takei on the mouth. <3
STAHP
NO
THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE SIR
I’ve enjoyed watching Patrick Stewart’s give-a-fucks slowly slip away over the years.
SCREAMING
john waters please never die just keep saying weird things to confused journalists forever
He is like the crazy-ass guardian angel for all angry non-conforming queers everywhere. Bless him.
New ITV sitcom Vicious (x)
*sounds of crying and wimpering*
So…..Ian McKellan stars in a show about a couple who have apparently been together since the ’60s and argue all the time.
How is the other guy not Patrick Stewart? That can’t be legal.
I can’t stop laughing because they are both holding the teacup
I remember some interview the two of them gave years ago, how it turned out that when they were baby actors in their 20s they both had ENORMOUS crushes on the other one, but were too shy/closeted at the time to say anything.
SO THIS IS BASICALLY THEM WRITING RPF FANFIC ABOUT THEMSELVES, OKAY, AND IT’S BEAUTIFUL
I want to see this.
Okay, I had to reblog for the new enormous crushes part. MY PRECIOUS BABIES.
He’s the biggest 5-year-old.
Reblogging again because I added yet another gif.
I’m so in love with this man.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY YOU ADORABLE LITTLE FUCKER.
Huh. RDJ’s birthday is my half-birthday, and vice versa.
I was also born the day Graham Chapman died, for the record. (I have an alibi, I was still in the womb at his time of death.)
Happy birthday, RDJ!
tw: they talk about the t-word in depth, without censoring.
Here is a wonderful positive video with Janet Mock and Isis King. Two beautiful transwomen of color who are in the entertainment industry. Here they are having a conversation about transwomen in the media. Harmony Santana and Laverne Cox, two more transwomen of color, both make an appearance.
So lovely. I have the hugest crush on Janet Mock.
FUCK YES.

Yessss!

I heard my coworkers at Basic Rights Oregon say they are trying to recruit Janet Mock to speak for our ballot initiative event! I WILL DIE IF I SEE HER. I WILL JUST DIE. She made the only “It Gets Better” video for trans people that I’ve ever seen, and it was so good to finally feel like someone understood my level of misery at that time.
