the straight people talking about james flint vs gay people talking about james flint thing really is something in general but there’s also a specific hilarity to how many grown ass cishet white dudes (journalists, actors, but also characters within the show etc) are out there like ‘james flint is a terrifying and ambiguous figure and i’m scared of him’ while hundreds of baby and 20 something lesbians on the web are like ‘james flint is my loving dad and i would protect him and his gay manifesto with my life’
I was once a slave. I know too well the pain of the yoke on my shoulders, and of the freedom of having cast it off. So I’m resolved, I will be no slave again. And as I am free, I hereby claim the same for Nassau. She is free today, and so long as I draw breath, she shall remain free.
