(Feel a little uncomfortable and guilty about posting silly television entries in the wake of recent events. You know, self, you're allowed to enjoy things, even when times are sad. In fact, that's exactly the time you need things to enjoy.)
I try to avoid spoilers, but A Certain Event in the promo for the next episode of Glee has half the fandom

Though I am totally expecting it to all end up in some kind of bisexual erasure, but on the plus side I expect I will angrily enjoy said erasure as much as I enjoyed seething in horror at the Very Special Religious episode.
Now back to cackling: HAHAHAHAA

I have to admit that I'm not terribly optimistic about Glee's ability to sensitively handle a bisexuality storyline. BUT BLAINE KISSES A GIRL, SO I'M GOING TO LOVE IT ANYWAY. I'm such a traitor to my principles.
Your Princess Sam icon continues to be delightful.

Also I agree with you about the whole kissing outside of your orientation thing. It definitely makes it hotter.

I can't even express how glad I am to hear that I'm not the only one. I was a little afraid that I'd post this entry and everyone would just go 'what is wrong with your brain?'

It's problematic because I have other people on my flist who feel very strongly that you can't reverse slash either a character or a real person because there are so few out famous people or out characters. And I get that, I really do, and it's not something I've done, but yet ... I'm interested in people doing things they might not ordinarily do. I also think that orientation is not the same as action, you know? You can identify as a lesbian and fuck a man on occasion, and the reason we reject that is that lesbians aren't often taken seriously as it is.

Haha, oh my god, When I Get You Alone. It was hilarious, even though the second-hand embarrassment nearly killed me. And, honestly, that's kind of exactly what I expect to happen with the next episode as well. :D

...all right, I can't really deny it. Glee fandom in general seems to be quite intense and scary much of the time. I suppose it might be a first fandom for many people, which could be a contributing factor.
'When I Get You Alone' simultaneously cracks me up and makes me cringe out of my skin. I love the 'oh God he's actually singing it' expressions at the 'you can keep your toys in the drawer tonight' line.

Yeah, it does remind me a bit of my Harry Potter days, when I occasionally made the mistake of taking it seriously.
Kurt's bitchface is the best part of that episode, seriously. :D The incredulous look when Blaine talks about the 50% discount, oh my god.

If I even thought I had a remote chance of doing a story with them justice, even on a !crack level, I'd be writing it now. Unfortunately, I'm just not confident enough to try.

...I wouldn't like it because it would cause Kurt so much emotional distress
oh good God I'm such a sap
(Like a lot of American shows of my experience, Glee does have a habit of unashamedly and unapologetically allowing its characters to trample on each other's feelings without any visible consequences. Exhibit A would be HOW MUCH OF A DICK FINN IS.)
...well, I'm now thoroughly embarrassed :( I CAN'T ENJOY ANY KINK IF I KNOW IT IS HURTING SOMEONE. AT THIS RATE PEOPLE ARE GOING TO START THINKING I'M NICE OR SOMETHING.
