Wait, what? Did I miss something?
Ellen Page came out?
Someone outed her without permission. A journalist said she was a hypocrite for staying in the closet.
Is it weird if I want her to not come out (if she is indeed gay) just to spite that “journalist”?

If a Married Lesbian Couple Saves 40 Teens from the Norway Massacre and No One Writes About it, Did it Really Happen?
amazing.
Everyone should know about this. Get it out there.
Does it matter that they were a married lesbian couple? Not really. What does matter is that they saved 40 lives. Them being gay and married is just a nice footnote.
Exactly.
Though I can’t help but think if it had been a hetero married couple we’d be hearing more about it.
Oh, shit!
Honestly though, what incredible human beings. They returned to the island four times to get people out of there.

I said something like this a few weeks back. Quinn is the real underdog. Always has been.
She really is. It certainly wasn’t intended but the very unfair treatment of her character, which started out as the crazy, lying, manipulating girlfriend, has made her sooo much more sympathetic.

There’s been an odd shift in my perception of Faberry. I now want to read fics more from Quinn’s POV than Rachel’s and it used to be the opposite.
When I follow a romantic storyline, whether it’s in a plain romance or a subplot in a Western or a mystery or a thriller, there’s just an inherent sympathy with the main character. Because there needs to be some kind of obstacle for drama, they’re portrayed as underdogs, people who the gorgeous, funny romantic interest wouldn’t necessarily go for (except they obviously always do).
And it’s interesting how that’s gone from season 1’s overly verbose, “ugly” loser getting the beautiful, popular cheerleader to what’s now the status after season 2: deeply unhappy, lost Quinn getting pretty, talented Rachel. It comes from having Rachel see Quinn have at least two mini-breakdowns (and missing a third in NYC) in season 2 alone and ending the season with Finn having picked her over Rachel. Quinn is now in the position of having to fight uphill.
It would be a more interesting turnaround if it wasn’t so sad and heavy-handed.
