Real love -- I'm, like, searchin' for that Queer Love -- LGBTQIA+ Love // A Thread for the Real Ones

A former twink with a head like a q-tip.

i like puppy dog faces and big ears i can't help it

I'd still let him fuck the shit outta me.

as for Krasinski he went through a phase when he finally hired a decent hair stylist

haha that's the spirit xp

Garfield looks like a good kisser. Sometimes you know these things.

but heathcliff has the whole package

Heathcliff
it's me
Andy
come home

so i had crushes on cartoon characters growing up? huckleberry hound. and later on, in my 20s, way past the point of acceptability for this sort of thing, i had a crush on brian from family guy :[

we just finished true detective s4 and omg the guy who plays qavvik is such a babe

rowr

Nice. I flirted with a guy at the bar with hair like his.

there really honestly isn't anyone. oh Chris Evans, yes. like if Chris Evans had chest hair forget about it.

which chris is which - the chris sandtrap

Chris Evans is the guy who accidentally released a pic of his d to the world that one time lol

Accidentally Like a Dick

the physique pictures of the 50s and 60s often captured bodybuilders and such, yes, but Mel Roberts and a few others were attracted to a different type— street toughs, men on leave (or kicked out) from the military service, hippies and dreamer types, etc. The homosociality of these worlds is well-documented, particularly in LA and San Francisco, which as major west coast ports allowed for a blossoming homosexual underground to form. Key word being underground: the world of the homosexual was also the world of the criminal class.

I agree that all of this is very clear in his work. The other thing about it, which i alluded to earlier, is that it closely resembles fashion photography. he's almost the inverse of someone like Ryan McGinley, a fashion photographer whose work resembles twink porn. How times have changed!

I first encountered McGinley through a solo exhibit of his snapshotty early fine art photography at the old Whitney, i think. it was Larry Clark-adjacent, mostly about the kind of invincibility that young people feel; the subject matter wasn't his friends and lovers themselves so much as their reckless abandonment. Like, i think it's pretty safe to say he's not making any kind of statement about how skinny white boys can be sexy, too, as though it's such a radical concept in the 21st century still (because i agree that context is important)

Shit like this otoh kinda pisses me off

like T, a-list Holywood stars are not on my radar a lot of the time. I know who Jake Gyllenhall is, of course. And Ewan McGregor. the others- ??

oh wait, I know who Paul Rudd is too
except i always get him mixed up with Paul Giamatti

i'm not a celeb guy to be real bcz i don't watch anything. probably the 10th time i've said this on ilx, but toshiro mifune is an all-timer for me. i know ilx user silby agrees on that one.

i love silby

rly don't know how i feel about McGins

i'm generally a lot more into physical culture types than actors. there's this one parkour guy i follow on insta uhh tim champion. he's really hot.

xp silby's a good poster it's true

Can't think of a celebrity i'm really hot for rn (i would say if i could!)

dating sites and apps have made me wary of mirages and cardboard cutouts, maybe that's the reason.

otoh i feel like the Moldy Peaches guy sometimes, i see a picture of a celebrity i know nothing about and wanna write a love song to the person i imagine them to be.

it helps that i don't know who anyone is.

sure you're at the pinnacle of some kind of culture industry niche but can you mine coal with a pick-axe for 8 hours and then come home and tend the garden with me is how i feel about it basically

i need another hero!

Toshiro Mifune is def my #1 male actor of all time and absolutely the most bangable

I was saying this last night to the bf! His favourite male actor is Seth Rogan, interesting choice

Respective females, his fave was Bette Davis. Idk who mine is, I’d have to really think hard on it. J Smith Cameron is up there but she’s hardly in anything

We also talked about best nepo baby actors. He said Isabella Rossellini and I said Laura Dern so tonight we’re rewatching Blue Velvet

big yes to mifune

i’ll watch barbara stanwyck or isabelle huppert in anything

love laura dern. i would definitely let her top me.

i would totally make out with Seth and propose to Betty.

I don’t know who my favorite actor is, but the famous actor whom I would let do anything/would do anything to is absolutely Keanu. Old or young. He is a smokeshow and always has been and he is also apparently a lovely person.

otm

You know he got his start in some gay Toronto theatre stuff, lots of very cute photos around of Keanu Tweeves

Bf’s bday is tomorrow. He’s a notoriously difficult person to please, gift-wise, so I elected this year to shower him with quantity rather than quality (necessarily), which is kind of more his style:

Bar of vintage No. 5 soap
Two cans of clam chowder
Witch hazel
Frankincense
A nice labradorite
A handmade silk robe (that one was $)
An old but tiny bottle of Bal a Versailles
A large bottle of Hendrick’s ltd. flavour gin
Twelve nice knobs to fancy up his IKEA dresser
A stainless steel linked ring
Smart flannel shirt
Incense and tray
Hedgehog dog toy
Cookbook (Mildred’s)
Short stories (Joy Williams)
Black soap
Barely roasted Ethiopian coffee beans
Some fancy weed

Oh and a nice jar of preserved cherries

My bf and I, we have infrequent sex, every couple weeks maybe? But I try and make it count when sex happens.

Last night I topped him so good that he was stuttering afterward, and he made me spontaneous pancakes this morning for breakfast.

I’m eating pancakes and thinking “this is the most prestigious reward a top can receive, a pancake breakfast”
