The Invisible Queer

 Heyo! Hope you're doing well! The last time I made a post like this was 2018 and let me just say a lot has changed. A lot! If you want to see the last post, you can find it here . I also created a playlist of my favorite songs from the people on this list, so check it out ! 10. Taron Egerton Taron Egerton is more known for his acting than his singing, but in three of his roles, he sang on the film's soundtrack. Those films are Eddie the Eagle, Sing, and Rocketman. There are quite a few songs that I wanted to include, but per past Top Singer posts, I chose one: "Saturday Night's Alright (For Fighting)" from Rocketman where Taron portrayed Elton John. His voice is absolutely amazing. I don't think anyone else could have played Elton John as well as he did. Not only is Taron Egerton one of my favorite singers, but he is also one of my favorite actors. If you are unfamiliar with his work, I highly recommend watching pretty much any film he's been in, no matte...

Happy Valentine's Day! I'm single as a pringle and I have never celebrated this holiday in my nearly 24 years of life. SO I am going to write about the Saint Valentine's Day Massacre in 1929. This one goes out to all my single people. I have decided not to include photos of the actual massacre in this post, but you can easily find them with a quick Google search. Today's post is going up a little later than normal, but I wanted to post it around the time of the actual murder 92 years ago. On 14 February 1929, five men were murdered in a Chicago garage. The victims were Albert Kachellek (alias James Clark), Adam Heyer, Albert Weinshank, Frank and Peter Gusenberg, Reinhardt H. Schwimmer, and John May. Five were members of the North Side Gang and two were affiliates. They were allegedly gunned down by four men with two Thompson submachine guns and two shotguns. Two of the gunmen were dressed as police officers and the other two wore suits, overcoats, and hats. Talk about t...

 Heyo! I want to do a quick check-in! Firstly to say thank you for supporting my blog. The constant support I've been getting on each post has been very encouraging. It means the world to me and I can't put into words how happy I am that people actually take time out to read what I write. Third grade me would be proud. Also want to know what's your opinion on my posting schedule! It looks like three posts a week is what the next few months are going to look like. Here is a breakdown of the weekly schedule. Sunday - That Time... Wednesday - Random topic, occasional housekeeping/updates, or a fictional writing piece Friday - Fangirl Friday (Formerly known as "Casual Screaming") I always post at 6:30pm NY time. If something comes up and I am not able to post, or you want any quick update on my blog, I almost always will Tweet   and post on Tumblr  about it, so feel free to follow me on either platform! If you have any suggestions for topics you'd like me to cover...

 Heyo! I hope you're doing well. I still want to keep this blog free of politics, but this is a momentous thing that happened, in the United States, so I thought I'd write about it. This will not include any of my personal political beliefs. It won't be a long post. If you have been living under a rock, or outside of the United States, 2020 was an election year and we elected Joe Biden - former Vice-President. His election is nothing new. We've had a long line of old white dudes in the Oval Office since the beginning. The only time anything changed was when Barack Obama was our first black President. We inaugurated Joe Biden on Wednesday, January 20, 2021. However, this post is not about him. This post is about his choice for Vice-President, Kamala Harris. Why? She is this country's first female Vice-President. Not only is she a woman, but she is black and Indian. Something my mom also pointed out is that she is married to a Jewish guy which means we have an interra...

 Heyo! It's been months since my last "Fangirl Friday" and I want to bring it back as a weekly series. So why not restart the series with one of the biggest icons: Taika Waititi? If you don't know who Taika Waititi is, have you been living under a rock? He is an absolute icon. I know that doesn't say much, so let me just say; he is a New Zealand filmmaker. Not just any filmmaker, one of the best of our current era. The man is a visionary. Let me start where I found out and fell in love with him. As you may or may not know, I am a casual Marvel fan. I've been following the MCU since the first Iron Man came out. However, Thor's films were some of my least favorite of the stand-alone films. I only watched Thor: Ragnarok initially because of Cate Blanchett, Karl Urban, Jeff Goldblum, Idris Elba, and Tom Hiddleston. This was the first work of Taika that I experience, and after the first viewing, I'll admit, I did not like it. It was a bit too comedic for my...

 Yes, you read that right. On my blog, where I usually just write about entertainment or fun history stories, I am talking about current events for once. This is a more serious post than we're used to here on my blog, but I feel like I can no longer be silent about this. There will not be any photos, so it'll be a lot of text. I am sorry. Let me start by disclaiming that this will not be your regular "x people have died from COVID" article. This is all me speaking from experience. My personal experience. In July 2020, COVID affected my family. The six of us had to legitimately quarantine inside our house for almost a month. However, only my parents, sister-in-law, and I had symptoms. Fortunately, both of my brothers were untouched. Fortunately, everyone in my family is alive and doing well! But few families are as lucky as we are. My mother is a delivery driver for several apps. We believe she was our patient zero and brought the virus to us since she was the first on...
