heteros spend their whole lives calling everything they hate “gay” but now that actual gay ppl are using it as a fun harmless joke to describe things we enjoy it’s suddenly “not everything’s gay guys geez!!1!1!!11!” thats cool
people who put video tutorials online for literally everything are the backbone of this society i would be nowhere without the comfort that whenever i don’t know how to do something painfully simple i can look it up like i bet i could look up ‘how to preheat the oven’ and there’d be endless videos and i never have to look like a complete idiot again. thank you all for saving my life
