Netflix Has Managed To Get Even Gayer

“Netflix has developed an impressively deep catalog of original queer content, from Sense8 to Alex Strangelove. Now the streaming giant has gayed up an old classic as well.

Season two of Anne with an E, which is based on Lucy Maude Montgomery’s 1908 novel Anne of Green Gables, cleverly reworks the story to feature five LGBTQ characters. ” Queerty

If you could, would you live in a perfect virtual reality? 📚 I am actually so excited to discuss this. I watched READY PLAYER ONE last night and gosh, it is such a beautifully made movie. It might not be as good as the book (which was my favorite book of 2016), but it has it's own charm. Spielberg is a master(and yes, I know it took me forever to watch it). 📚 But anyway, I keep thinking of The Oasis, the virtual world created by Ernest Cline where you have hundreds, thousands of worlds at your disposal, where advanced enough equipment can replicate not only what you see, but also what you touch and smell. In RPO most of the world's population is using the OASIS to play, go to school, to work. The biggest global industry. One one side, I wish The Oasis was real because gosh, can you imagine having that? But on the other hand, I am glad (not exactly) it isn't because I know myself. I know that I would only leave The Oasis to eat and sleep and go to the bathroom. And even then begrudgingly. And I know some of you will say: but James, no matter how wonderful it is, it is not real. But what is real? We perceive the world around us with our senses. And the technology in the book does exactly that, fooling every sense. I guess it depends on how happy you are with what you have. But maybe not. No matter how happy you would be, you can't deny the appeal: you could look any way want, you could ride the Millennium Falcon or actually attend Hogwarts or fight orcs or travel the entire world without having to leave your room. 📚 It just hit me again how boring our world is. Lemme go in a corner and cry.😂 📑 📑 📑 #bookstagram #goodreads #bookmaniac #読書好きな人と繋がりたい #lectura #cititoripasionati #books #booknerd #nerdherd #mystyle #bookpile #shelfie #littlethingsinlife #thatsdarling #momentslikethese #abmhappylife #bookishfeatures #ilovebooks #writer #philosophy #kitapsever #libros #livros

This Hunky Guy Uses Books to Create Amazing, Nerdtastic Art on His Instagram

“John Waters once said, “If you go home with somebody, and they don’t have books, don’t fuck ’em!” Thankfully, James Trevino definitely won’t have that problem — he’s got a collection of over 1,100 books. And he does something amazing with them (besides read them): He makes book art for his Instagram.” Hornet
