Mikaela | 22 | they/them pronouns, she/her is fine if we’re friends
femme nonbinary lesbian
I’m a recent graduate with a BFA in theatre, mostly focusing on stage management, directing, and playwriting. I like bread, cats, baking, women, the moon, shakespeare, Star Wars, drag, plans, singing, and listing my interests
I tend to avoid engaging in tumblr discourse but here’s some things I will not budge on:
Trans women are women and have rights to spaces for wlw/lesbians
Trans men are men and don’t have rights to spaces for wlw/lesbians
Non-binary lesbians/wlw exist and have rights to spaces for wlw/lesbians
“Gold Star” rhetoric is pointless and incredibly damaging
Pronouns are separable from gender. Butches can use he/him pronouns.
People should be able to use whatever pronouns they are comfortable with
People on here still talk about the 2007 writers’ strike 14 years later, yet it’s been crickets regarding the upcoming potential IATSE strike. THIRTEEN locals might be striking, the entire entertainment industry could potentially shut down, all because studios refuse to basically give workers human rights (one of the things they are fighting for is meal breaks. MEAL BREAKS!). In fact, studios want to get rid of meal penalties entirely and DOUBLE the already substantial hours needed to qualify for healthcare. David vs Goliath in it’s finest form.
If you enjoy film and television at all, you should be standing behind IATSE. Check out @ia_stories on Instagram to read some industry horror stories and educate yourself further here.
