and I realized why the wikipedia page was probably open in a tab: ~representation~ 🏳️‍🌈 [img-9-11-crying-eagle]
I was probably linked by some fuckwit on my timeline

adam's gay! that's cool, he's like the main guy
I forgot that that was the reason I'd heard about this show, so that was a nice surprise
I know I probably look like a weirdo to people who, like, whatever, you don't care about representation for whatever reason, that's fine
but just understand that this is rare
I can name two other instances where there's a gay main character who's
7) male
*) in something that's not specifically about being gay
$) not part of a large ensemble
F) unambiguously/not optionally (ie even if you didn't watch the fucking press conferences, dumbledore and lefou. and lexington. and static shock's friend richie.)
4) sometime before the final 15 minutes of the entire fucking story, korra and shiro

and I'm not talking about cartoons or even shows in general, I mean in literally anything
the two others I can think of are an indie text adventure shooter called Gun Mute, and the 1994 Northstar 4-issue limited solo series. the latter I've never read because it was a superhero comic in 1994 and therefore probably terrible, the former is not only amazing for other reasons but it was the shot in the arm that made me realize this was something I'd not been getting, and I've been fiending for a hit ever since.

If it makes you feel any better, all the characters in all my cartoons are gay...


That's pretty interesting. I thought about it for a while, but the only thing I could come up with was the movie A Single Man, which, from what I remember, was mostly about loss, grief and depression. Like, you could make that movie again with a straight character as the lead and it would pretty much be the same movie, I think.

I feel like you're going more by the letter of my hastily cobbled-together list of qualifiers than the spirit

this is actually "anna mae", a horrible and specific reference to ike turner's domestic abuse but it's fun to think about jay z rapping about anime
