And yes, I see the cruel irony of putting Stamets over Spacey.

My jaw is still dropped.
I love that he just is, without explanation or apology. That's really what Start Trek is about
Trek being a window to humanity looking beyond it's own bigotry and selfishness is it's biggest appeal to me. The build up has been incremental and a reflection of our own progress over the decades. Quite a ways to go, of course, but at least for a while things have been looking up.
Another reason I loved the show Schitt's Creek. David (pansexual) just was, and everyone just accepted it. Again, no explanation or apology. It was charming as hell.
Someday, I'd love to hear that story
I'm out of town this weekend, so will read when I get back
Anthony Rapp is a goddamn hero. Even just coming forward, being visible, thriving, are all heroic acts in my opinion. Although, it’s not necessarily something you’d want to be known as a hero for.
Also, RE: Spacey’s coming out. I think it goes a few layers deeper. It felt like he was trying to garner the support of the LGBT community in a very “Look they’re accusing me of being a pedophile. But, I’m gay! And we all know that’s the reason they’re saying I did this, right friends?”. When that happened, I looked up his accuser and found Anthony Rapp, an openly gay man. I immediately wrote Spacey off then and there.
My jaw is collapsing into a neutron star
