”gaytopia” is not my invention but nothing that comes up when I search for it looks familiar, so who knows where I heard it. It is very evocative!
i‘m in a book group too but i still can’t manage to keep notes.
if I could remember all the stories I’ve consumed over the years that would be amazing, but I also don’t mind repeat viewing/reading.
i am not capable of dropping stuff half-way through no matter how bad it is. If I’m not feeling it it just may end up on indefinite “hold.” Luckily, though, I can find some enjoyment in even low-quality shows.
but for the new members, that doesn’t mean I say everything is great. I do like a wide variety but I describe them differently depending on quality.
i noticed I called both Shine and 4minutes amazing but I stand by that. BOC (Be On Cloud) has produced some great shows but I think these two stand out as stellar not just as BLs but just as works of impressive storytelling. That is not to say I don’t love KinnPorsche too. All their works prove that BLs can absolutely stand up to straight shows in quality if produced with the same energy, innovation, talent, and budget. They also seem to be great at finding incredible amateur actors—and their OSTs stand out as well.
