everyone is deleting the caption to this but this work is called “perfect lovers” by the gay artist felix gonzalez-torres. the piece is about the illness and death of his HIV-positive partner ross laycock:

For Untitled (Perfect Lovers) (1991), he synchronized two industrial clocks placed side by side. Inevitably, because batteries fail and things tend toward entropy, the clocks would slowly begin to advance at differing rates, out of sync, having moved, however briefly, perfectly together. (x)

This is one of my favorite pieces

6 Gay Romance Movies That Won’t Make You Want To Die*

*Basically I’m seeing all these Very Hetero lists for Valentine’s Day, but I also know how hard it can be to find non-soul crushing gay romance films so:

Desert Hearts (1985) – A free spirit seduces a shy older professor in 1950′s Reno. Ground-breaking at the time (and now tbh) for giving two lesbians a happy ending. 

My Beautiful Laundrette (1985) – A Pakistani young man in London inherits a run-down laundromat and sets out to spruce with up with the help of his boyfriend. The couple faces various threats of a Thatcher-era society, but are ultimately happy in the end. 

But I’m A Cheerleader (1999) – This is rightfully on almost every queer film list I come across and a necessary staple. It’s about, you guessed it, a cheerleader, who is sent to a conversion camp and falls in love with one of her camp mates. 

Imagine Me & You (2005) – A newlywed falls in love with the girl who did the flowers for her wedding.This obviously isn’t a masterpiece or anything but the two leads are so cute and you’ll have a great time.

The Way He Looks (2014) – A blind teenager gains feelings for his new best friend at school. It’s a small gem that makes me crave more simple, sweet, gay teen romances with happy endings and belle & sebastian songs. 

Carol (2015) – …It’s Carol, y’all. I mean come on. Carol.
