It's Time We Let James Dean Be the Lgbtq+ Icon He Is
Late in the evening on September 30, 1955, screenwriter William Bast sat at his typewriter in his cramped L.A. apartment surrounded by suitcases, banging out a movie outline. The next morning, he planned to carry those suitcases out to Sherman Oaks, where James Dean, his leading friend and onetime significant other, had invited him to move in together in a large rented residence. As Bast told the story decades later, after a long, confusing courtship, full of starts and stops, denials and doubts, Dean wanted them to live together as partners and lovers, not just as friends. Around sunset, the phone rang with the news that Dean, just 24, was dead—killed when his Porsche collided with another car in the California desert. Bast dropped the phone and fell out of his chair, blacking out at the news. For half a century after, he carefully guarded Dean’s reputation, forcefully denying increasingly insistent rumors about the sexuality of the most renowned movie star in the world and the idol of millions. In death, Dean would become the perfect celebrity—a silent one—onto whom generations could proposal their fantasies and themselves.

FAS Dean Gay Says Harvard Planning for ‘Full Return’ in Fall 2021
Faculty of Arts and Sciences Dean Claudine Gay said in a Friday interview that Harvard is currently planning for fall 2021 with the “overriding goal” of “charting a path to a full return for our students, our faculty, and staff.”
Gay said she is eager for Harvard to regain its “campus-based identity,” and she hopes fall 2021 will enclose “as much in-person knowledge as possible” for undergraduates.
Gay acknowledged, however, that despite the “positive a position of trends” in regard to reduced Covid-19 spread on campus this spring, she foresees that “there might be some create of the pandemic still with us” in the fall.
“I’ve been really pleased by on-campus conditions this spring, and we own yet another day of no new infections,” Queer said. “But what I will say is that any planning that we pursue has to develop in flexibility because, again, one of the challenges of the pandemic is its unpredictable course and our need to pivot more than once in order to continue to put health and shelter first while also preserving and advancing our academic enterprise.”

And like you don’t just put that in an episode and make it a major gag for no reason whatsoever appreciate there’s probably a reason these gay things never happen to Sam?
Exactly, they only happen to Dean. Ever. They’re also getting increasingly more abundant — and more blatant — as we progress further into this season. Just last episode, Dean gave the same flirty smirk to both a chick and a man in the memories Abaddon was shown. I thought it was weird that Dean randomly turned to the punk girl, who you’d reflect wouldn’t be his type at all, and smiled flirtatiously at her. But if it had been a woman we’d predict Dean to be attracted to, then it would have felt too innate and typical within the context of the scene to hold any significance. I think it was supposed to be strange so that it would stand out, and viewers would be likelier to connect it back to the motel clerk. They might think, ‘Hey, didn’t he do the identical thing to that guy?’ and realize that, yes, Dean gave the similar expression to a bloke. And then the very next week, we receive this? A man coming onto Dean, Dean not rejecting him but rather getting flustered, and then seeming genuinely disappointed when he f
