#and are working together in this case

[zoeywades-husband]

Misogyny and homophobia can literally go hand in hand. They work together because they are products of the same system that is the patriarchy. When you have someone publicly shaming a female LI who the majority of people romancing her are queer people (queer women, non-binary people, and bi/pan men) it is going to result in a two-fold situation of misogyny and homophobia.

This is especially the case when they are tearing down a female LI to prop up a male LI. Doing it on a public platform can result in queer players feeling alienated. This shouldn’t be something that is hard to comprehend.

It’s very similar to what happened to the reaction to the Sadie scene where people calling the scene “gross” or “nasty” and leaving it at that resulted in unintentional shaming of queer players because the majority of people who romance women in the fandom are queer people. There were discussions about how misogyny and homophobia go hand in hand and how it was reflected in the Sadie situation.

The same thing goes for this situation. We can see instances of this throughout the years choices has been around where unreasonable and unfounded shaming of female LIs are a product of misogyny and homophobia that work hand in hand and alienate queer players. You guys remember all the Ava hate?

This situation isn’t a “it’s misogyny or homophobia” but it’s both. They’re working together when there’s unfounded hatred and shaming of a female LI. And saying that this argument “assumes everyone romancing Valax is queer” and “assumes there are no queer people romancing Aerin” is a weak argument to ignore how homophobia and misogyny work together that has genuine negative effects on queer people. And then to say it “derails” from the main topic of misogyny completely overlooks how these two work together. It is a situation of intersectionality here

The majority of people romancing Valax are queer and while there are obviously going to be straight men who romance her there are less of them compared to queer people because it encompasses more genders in its inclusion. Even more importantly, cishet women make up a large portion of the fanbase within the fandom and many of them assume that female LIs are for queer people. When people, especially cishet women, therefore hate and shame female LIs for invalid reasons that results in misogyny and homophobia working together

Furthermore, this isn’t about queer people romancing Aerin (I’m one of them) but about how people who only/mainly romance men and then shame female LIs publicly result in alienating queer players who romance women due to how in this case misogyny and homophobia work together.

It’s not about whether or not all people romancing Valax are queer or about how it’s solely misogyny but about how misogyny and homophobia work together that has a genuine effect on queer players in the fandom

Columbo and the Knight (1984)

put me in the universe where Columbo ran through the 1980s and had a crossover episode with Knight Rider. I think they deserved it, and I am not just saying that because they're my two favorite Old Shows. @telebeast wrote a little fanfic blurb about it and I HAD to visualize it into a comic (which is also the longest comic I have finished thus far at five pages...), so writing credit goes to them.

The lack of substantial Duke and Tim interactions is funny to me because in a lot of ways Duke is Tim's exact opposite. They have really dissimilar backgrounds; Duke's motto, 'Robin doesn't need a Batman', is a deliberate inversion of Tim's 'Batman needs a Robin'; in their introductions, Tim helps pull Batman out of a dark place, whereas Duke more or less puts an amnesiac Bruce back into a dark place. They also have wildly different opinions on basically every other Robin, particularly Dick. It's funny that even with all of their differences they have no real dynamic - they kind of just know each other. I don't think they dislike each other, but given their opposing philosophies and perspectives, I think it would be very hard for them to understand each other.

[catsharky]

Yeah I was right and there was no way I was getting the rest of this done without making you all wait another month or two, so I just went to the next good break point. We're officially past the halfway point with Astarion though, so not too much longer before you actually get to see Rolan again!

anyway i want to reiterate that i hope the rat grinders are tpk'd, revived and uncorrupted solely bc i want them to have to spend senior year together. 'redeemed' doesnt necessarily mean friendly with the bad kids and honestly? its so much funnier if they continue being bitchy to each other but without the trying to end the world stuff. they've built plenty of positive relationships w/ former villains now it's time for the next stage: uneasy alliance buzzing with the tension of both sides trying to hold back the urge to clown on each other

anyway i'm representing this through a discord meme redraw.

Post game Akechi spending any time at all with the thieves is great because it means every second around them means he experiences the soul crushing emotion of being with people who have seen you at your most embarrassing and childish. I would hide away from them all too the moment I realized I was still breathing
