the tradwife movement is the same as it has always been - back in the kitchen, back to breeding - it just has better branding.
when i was younger, i hated pink. i was not like other girls. this is now something i'm embarrassed of - this was not me being a "girl's girl."
but it was expressing something many of us felt at the time: i literally wasn't what girlhood was supposed to be. this is a hard thing to explain, but you know when you're not performing girlhood correctly. it isn't as easy as "i liked x when girls liked y" - because there were other girls that liked x, too - but i never figured out exactly the correct way to like x, or to be interested in y.
now there is the divine feminine. this is the same rhetoric it has always been: women are biologically driven to like pink and ribbons and submitting to our husbands.
the problem is that the patriarchy found a better PR team. because yes, actually, i want every woman to have the choice to be a homemaker. i also want her taken seriously for her legitimate home-making labor. i want her to be recognized as also having a job, just unpaid. i want men to have this opportunity, too.
but it is no longer "i made this choice and I love it." instead it is a sixteen-paragraph rant about how selfish it is that my generation isn't having kids. instead it's long videos about how if you feed your children processed foods, you're going to kill them. instead it is "this is what womanhood is supposed to be. i feel bad for any other choices you're making."
the shame spiral is just prettier. it is large houses devoid of personality. it is the implication: if you don't have this, you aren't happy. the solid, everlasting assurance: women are actually supposed to be submitting. this is the default. this is the natural state of things. all other attempts inflict suffering.
but you can no longer say i'm not like other girls. you can no longer reject this image completely. you cannot find it revolting, even if you know that the underbelly is toxic and festering. sure, it is the same repackaged patriarchy. but the internet does not have shades of grey. you should support and reward other women! your disgust is actually internalized misogyny. not because you are seeing a vision of yourself the way they're trying to train you to be. not because you feel her ghost pass within an inch of your earlobe. not because your father will eventually ask you - why can't you be like her?
because they figured out how to make it beautiful: women will sell other women on this idea, and we will find the singular loophole in feminism. sure, she's shaming you in most of her videos. sure, she implies that a different life is obscene. but she just wants you to be happy! you'd be happier if you were listening!
and the whole time you're sitting there thinking: i'd actually just be happier if i had that kind of money.
#spilled ink#writeblr#warm up#this is an incredibly difficult idea to express#but i basically keep watching the same timelooped interaction:#someone makes tradwife content where she's like ''i think it's SO sad when ppl don't have kids EW''#and then the response is ''... go fuck yourself? i think ur life is miserable and bad ?"#and instead of being like ''oh we are all under capitalism huh''#the response is like ''you CANT say that. she made a CHOICE. she is ALLOWED to have KIDS and be HAPPY#unlike YOU who is UNHAPPY bc you don't have KIDS.''#like .... these are people who will throw the first stone. and then when you lob one back#they ask why you're so violent. they tell you that you're a bad activist.#and you're like. PARDON????? you implied being a woman meant i need to submit to my husband???#and they're like - well it's just my belief. so what if i'm invalidating your entire identity.

I want more female characters who are just so bad at comforting others. Not for lack of trying or caring, they just get so so awkward when someone's upset, and they try to repeat things they've heard even if it doesn't necessarily apply to the situation, or they accidentally say the wrong thing and make it worse. If someone cries they panic and throw every single comfort technique down at once and it only helps because it's such bizarre behaviour
This post is for all women including trans women and op loves trans women. Terfs kill yourselves
#Basically I'm tired of female characters having the inherent “good helper/wise advisor” trait just bc they're women#And I'm also tired of the faux progressive female characters who have no emotion whatsoever#People seem to think the opposite of being a good caretaker is just not caring#No no#The opposite of being a good caretaker is not knowing which care to take and when or how.#Throwing water onto an oil fire. Putting blankets over someone who is claustrophobic. Recommending family time to an orphan. Etc.#I want a female character who will be up with you until 3am because you're struggling#But she can't stop quoting Mister Rogers because she has NO idea what to say#Even if she's experienced the same things she just has no idea how to convey any wisdom through words#Etc

heres a crappy venn (??) diagram explaining the dynamics in the tl4j time travel au bc it's easier than trying to write a full plot
#tl4j time travel au#slightly longer ver is cal and ezra have 1. accepted what's happened to them and 2. know tragedy has given them an amazing found family#which they wouldnt have if everything was 'fixed'#and ezra knows from the wbw that changing the past is a Bad idea (which alongside the found family thing cal accepts n agrees w)#but ahsoka cant take her own advice and insists fixing this is Different to the Kanan thing#bc she has not accepted it the same way and her life is soo much more depressing and seeing the live republic reminds her#if she fixed the timeline she'd have her whole family back (bc rn she just has luke) and thered be so much less horrible horrible loss#and luke is the force's specialest boy so he assumes itll all work out great#its basically 'attachments + compassion for those the empire killed' vs 'attachments + acceptance of the world that exists now'#like both 'sides' are going half good jedi ideology and half attachment ig (tho cal n ezra i think have a one-up on jedi-ness of their idea#misc tag#but even tho cal n ahsoka/ ezra n luke have opposed goals theyre the only ones who understand what the other is going thru#so u get fun dynamics as shown by the diagram

anyway here's wavewave
#transformers#transformers g1#wavewave#shockwave#soundwave#deeco art#idk why this pairing tickles my brain so much#the idea of two of the decepticons' loyalest members who at first glance seem to be the same type of quiet logical no-nonsense type#but when you really look at them you start to see their differences and how they actually work well together#but also like design-wise. romance between two robots with no visible 'face' is so sexy RAAAAAGGHHH#anyway i enjoy wavewaves dynamic in any continuity#but my personal make-believe (delusional) favorite dynamic is where shocky is just an Evil Science Nerd and soundy is her sexy goth gf#Me and the Bad Bitch I Pulled by Being Autistic kind of stuff basically

the eddie kissing buck first propaganda needs to be stopped at all cost ✋I know i know, i'm probably going to be taken out back and shot several times BUT hear me out:
buck needs to get off that squeaky spinning wheel and for that he needs to be the one initiating Something -either love confession or kiss or both i'm not picky- because as my good friend Bobby (#rip) said he's always been the one going with the flow and not knowing how he even got into a relationship in the first place so him breaking that pattern is essential to his own personal growth. he hasn't initiated a first kiss on screen a single time. he's always been either caught by surprise (taylor and tommy), or been asked out on a date without necessarily expecting it (ali and natalia), and even his first date with abby mostly happened because of external pressure (hen and athena cornering them), and she ended up being the one to kiss him first later on.
and for eddie it's the opposite, he's always been the one initating pretty much everything with his love interests: calling shannon in the first place and then kissing her first, asking ana and marisol out on a date. He's always had to make that choice for himself, and buck pretty much jumped any time someone showed interest in him and only started considering his own feelings when things started to get rocky in his relationships. So them actually switching that because buck is that sure of his feelings for the first time, oh that would be so juicy, so good, so delicious.
anyway this is not me starting discourse ❌ because i hate that but just me officially campaigning (at the very last minute) for buck initiating the love confession and/or their first kiss. thank you for your consideration 🙏
#i feel like this idea probably started during s3-4 which made sense at the time and then got adopted by the fandom at large#which you know understandable#but then we got new information and new patterns and buddie kinda needs to break those patterns#because that's what their story has always more or less been leading toward#to be fair i think eddie kissing him first would work ONLY if buck gets his feelings realisation beforehand on his own#otherwise it would be a bit disappointing for them to basically give him the very same start as previous LI but what do i know#also i believe eddie's cute mouth needs to be kissed gently and softly is that so wrong? 😔#granted at this point i'll take whatever we get without any complaint when you see me cheer eddie kissing him first just look the other way#buddie#911#txt.

playing dirty
#klance#voltron#vld#keith kogane#lance mcclain#art#my art#i made this with pre-relationship in mind#but i think it could also be established relationship too#either way its funny to think keith starts weaponizing this strategy to win any arguement#also funny how my last mini comic was basically the same of like 'keith does some shit and lance goes bananas'#but in the other one it was unintentional and here its somewhat intentional#which reinforces my idea that keith KNOWS flirting like hes not oblivious. but he just avoids it#and so the times hes successful are usually unintentional#also i probably violated the rules of twister here but i frankly dont gaf and havent played it in like 16 years

the most important distinction between boba fett and jango fett is that jango fett grew up on a farm and then in a traveling mandalorian merc clan and boba fett grew up in a city sized lab and then juvie and then every gutter in the galaxy from here to nar shaddaa
#and both of them have seen way too much shit they can't unsee#jango fett#boba fett#txt#I feel like people gloss over boba's coming of age era cause it's a content void but I do think it's important to his character#gestures vaguely Something(s) happened there#teenage to early 20s boba is very fun to think about cause he's like the exoskeleton of the adult boba we see#by which I mean he's very troubled kid archetype very antagonistic hasnt really nailed down much about who he is besides the main stuff he's#already known forever#so he's basically being dragged through the alleys of the galaxy learning all these very hard lessons#and at the same time developing all these ideas about what he can be what he's going to be what he wants#there's a lot of kids floating through the gutters and a lot of them dont make it out#and boba has a lot of big advantages but there's also an explosiveness to him that is necessary to power him through all the#Trials and Tribulations and Associated Bullshit to the position that he holds comfortably later#22 year old fuck it we ball ruthless boba is the reason 37 year old still ruthless boba gets to say he's just a simple man making his way#through the galaxy#and likewise while I think most of his idealism burns off early#I think there's a lot more social self-positioning inner turmoil that burns off like a comet tail over the years#my beautiful meta characterization using like 30% of total boba fett media#I need to become a true scholar of boba fett#etc etc

Everything functions perfectly fine without you.
#undertale#deltarune#this was really experimental#i wanted to tell a bit of a story in my brain without like. actually telling it#but basically this picture is supposed to invoke the same feeling i have when playing deltarune#where i notice the lack of chara..and hwo there ISNT a gaping hole left by them#their absense doesnt effect this world at all#the drawing is meant to be a drawing done by kris i think that much is obvious#with their family. and there Isnt a big empty space where another person could go#chara really does have a world where they dont exist#and it doesnt matter.#theyre irrelevent. unknown to their family. even the fandom has mostly moved on from them#they ARENT haunting the narrative this time therye just. nothing. you dont see their putrid absense. theres nothing.#its almost so beautiful it may be intentional. everyone lumped goner kid in with the gaster followers#and it almost makes sense. but its been so clear to me the whole time that they Arent talking about gaster and it always frustrated me when#they were pushed in with them bc soething was just Off about it. bc gaster Doesnt live in a world where he doesnt exist. hes forgotten#but he did exists. the CORE exists. and he Pretty clearly exists in DR too#but chara doesnt. they are honestly the most important character in one game and then...nothing. in the next. and their family is unaffecte#there is simply a different human who gets name brand chocolates and dull knives for pie#also mild implied spoilers but the easter egg wehre you can give GK an umbrella and they note that its not raining but it makes them feel#better. listen. the idea chara lives within one world but not another and it doesnt matter. the Rain Thing in chapter four.#LISTEN TO ME LISTENNNNN TO ME#chicken scribbles

Concept thingie for fic (dp x dc)
Danny wakes up in a hospital bed with a stranger at his bedside that calls his name as soon as Danny wakes up and hugs him. The stranger then proceeds to talk to Danny like they know each other and tells them Danny’s been in a coma for 3 months. When Danny says he has no idea who the stranger is, he looks heartbroken. Eventually, the doctor comes in and tells them that Danny has amnesia due to “the accident”, and that he’s lost years (years!) of memory. The stranger, his name is Bruce and he is also apparently his fiancé tries his best to hide how hard he’s taking the news. He’s trying not to be overly familiar, but it’s clearly painful to him, and Danny feels bad about forgetting about him. It really seems like Danny has forgotten years of his life. Except, then he gets a look at the date, and it all comes crashing down. Because, according to the date, it was Jazz’s 25rd birthday yesterday. Ant the thing with that is, he remembers attending that very party himself. Yesterday.
Something is very wrong.
#dc x dp#dp x dc#bruce wayne x danny fenton (or platonic u do u)#My idea was: Bruce and Danny were investigating the same thing which is a jinn or something adjacent#Basically it pulls them both into a “perfect world” and since they got caught together they’re in the dream together#Danny’s got more resistance to the jinn magic coz he’s like a kind of supernatural creature himself and he’d got to convince Bruce#But if u guys got better ideas go for it I’m not the boss of u#Bruce wayne#danny fenton#roxpox

ER#the idea of oscar lurking like a baby shark behind max is sending me too#also the maxoscar agenda deepens#“chaos is a house of cards” said oscar piastri... probably...#oscar who is doing it like you

Elphaba & G(a)linda
#Wicked#the book the musical the movie - your pick#basically an amalgamation of all three and my own imagination of course#elphaba thropp#glinda upland#shiz version and then as their witches persona#there's always a few things that connect both versions in either shape or colour#and i went with pink for glinda and purple for elphaba at they're the same colour on different parts of the spectrum#elphaba uses purple to tone down the green of her skin#glinda uses pink to stand out#for elphaba i went with straighter lines and only in the adult version she allows in some green in her clothing#also i like the idea that she's wearing those kind of pants that look like a skirt but allows more movement#for glinda ... it's just over the top 😅#actually elphaba was way easier for me#glinda went though different versions#the dress too#i didn't want it to be too close to the other versions#I've read the book like twenty years ago but didn't follow the musical too closely#but I wanted to try drawing them and it was a lot of fun#(and yes glinda's book is upside down 😅
