you'll say yoo sangah is a mom friend all day but not talk at all about lee sookyung's character. ok.

honestly you all are so annoying because motherhood IS interesting but fandom people are simultaneously obsessed with deciding that every woman has motherly qualities and completely disinterested in actually exploring motherhood as a role that informs a character. I do think exploring a character being a mother can be wildly interesting if they are canonically one, but because of misogyny, people just view motherhood as a totally unremarkable naturalized state that all women must inhabit!

alphys should NOT be a mother in any circumstance. she should be at the club. the anime club.

🗣️🗣️🗣️ WHY ARE YOU ALL SO KEEN ON MAKING EVERY WOMAN A MOM. SHE WOULD NOT BE GOOD AT IT OR PARTICULARLY ENJOY IT

The sick reality is that many of the renowned academics and writers among Gaza's thousands of martyrs will, in twenty years time, be quoted and memorialised by the same universities and institutions that have denigrated them and enabled their slaughter.

Things i learned as a child that probably no one intended to teach me

To grown-ups, being bad at stuff is a sin. Forgetting stuff is the worst sin of all, and also doesn’t exist - it is widely believed (and your behaviour will be interpreted thusly) that in some Freudian sense, it is impossible to forget things if you care about them or their consequences or the people who care about those things.

Your being happy and enjoying what you do doesn’t matter. All that matters is whether you are Fulfilling Your Potential.

Human beings do not require rest outside of sleep. Thinking that you do is called ‘being lazy’.

Who you show physical affection to is a matter of politeness and social protocol, and has nothing to do with your own desires

It is rude to inform people of your preferences, even if they seem to care about catering to them and therefore might find this useful information.

Etiquette centres around doing things in especially awkward, skilful and time-consuming ways in order to demonstrate superiority over people who aren’t able to keep up.

love that whenever kim dokja is away han sooyoung gets lonely and angry and bereft and starts killing people because it's her self-appointed task to dispose of problems nobody else wants to solve. she's an outsider from the way that everyone else who loves kdj grieves and it pisses her off because she's locked outside of viewing him the same way others do! she feels that only she knows the "truth" about kdj (the side of him that is annoying and self-important and knows about reading) and therefore can't feel as fondly towards him as everyone else. she is more "evil." their relationship is more "evil." and yet... he was the one who understood her. and so she misses him. and it PISSES HER OFF

I should reread the hunger games honestly. It's been like a decade probably
