didn't want it perfect just wanted it done

it disturbs me that a significant number of people think that the issue with sexual violence, gendered violence, and misogyny is sexual desire rather than dehumanization, so they are relentlessly suspicious of others' (and their own) desires while simultaneously never at all interrogating others' (and their own) dehumanizing beliefs about other people, both within and outside of sexual contexts

Omnissiah Forgive Me

Chapter Two: The Custodian

“Do you…” she hesitated, and her voice creaked like a hinge as she lifted her chin, “do you have a name?” He hesitated. Not because the question was difficult. His name was still indexed, perfectly intact, despite decades of augmentation and mnemonic layering. But because names—true names—were not casually exchanged among the priesthood. To be logged was to be bound. Yet this child… this small, trembling variable in a coat far too large… had not asked as a supplicant. She had asked as a person, quiet and direct, the way only the young or the brave did. What did it cost him to answer? What would it purchase?

In the quiet aftermath of ceremony, two paths converge: one of worn steel, the other of splintered bone.

This chapter follows Kassard von Valancius in one of her most defining moments—at just six years old.

Sadly, as any cat parent can tell you, this is all too true.

editing is so funny because it's like "damn, i wrote 'before' two times within three paragraphs. they are going to stone me in the town square for this"

You should get an AO3 account

With the rise of AI and the well known epidemic of AI companies scraping Ao3 for training data most authors on Ao3 have locked down their fics to logged in users only. This is unfortunate for authors and readers. As an author I've noticed a steep drop in readership on fics restricted to logged in users and when recommending fics to my friends I've noticed that the folks without an account can't find the fics. The logged in users only toggle, not only keeps people without an account from reading a fic, but also from seeing its listing at all. More than 50% of fics I come across have this setting turned on. So, you should get an AO3 account. I know this seems daunting and unfair because it's an invite only system but, you can invite yourself through the homepage if you don't already have one, and in the past few years I've never heard of someone who requested an invitation through this method, not getting one. And for those of you who are hesitant because you don't write, that's okay. It's not weird at all to click on a commenter username and find that they have 0 works and 10,000 bookmarks. It might take a week for the invitation to actually show up, but I can almost guarantee you will get one, just keep an eye on your email. It's free to join and donations are optional. You'll have more to read if you have an account and maybe give your favorite author the chance to protect their work from AI without a loss of readership and feedback.

As someone in and around their 30’s it has been INSANE to see feminism in popular media descend through

Women can wear pants and play sports and that’s equality. Women don’t just belong inside the house. This woman has a career

This woman can be a mechanic just like a man could. She’s probably still a lesbian, though, which is basically the closest to a man a woman can *be*, and explains everything. But she’s still a person!

If a woman superhero CHOOSES to wear stilettos to fight crime, that’s girl power! This comic character written and designed by men wears a bikini and has a waist size of 12 inches because it makes her FEEL POWERFUL! Girls don’t HAVE to dress boyish to be strong! She can make you a sandwich AND be a feminist! Girl power!

What, are you saying women HAVE to do boy things to be taken seriously? Who are you to tell a woman what to do? Maybe some women NEED to get their hair and nails done twice a month to feel powerful! Maybe a lot of women WANT to be stay-at-home moms!

What I don’t think you understand is that women have an inherent feminine spirituality which guides them towards maternal and nurturing paths. Women need to honour their divine female aura to keep their. Their fuckin. Their chakras together or some shit. You should put quartz up your hooha and huff wheatgrass. Leaving manual labour and science and technology to men is natural and good for you spiritually

Uh she can’t do that, that’s a blue job, she’s a pink job girly. Food? Yeah, she’s having #girl dinner, which is a handful of almonds. Time for our 15 step skincare routine, which is empowering. Hashtag #girlboss. Ew no, touching dirt? She’s just a girl. You can’t expect a girl to do that. Haha #girl logic

you don't have to accept an entire fandom to enjoy it. fandom can be your 3 friends and a corn chip and honestly that's gonna make you much happier in the long run.

Ich kann und mag heute von nichts anderm mehr schreiben, habe auch nicht viel zu berichten. Die Hitze ist hier unerträglich und setzt mir so zu, daß ich zu jedem guten Gedanken unfähig bin, auch habe ich zwei Nächte nicht schlafen können.

i do write for attention, actually, because that's a normal reason to create art
