#girlie is a gender neutral title

[twinkpriest]

even though i’ve been gothkid posting a whole lot recently, i must affirm that i am at my core a creek girlie. they mean everything 2 me

[actual-changeling]

another day, more zelda totk brain rot i'm sorry guys. plus eurovision finals is TONIGHT so you will see that on my dash but i will try to tag it with #eurovision or #esc cause for some reason a shitload of people decided my tlou writing is good and follow me for that. this blog was nothing but a reblog factory once i swear.

ANYWAY silhouettes my fucking problem child. i think i solved the plot issues i had with it. i know what to write. it is being written in "chapter 13 for real now" so you can guess how that process went.

[its-your-mind]

This is a call to action for all the PJO girlies (gender neutral) that I know are sleeper agents on this webbed site

Go read Trials of Apollo. Go do it. Do it right now.

I know what you’re thinking. “Tbh I didn’t love Rick’s writing towards the end of Heroes of Olympus” “There’s no Percy so why bother” “All of the Argo II crew are kinda OOC” and listen my friends. You are so valid to have those opinions. I felt the same way after Blood of Olympus. But listen to me. Look at me.

Now that you have had some time away, you must give these books another try. For me. For Uncle Rick. For the demon baby grain spirit who is only able to say his own name (Peaches).

Do not worry friends, I do not expect you to read just based on my say-so - I also provide:

A list of reasons why you (yes you) should go read the Trials of Apollo series right now gogogo:

(Spoiler warning - all broad plot things that you learn early on, but I know some people (including me) avoid that shit at all costs)

All the chapters are titled in bad haiku. Ya know that one scene in Titan’s Curse where Apollo just starts reciting apropos of nothing? That’s every chapter title. They’re all so bad it’s amazing.

Apollo is so up his own ass about everything, and it’s so cool to experience the same world through the eyes of someone who is not used to being in amongst the chaos

Oh yeah the plot. That’s a reason to read it.

Okay so

Basically Zeus continues his streak of being a shitty shit parent and decides to blame like… every bad thing that has happened on Apollo, and punish him by turning him mortal and enslaving him to a demigod girl named Meg who is a garbage gremlin with a little demon baby guard named Peaches (see above)

And like the A plot is they gotta save the oracles from shitty old Romans who wanna take over the world (stop me if you’ve heard this one before)

But like the B plot is about what it means to discover that you’ve fucked up, you’ve made mistakes, you’ve hurt people, and you gotta fucking own up to that shit

But also

You do not deserve to be punished for every horrible thing that has ever happened because of you, or even around you, and when a parental or authority figure in your life tells you that, they are an abuser and they are wrong

And yet

It can be so hard to fully separate yourself from them. Because for so long, they were all you had.

But that’s okay, because when you start to learn that the people who were supposed to care for you and love you were not actually doing that, there are people around you who will love you, who will support you, who will pick you up and hold you close and make sure you know that you are okay

And they can’t fix you

But they can give you the safe space to fix yourself

hmm that was an essay about themes and metaphors BUT THATS WHY YOU SHOULD READ IT

also there’s a wikipedia arrow who only speaks in Elizabethan prose (in all caps)

OH ALSO ALSO you get to see Will and Nico being a CUTE AS FUCK couple in the first book. Nico smiles. Also makes skeletons grow out of the ground when people annoy him. Fuck I love this little gay death boy so much.

AND. You get to see so MANY of your old friends. And they still! Get! Plot! And! Character! Development!! Even though they are only there for a little bit

OH OH OH there are two old lesbians who run a halfway house for people who are tangled up in magic shit with nowhere else to go

Did I mention Peaches? I did. He’s my favorite.

OH ALSO. This is “unreliable narrator” executed SO FUCKING WELL. Like, all narrators are unreliable. But Apollo used to be a FUCKING GOD. He has not had to deal with the reality of death all that much. He’s used to people praising his name and bowing down at his feet. But that ain’t happening!! And he is Unhappy about that!! But it also lets there be such a clear juxtaposition between what Apollo believes about himself and about the world and what is really true, which is such a wonderful way to write about recovery from trauma.

Ahem

Anyway it’s just real good Uncle Rick continues to knock it out of the park but he just did something different and we (at least I) needed some space from OG PJO fan brain before I could appreciate how fucking awesome this series is.

OH OH OH and if you like audiobooks Robbie Daymond (hello CR mutuals - yes, this is the one who is our beloved Blue Boi who we (Orym) so desperately need returned) is the audiobook narrator and he is. So fucking good. Absolutely NAILS the dramatic-ass-inner-monologue of this dramatic ass ex-deity. Also nails all the other voices as well. 15/10 audiobook narration I’m lichrally gonna go listen to other books JUST cuz he reads them.

okay why the fuck are you still here. GO. GET THESE BOOKS. If your public library does Libby you can absolutely get them on there. GO FORTH.

*blows kiss* for the Brad girlies (gender neutral)

Title: Team-Building Activities

Series: Workplace Policies and Procedures

Pairing: Loki x Mobius x Brad Wolfe x Reader

Rating: Explicit

Word count: 9,7k

Summary: Brad is turning out to be a very uncooperative prisoner. Luckily, you have some ideas on how to get around that problem.

Warnings: Rough sex, choking, misuse of TVA technology for sex purposes, edging, sub!Brad, Dom!everyone else, my particular brand of purple prose, a truly disturbing lack of proof reading.

Excerpt:

“So, what’s the plan?” you ask, making a point of eating another spoonful of pie.

“Torture!” Loki replies chipperly.

“Light torture,” Mobius corrects.

You blink, swallowing what will definitely be your last mouthful of that dreadful pie. “I suppose we could do that,” you say.

“We’ll make a show of it, work in a bit of subterfuge,” Loki explains. “It’ll definitely work.”

You nod a couple of times. “Yeah, probably... Can I make a suggestion that doesn’t involve torture?”

Mobius and Loki exchange a look. Mobius is the one to speak: “What are you thinking?”

You know how, on the NA server, Kanagi would accidentally refer to her boss at the maid café as "Sir" instead of "Madam", much to their dismay? Turns out that this was a localization-only thing.

In the original JP text, Kanagi refers to the café manager as 店長 (tenchou), which is a gender-neutral word that simply means "boss/manager/store owner". 店長 is also her boss' nametag, and NA localized that as "Cafe Manager", so why they translated Kanagi's 店長 as "Sir" to turn this into a misgendering joke is beyond me.

Kanagi: Boss?

Café Manager: I told you already! It's "Onee-sama"! [*localized as "Madam"]

It's up for interpretation whether the café owner is supposed to be read as a trans woman, a drag queen, or a man who goes by a feminine title to commit to the cutesy maid aesthetic. Regardless, the punchline in the original JP isn't that Kanagi is being rude-- far from it, in fact! It's that she keeps using the very generic, formal 店長/"boss" (which she also used for her manager at her old deli counter job) instead of the ladylike おネェさま/"onee-sama", cramping the café owner's style and kinda spoiling the girly roleplaying vibe the place is supposed to have.

hey!! this isn't the full fanfic im planning on releasing, but more of a little tester to how easily writing comes to me if that makes sense? i wrote this all in one sitting with zero proof reading so, if there's parts that make no sense/etc., that's why. it started off as another little blurb but then i got a little carried away :3

i wrote this with a pre-top trans masculine reader insert in mind, but kept descriptions relatively neutral since this is more of a focus of a pre-established relationship through the emotional lens of Leon. how he views his partner, what he does to comfort them, etc. though i do attempt to illustrate how oppressive gender dysphoria can be at points. of course not all trans people experience dysphoria, and especially not to the degree I've written, and this should be in no way used as a cover-all essay on trans masculine identity. though im drawing from the experience of some of my most dysphoric thoughts.

also i accidentally posted this a day early so, just know this piece of crap was finished 10/04/24 (today, as of official posting)

Leon Kennedy × Trans Masculine!Reader

content warnings: discussions of gender dysphoria, internalized transmisogyny experienced through an implied trans masculine lens, hurt/comfort (?), fluff, smut, Leon being a sweetheart, not proof read or edited, im actually just shitting this out to satiate the need to write. 18+ content, minors/ageless blogs/TERF/RADFEM's dni.

leon would always be there for his partner when they're feeling dysphoric. he's not the most experienced wordsmith when it comes to assuring them in this way, but reassurance through action can be just as comforting.

on those days where simply telling his partner that he sees them as the person they are, — that behind their body, there's no doubt in his mind that his partner is who they say, and who they feel they are, — isn't enough, he offers solace through action. most often, that means scooping his partner into his arms and holding them, letting them burrow against him, seeking the warmth of his presence away from the harsh glare of gender dysphoria. other times, leon takes matters into his own hands.

times where the level of their dysphoria is all encompassing, looming over them with an oppressive shadowy aura of visceral discomfort, extending beyond their minds view of their body. when dysphoria halts them from completing daily tasks they'd otherwise had no problem in doing. the odd occasion where, if the issue were to be personified, it'd take the form of a sexist, bitter and bigoted old man, waving his cane over their head and grumbling about how 'real men don't do these things' or 'if you were a real man, you wouldn't do this', 'act like this', 'think like this', be like this. eyes darkened and expression hollow, a loose, dissociated grip of the kitchen brush as dysphoria pecks away at their brain like a woodpecker of internalized transmisogyny, Leon steps up to help.

snaking his arms around his partners waist, a tender kiss against their temple as he loosely guides their hands with his own as he washes the dishes. his partner never doubted his own masculinity throughout their relationship, he knows that won't change watching him do the archaically 'female job' of washing dishes.

a display of emphasis, quietly reminding his partner that it's not the actions that make the man. it's the connection between yourself and the identifier of the title. showing that no amount of dish soap, pink button up shirts or anything frilly, prissy or societally deemed 'girly thing's would take away the man Leon knows he is.

Or the person he knows his partner is.

those small, wordless conformations to ground his partners mind back to the reality of those dysphoric thoughts, being just that. thoughts. thoughts that have no place in the world around them. thoughts of a far outdated view of what is manly and what isn't. outdated views that barely apply to cisgender men, let alone people like his partner.

other times leon let's his actions speak the comfort his words try to convey, is when he takes the time to appreciate his partners body.

it's well acknowledged that leon isn't simply the type to be in love, but more openly infatuated with his partner, especially behind closed doors. he wakes up early every morning just to admire his partners sleeping face, the beat of his heart harmonizing a rhythm of raw affection, even as his partner snores with an open, drooling mouth. their face is nothing less than the image of perfection in his mind. every lash on their eyes and healing acne scar, only captivate him further into the safety of their presence. as he does for them. not only does leon worship who his partner is as a human being, he would never withhold himself from worshipping the alter of their form. mind, body and spirit, in leons mind his partner deserves to be worshiped. and when it gets in their head that their mind and soul had been sent down to the incorrect vessel; — a mix up in their otherworldly journey, — how could he ever ignore that?

barely a second thought in his mind, leon would be laying kiss upon heated kiss to his partners lips, fingers tilting their chin to meet him at just the right angle. always beginning so tenderly, words whispered breathlessly as he showers them in praise. voice low against their lips, occasional mumbles of, "...So good...", "...God, you're amazing...", tied together with the prayer of their name, profanities hissed between Leon's teeth.

he tries his best to selfless, especially with his partner, but when he could be sent away from them for weeks at a time, how could he refuse to indulge.

his hands roam along every inch of his partners body, memorizing every dip, curve, swell and crevice. a man who craves every detail of their being. hands so familiar with weaponry and gore, now splayed across the dip in his partners waist, their bodies pressed close together, huffs of adoration caressing the skin of their neck as the muscles in their stomach tense.

it doesn't matter size or shape of his partners chest, whether untouched by the surgical precision of the scalpel or flattened, molded to the shape of their very essence, scars like the thorns of a rose. his rose; bold and beautiful, standing tall and proud against the shroud of spikes and vines that caged them in others perceptions. it doesn't matter the presentation of the flesh when attached to the person he'd give his life for. just as much a man when building Ikea furniture, as they are sitting on the couch in a blanket.

as manly as ever dripping with perspiration returning home from a walk, as they are with Leon's face between their legs. tongue savoring the taste as he tunes into every little motion and noise being offered from his partners lips, a deep chuckle bubbling in his throat at their response to his own lips wrapping around their sensitive clit. god, he could stay like this for the rest of his life. fingers in his hair as he feasts on the love of his partners body, groaning in pleasure with every pulse of their pussy beckoning his tongue further.

keying in to every signal, he only loses himself further the closed his partner is to orgasm, to invested in the task at hand to give a shit about his aching jaw. mumbling the tiniest phrases of affirmation as he hoists their thighs over his shoulder, so carried away their body ends up folded against itself atop their mattress. telling them how fucking gorgeous they are, especially with their face all scrunched up, breaths laboured as they cry out in ecstasy.

resting his head against their inner thigh, hand stroking the dull ache in his jaw, he'd stay in that same spot until his partner catches their breath, nothing short of admiration in his gaze as he stares past the mess he'd made of them.

Random ahh scenarios with Katniss (Katniss x Reader)

As title says

Reader is afraid of bugs (Gender neutral)

Just hunting out in the woods with Katniss like usual, her with her bow and arrows while you had your (weapon/item of choice.) As you rest against the tree trunk, you notice a little lime worm dangling from above. Your movements were limited, the worm was inches away from contact with you, and you had no plan on touching that thing.

"Uhh, Katniss!" You call out to her in a whisper-shout. She seems too focused on waiting for game to hear you. You decide that you handle the situation yourself, to not disturb her for a pretty dumb reason. Carefully, you scoot to the side, trying to avoid the bug, but it suddenly descended on your leg.

You couldn't help but let out a scream, watching as it moves on your lap. This triggers Katniss' survival instincts and she loads her bow as she dashed to you.

"What happened!?" She asks as you shuffle around in one spot, hoping the worm gets off-but it didn't help.

Finally, you find your words and speak. "There's a bug on me!" You point to the innocent little green thing. This causes her to chuckle and pick the worm up without hesitation. You could never understand how she doesn't find bugs gross.

"It's not gonna do you any harm." Katniss says, flicking the worm to another direction. Yay! Heroic Katniss has saved the day! Until you spot another green worm crawling up your arm. 😨

Reader is girly(?) (Femenine)

You told Katniss you owned many bows, just to play around with her.

Katniss thought you meant this bow: 🏹

But really, you meant this bow: 🎀

She was surprised since not many people she knew were into archery. On a random Thursday, you invite her over to your house after school to show off your "bows." You felt bad for exciting her, convinced she could have another archer friend. (☹️☹️)

You awkwardly display your set of bows and ribbons to her, pretty and silky. Katniss' excitement quickly drains to disappointment. (DW DW IT HAS A GOOD ENDING)

"Girl, you made me think I could have another friend who also likes archery." She tells you.

Daaaamn. Though you enjoyed keeping yourself clean and tidy, you have taken an interest in archery. Even if it's a toy, Katniss can use a toy bow and arrow at school and hit pretty accurately. She always won the bow and arrow games in gym.

"Sorry for disappointing you with the 'bows,' but archery is actually pretty cool. You should teach me sometime!" You smile, hoping it could cheer her up, and it does.

"If you can't sneak out into the woods, then we'll use a toy. Not the best, but will do." She says. "I'll teach you how to win in bow and arrow games."

Girls' Night: In or Out!

Girls’ Night, as usual on this blog, is a gender-neutral title, and I always advise my girlies- don’t date anyone you wouldn’t trust at girls’ night. I digress… This is my guide to Girls’ Nights- In, Out, and Safety Tips. Note: This is an adult POV- a post is coming for a teen sleepover, but this ain’t it!

Long post incoming!

Girls’ Nights In

Activities

Girls’ night in to me is about movies, karaoke, and questionable beverages that come in a multitude of questionable colours.

Drinking games: set one up for whatever movies you’re watching. Some suggestions of what not to do include “every time Elle wears pink” or “every time Meryl Streep sings.” You want a sensible amount of triggers… though, I mean, if you’re staying the night, you don’t need to worry about the next morning right?

Drinking Games I remember from Cheerleading Socials:

Medusa: Everyone, on one person’s call, holds their head down, and then looks up and looks at another member of the group. If you’re making eye-contact with someone, you both drink; if you’re not, you’re safe!

Who the fuck, what the fuck?: Sounds wild, but I promise it’s great. Everyone in the group creates a rhythm together by hitting their thighs and clapping in turn (but the wise will hit their chairs or the floor and not their thighs because I used to get BRUISES!). On beat, the first person will say “who the fuck, what the fuck can I get a [name] fuck?” They say the name of another person in the group, who then repeats, passing the call randomly to other people in the group. If you fall out of rhythm, you drink!

Most Likely To: I’m sure a lot of you know this one- a question is posed eg who is the most likely to kiss a stranger? And you point at the member of the group who is most likely to kiss a stranger. Whoever has the most votes has to drink.

Other Activities- drinking optional lol

Board games

Karaoke

Video games,

Photo shoot

Set a quiz

Absolutely set prizes if you can, just to add a bit of drama!

Food

I think delivery/take-out is almost obligatory, with my go-do being Chinese, Japanese, or pizza, personally, or a local fast food chain to which there is no competition BUT there’s no better group bonding activity than making food. Whether your skill level is Betty Crocker Brownies (a classic) or you’re a true Remy Ratatouille, it can be fun to bring something you made yourself.

You can do this in the style of a potluck, where all guests bring a dish, or you can pick recipes to cook together for the evening. You could try making something you’ve never tried before and doing it together!

Movies

This one is self-explanatory, and I’m sure you all have your favourites that you bust out. Personally, I’m bringing my partner into the world of girls’ nights in with Mamma Mia 1 & 2 back-to-back and following up with Grease.

Girls’ Nights Out

Drinking games that work better out:

Boat Races: get in two lines of equal length, everyone must be holding (ideally de-fizzed, formerly fizzy) alcoholic beverage, ideally of around the same amount of content. On a count down, the people at one end of the lines drinks, and the next person can’t drink until the previous person has finished, and so on until the end of the line.

Paranoia: this one works well out because its usually noisy! Someone whispers into the ear of the next person in the circle (pick a direction, left or right, but stay consistent). You ask questions such as “who would you want to live with?” or “would you kiss anyone here?” etc, and the askee says the name of one person present out loud, no context. If the person wants to know what the question was, they drink. If not, they never know.

Non- Bar Activities

Dinner- be eat a fancy restaurant or fast and cheap * Note, feasting before a night out drinking will help prevent hangovers.

Mini-golf

Bowling

Laser Tag

Theatre/Cinema

Arcade

Bingo

Ghost Tour

Escape Rooms

Variarions on Bar Activities

Karaoke bar

Pub quiz

Comedy club

Drag show

Wine tasting

drink and draw, wine and painting etc

Brewery Tour

Safety Tips

I’m sure you’ve heard the usual- take a taxi, walk in well-lit areas if you have to walk, travel in groups,and carry your keys between your fingers.

I want to encourage you all to come up with a code. You may have heard this one too, but I really want to emphasise it. My friends and I have had symbols to mean:

This guy is fine, seems harmless

This guy is giving pretty good vibes, actually

This guy is slightly creepy

This guy is Very Creepy, get me OUT of here

What I mean with “signals” is signs you can do with your fingers such as a thumbs up, waggle your pinky, or anything else that can be done clearly. If you have any issues with dexterity, try something vocal or facial, or even a tap system with a foot.

Something else to be aware of is Ask for Angela: A scheme exists in the UK in which anyone on a night out who feels unsafe can ask bar staff a phrase such as “is Angela working tonight?” Asking for Angela is used to indicate that you need help, and they can reunite you with your group, call bouncers/police, and keep you safe. Similar concepts have been used in the US under the name Angel Shot- you order an Angel Shot neat, and they’ll escort you to a car, on the rocks for them to call a taxi, or with lime in order to have the police called.

Make yourself aware of schemes that might be in operation in your area, and research if they’re well-used.

Hope you found this helpful! I'm back on my routine now that everything's sorted, so I hope you're ready for masterpost building. All suggestions are always open!

[translation note] Chapter 120 & Chapter 122

I haven't started properly comparing the official translation and the original yet, but I was curious about Chapter 120 and the bullying scene, and I noticed an important difference which also makes the context of the last few pages of Chapter 122 more obvious.

CW transphobia

The word the bullies say doesn't truly mean "crossdresser" it's "girly boy" at best and a certain transmisogynistic slur starting with S at worst, depending on the context. Now, if you fast forward 2 chapters you get this scene:

With the exception of "Absolutely asinine." which is just the translator adding a nonexistent line, the translation is okay. This is followed up by:

The translation of this line is good, but keeping everything else about Tsubaki in mind the implications are not "Umemiya only likes women" but "you're not a real woman" and that's obviously pretty different. (If a chapter titled "Sisters" didn't do it idk what will make the official translator finally refer to Tsubaki-chan as a girl,,,,,,)

And here's the original of the final scene:

Generally speaking translating "men or women" as gender neutral is the better choice most of the time, but IMO it would have been better if the translator kept it here.

[youremyheaven]

Meghan is literally soooo problematic and lied about so many things. It's literally all out there. Is she a victim of British media's insidious attacks? Absolutely. Did she also lie and manipulate? Yes. If you want to paint a one dimensional picture of her and make her a saint, that's on you. Obviously the royal family aren't angels either. They're all fcked up but if you don't see faults with Meghan's behaviour (who apparently did not know who Prince Harry was or about the Royal family at all even though she visited the fkn Buckingham palace as a kid lmao) then idk what to say to you 😬

////

nah cause literally. it’s like if anyone criticizes meghan they are a misogynist, pick me, racist for calling her out on her oWN bullshit??? and ppl comparing her to diana, bro diana would’ve not liked her 😭😭😭 ik a lot of ethnic people do not like meghan bc of the shit she pulled on a public stage and how tone deaf she sounds and dresses to events that are NOT about her 😭😭

everyone jumps on her defence but if irl someone outed your laundry out to everyone, you’d be pissed as hell too??? her victim complex really appals me (like i don’t even go to the royal fan school and stuff but it’s very clear the type of person she is 😭 harry just plain dumb) there’s even a running joke in my family that my parents r will & kate and my uncle and aunt are meg and harry cause no one likes them 💀

i like will & kate simply for the reason that they quiet as well, they do their work and LEAVE

LITERALLY 😭

Next time someone criticises my posts, imma say they're racist misogynists lmao 😂like what's this line of thinking that if a WOC did something, then she must surely be the victim ?? like did y'all forget that people of all genders and races can be messed up?? lol

Meghan's commitment to imitating Princess Diana is insane to me 😭😭 like girlie will "leave" the royal family along with her man but still wants to hold on to her royal titles and privileges?? Like why on earth do they still go by Duke & Duchess of Sussex if they hate being royals so much??? 🤔 Bc they want the privilege and none of the responsibilities.

People criticizing the "body language analysis" type videos of her, first of all half of them are just moments where SHE'S literally saying and doing fucked up shit (hates being royal unless it means being carried around on palanquins by indigenous people 😌- like did they not for a second think 🤔maybe this is a bit anachronistic and perpetuating the same colonist bullshit??) like there is nothing to analyse?? I remember the one clip of her being on stage with Will, Kate & Harry and Kate spoke about charity in a very like neutral way and Meghan literally starts talking about how SHE'S always been working with charities or something,,, like girlie will make anything and everything about herself lmao and wonder why people don't want to be around her 😭

LmFAOOOO not your uncle and aunt being Harry and Meghan 😭😂😭

Meghan and Selena's obsession with being victims and their addiction to sympathy is sooo insane and manipulative.

[meerawrites]

Hi darling, I have a few selections from the 'iwtv ask game' - 1, 7, 13, and 21, please :)

from here.

Q: When did you fall in love with the show? A: surprisingly not on the first watch, I had to sit on it awhile, and it is not because of product quality, or the cast, I love the cast, and it is well-made. I just had to dive deeper into a historical context to get it in a meaningful way finally, so... second rewatch.

Q: If you read the book, what are your favourite changes from page to screen? A: it does not make du Lac the same character/person by a long shot (which isn't necessarily bad) but, the race changes thus far, they don't feel forced and aren't ahistorical, and it emphasizes Loustat's gothic typical power imbalance even moreso. Also, just nailing it on the head how very bi Lestat is out of the gate, I love both, but Antoinette was a good adaptation choice as is the race change to adapting themes of the 1976 book to the now. (media does not exist in a bubble)

Q: What was your favourite piece of music from the first season’s OST? A: "Come to Me", "opening titles" and all the Jelly Roll Morton they included in the show, I love a good historical fiction, can you tell?

Q: What was your favourite monologue of season one? A: clearly it is due for a rewatch (again), but probably Bailey Bass Claudia's 'to beat Lestat' monologue, and I say this as a Lestat girlie (gender neutral).

Thanks for the tag, @ahoymultiships ! Remember when we (general we) like talked to each other and did tags and stuff? Honestly I'm surprised anyone voted in my outfit poll but super nice to interact with people even if the old days of community aren't a realistic goal.

Anyway, 5 songs I've been listening to:

De Selby pt 2, Hozier, because I'm a Hozier girlie and it's great even though I have no idea what the mv is about. (A thought I just had is to wonder if I identify with my gender more in this gender-neutral girl/girlie era of internet and gay culture. Like even gender neutrally, maybe exposure to language makes it more comfortable and then that transfers to more comfort in gendered ways? Although girl has always been more comfortable than woman so maybe not idk.)

So Far Away, Carole King, because I picked a title from it for this reddie fic that is not interesting but I'm really trying to finish

Thinkin Bout You, Frank Ocean

The Easy Way, Dar Williams

Betting on the Races, Chris Pureka

Just realized I never changed the title of this blog and it’s been The Girlies are Fighting this whole time... oh well, too late to change it now. Girlies can be gender neutral.
