#in fear of losing their originality

[oreana-galena]

“There is no such thing as a new idea. It is impossible. We simply take a lot of old ideas and put them into a sort of mental kaleidoscope. We give them a turn and they make new and curious combinations. We keep on turning and making new combinations indefinitely; but they are the same old pieces of colored glass that have been in use through all the ages.” - Mark Twain

You prob won’t see this but hi! I follow you and your beautiful wife bc of your love for black women and life tips! I wanna share a story that happened yesterday where I was harassed in a gas station by an aggressive black male security guard and get nonblack poc feedback bc I no longer feel safe around black men and just curious to what advice or thoughts you have.

Last night I walked inside a pilot gas station to use the restroom where I wore a yellow camo track suit with the hood up bc I was cold. The security told me to take my hood down even tho there was no policy where I could see and followed me to the restroom door and called me out my name (I heard him thru the door), after I finished in the restroom I went to confront him at the register he was hiding behind where we got into a heated verbal exchange , I cussed him out amd I hurt his ego evidently bc he felt the need to follow me outside to escalate it but I outtalked him and got in my car. I never took my hood down. I went back in the gas station with a girlfriend for water after informing her of what happened where he then tried to make me remove my hood again and tried to encourage the women at the registers to refuse me service bc I wouldn’t remove my hood, we got into it again. He was aggressive, approached me slamming his hand on the counter, got loud, and sensitive bc I got the best of him twice verbally and in the end I still got the water and never took my hood down; the nice white lady at the register took my money from my friend who paid for it, the black woman at the register was a m@mmy. He nitpicked my outfit and physical appearance but ppl passing thru wore hoods and had pants hanging off their asses, tummy shirts, brought dogs in the store, but was never harassed like I was. I don’t have a problem following a policy but I won’t follow a policy when it’s enforced on me but no one else. So I called the police and they told me to file a complaint with corporate and see what I can do about it so I will be calling them in the morning. Did I mention the security tried to get me banned for trespassing just bc i didn’t back down and verbally whooped him?? LOLL!!! I’ll be carrying a switchblade from now on and learning to shoot a gun real soon!

Read my tags. I'm assuming you're a bw? It doesn't take all the hoodrat buffoonery Glocktavious displayed to ask someone to remove their hood. Talk to a lawyer, they'll help you go about prosecuting Dustavious the right way. So unprofessional. I hope this isn't a late response, I don't really check Tumblr lately or read every ask but yours grabbed my attention. You did the right thing! Always stand up for yourself. You're a savage for checking his ass. Never be afraid of a man, & keep a weapon on you. 👏👏👏👏Insecure, pussy "men" pick fights with women, they think being aggressive & loud intimidates you & they never prepare for a strong retort that shuts their shit down. My completely honest & straightforward unfiltered pov: We need to address the fact that the bullying of bw is a problematic behavior that is perpetuated by bm primarily (not all, but atp it's so common it might as well be). You'd be better off opening up your dating options to men outside of your race, tbh. (Be very selective & careful when itrl dating). Non-bm build their communities & protect their women. [Redacted] That's why I don't understand why some ww leave wm, who have privilege & power, for bm, who 9/10 don't have anything to offer except dick, kids & struggle love. Even when bm manage to have success it doesn't change their crusty ass mentality. I recently learned that a bw is killed by a bm every six hours. [Redacted] Bm are the only race of men who publicly bash, degrade & bully their race of women while praising, fetishizing & worshipping non-bw. But you can't expect men who hate themselves to love or value you. I see the bs bw have to deal with daily & it saddens me. I feel like they target bw cause they think it'll make them men & acceptable in the eyes of wm, it's embarrassing. [Redacted] I can't imagine treating my baby like that. [Redacted] I'll never post or reblog a "this is a safe space for everyone" post. It's not. I don't post for them. I don't want racists/colorists in my space where bw & woc tell me that they feel safe, seen & protected. I gatekeep my blog so that you're safe expressing your feelings here. I thought it was obvious since I never acknowledge bm but it needs to be said. I 100% agree with the bw advising bw to choose higher quality men. You should watch Cynthia G & Paris Milan on YouTube & other black women who cover domestic & racial topics, it's very educational & insightful, they offer a lot of perspective & I agree with so many points they make. [Redacted] The best advice I can give you is to run & never look back. Good luck. ❤️

Oohh, Spiders-Gwen with spiders plural, like with Spiders-Man? Do tell 👀👀👀

Almost exactly like that.

I've talked about it in my spiders gwen tag, but Gwen Stacy dies in my 'verse when Norman Osborn throws her into a vat of ravenously hungry radioactive spiders.

Eventually she becomes the vigilante/local cryptid Ghost Spider (she is the mask more literally than most; without the costume she can't really hold humanoid form) but the part that I think about most is the bit leading up to that "eventually".

Much has been written about the dehumanizing nature of "fridging" and post-death character flattening, and Spiders Gwen has a rare chance to understand the horror of her situation. She can feel how inhuman she is. This isn't a resurrection. Gwen Stacy the body, the potential future, the possessions and achievements, they're gone for good. All she has left is the memories and how much of Gwen's anger she still feels, and she's trying to reconstruct some sense of self with those things.

But she reconstituted so late that the funeral is over, and people have done all the revenge "for" her, and the stories people are telling about her already don't sound like the person she remembers being. People talk about her death like it belongs to them, not her. MJ and Peter have started dating already. Gwen lives in her old friends' walls for a while, just stewing in it. It's not like she could claim back any of it even if she could speak.

And like, philosophically, you can't prove she's "really" Gwen, though she's stubborn enough to refuse to admit she ever thinks about that. God, what can you even do? It's enough to make a hivemind start attacking people. Or at least get into really angry punk rock.

Empress Acina's "Intelligence should have retired you when they had the chance!" is still sticking with me after Iokath, and I think it does for many agents who would be grossly offended by such a cruel statement given what they went through which was equivalent to being retired, but Eight...Eight would let the mask slip for a second.

Oh Acina, he'd say, soft and deep with a smile bared like fangs, they already tried. Didn't you do your research?

I cannot stress this enough, but my Mastersona, Romeo Angelo, is absolutely the most DUMBEST, MISERABLE, and PATHETIC man in Chaldea. This man has mistakenly ate hemlock and his only complaint is that Tummy Hurt ): He has ate spiders and rotted food to survive AND WILL DO IT AGAIN. He constantly gets his foot stuck in buckets. His body is so weirdly magical/magic infused that he had to stop taking testosterone shots because his body automatic-ed itself to produce it instead because he hates shots SO MUCH. He is so tired. He cries a lot. He is legally (ON ACCIDENT) dead and didn't know for YEARS. He is the one man who has made Dr. Roman go insane due to being a walking Scientific Discovery. He doesn't remember his own age. He used to be married.

Any day he isn't dying is a good day and a DAMN MIRACLE

wouldn’t end up using this for the Mothiva Gets Fired thing but I’m still thinking about my vague understanding that being an idol has an upper age limit (and presuming that once you hit that you’re done no matter what). The idea that she’s close to that at the beginning of the game so on top of her other motivations, she needs to be the one to get the artifacts, to find the Sapling, because if she does she’ll be so famous that they’ll just have to keep her anyway

...Right? (quiet hysteria)
