#it’s both disheartening

Before Islam, Arabs worshipped multiple female goddesses. These goddesses represented many things, including fertility and unbridled female sexuality. Many Arab tribes were matrilineal AND practiced matrilocality. Even the pedophile M*hammad’s own background is an example of women’s superior status before Islam: Khadijas independence and success as a businesswoman, his living with his moms family and not his fathers, and more.

After gaining momentum as a false prophet, M*hammad completely disregarded the Arabs respect of women and instead preached a completely different patriarchal ideology. He ordered the destruction of the temples of the main goddesses (Al-Lat and Manat) when he had the tribes under siege.

Islam was spread through the sword. Civilization was stolen forcefully. Don’t ever believe the lie that Arabs were ignorant and misogynistic prior to the bullshit of Islam. I know Muslims like to spew their bullshit of female infanticide and shit like that, but there is absolutely NO PROOF of that happening (in addition to the fact that it’s illogical and retarded).

That’s all.

Patalliro! is fascinating to me because of stuff like this. It's unapologetically gay - even within its anime which aired during primetime hours in 1982 - in a way that many later BL manga would never be, like the ones from the early 2000s which would never dare to call their characters actual homosexuals. Patalliro has actually aged quite well in this regard, there's something comforting about how campy it is.

its really starting to bother me that theres so little to be done for karlach in act 3. like when you first meet dammon he seems so hopeful about finding a solution. he runs through a bunch of ideas and says he cant do anything with the tools he has but he'll keep looking. and then when you meet him in act 2 hes says he cant think of anything but he'll keep trying. and then in act 3?? all he says is that he cant find a solution. theres no way to ask him what research hes been doing. no way to try and do any research yourself.

karlach's companion quest basically ends in act 2. you get that second upgrade and it doesn't make a difference to the way her endings turn out. yeah you can touch her, but that's it. theres still only two 'good' endings for her character.

and it feels like theres so much we should be trying to do? the steel watchers are made of infernal iron. every single watcher has a piece of infernal iron you can collect. some of them even have enriched infernal iron. and apart from the armor dammon can make... there's nothing else to be done with those pieces? even the enriched infernal iron doesnt seem to serve a bigger purpose.

i feel like i should be able to talk to the gondian gnomes for help. they built the steel watchers, which are made of infernal iron and can blast hellfire at you. we can literally go to hell and theres no way to look around or ask about a solution. theres a magic tower with a locked vault and no way to look for magic to nullify/contain the heat.

also we cant talk to karlach about going to stay in the house of hope? i know one of the endings is that she can go to avernus with wyll but shouldn't we be able to suggest she can stay with hope? who's literally trying to make a place of hope in the middle of the hells? theres even portals in one of the rooms to a bunch of places. she could come and go as she pleases. we already have the means to visit if we want.

like i get it the whole point is that shes doomed from the start tragedy etc etc but it still sucks that we can't at least try to do more when it feels like theres so many ways we should be able to

if I’m honest I’m kind of baffled that there’s anti-voting content going around. again. you cannot have forgotten so quickly how bad trump was and how hard the republicans tried to prevent you from voting. did you forget the russian bots??

i think part of the issue in this whole "was season 2 good or bad writing" debacle is that we didn't expect there to be a season 2. no one did. season 1 was It. you had season 1, the book, and the radio drama (and well. the movie script/play audio if you knew where to ah. look)

so.... it allowed for everyone to make their own version of events that would happen afterwards and not leave any room for "well maybe this will get changed later so i shouldn't hold onto it". everyone got to become soooooo entrenched in whatever Their version of the characters were and how they thought things might happen and how they would behave and act

so when s2 happened and it Didn't end up w them living in the south downs and behaving exactly as everyone had inferred they would from their version of s1 and introduced a New storyline for the first time in 30 years......... ofc some people did not like that at all and saw it as bad writing. esp if you were a book fan before the show because these are characters with a very specific limited storyline they were attached to for years, sometimes decades

like i get being disappointed. it's just v unfortunate bc none of us had really allowed room in our imaginations for a season 2 so we got to build everything off a story that had already been written for 30 years, not having to care about the continuation of that story from the author bc we didn't think we'd ever get it

anybody else really disappointed in ezra furman

[aziraphale-protection-squad]

right. so. i'm taking the angel and i'm wrapping him in a soft blanket and i'm telling him that NO ONE has the right to touch him without his consent.

no matter how well they know each other and got along previously.

or how angsty the person feels about possibly never seeing him again.

or how much Aziraphale might even possibly WANT to be intimate with that person on some level, someday, when they're okay again.

there are no ways around this:

if he's not READY for it, or if he's not in the MOOD for a kiss, then NO ONE SHOULD BE KISSING HIM. PERIOD.
