the real test to indecisiveness is whether a person a bisexual not.

Me, a young woman who sees another woman doing something so wrong when it comes to driving that it makes me question my existence as I stare and start to think; “this is why we were never allowed to do anything aside from stay inside and take care of the house. No wonder I like guys. Why isn’t everyone just attracted to guys? They can build, lift heavy machinery, and we just watch them and look pretty for them. This is awesome! This is why I like men! And penises!!”

Also me, when I see a man just being a man and doing something so unbelievably stupid that it makes me wonder how in the absolute f*ck Adam didn’t die the second God made man; “this is why I like vagina. How can we put our faith in guys when they can’t even do one simple thing right? This is why women should rule the world and guys should just leave. Why isn’t everyone attracted to women? I mean, we got boobs and vagina’s and boobs. This is why I like women!”

Thank you, for attending my Tedtalk!🥂

I get the importance of showing that high school friends grow apart, I do. And I realize that the likelihood that the bad kids are going to go their separate ways become realer and realer every day. A lot of people don’t want a cheesy forced “and they all lived happily ever after”. But like they’re the bad kids? And a continuing theme of Spyre is real scary stuff can happen but there is also tons of silly and goofy stuff that can happen too. Zac even mentioned that in his featurette. So maybe fuck realism just this once? I want a stupid happily ever after with all of the bad kids together.

In real life, the traddest men I know: change diapers; do chores; are present and playful with their kids; take good care of their wives; work 50+ hours a week to provide for their families; literally never think about the 1950s.

How in the hell did you people see these two in the pilot and not think they would make an adorable couple?

[ohburrryoureabsolutelyridiculous]

Nobody asked for it, but I’m going to also jump in & just say that I don’t care about Joseph Quinn & Doja Cat being whatever they are.

Their being together, not together, friends, friends with bennies, is not going to affect my life negatively or positively in any way shape or form, & it shouldn’t affect yours either.

Being disappointed is one thing, but some of the most disparaging things have been said about Joseph in the past 24 hours from his supposed fans. It’s very disheartening, disappointing & honestly disrespectful how quickly some flipped on him when you swear y’all love him so much.

If you want to stop being a fan, that’s fine, but you don’t have to disparage his name on your way out the door for him being a human being & trying to live his life & connect with other human beings. It’s nobodies business who he chooses to spend his time with or why.

He doesn’t owe anyone anything. Just because you watch his shows and movies or pay to meet him at a con doesn’t mean he owes anyone anything.

You have his gratitude. You have him agreeing to more projects that you can possibly enjoy, that’s enough.

You don’t know him. You don’t know what he thinks or feels. What you see from interviews & cons is what he wants you to see. How you interpret that is entirely YOUR take on things but when it comes down to it, you don’t know him.

Let him make mistakes. Let him live HIS life.

Life is too short & there’s already so much negativity in this world outside the four corners of our cellphones & laptops.

Literally none of this matters or changes anything.

In conclusion I leave you with a few words I think need to be remembered & should sound a bit familiar: “the more we respect each other, we can cultivate a kinder, more inclusive collaborative environment. For everyone. Wouldn’t that be nice?”

I’ve gotta admit as much as I know Darabella is a flawed ship (and some of the ppl who are anti for it have legit criticisms I love y’all for pointing it out cause it frustrates the hell out of me too trust) they’ll always just kind of be it for me.

Because as much as it was an “I can fix him” trope, as much as Rosabella could be selfish and Daring’s flaws got cranked up to 1000, she was also the first person to look at him after his destiny, the thing he dedicated his life to, failed, when people were questioning him as a prince and putting pressure on his and Apple’s relationship and tell him that, like, maybe it would be alright? Maybe this wasn’t his destiny, and maybe that was okay.

And the part that really gets me? She’s the first person after this happens to tell him that it doesn’t matter what’s on the outside, which as much as you can like other Daring ships or him whatever he desperately needed to hear. Not even cause he was selfish, that’s not what I’m saying, but bc he placed his whole identity on this image that people concocted for him based on him appearing the perfect prince. He was handsome, he was talented, and he was handsome! So who cares about him as a person?

Idk man. You spend four seasons (I watch the specials on Netflix so that’s why four idk if it’s three to some ppl or whatever tho) watching him be praised for his looks, watching girls fawn over him, and of course he enjoys it so nobody really questions how much he enjoys it. And then you get this girl, this girl who owes him nothing, this girl who (contrary to popular belief apparently) has a life of her own and people she cares about outside of him, and she’s nice to him. And she’s the first person after everything happens to just be nice to him, for the sake of being nice. Something about that will always hit different for me

I don’t care how much their fans try to say otherwise. The Valkyries winning the rite was unrealistic.

• “Y’all say they only won with the power of friendship but the BatBoys did too”…the Batboys were also trained warriors from childhood that had been preparing for the rite since they walked into those camps. Their situation can’t be compared to the Valkyries because like most Illyrians they had years of preparation built up for this on top of them “having the power of friendship”. They did not win simply because they relied on one another but because they were also trained specifically for this.

• “But Feyre won against the Wyrm and y’all didn’t say that was unrealistic” Feyre like the Batboys used her years of preparation as a huntress to kill the Wyrm. She like them used her prior knowledge to win. That trial was specifically chosen for her because Amarantha knew that she was a huntress and wanted her to hunt the Wyrm. Which she did. She did not fight it head on but rather outsmarted it. The Valkyries fought Illyrian warriors with years of training. “But the Valkyries were trained by the most powerful warriors in Prythian” correct me if I’m wrong but doesn’t Cassian also spend time training Illyrians at the camps? So those warriors were also trained by the most powerful of them😭.

• “Y’all are just misogynists who hate seeing women overpower men” Nah. Valkyrie fans *cough Nesta fans cough* just like to come for every other woman and their achievements in these books. You can’t be trying to devalue these women and everything that they’ve overcome when you stan people who have the biggest plot armor. You’re just getting a taste of your own medicine.

• “The Valkyries won because the Illyrians were too busy hunting one another instead of focused on winning” Sorry but you’re never going to make me believe that every Illyrian in the rite was just focused on these women. You think every single one was focused on killing them over having eternal glory and status? The rite is one of the most (if not the most) sacred Illyrian traditions. I can guarantee you that a lot of them went into it wanting to win and not worrying about 3 random women. The Illyrian they met in the cave proved that there were people not worried about killing them.

Lastly if Sjm wanted to make them winning look more realistic then she should have lowered the stakes. She shouldn’t have made it this hard competition that only 12 (?) people have won in the entire history of Illyria if she was going to have 3 people with little to no knowledge about it win. This just proves that she was winging Acosf and not much of it was planned out the way a book as long as that requires. It’s not even just the fighting. They had no wilderness training. Not only were they fighting people with years (maybe even centuries) of training on them. They survived a week in the woods when none of them were prepared for that.

I’m sorry but I’m just not going to believe this. Get mad at me for saying it all you want but it was not realistic. “But this is fantasy it’s not supposed to be realistic” — same group of people that calls Rhys a p*do for his age difference with Feyre and comes for Feyre’s role as High Lady. You only want realism when it benefits you.

the gorgug-porter conversation is interesting to me because like. yea for the overwhelming majority of the conversation porter’s being shitty & trying to fit gorgug into a box that gorgug just does not fit into by trying to make gorgug’s relationship with his rage more focused on the aggression aspect of it. but then there’s also this specific thing that brennan brought up again in the ap, which is that gorgug’s relationship with his rage is wholly “this is a tool i use to protect my friends.” which isn’t a bad thing! but that’s his Whole relationship with it, & gorgug seems to place next to no value on his rage in relationship to himself. which is problematic, because it’s first & foremost his rage.

being raised in a household with a sort of toxic positivity largely meant that, whether or not it was his parents’ intention, gorgug internalized the message that more traditionally “negative” emotions such as anger are the wrong response to something. part of the reason he prioritizes his artificing is probably because it’s “fixing” things. in comparison to being a barbarian, which gorgug associates with “breaking” things. good vs. bad behavior, in his eyes.

it’s a totally unacceptable bar to measure a 16 y/o by, but i do think part of porter’s reasoning for not letting gorgug multiclass is him recognizing that gorgug generally does not value anger as a valid emotional response to something, at the very least for himself. & that directly conflicts with what being a barbarian is, because whether you like it or not, that rage is what fuels you. but again, barring a kid from pursuing something they deeply care about in part (not entirely, porter has a lot of more bullshit reasons) because of their fundamental values & world outlook is crazy.

so yes, 98% of porter’s reasoning is pretty shitty, immature, rife with a toxic view that there’s only one proper way to access rage, & generally not a good thing to do as a teacher, but also within that reasoning is the 2% of ‘there is a fundamental part of yourself that you only value if you can use it to take care of other people & you need to accept that as something that can take care of you, too.’ but that’s something to discuss with a therapist or a guidance counselor, not something that should hugely impact gorgug’s academic future.

When I’m not working 100 hour weeks I should talk in-depth about the fact that the single most earth-shatteringly effective treatment for my executive dysfunction was forgiving myself for having executive dysfunction.

Sometimes I say that and people act like I’ve gone all kumbaya healing crystals on them, and it’s hard to explain that like. No friend, I’m being very clinical here. I’m talking measurable results—I’m talking clean my apartment, form healthy habits, and show up places on time results.

And it’s because I stopped getting mad at myself when I don’t do those things. Cos it turns out that’s useless bullshit and a waste of time, and when just thinking about a task makes me upset I’m way less likely to do it. The stress and upset are, themselves, additional hurdles I’ve constructed between myself and doing a task. When those are gone, it’s easier to actually get them done.

And then it ripples out, right, because I’m not expending so much time and energy on every little thing, and that means I have more to distribute to other tasks, which are themselves easier. And so on and so forth.

So now when I look at dirty clothes on the floor, the only thing that goes through my head is, “I’ll get to it.”

And I will.

What has always been the basis for my thoughts on Tae and Jk’s relationship is the way their bodies behave towards each other. I feel very strongly that that’s something you don’t find between any other BTS pairing. I feel very strongly that that’s something that indicates romance. It’s the very first thing that made me go from general Army, to a Tkkr. Is that enough to say I’m sure that they’re in a relationship? No, there is no way to be a 100 percent sure. But aside from the way they interact there is plenty to point to them being more than friends.

If you are aware of queer history, if you are aware of SK’s thoughts on queerness, if you have experience with marketing and content creation… you know that what we see from Tae and Jk fits. You know that queer couples don’t get the full spotlight. You know that you don’t search for a clear example of a romantic relationship (if something like that even exists), but you know what the clues of a hidden relationship might look like.

Making fun of our thoughts on this being a closeted relationship means you are making fun of closeted people���s reality. It is not ‘imagination’, it the combination of many factors that makes us believe this.

guys i gotta be honest whenever people call the live action avatar “darker “more serious” and “less childish” then the original show i just think of this meme
