You can’t get mad at Miles smut and then turn around and repost fan art of Miles with rock hard abs, Gwen with a big butt and large breasts, and Hobie and Pavitr making out.
Don’t like pedos on your page? Stop giving them ammo. Argue with your momma🤷🏾♀️
Edit: Not defending no one, both sides are ugly n nasty as fuck. Don’t @ me unless you got some real defense, n “but I’m a minor” ain’t shit.
If I have to hear the name ozempic one more fucking time…..
I have a friend who’s diabetic and she told me that her doctor keeps trying to get her to go on ozempic…but her a1c levels are fine. My friend said she’d rather just get straight insulin shots if it’s that bad but her doc said she didn’t need it…
Then the mf started yapping about bmi and it clicked. My friends levels are fine. Her diabetes is under control. Her doctor just thinks she’s too fat so wants to put her on a medication to help lose weight even though it has atrocious gastrointestinal side effects
Diabetics that genuinely do need ozempic can’t fucking get it bc there’s a national shortage due to random mfs that were already 110 soaking wet with rain boots on snatching up the supply. Fatphobia in medicine isn’t just dangerous it kills, either through encouraging and allowing harmful behavior or neglecting the vulnerable.
In talking about Chaucer (p. 74), I said that, in general, puns and verbal connections of sound were unimportant and not to be sought out; and now, you will say, I have been using them to explain cruces in Shakespeare. Alas, you have touched on a sore point; this is one of the less reputable aspects of our national poet.
A quibble is to Shakespeare [Johnson could not but confess] what luminous vapours are to the traveller; he follows it at all adventures; it is sure to lead him out of his way and sure to engulf him in the mire. It has some malignant power over his mind.... A quibble was for him the fatal Cleopatra for whom he lost the world, and was content to lose it.
Nor can I hold out against the Doctor, beyond saying that life ran very high in those days, and that he does not seem to have lost the world so completely after all. It shows lack of decision and will-power, a feminine pleasure in yielding to the mesmerism of language, in getting one's way, if at all, by deceit and flattery, for a poet to be so fearfully susceptible to puns. Many of us could wish the Bard had been more manly in his literary habits, and I am afraid the Sitwells are just as bad.
William Empson, 7 Types of Ambiguity, ch 2 pp 100-101
i'm sorry this is so fucking funny. that pathetic loser shakespeare who loved puns so much it cost him everything, except of course his status as the most famous, most read, most immortal english-language author of all time. but everything else, he lost and it's all because of how weak he was to resist a pun :/ pouring one out for my sad little girly man who could have had it all if only he was better at writing, the thing he is the most famous guy in the world for.
even empson, who disagrees with johnson that shakespeare "lost the world", is like, too bad our favorite poet is susceptible to the thing that made him famous :/ really tragic that the guy whose wordplay we've been talking about for 300 years likes wordplay :///
also i can't get over writing a book about the types of ambiguity and NOT INCLUDING PUNS?? sorry but puns are ambiguous! that's where their juice comes from! imagine liking ambiguity so much you write a book about it but never mention puns except to dunk on them. imagine being a POET and POETRY CRITIC who looks down on sound-based ambiguity! could not be me!!
The entire Baldur's Gate 3 cast flirts with each other constantly and then the game expects me to pick one of them, and ask that person if it's okay if I flirt with the others.
Bro, I didn't start this polycule, I just eagerly accepted. Don't get mad at me because I'm also DTF.
Tbh the more darkfic I read and write the less seriously I can take discourse/fan wank about how "problematic" something is. Guarantee that for any oh so "fucked up" piece of media out there, fans could and have written worse. Sometimes the fans who have written worse are the ones doing the discoursing and that's the silliest of all.
homeschooling in the US should be greatly restricted not for all the much better reasons it should be but because i personally sometimes find former homeschoolers to be extremely annoying
This is my hot take but Dream should stop behaving like Quack.ity when he has a problem. stop vaguing and being passive aggressive on twt and FUCKING TALK TO HIS FRIEND
@ohsunshine: i know people don't like me. / from jon tma — HOW TO BE EATEN STARTERS
' how d'you figure? the antisocial personality bit, or the gettin' people to gab about their life histories with yer fear powers bit? 'ard to say, meself. '
it's weird to think of the magnus institute as a place, sometimes, and not just as the beacon of claustrophobic magical reckoning that it radiates; as an office, with assorted people and politics, and not a massive fucking spotlight with a dozen extra bulbs attached. already the big bloody hub of weird shite incorporated, beholding unlimited, then tack on all the nasty little power games involved with bosses and contracts and coworkers seeing into your soul ... can't imagine it makes anyone any FRIENDLIER to each other. there's a reason constantine stays far, far away from that cesspit.
still, sometimes the solution's a lot simpler than it first appears. he tilts his head thoughtfully, taking a drag off his silk cut and holding it out invitingly to jon, before blowing out the smoke in a cloud of sage advice.
' ... y'ever consider not bein' a prick? i mean, no offense mate, but you don't strike me as a bloke with extraordinary people skills to start with. now, ordinarily i'd say fuck 'em, don't need to be liked, but ... in your position? could certainly fuckin' help. '
wait actually fuck me just looked in the tags and why is that one ableist loser still in this fandom Sorry i cant take you seriously posting abt holding gato accountable when you are a total piece of shit yourself
Burning my leg had shattered every notion I had about the safety of chef pants until I considered that it had to pass through my pants and boot socks and was still pretty bad. Can't imagine if it'd been bare skin
