“People with a cervix” immediately tells me you have never worked with or cared about a huge number of people. Literally it’s so fucking CLASSIST in a country with no sex ed.

Do you have any clue how low the literacy rate is in the United States?????? 18-21% of adults can’t read at all. And yet you think they have a working understanding of the female anatomy to the point where asking if they have a cervix is more helpful than asking if they are female?

Don’t you think that people with a second language are more likely to learn the word “woman” than “cervix” or “uterus”? Or do I’m/migrant communities not matter at all?

How about this? 44% of women in this UK survey were able to identify where their cervix is!!! And that is a country with basic sex education!

Do you know what the most common reactions were to me asking for pronouns and gender identity was in social services? Anger, embarrassment, and shame. Because they had no idea what the FUCK I was talking about. Many people responded with their racial identity.

Literally cannot think of a bigger luxury than a gender. People who are taking medications to change body parts should know better than anyone how to name and care for those body parts, right? So why do all of our public awareness campaigns need to validate them, instead of reaching the most vulnerable populations?

And no, please don’t tell me that a trans man who has medical access to HRT and medical care is somehow more vulnerable than a non-English speaking migrant woman living on the streets. Which one already knows she needs Pap smears????? Which one do we need to cater to???

WHICH ONE IS MORE COMMON AND DYING EVERY DAY IN THIS COUNTRY YOU CLASSIST FREAKS

I wish I could shed my skin and turn into a butterfly. They have it easy. I wasn't made to go to school, work, make money, have kids, then die. I don't want to live life like that. I want to go on nightwalks and spend all day in a field of wild flowers with my friends, chatting and relaxing in the sun. What's the point of living just to die? Why have we as a society normalised working a 9 - 5 office job and staying up late, repeating that cycle? Why must I get an education that exceeds past basic knowledge? Why should I care about the fucking vector of something. Why should I give a shit about an animals internal organs? I wish we weren't violent animals. I wish we were peaceful. And we could just frolic in a field instead of just working, getting old, hobbling around, then dying. I wish I could be a teenage girl forever.

Dimension 20 fandom has some of the most feral shipping culture I've ever experienced. I'm starting to think y'all are fully incapable of perceiving platonic relationships

I’m begging stories that cut off their protagonist’s arm or leg for there to be consequences to it instead of just giving them a new one after they’ve had some trauma development. Especially worse if it’s just a fully functioning limb that perfectly resembles their previous one.

In ‘No longer you’ Odysseus doesn’t know who the man with a trail of bodies is, but I think he thinks it might be the infant. Through his entire journey, the gods seem like they act to spite him, would saving the infant be all that out of the question? Also, Zeus told Odysseus that the infant would grow up to slaughter the families of Greece, and we know Odysseus is thinking about killing the infant through the entire saga. Idk, all this is just a way of saying Odysseus is paranoid of a baby coming back from the dead to kill him.

i’m just dropping by and i wanna rant a bit about just how much i hate that people have turned the word “narcissistic” into a synonym for toxic or abusive. even if we’re ignoring the ableism towards people with NPD (which we shouldn’t), people are still not using the term correctly? they’re not evening referring to someone who is egotistical or selfish, they’re just straight up using that word for any person who slightly pisses them off.

rarely is a woman's character outside of her rape emphasised in famous rape cases- yet it is the first instinct of media to focus on a rapist's good character or his hobbies or his future plans. Ddd she not have any of that? or does it simply not matter in the face of a man's ambitions just as her will over her own body didn't?

the webisode “An Hexclusive Invitation” aka faybelle’s introduction webisode pisses me off so bad

and it’s all because of how they introduce her. hopper comes up to her and they proceed to have this unnatural sounding conversation where they force-feed information in regards to faybelle. which yeah a lot of media does but ever after high literally has NARRATORS, CHARACTERS THAT SERVE AS PLOT DEVICES AS AN EXCUSE TO SPOON FEED EXPOSITION, and yet they DIDN’T USE THEM instead opting to talk through the characters like bro ARE YOU SERIOUS???

instead we need hopper asking, “Hey are you Faybelle Thorn daughter of the dark fairy from Sleeping Beauty and head cheerhexer at the school Ever After High from hit series Ever After High?,” and faybelle telling him, “Yes, I am Faybelle Thorn daughter of the dark fairy from Sleeping Beauty and head cheerhexer who attends the school Ever After High from hit Mattel franchise Ever After High and i’m an evil character.”

i am sick and tired of the hotd fandom. of both team black and team green who won't stop arguing about stuff that's so childish.

there is no true winner in hotd, no true good or bad. it's a war between families and it's supposed to not make sense. both rhaenyra and alicent do stupid and petty shit. you can agree or support one more than the other but you can't deny the truth, it doesnt matter if you have read the books or not.

i see so many people insulting each other over fictional characters, it doesnt even make sense. you can be team green or team black but don't fucking use that as an excuse to impose your opinion.

let people watch a show however they want and like whichever characters they want.

if i could go back to before everything went to shit, i would have no clue what to say to the little girl in front of me. how could i even explain any of what was going to happen to her?

The Sacrifice Ending is stupid. It’s a binary choice between endgame content and getting to skip straight to credits and being dumped at your last save.

It’s basically the bad ending in Omori, but instead of a gut wrenching tragedy, it’s a 10 second cutscene that exists to give the game’s main conflict “nuance” and justify why Narinder is the final boss.

It’s like even the game knew this ending is pointless.

“Alright buddy, do you want to free Narinder or fight him?”

“Free hi- ”

“NO WRONG GO TO LAST SAVE AND TRY AGAIN”

I hope this gets changed later. Maybe a playable Narinder campaign, or having The Lamb be reborn as a champion of Narinder’s cult? I dunno, just something besides an over glorified “view credits” button.

All you dndads fans know swiftli and so do I and I believe that Taylor is has a black cat personality while Linc has a golden retriever personality. Thank you for reading my nonsense.

I honestly don't think that we're ready for season 3 of heartstopper. There are so many things from the books that I hope get included into this season. And the announcement for the other new cast members is crazy. This season is definitely going to bring more heartache if it's anything like the books.
