Have I even mentioned how much I loathe the creation of “Socqueline”? Like come on, creators, you did absolutely nothing to differentiate her from Marinette aside from “main character admires this never-before-mentioned other character so much she adopted her hairstyle”. Like are you serious?

Both are Asian, both have the same hair color and STYLE, both have similar eye colors, both dress in similar styles - she even wears BLACK AND RED - the least they could do was admit publicly that they were inspired by all the “Lila’s new bestie, a fake Ladybug” fics circulating around the fandom when creating a fake ladybug. SHE’S HALF CHINESE AND HALF FRENCH. She ADMIRES ADRIEN. Like ARE YOU SERIOUS. YOU CLONED MARINETTE and called it a day.

(Also can we please have a new female character that doesn’t go googoo over this fucking boy already… like come on, even Aurore supposedly liked him (Dark Cupid). I don’t mind Zoe’s inclusion (even though she’s just a bad counterpart to Chloe and was never mentioned even in passing before she moved to Paris), and I don’t mind her crushing on Marinette. More of that, please. More new girls with bigger roles that don’t let Adrien consume 50-90% of their brain. Although Zoe, Rose, and Juleka don’t count since they’re bi/pan or lesbian. On that note, if Zoe starts to crush on Adrien I’m taking your freaking knees.)

They say we come into this world all alone. But the fact that humans are so social breaks or rather demolishes that fact that we are built to be alone. The emotional dependence we create on each other is an act of self destruction. An act of suicide. It masks our true selves just so that other people accept us. No one has seen the death of an extrovert and the path they takes to become bitter, isolated, and hurt. The shell of their happiness weeps on the side. The fear of friendship and the disdain of closeness is masked by the cries of affection. Have you ever felt as the third wheel on your own friend group? The awkward intruder? The forgotten one? The last option? I hate how society has made us believe that friendships that stay forever even exist. I'm just 18 and in college and I've never wanted to not be friends at all. All this time I've wasted on people on trying to be social. My energy wasted on them. I never hated codependency ever. Never been envious of friendships. But here I am wanting to scream into a void. Bursting into flames, an explosion that would just engulf the world along with me.

I just LOVE… LOVE!! how Daemon finally stops lurking from the shadows and inserts himself into the alicent/nyra fight when alicent order criston to get an eyeball from one of nyra’s boys. But that’s not ALL i love.. I LOVE!!! when he goes to her after alicent cuts her hand and holds it. But not once does he look towards his DAUGHTERS!!! who this fight started with, who took punches from aemond, who are also BLOODIED, who just lost THEIR MOTHER. yet where is Daemon?

Sorry the way the writers are throwing every relationship daemon or nyra have outside of each other to the wind to make Daemyra seem destined or earth shattering is leaving a bad taste in my mouth. Don’t get me started on the butchering of THEE lady Laena Velayron.

But I tell myself that maybe it’s the times. Father’s weren’t known for looking or caring for their children. But. Even as unfit for the throne Viserys is.. he still after all he’s done shown to care for nyra. And yet Daemon can’t even show an ounce of care for his kids.. I mean what does Daemon care about? Really.. The butchering of his character is something I can talk about as well. Some other time maybe.

All in all.. HOTD writers I hope you never find the other pair to socks.

Adora deserved so much better than what she got, like I need an episode where she just breaks down crying and letting everything out. I mean she had to watch all 3 of her mother figures die and 2 of them where using her that's traumatic enough but obviously that's not enough. She also had everyone she grew up with and probably ppl she considered family hate and try to kill her in such a short amount of time. Hardly anybody in the show payed attention to her well being and she was basically treated like a weapon throughout the show, can we also mention how she was only 17 when these things happened. She'd also have alot of body trauma from the fail Safe, probably the portal, battle etc. And they couldn't give her one father/mother figure that wouldn't die and would not be abusive smh. She's also treated as she can't function without catra in the fandom and she barely gets any recognition for how amazing she is and how smart she is, let's also mention the blatant victim blaming and abelism the fandom shows towards. Adora has Canon adhd and also displays alot of asd symptoms yet the fandom treats her like she's a baby who doesn't know anything when she's incredibly smart and incredibly cocky, she isn't a 'dumb jock lesbian' she's just adhd and autistic coded.

But I'm not lying when I say I'd drop any future new boy just to get a chance with the boys i have loved before

people romanticize the sentence “i would die for you” too much. life means nothing to me i could never ever relate to that and also i would literally die for nothing. because if i love someone that much i wanna live for them

I just ordered my physical copy of throttled after reading it for free on my now-broken ereader and I know I paid too much for it but it’s actually gonna mean so much to finally have a copy of one of my comfort romance novels

Sometimes, it's a little bit hard for me to live. I dont know. I would sometimes feel like, it's better to end this life because it's fucking hard to live in this kind of world. It feels like it's always me who has the responsibility to understand other people. That if it's my time to be understood, if I demand to be understood, I'm the bad one. People are not kind enough to understand other people's situation.

Today's one of those days. Today's a little bit hard for me. I woke up feeling like I don't want to go to work. And I really did not go to work. I just want to isolate myself from this kind of world. This world is a cruel one. This world is not kind for people who are struggling.

I want everybody who’s calling Ken a Trophy Husband to know that he’s actually a Trophy Boyfriend, because when Ruth Handler invented Ken in the 1960s, she was adamant that he would never marry her and instead be her “handsome steady”, so that Barbie remained a figure of independence for the little girls and was never put in the position of housewife.

Her house is hers. She bought it and furnished it with money she made in her own job. In STEM, in politics, in healthcare, in fashion, in academy, in customer service. Her credit card is in her name (women in the US couldn’t have their own regardless of marital status until 1974). And it’s all pink and fashionable because femininity and badassness aren’t mutually exclusive. No matter who you are, you can be anything.

That’s why Barbie’s slogan is “you can be anything”. Teaching these ideals to little girls is why Barbie was created. Empowering women and empowering femininity is the original meaning of the Barbie doll. It’s not that you have to be all this to be a woman, but if you are all or some of this, you too are awesome.

And somehow pop culture deliberately changed that narrative. Sexualised, bimbofied, and villainised her, when she actually isn’t responsible for the impossible beauty standards — people are, she’s just a stylised, not-to-scale toy like most others.

Men are frothing because he’s just Ken and I guess they were expecting her to be just Barbie, but that’s exactly what Ken is. Canonically. A badass woman’s himbo boyfriend.

This movie has the potential to radically change the way we collectively see Barbie into what Ruth Handler originally intended, I’m so very excited

Can you believe there's no Zagreus/Thanatos/Megaera/Dusa fic? None! Where's my messy and half-queerplatonic polycule?!

[dapper-lil-arts]

and somehow, that only makes her fall in love more

[recklesssaturn]

And somedays i eat pizza for breakfast and cereal for dinner as a rebellion

[hollis-art]

i saw someone spread hate to Keiko bc they were a Bashir/O'brien shipper, and i do NOT agree with that.

why would you ever say such things when this was always an option?

this is obviously what's happening in the show anyways
