I feel like a lot of people mistake comic relief or goofiness for lack of effort or caring by the creator, and that belies a real lack of understanding of like, writing and humor and art in general.

hey. when cis society is oppressing a trans man, what he is experiencing is. In Fact. misogyny. i'm sorry i know none of us like to be reminded of our agab, and it hurts whenever people perceive you as the wrong gender. but a cis person hate-criming, assaulting, verbally abusing, etc, a trans man is not doing "transandrophobia" because they do not perceive him as a man.

they perceive him as a woman failing at her gender, as a woman who has been seduced and lied to and manipulated because women are so easily led astray, just like it says in the bible. they perceive him as a woman who has been mutilated. they perceive him as a dyke that needs to be fixed. if they are hate-criming him because they *do* perceive him as a man, because he passes well enough they aren't thinking he could be trans, then they're doing so out of homophobia, perceiving him as a gay man, a pervert, a sissy, a danger to children. OR, they are being transphobic but specifically because they think he might be transfeminine instead. when cis society oppresses a trans woman, they are able to do it on multiple levels at once. She's a woman failing at her gender, a dyke that needs to be fixed. Or she's an evil and grotesque crossdressing pervert, a rude caricature, a danger to polite society. she will never be doing enough to escape oppression entirely, no matter if she gets every surgery she can and wears makeup every day and passes perfectly, because she lives under a patriarchy, and she's a woman, so she lives in a panopticon, and HAVING to get surgery and wear make-up to be respected IS oppression, especially if the alternative is being hate-crimed.

trans women (and trans men who pass) are not experiencing "transandrophobia" when a 'queer women and nbs" event turns them away at the door for being too masculine. they are. IN FACT!! experiencing the byproducts of misogyny in a patriarchy!!! where the terfs and coward cis women running those events and occupying those spaces have been taught (sometimes through experience, sometimes by men, sometimes by women) throughout life that men = stronger and more dangerous than women ALWAYS. That they need to protect themselves at all times and always be vigilant. That men and women can't be friends without sexual tension (and so as queer women the mere existence of what they perceive as a "man" is a threat). That women need a separate sports league because they can't possibly compete with someone who has even a little bit "extra" (an unquantifiable amount actually because there isn't a standard range) testosterone. That women should cook and men should fix cars. i promise you, i promise i promise i promise. it's misogyny. like!!! you don't say cis gay men experiences "androphobia", bc that's not a thing!! you sound like fucking mens rights activists guys please! you don't say a black man experiences "misandrynoir"!! because living in a patriarchy fundamentally means men do not experience oppression based on their gender. its not happening. shut the fuck up. stop walking us back to 2014 can we please take a step forward and stop bitching about this. there are genuine issues in the world and i'm frankly sick of people who should be smarter than that needing to be gently hand-held through this fucking explanation for the millionth time and still stomping their feet.

Could I ask ur thoughts on Aventurine and Dr. Ratio? Idc if it's shipped or not. It's just that thier dynamic makes me want to study them under a microscope

This, essentially.

[stickeykeys]

maybe this is a lil controversial, but i feel like as a community we just need to... just stop thinking that stuff we read about shifting is bible, if that makes sense.

you can read advice and follow it, of course!! following advice is great, but shifting is built on the principle of intention and you're own mind. nothing governs that but yourself.

there are no rules, you can do whatever you want, just set your intention.

you don't need a safe word, because if you set the intention you will come back to your cr.

you don't need to script beause if you set an intention of what you want to happen, it will.

as long as you have the intention to shift somewhere, you will. that's as simple as it is, that's the basic principle.

I will laugh so hard if it turns out that John is making a sincere effort at being a decent parent and it's such an awful outcome for Gideon that I feel like it's plausible. He's giving off such man who thinks of himself as a good guy confronted with oops baby vibes.

Look, I'm the crusty old fandom grandma, so forgive me if anyone's already said this in the million years I've been gone adulting, but like...

Okay, okay, so we know that there were hints about Ford, and Stan missing him throughout season one. Like Wax Stan's funeral was basically Stan mourning over Ford, the party in Double Dipper was most likely on Stan and Ford's birthday, Stan forlornly looking at Ford's glasses from his boarded up room, yadda yadda...

But does anyone else think that Stan had that clone-making copier in his office because he'd tried to make a clone of himself - basically a new Ford - for loneliness/guilt reasons in the years Ford was gone? And the moment he took him fishing in the Stan O' War I, he disintegrated from the water, and thus brotherly love always eluded his grasp?

so has anyone figured out WHY there is the Need To Share our Artworks™ or is it just the vibes and our Soul apparently

Been srlsy into the idea of writing more, explicitely fat Reader. Not sure how to tags it thought.

Ok, I think we need to calm the fuck down about that joke...

Nobody is telling you to like Tommy, Tevan or even Lou, but I don't think we should say it's the greatest disservice to tv queer representation ever written. Treating it as some abhorrent manipulation of Buck's vulnerability is a bit of an overkill... I've also seen posts about how dedicated Oliver is to biBuck and how this is just heartbreaking suffering for him -> the cast is at least a little bit involved with Tim and I'm sure if it was so horrible/uncomfortable for him he'd have tried to change that line since it's so minor.

At the end of the day, it was a throwaway sexual joke said on a date of an established couple in their 30/40s that left both of them smiling and was at best a little weird...

Can some people find it hot/funny? Yes.

Can some people find it cringe? Yes.

Can we all agree that there are different interpretations of scenes? WE SHOULD.

Let's leave this one line alone, focus on actual storylines AND FOR HEAVENS SAKE BE A BIT KINDER TO EACH OTHER BECAUSE THIS IS A TV SHOW

In the past the plans with Error being in a relationship was kinda up in the air, I think Blue or Fresh were mentioned? (I don't remember) what happened exactly to choose the sneaky/free spirit/blood hungry Ink as Error's companion?

That is quite simple, dearest anon, because Ink and Error’s relationship would be open and not restricted to just them. It is what works best when it comes to Ink because he is indeed such a free spirit and it is just not in his nature to settle down in one place for too long, but he wouldn’t wish for Error to feel abandoned and neglected, so he was the one to propose an open relationship, one where Error can find someone else he might love and cherish, too. Ink has a way of growing fond of anyone, so someone good enough for Error will surely gain his favour as well.

That someone might just be – and I quote from Error – an ‘annoying and persistent parasitic fairy who speaks in riddles and tongues and won’t leave me the fuck alone’. Fresh is a jester through and through, and although none knows from whence he came, it is clear that it is somewhere on the mainland, so he’s seen and experienced much and more. The island was just a new place for him to see, a new place to find another body and a new place where he would inevitably grow fond of a prickly ice queen who hates his riddles and throws insults at him.

Fresh: “Hehehe, mine bones once stolen tickles and pricks in pain and pleasure. What a proud and bewitching fairy thy queen of ice is.”

Ink: “Haha! I like your funny words!”

Error does not yet realise the doom he’s about to experience once Ink and Fresh become just as close to each other as they are with him, and their japes and ridiculous jests will drive him up the wall! But… the heart grows fonder.

your "correct" interpretation of the bible does literally nothing about the harm the "incorrect" interpretation i was raised with has caused so you can keep it to yourself <3

Titan will LITERALLY become "the middle earth".

Like, once the Sun becomes a red giant, Saturn will not only be the middle planet of the system, but his orbit will be in the new goldilocks zone. That means Titan's orbit will also be in said zone, which sounds GREAT until you think about it.

Because what if humanity is still around by that time? I severely doubt that after billions of years they still haven't tried colonizing Titan. Once the Sun becomes big enough, even terraformed Mars would be EXTREMELY close to the star and the heat would most likely force the earthlings to abandon Mars's surface entirely. Unless they came up with some insane, sci-fi technology, but let's assume that even if they do, the heat would be unbearable. Plus, by that point Mars could have already been polluted to hell and back, so the earthlings would have to look for a new home either way.

I don't think the earthlings would see Titan as their only option. Jupiter's orbit would also be in the goldilocks zone, even if it was on the warmer side, so Ganymede and Europa could also be good options. Other moons could also become habitable, who knows! But I feel like Titan would be THE earthling colony.

And I don't think Titan would like that.

He wouldn't push the earthlings away, of course not. They're in need of a shelter (AKA a celestial body) in order to survive and Titan is their best option. Plus, Titan might even have a bit of a soft spot for humanity at that point in time, since they're Earth's life and Earth isn't around anymore. Plus, it was an earthling astronaut that discovered life on Titan's surface, even if said astronaut was forced to do it. Titan has to lend them his surface, it's the right thing to do.

But Titan has life too, doesn't he? And a few billion years is more than enough time for it to evolve, become sentient, even! But Titan won't be able to see it grow and shape it's own identity. The earthlings will be there, and they will leave their mark deeply. Sure, maybe Titan's life will develop it's own languages, cultures, holidays, even religions. But in the end, the similarities with the earthling culture would be so obvious that Titan's natives might as well be an earthling country, and not a whole other species. He will become "the middle earth" even to the creatures that crawled out of his oceans. It would be hard not to feel bitter.

To celestial objects, he was Saturn's favorite moon. To the life forms, he's a replacement for Earth. He's always in someone's shadow, nothing is his.

And I feel like he wants something that is his. I think that's why he wanted to start the moon strike in the first place. He wanted to show that he's more than the people around him, that he is strong and kind and compassionate. So people think about him as the leader of the moon revolution, the president of the moon club, the first moon to develop life. So people look up to him.

He constatly acts like he's the morally superior one that does no wrong, it's why he villainizes Ganymede and Europa in the moon club arc. Now that people are looking at him and not his titles, he wants them to see him as his best self. He's not pretending to be a good person, either! He genuinly wants to help people because that's the right thing to do.

But maybe, when millions, if not billions of earthlings are crammed on his surface like sardines, drilling and exploiting and ripping him open, Titan would wonder if it was all worth it.
