I just really want some cunty couch in the tardis for the 15th doctor to whorishly lounge around on in between stories.

Like it would heal my soul.

Passive Men vs Provider Men

Doesn't have a clear plan

Lack of leadership & decision making

Lets his woman do the heavy lifting & doesn't protect her

Lack of ambition & motivation

Lack of confidence in his masculinity & ability to provide

Doesn't stand up for himself & his family

Lack of responsibility. A man-child

Makes excuses for himself

Sees his woman as a strong co-provider

Provider:

Leads

Has a plan

Initiates and executes

Self motivated

Highly ambitious

Confident in himself, his masculinity & his ability to provide

Handles responsibility well. A mature man

Problem solver

Sees his woman as delicate & to be taken care of

Man, I feel like every clip I see from Pints with Aquinas lately Matt Fradd is demeaning women. Really sad to see it, I used to love his interviews :/

[howdygravytrain]

so me and @johnnylandslide been talking and uhhhhhhh tataru's scary dawg privilege was born LMAO. got a whole brainstorming doc made and everything EHEHEHEHEHEHE

i'm still workshopping things, but what i got so far is that evyllaine isn't a wol but is BFFs with gravy (tho she'd never admit it) whom she met when gravy first came to hydaelyn, later joining her on her adventures

originally from a minor house in ishgard, evy was a temple knight that was sent to the gaol after killing a superior officer that ordered her to execute a defenseless young au ra child. stripped of her titles and publicly denounced from her house, evy was tortured while awaiting her trial but was freed by an unknown party.

she made her escape to gridania where she found work at the carline canopy, keeping a low profile until mother miounne came in one day with a weird ass lalafell who claimed to be from another universe. everything went downhill was fine for a while...until evy met our favorite receptionist and was IMMEDIATELY smitten by how cute she was TEEHEE

i plan to add evy's backstory to the pinned post here, but for now i'm gonna keep working on my yeehaw!au fic so I can FINALLY post that first chapter WHOOOOOOOOOOOO

OVER LAND, ICE, & SEA INTRODUCTION

Newfoundland, 1825

Susanna Ainsworth is an exile. After rejecting countless marriage proposals, her merchant father banished her across the Atlantic to her uncle's whaling outpost on Newfoundland's northern coastline, where she's spent the past two years with only her aunt and her secret journals for company. But Susanna knows what she must do to return to London: crush her outspokenness, keep sweet, and prove she'll do whatever society (or this small version of it) expects of her. If losing herself is the price, she’ll pay it.

Elisha Barrett, Captain of His Majesty’s Ship Persistence, will leave his mark on the landscape even if it kills him. The son of a famous naval Captain and failed Arctic explorer who died under mysterious circumstances, he jumped at the chance to join Parry's Expedition to find the illusive Northwest Passage and finish what his father started. Skewing his direct orders, he sails Persistence as far as she can go into the ice, until it's too late...

Everything changes the night Susanna watches a ship wreck against her shores, and a young, wild eyed Captain asks for help.

On my first rewatch of The Last Place on Earth and I can still safely say that Captain Lawrence Titus Oates waltzing with his freshly washed trousers is the best thing I have ever seen

[the-golden-vanity]

Terror fans and polar exploration friends, did you know about this? I'm not sure how I feel about Tom Hiddleston as Henry Worsley, but I'm delighted to see Soo Hugh back in her element, running shows about polar explorers dying badly.

Him: What's your type? Me: A provider & protector.

[elliotly]

both of the male romantic interest characters in the wicked movie give me such an unfathomable ick I have never experienced before...the gender envy i get from glinda and jeff goldblum make up for it though

[hms-melodrama]

Today, while driving and listening to my 5th polar exploration audiobook in 2 months:

Narrator: "... frozen in pack ice."

Me: "ha, it's always the fucking pack ice."

...

Me: What just came out of my mouth.

[hers-underwraps]

WIP Intros

Arson and Other Fires

Project Lifebloom dissolves in a flash flood of an investigation that leaves the previously thriving community of Second- and Third-Gen humans — genetically engineered for physical strength and physic abilities, respectively — packed away in prisons and scattered across the universe. On the Project's distant Outer Station, Avram Ashta has just enough advance warning to pack the next generation of young Lifebloom cadets, an eclectic collection of scientists and soldiers, and a weeks' worth of food onto a ship and flee with nothing more than a scrambled message from the Project's director promising that a safe homeland is out there waiting for them, if only they can find it. Five years later, he's left the children memory wiped and hidden on an obscure planet and is holding his increasingly fractious crew together with both hands. And then news comes of the director's arrest, and with it, the first clue in years of the homeland's location. Except this new version of Project Lifebloom is different than he remembers — or maybe not different at all.

Wherefore Art Thou, Caspian?

What happened to Caspian Anno? This is the question plaguing our unnamed protagonist, who wakes one morning to find themself in Caspian's body with no memory of who they are, how they got there, or why everyone seems to be afraid of them. Written in the format of letters to the illusive Caspian, our protagonist struggles with personhood, identity, and the dawning realization that something terrible might have happened to their body's original owner.

City Witches

Ten covens, twenty fighters, thirty matches. Vandion City's underground fighting circuit has grown from a handful of scrappy witches trading spells in someone's garage to an institution in its own right, maintained through subterfuge and bribery. So when a famous, flashy fighter from a neighbouring city joins her coven and threatens not only to disrupt this precarious homeostasis but to take her spot in the ring, Nev Parker — ruthless, fast, holding the league record for disqualifications and nicknamed "The Brute" by her opponents — is less than thrilled. When the new fighter dies under mysterious circumstances shortly after her first match, Nev finds herself the prime suspect as the league scrambles to find the culprit and cover up the death before it comes to the attention of the authorities.

The Long Year's Night

On an alternate version of Earth, the Antarctic is a strange place: impossible creatures appear from nowhere and vanish just as suddenly. A ten-kilometer walk one day is five the next and twenty the day after. Those who venture too far into the snow are plagued by strange visions, returning as hollow shells of themselves. Time bends, breaks, folds in on itself. On the eve of war, disgraced explorer Edward Lawrence gathers together a rag-tag group of scientists, sailors, and a young man who claims to have the ability to turn back time for his final attempt to reach the pole.
