#world without women

[mysillyside]

The way I completely lose all interest in Lawlight as a ship if Light isn't Kira. And frankly, I feel like L would agree with me on this one. I don't think he'd gaf abt Light in the slightest if Light wasn't Mr. Serial Killer.

no one told me that the simone-karl plot from why women kill would rip my heart out and stomp it into little itty bitty pieces

Pulp Fiction anyone??!

Here at Queer Liberation Library we’ve got you covered! from Beebo Brinker, to the Gay Detective, this was such a fun collection to put together for our readers

they are flying off our digital shelves though, so get your holds in when you can! 🌈

why does the pjo series have to unnecessarily villainize goddesses (hera & athena) or show them as silly ladies (aphrodite & demeter) BUT posiedon and apollo are somehow shown as the coolest/most likeable gods, even though arguably, they're right after zeus on terms of corruption?

ares shown as the worst god after zeus and hera amuses me. last time i checked, he was the patron god of amazons and literally killed a man for attempting to rape his daughter but guess who cursed women for rejection? apollo. guess who raped women when they said no (aside from zeus)? posiedon.

i hope ruby gets a well-that’s-alright-then-style notdeath. on the one hand it will make haters mad because oh no not another companion with an impermanent end (and i like to see haters mad) on the other it would require creativity to depict this in a new way + i love all the implications i love the dark fairytale quality of these companion exits i love my un-undead schrodinger’s women

with the way the legend of ruby sunday is titled… legends aren’t usually told about living people. legends are stories of the bygone past, of an age long since over, fictionalised and overgrown with folklore like barnacles sticking to an abandoned shell. there is such a thing as a living legend, but they’re exceedingly rare. the unmistakeable raven’s call in the 73 yards teaser, the trailer’s cut to fifteen crying alone after promising to cherry he’d protect her daughter… the foreshadowing is clear as day…

and yet. there’s one massive HOWEVER. ruby appears in s15: millie’s been spotted on set filming it. which leads me to believe — the doctor isn’t one to take the time travel route and revisit companions that in his future are genuinely dead. that would hurt too much, it would cause unnecessary trauma and could break the timeline. that must mean ruby stays alive in some way. ish. she’s alive and a legend and a mystery. girl-ballad girl-song girl-paradox

here she is, fading out.

p.s.: thesis statement on moffatgirls from the tags i left on somebody else’s post about charley pollard.. well it belongs here since it’s basically the semiotic hurricane swirling around ruby at the moment :)

what kills me is how people here in the west are so …. willfully, blissfully, ignorant of what’s transpiring in palestine. like i have even seen poc, even seen HIJABIS still buying starbucks and i’m like …… i guess dumbfounded at this point. “oh but it’s just one drink” “oh but my one dollar won’t make a difference if i spent it or not” “well it’s not my problem, the middle east is always at war”

are people so arrogant they think they are the exception to what’s happening in palestine? in fact. the victim blaming against the palestinians is insane “well they should’ve just left” “well they should’ve agreed to a ceasefire” “well they shouldn’t have let hamas take over” you guys make me sick to my stomach!!!! my god this rhetoric is so narcissistic it hurts!!!!!

[ruthlesslistener]

If ace and arophobes really are coming back to tumblr then I'm not apologizing for how nasty I'll be to them btw. I've got no plans to seek them or their rhetoric out but if it happens organically then I'mma tear them bitches a new one and I don't care if it leads to them hatebombing me with death and rape threats again like they did when I was 14 and 17 <3 theres 10 million problems out there in the world that need solving but theoretical cishet men 'infiltrating' the queer community ain't one of them

Sometimes I think world would be so peaceful if there were no women. No sexual assault, no female feticide, no forced prostitution, no dowry deaths, no early marriages.

I'm bi and yeah your note on women not having solidarity seems sadly true. Apart from not dating men would there be anything you would suggest to improve ones life apart from stating away from those women if possible?

I love this question because this is how to start thinking: being practical.

What it takes to "improve ones life" is subjective so with that said firstly define what a better life(style) for yourself away from moids would look like. Temporarily mentally remove xy terrorist existence. What would your habits/routine be? What would you work towards & pour your energy into? What would you want to be? What would you center your life around? Take your time with these questions or anymore that come up. Have a general idea then be more specific and start breaking your life down into sectors/sections/areas, then look at where you want to be in those areas and work towards it.

For example; I divide my life into 6-7 aspects:

Physical Strength - Not just about muscle but knowing how to fight, where to hit and when to fight. Being stronger makes it easier to defend yourself in altercations (especially with other women). Some mfs will try you & you cant always rely on others coming to your rescue. Also work on building stamina to help endurance, and keeping as healthy as possible.

Emotional Strength - If you cant control your emotions they will control you. In a world of chaos being emotionally strong will let you cut through the noise and focus on what truly matters. Building emotional strength is not easy but it's worth it. Being able to rise above immediate reactions and pace yourself will allow you to assess situations more rationally & make more beneficial choices.

Finances - Get your bag up. Having money to gain resources is imperative to quality of life. I dont care what anyone says having a certain amount of money in life WILL make you happier as you're able to meet your needs better. Having more money/resources also makes it easier to support other women should you choose to do so, it also allows you to be more influential and have more control over your life. However, dont become a slave to getting money tho because that's how you get scammed.

Network - The type of people you hang around can make or break who you are as a person. Aim to connect with likeminded women who will encourage & inspire you as you go on this journey. Hang around people that value & will be honest with you while giving you grace. Not all women you engage with have to be single & childfree but beware the moid crazy ones because they will bring danger to you in their quest for maIe validation. Life isn't perfect but you cant go wrong having the right people around you, valuable relationships are hard to find but it goes a long way even if it's just online. However, no company > bad company.

Spirituality/Guide - Having something bigger than yourself to guide you through the chaos in this world can offer guidance/purpose that keeps you grounded & focused. For many people generally this is religion/god. Not everyone needs or ascribes to religion/spirituality though, but at least consider sets of morals/beliefs to follow. However even that isn't for everyone. So if you feel better off without spirituality or a 'higher' guide at least be clear on it & your reasons why (for yourself).

Hobbies & Interests - As turbulent as the world is, find things to enjoy amidst the chaos. Constant work, doom, and gloom will not change anything you will only hurt yourself. Take time to indulge in things that make you happy to recharge & relax. Engage in hobbies that serve you, share your passion with other women & hear theirs out too. It goes a long way in terms of mental health.

Security - It takes privilege to decide to not get married or have children as a woman & live it out. Everyone's situation is different so what I'll generally suggest is to constantly look into how you can protect yourself, have backup methods, and stay in the loop of xy predation. Dont drown in it but moids are predators & being completely blind to them is being blind to danger. Elaborated on point 10 here.

Sounds like a lot? Great, it'll keep you busy because this isn't a vacation or destination but a lifestyle. And to be honest, some of y'all can do with the busyness as it'll let you focus on what actually matters. This not to say to overwhelm yourself in things for the sake of it but to prioritise your energy on effective things for your life. As you focus on building you'll find that you have less energy to care about insignificant stuff or stuff out of your control anyways. For example, Instead of getting wound up about user somerandomadjectivefem stirring discourse calling you an extremist or whining about how impossible it is for her & other women to live without romantic love n' whatnot (or even women irl pulling this crap), you either ignore or quickly shut down the conversation & swiftly move on.

Everything I've mentioned are just examples, you may feel differently do whatever you feel best applies. Also remember to enjoy the process along the way as you are living through it afterall :3

Long story short: Work on building resources & other aspects of your life up for yourself.

disgusting that supposed male 'artists' are using AI image generators to create 'artistic' images of naked women, and that male 'art bloggers' on this website are sharing those images. hell world.

the good christian "traditional" men are not the ones who are chronically online making posts about traditional gender roles and reblogging stepford wives pics from porn blogs. just saying

what i think is the reason I'm Just Ken is a good/as popular as it is is because the way it somehow explores both what its like to be a woman and man just through ken.

like the line "I'm just Ken. Anywhere else I'd be a ten." just feels very hitting as a woman in a social media world, especially if you've seen the truerateme subreddits and the ways they judge women.

and of course the fragility and inability to find meaning/self worth outside of a romantic relationship due to the strict boxes placed on men and male relationships (and even friendships between men and women).

theres more and i know im getting annoying with the barbie posts but i did really like the movie, regardless of how "bland" its feminism is. also just all the chronically online feminists complaining about how basic it is, like oh should we tell everyone? Should we throw a party? should we invite andrea dworkin.

like is it perfect? no. does it lack in intersectionality and have poc characters act as the support to white characters? yes. should ken probably of apologized? yeah. but many things can be true about one movie.

I am thinking about tall mean intimidating lesbian power couple prongsfoot. Sirius is tall and gorgeous and steps on men’s throats for breakfast.

omg hi! this...this is new and im endlessly fascinated.

prongsfoot is SUCH a power couple in any universe, and this is no different. they're far above everyone's leagues and they know it.

(i said, ages ago, that the only fc for sirius i can really get behind these days is like. bella hadid and this is it. this is the moment that opinion has been waiting for)

but just imagining like, this super competent, extremely gorgeous sirius with sleek black hair, dressed in a pantsuit (you know that style where u just wear the blazer, and it dips into the most enticing cleavage gap? that) with the highest stilletos known to man. a red lipstick girlie. just casually navigating the world looking fab. can cut a man down with a stare, no words needed. high profile lawyer vibes ykwim?

and then!!! her buff, butch girlfriend jamie <3 an undercut with curls piled on top, piercings going up one ear, a nose ring. arms built like a deadly weapon, always shown off in muscle tanks. thiccc thighs with a little belly that sirius loves pressing kisses onto!!!! she calls sirius darling and my love and always buys flowers for her so she can make flower crowns and other accessories because s looks ethereal in them. its a gift to both of them, really.

jamie loves swinging sirius around, throwing her over her shoulder, carrying her bridal style, piggyback rides etc etc. prefers being the little spoon tho bc feeling of safety sirius gives off is unmatched. absolutely no one else would agree with her but having s is like ur own overprotective hound bc one wrong look towards jamie and sirius is ready to throw hands. no one touches whats hers, and certainly no one dares to upset jamie.

jamie wakes sirius up with breakfast in bed every day. at exactly 1:25pm every day, sirius takes a long break and carries lunch for both herself and jamie bc she knows her gf gets so caught up in work she'll forget to eat. at 5:55pm, jamie shuts the shop down and walks over to sirius' office because now she's the one working overtime for 'just one more file, baby, that's it!' and she'll go on til the next day if u dont put a stop to it. at 8pm, both of them come together in the kitchen to talk about their day and make dinner together, drinking a glass of wine and playing soft songs (with the occasional one direction) in the background, so in love its almost nauseating.

I see the occasional claire/owen au prompt surface but 60% of the time fandom interprets it in the most incorrect way. and it makes me so irrationally mad. it’s like “mafia x fbi au. owen is a mobboss—“ claire canonically is the evil capitalist and owen is the one thought she was crazy. she would revolutionize mobbossing. they now have dental care included in the health care package. she just ordered Little Tony to be dipped in acid for maxing out their transportation budget for the second time. she would consider it feminism to take over a typically male dominant position such as crime lording. and in this scenario owen would be brooding over the evils of humanity or whatever for creating this heartless woman but ultimately morals are not stronger than ass so.
