Woke language: What it means and why it is causing controversy
Large businessmen like Ricardo Salinas Pliego have asked their staff to refrain from using the “Woke Language” because it has become so popular in recent hours. As a result, Internet users have expressed interest in learning the definition and history of this term on social media. Even though this word’s translation is straightforward: “Woke.” However, the concept is more nuanced than that, and…

Dictionary Erasing Females from the Language.
Post modern and critical theories rely on the misuse of words to mystify people. The downstream effects of this bullshittery are apparent as even the Merriam Webster dictionary is now having difficulty defining what a woman is. Always define your terms when you arguing with the woke – it is 9/10ths of their game. Demonstrate the linguistic tomfoolery and you might have a chance at a productive…

Diez pequeños afroamericanos cis
La reedición de las obras de Agatha Christie sometidas a una censura woke y superincluyente está dando que hablar. Hay que recordar que Agatha Christie ya fue sometida a censura con aquel Diez negritos, que en el original era Diez negritos. En Estados Unidos se cambió el título de la primera edición por el de And Then There Were None para no herir la sensibilidad de la población afroamericana. Mondadori también optó en un principio por titularlo …and Then There Were None, pero no les gustó el título, así que en 1977 optaron por Los indios, considerados con razón o sin ella menos hipersensibles que los africanos. Ya está trabajando un comité de ética para revisar y corregir Mein Kampf purgándolo de todas las alusiones racistas, la nueva edición se titulará Mein Garten y se centrará en el amor a las flores y la jardinería.

Dieci piccoli afro-americani cis
Fa discutere la riedizione dei lavori di Agatha Christie sottoposti alla censura del pensiero woke e superinclusivo. Da ricordare che Agatha Christie fu già fatta oggetto di censura con quel Dieci Piccoli Indiani che nell'originale erano Dieci Piccoli Negri (Ten Little Niggers). Negli Stati Uniti il titolo fu cambiato fin dalla prima edizione in And Then There Were None per non urtare la sensibilità della popolazione afro-americana. Anche la Mondadori scelse in un primo momento di intitolarlo ...e poi non rimase nessuno, ma il titolo non piacque, per cui nel 1977 si optò per gli indiani, ritenuti a torto o a ragione meno ipersensibili degli africani. Già al lavoro un comitato etico per rivedere e correggere il Mein Kampf ripulendolo da ogni allusione razzista, la nuova edizione si intitolerà Mein Garten e verterà sull'amore per i fiori e per il giardinaggio.

Headcanon that Neil is touching Andrew at any opportunity (with permission, of course)
Sitting in Andrew’s lap at Eden’s
A hand on Andrew’s thigh underneath the table at sweeties
Laying his head on Andrew’s shoulder during bus rides
Sitting on opposite sides of their couch with their feet tangled together
Sitting between Andrew’s legs on the floor during movie nights with the upperclassmen with his head resting on Andrew’s thigh
Sitting with his legs sprawled over Andrew’s when they’re in the Fox lounge
Holding hands on the center console of the car
Or having Andrew rest his hand on Neil’s thigh when they’re in the car
Laying his head in Andrew’s lap at any time since he knows Andrew likes playing with his hair
Laying his head on Andrew’s chest when they’re sleeping
Having Andrew sleeping practically on top of him on the couch
Holding his hand whenever he can
Basically Andreil just being in love, and neither of them are afraid to show it
#I woke up with andreil brainrot and i had to share it#I feel like both of their love languages are physical touch#like despite everything#they��re in love your honor#neil just loves andrew and he isn’t afraid to show it#aftg#all for the game#the foxhole court#the raven king#andrew minyard#the king’s men#neil josten#the foxes#andreil#aftg trilogy#andrew minyard x neil josten#demiromantic andrew minyard#demisexual neil josten#t4t andreil

i see a lot of people* who advocate for trans unity are just using a different term to hide their transmisogyny.
it’s not ‘trans unity’ if you can’t acknowledge that trans men aren’t the center of the universe and that trans women and their issues matter just as much.
it’s not ‘trans unity’ if you believe that trans women should kiss the feet of trans men and beg for their forgiveness for their alleged ‘misandry’ while completely ignoring the very real and very dangerous transmisogyny present in the trans and outer lgb community.
it’s not ‘trans unity’ if your idea for fixing the rift in the trans community is for trans women to shut the fuck up and do all the work.
it’s not ‘trans unity’ if you can’t even allow trans women to talk about the harm terfs do to them specifically without barging in and silencing them because “terfs are mean to us too so-!”. that’s not the point. trans women talking about their oppression isn’t hurting you, and it’s definitely not an invitation to fight them about it because you want to turn it into an argument about who has it worse.
it’s not ‘trans unity’ if your idea of trans unity is to have a community where trans women are just submissive and obedient, silent about the mistreatment they face either because they were silenced or because they never had a voice in the first place. you are already a part of that community. you already surround yourself with likeminded people who believe the same transmisogynistic things that you do. you don’t need to push a false idea of unity among trans people, it’s very clear what you believe in already, and we don’t need the entire trans community behaving like this.
#the people in question were of course already transmisogynists#i don’t know why they’re pretending they care about trans women#when they can’t even give the neutral nothing statement of ‘both sides need to change and do better’#no. they can’t say a single nice thing about trans women#it’s very clear what their purpose is by the language they use and the way they phrase their talking points#it’s never about equality or unity#it’s the same misogynistic attitude of your average incel with a ‘woke’ coat of paint#transmisogyny /

Terry McGinnis: Talk! What did you do to the cookie recipe! I got the chocolate chip walnut down but the other one is killing me!
Alfred Pennyworth, undisturbed: I don't know what you mean. It's all written down.
Terry: yes, in metric, and the eggs were weighed to the miligram for some reason! I chilled the dough, rolled them, chilled again to stop spread. I accounted for the Manor's colder ovens too!
Alfred: ...you said tea cookies, yes? Shortbread sandwiches with strawberry preserves?
Terry: yes. Bruce still talks about them. He can't make them either.
Alfred: Well. Even Master Bruce never quite understood the precision of proper British baked goods. Come along.
*opens up a pantry. Hands Terry a package of Jammy Dodgers*
Alfred: I suppose you will have to do legwork into an international market and research if any brands survived or changed their recipes for the next fifty years.
Terry: I'm going to go back to the future, resurrect you, then kill you.
#batman beyond#terry mcginnis#alfred pennyworth#Dc comics#Batfamily#Lazlo's lulls#Broke: Terry is the DCAU Jason Todd. Woke: Terry is the DCAU Nightwing. Bespoke: Terry is the next Alfred.#Hey what's that love language where you give someone an incorrect recipe#So they can't make it as good as you and they stick around?#anyway. goodnight

What is woke language? What does it mean and where did it originate?
The meaning of the word woke is ‘I woke up’ and in recent decades it has been associated with different movements against social injustice, but today many fear its impact. One of the most famous cases is that of billionaire Elon Musk , who in an interview claimed that his transgender daughter was killed by the woke virus: ” I was tricked into signing paperwork for one of my older children .” This…

Having a phobia of French language is not that Life Intrusive as someone who lives 2576478585 miles away from any Location that has any French influence whatsoever but the only truly annoying thing is the fact that i can’t listen to stromae anymore. I fucking loved stromae. There are a handful of French songs i can comfortably listen to and even enjoy mostly by francoise hardy or france gall (wow both France derivative names. Ironic) but for some reason stromae can’t pass the censors in my brain that turns the fight or fight response into overdrive
#and yes i do have a genuine phobia of French language like heart palpitations and instantaneous crying#and for some reason instantaneous sneezing. yes Aubrey is French#i studied French for two years and loved it then one day in college i woke up and had thr fear of French instilled into my body#im also terrified of horses owls and oven mitts. let’s chat about it

Alastor, got a fish-TV man :D
(I know that i draw them holding each other often lately, but hear me out- This one is based on my dream that i had-
Yes, i know i am obsessed with them enough to have a dreams about them XD
Anyway in that dream Vox is merman and get caught by hunters/ fishermans. Alastor, son of captain of the crew, become friend with Vox and decide to help him back to sea. As far as i remember Mimzy was there too, she took care of the rest of crew, so Al, could get Vox easily out and there was also Rosie who helped Alastor to get Vox out of fish tank and also there was Alastor's mother who wanted help too, so she took care of her husband.)

so normal about the gender fuckery of the Polish murderbot translation (lie i am on the verge of tears)
#it uses verb inflections that imply it/otherwise non-binary pronouns in first person#and it looks like in third person the translator went with#she pronouns when using security unit (bc the word unit is gendered female in polish)#and he pronouns when using Murderbot (bc the word robot is gendered male)#which... isn't ideal#but in a language this excessively gendered it was always going to be messy#and it's the first person verb endings that matter most bc you're reminded that mb's opinion on gender is No Thanks EVERY SENTENCE. !!!!!!!#the fact that the translator went with that instead of the easy route of he pronouns#(which are unfortunately kind of implied in the name Murderbot/Mordbot in polish since like i said robot/bot is gendered male)#is so so so important to me#(and ofc half the reviews for this translation include complaints about 'woke' verb endings 🙄 whatever)#.txt#books#murderbot

IT'S MY FAVORITE YAPPER DAY!!
- + ÷ × √ π
AKECHI TOUMA!
Now what I'm more excited to show is his birth flower(s)
Does September have two birth month flowers?
Yes! September has two birth month flowers, the morning glory and the aster. Which means another pretty flower to add to your bouquet. Yay! Asters are wonderfully vibrant wildflowers, ranging from white and red to pink and yellow. They'll easily brighten up any bouquet, especially during the autumn months!
Let's start with the asters first!
★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★
ASTER FLOWERS
Origins
The humble aster is a misunderstood flower. They're often confused with daisies, and some even consider them to be weedy because of how easily they grow. These little, dainty blooms have a big, rich history behind them and a Greek legend telling the story of how they got their name. Asters were named after the Greek word for ‘star’. Because, when the Greek legend Astraea, was upset by how few stars there were in the sky she started to cry. And where her tears hit the ground, they turned into asters. Cool story right?
★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★
Meaning and symbolism
In general, asters are considered to symbolize love, affection, and wisdom. In the Victorian flower language, they also carried the meaning of daintiness, patience, and charm. However, the specific color of an aster can change its meaning.
★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★
Flower language
Purple aster:
Purple asters, the most popular kind, denote wisdom and loyalty, royalty, dignity, admiration and respect.
White asters:
white asters are associated with innocence and purity.
Red asters:
Choosing red asters sends a message of undying devotion.
Pink asters:
pink asters conveying affection, love and sensitivity.
Blue asters:
Blue aster flowers represent trustworthiness and faithfulness. This makes them the perfect gift for a cherished friend or a loved one you trust implicitly.
The Japanese symbolism:
In Japanese culture, the aster flower represents the line
"I won't forget you."
★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★
And thats all the information i can provide! (*^▽^*)
Tell me what you think about this one? Should i do the next 5th of September flower (morning glory?)
Fun fact!
Did you know that because of asters happy, positive vibes, they were once used to ward off evil spirits and negative energy? So if you’re a superstitious person, having these pretty flowers around will definitely give you peace of mind.

Okay yeah I wasn't ever gonna be contained with just one post so, Callowmoore stuff that's on rotisserie in my brain from ep.94
Long and deep looks at each other and a hug right off the bat!
When asked by Laudna if they were okay in ep. 91, Ashton deflected with 'say that again?' and 'are any of us?', but when Fearne asks they give a genuine answer and then also ask her how she's feeling, because she's been quiet and they care
Ashton, despite hurting when they're touched and exhausted so the chronic pain is as intense as the first time, still wanting to cuddle with Fearne - and feeling at ease when they do
And like, the way they were trying to articulate it implies that they've wanted to ask for quite some time, but the timing has been off or situations have gotten in the way, and they don't want to wait any longer
But also they don't ask if they can cuddle they ask if Fearne wants to; they want to, but they ask Fearne if she doesn't want to sleep alone, because her comfort is as important or more important than their own
Fearne given her past experiences with people of course thinks they mean the other kind of company, which she notes she does want (so that's not off the table) but asks if they could just cuddle - to which Ashton doesn't entirely deny either, but notes that they're tired and in a lot of pain right now so they too was asking for the same
Also the fact that Fearne, who has been in a threesome inside a corrupted haunted wood, will later flirt with a dark echo of herself, and spooned with a ghost pirate captain, got so flustered about asking Ashton that she just wants to cuddle
Despite the awkwardness they still just laugh and joke together through it, they're awkward but it's in a sweet way
All of Ashton's immediate action the second they realised Fearne was missing - similar to how they wanted to find her after the shard incident but this time in a position where they could take action - no nonsense, no pissing contest with Chetney about her scent being on their bed, "Find. Them. Now."
And then still being soft after seeing Fearne again, because all that matters right now is that she's still here. And another post I saw said it better but, Ashton never seeks to change or 'correct' parts of who Fearne is; she can still follow cute animals just next time bring a buddy along (which given how they were in bed together would imply meaning them), they love her for her, fae and all, they just want her to be safe
Not entirely ep. 94 but given how on 91 Ashton pointed out that they needed to sleep and 'figure out who they wanted to be', and then here ask Fearne to be there beside them so they could have someone to wake up to, it to me at least says a lot about what Ashton has already decided; and how despite both of them having dealt with grief and anger and helplessness by bottling it up, hiding away, and shouldering it alone, this time they both wanted to just feel at ease with each other
#callowmoore#ashton greymoore#fearne calloway#fearne x ashton#ashton x fearne#ashley johnson#taliesin jaffe#critical role#cr3#cr3 spoilers#c3e94#cr spoilers#bells hells#did I mention that I'm not normal about them because AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA#shipper rotisserie brain go brrrrr#Orym's passive perception 'damnnn' was great too#I have been praying for 5 weeks for just a tiny bit of comfort between the two and I got a whole buffet!#I mean I trust Matt and narratively it was juicy but c'mon man you couldn't give them one night? The night of FCG blowing up??#I wonder: if Ashton was the big spoon would they have woke up with Fearne to join the walk/fight?#I ofc wish they returned to the same bed but she was extra exhausted - next time hopefully#Zathuda still needs to die - painfully - maybe they can do it together; steal his dragon and fancy cloak#Ludinus too - live show's a big stage (half expect Sam to debut his new player then) big post-fight kiss at Aeor maybe/please?#hopefully we can also see them pickpocketing each other again because it's their love language#but so is the softness and comfort and awkward giggling and innuendo#which is why I hate that most villains tend to look past/through Ashton - they don't see them but Fearne sees them; they see each other#tag reader bonus - Ashton always sleeps on Fearne's right: so she can see/poke their glass slab but also so their stone arm doesn't cut her
