"As feminists have often patiently explained, 'family values' is just code for male domination. If protecting male privilege conflicts with protecting families, Republicans will choose the former. That's why Trump's status as a thrice-married chronic adulterer has never been a problem for the party of 'family values.'"

Justin Horowitz at MMFA:

Project 2025 advisory board members have attacked or outright called for the end of no-fault divorce, the option to dissolve a marriage without having to prove wrongdoing by a partner. Research highlighted by CNN found “no-fault divorce correlates with a reduction in female suicides and a reduction in intimate partner violence,” including “an 8 to 16% decrease in female suicides after states enacted no-fault divorce laws.” Project 2025 is backed by a nearly-900 page policy book called Mandate for Leadership, which extensively outlines potential approaches to governance for the next Republican administration, including replacing federal employees with extremists and Trump loyalists and attacking LGBTQ rights, abortion, and contraception. The Heritage Foundation’s proposals have a track record of success — the first Trump administration implemented 64% of Mandate’s policy recommendations. Project 2025 is also supported by a coalition of over 100 conservative organizations, many of which have spent years promoting critiques of no-fault divorce as “destructive” for society — or even blaming it for enabling a “culture of death.” According to a Media Matters review, at least 22 Project 2025 advisory board members have made similar comments targeting, restricting, or eliminating no-fault divorce. Additionally, MAGA and far-right media figures have pushed for the removal of no-fault divorce laws across the country, and several local Republican parties in Texas, Nebraska, and Louisiana have called for the dissolution of no-fault divorce in some capacity.

Project 2025 partner organizations, including the American Family Association, Concerned Women for America, Family Research Council, and The Heritage Foundation, have called for significant restrictions or an outright ban on no-fault divorce.

"It seems you've had quite a life..." - Ema Skye, 6-5 Day 1 Investigation

[phoenixkaptain]

Everytime I think about Obi-Wan and Anakin it’s like- I don’t ship them so much as I think they should be together at all times. I think tcw had a point, actually, and the two of them should just. Always be together. I think Anakin is Obi-Wan’s hope in an increasingly difficult life and I think Obi-Wan is Anakin’s tie to humanity when he most feels like a monster. They are intrinsically combined, from the very first movie where Obi-Wan dies at Vader’s hands with a peaceful expression.

It’s Obi-Wan begging Luke not to see Anakin in Vader while Vader searches Luke to see some sign of Obi-Wan. It’s Obi-Wan calling Anakin another pathetic lifeform to Obi-Wan being unable to process the idea of Anakin being anything but good. It’s Anakin awkwardly (adorably) shaking Obi-Wan’s hand to Anakin awkwardly (adorably) bringing up Obi-Wan during conversations with the woman he wants to seduce.

It’s Obi-Wan knowing how to fix Artoo and Obi-Wan teasing Anakin about Artoo. It’s Anakin’s first thought on losing his lightsaber being “Obi-Wan’s going to be mad at me again” and Anakin laughing when Obi-Wan tells him to drive better.

The prequel trilogy is so fascinating because my favourite parts are always Anakin and Obi-Wan. The parts I think about the most often are those parts with Anakin and Obi-Wan. The relationship between these two drives the entirety of the plot of the prequels, to the point that the literal birth mother of the main characters of the original trilogy is all but forgotten in the third movie.

It’s. Obi-Wan spending years watching over Luke because Luke reminds him of Anakin, never approaching because what if Luke really does turn out to be like Anakin…?

It’s Vader assuming that Obi-Wan taught Luke to fight, because who else could teach a Skywalker?

It’s Obi-Wan accepting all the blame for the people he knew best, the people who were basically his family, all dying.

It’s Vader keeping Obi-Wan’s lightsaber in a parallel to Obi-Wan keeping Anakin’s.

They are just. Mutually Obsessed. Obi-Wan held up Anakin and said “this is my whole personality now” and Anakin responded with “neato, same.” They bicker like an old married couple. Anakin can’t imagine even thinking about leaving Obi-Wan behind. Obi-Wan tells Anakin point-blank that he’s a good Jedi who deserves to be a Master.

I ship them because like. The universe? Does?? They are destined to be by each other, in life and in death. They support and sustain each other. There was probably eepy Force magic stuff that made Anakin into a Force ghost because Obi-Wan wanted him to be one.

How else can I explain it? They were made for each other. Like. Literally. They should never be separated. Look what happened when they did separate in universe. They are a nuclear bomb. They have to stay together or the galaxy gets the worst of it, and that’s just canon, somehow.

Calling yourself a radfem and then trying to justify being in a sexual relationship with mEn because he agrees with your beliefs just doesn’t get me.

Not only are you stupid, but also too oblivious of male nature to be a radfem!!

Of course, he doesn’t mind you not shaving your body hair! Of course, he is gender critical and is okay with you not putting on makeup and rejecting femininity! Of course, you talk about how much you hate men and he, being a man, nods in agreement with every negative thing you say about his own gender.

But not because he is some rare kind of his breed who surprisingly have common sense, but because he doesn’t give a fuck about anything as long as you are giving him what he needs — SEXUAL FAVOURS!!!!

No matter how many times you try to tell yourself (and others) that heterosexual relationships benefit both men and women because both are gaining pleasure, you will always be wrong!

Men are not like women. They do not care about healthy, casual intimacy as they do not have any romantic interest in you. Men are creepy, sex-starved creatures who are desperate for sex.

Men have been raping women since the dawn of time. Even when this toxic beauty culture wasn’t a norm, men would rape women; women with body hair, women without makeup, women they'd find attractive, women they’d not find attractive.

So don’t assume your so called boyfriend — or worst, husband — is in love with you. Take away the sex from the table for a whole 1 year and he will take away himself from your life.

"Casual sex benefits both men and women" is the biggest lie made up by the leftist side of the patriarchy sold to women. And as long as you’re buying into their shit, you are not fully awakened to call yourself a radfem.

And the worst part of all of this is the fact that your standards are so beneath the core of the earth.

Learn to value yourself!! And as i always say, raise your standards to a level so high that you come to a point where you realise none of these men deserve you.

I think we should stop giving Lance family problems and instead give everyone else family problems and then drag him into all of them as universe's most unpaid and unqualified therapist. As god intended

i guess it's all building castles in the air about a character who only appears in flashbacks but i don't really get interpretations that claim shou's mom ~abandoned~ him when "lost the equivalent of a nasty custody battle with her supervillain ex husband and went behind his back anyway to at least stay in touch with her kid" feels like the much more obvious conclusion to come to about that whole situation given his dad's line about not "letting" shou see her

anyway i can admit i'm biased because i think shou, 13-year-old who sees himself as a responsible adult, suddenly having to deal with a parent who actually wants to be in his life As A Parent is a hysterical dynamic. he moves in with her like "so what do i owe you for my part of rent" and she's like "shou 1) you are my middle school aged son and 2) i own the house." there's a thematic argument to be made obviously vis a vis mob psycho 100's insistence on showing you genre-typical kids carrying the weight of the world on their shoulders and taking you by the chin and going "look. look. that's a child." but mostly i want to see shou ask his mom how they should revise the chore wheel he used with his adult lackeys to be fair for two people and her mentally screech to a halt and think maybe her plan to give him an allowance in case he wants to see a movie or something is not the biggest issue they need to deal with

Hey. If you are legally married to an abusive partner. If you believe your legal spouse will become abusive in the future. If you feel at all unsafe with your spouse. Or even if you are thinking of ending the marriage for a totally mundane reason:

Start taking steps to divorce them NOW.

I'm not saying you should leave now without a plan. Having a safety plan is still important. Having support people who can help you leave safely is still important. Keeping yourself safe is still important. But if you've been thinking about leaving or have been making plans, you may want to move up your timeline.

No-fault divorce may be one of the things on the chopping block under Tr*mp's new regime. For those who don't know, these are the laws that allow couples to divorce even if no one is "at fault" for the failure of the marriage. This made it much easier to get a divorce in the USA, and made it easier and safer for victims of domestic violence to leave their abusers. Conservatives want to return to a fault divorce system, which would require the person filing for divorce to prove their spouse wronged them in some way, such as by having an affair.

TLDR: M*GA wants to make it harder to get a divorce, which is going to trap people in unsafe marriages.

If you are married to an abusive partner, or even to partner you just don't want to be with, I encourage you to file for divorce as soon as possible. ESPECIALLY if you are a woman or femme. Get out now, while it's relatively easy and simple to do so.

If you're scared of how your spouse will react to being left, contact your local domestic violence org and ask for someone to help you make a safety plan. These are trained professionals who can help you get out safely.

And not to put too fine a point on it, but what little government aid does exist for American DV survivors right now is probably going to lose funding or be shut down entirely in conservative areas. Just another reason it's a good idea to leave now if at all possible.

(Disclaimer: I am not an expert on politics, but I AM someone who has worked in domestic violence and sexual assault response and who has read what actual expert political analysts have written about Tr*mp and Pr*ject 2025.)
