each of my URLs have an little story behind it.... indulge if you are interested
nauticalradical: i was really interested in sea life and noticed my powerful connection to water things at this time in my life. nautical beings were super cool, super rad, to me. the -ical endings together sounded nice to me
geocashier: my oc was a robot specifically programmed to be a retail worker, mostly put at the cashier. idk where the Geo came from, sounded cool
schizofunny: RECENTLY DIAGNOSED. play on the PH in -phrenia being the EF sound. trying to destigmatize schizophrenia being something scary for the people on the Other end of a schizophrenic person. also i was on a funny streak
puppymush: obsessed with results from google and youtube when you would search "puppy mush". aww so cutes small dogs eating solid food for the first time is always ridiculously endearing. allso dog fursona and Mush could be interpretted as another word for Gruel
horrorofthebeast: was just obsessed with saying this phrase to myself at the time and badass name
ipodtouch-free: virus laden ad love phase, but also a filler url for new account. a very short lived url i dont think anyone remembers
whitetippedtail: i made a lyric about a dog with a white tipped tail and had a lot of thinking about its symbolism to me, also short lived
spoolofthreat: play on words of the phrase "spool of thread", i made this phrase up when thinking of a new password i had to make for my work schedule login which requires us to make a brand new password every 3 months.
wolf1999loveatfirstbite: i've had this phrase bouncing around in my head during one of my "random phrases my brain is obsessed with repeating over and over again bc it sounds rlly nice". inspired by early internet username handles in which the number meant something like year of birth or favorite number. love at first bite should go without saying its a play on words of another phrase "love at first site" but its wolves and wolves love biting. wolves bc i like them
if you cared i love you, if you didnt care i love all haters for real. keep on truckin, haters <3

monthly reset
hi everyone! since it’s the end of the month, i thought i’d tell you what i do at the end of every month, to prepare for the new month :)
brain dump tasks for the month ahead
this includes any events I have, such as a party, someone's birthday, important deadlines or exam dates, as well as the revision I want to get done in the month.
organise my calendar
i use multiple calendars to keep myself organised. first, i use ical and a physical calendar for birthdays and parties/events. then I use google calendar to time block my week out, adding in when I'm at school, my morning routine, study sessions, workout sessions and my free time. to organise my revision, I have a separate monthly study planner from emmastudies.com that I fill out. i have this above my desk on my corkboard, which helps me to know what revision I have to do on any given day.
set goals
to do this i look at my yearly goals (which i have on my yearly notion page), and then i decide how my yearly goal can be broken down into an achievable yet challenging monthly goal. for example, one of my yearly goals this year is to learn german, so one of my recurring monthly goals is to do german on duolingo daily. as I'm doing my a levels this year, my german study isn't too intensive, but once I've sat my exams in the summer I'll increase how much I study german.
tidy my environment
to bring in the new month it's super important to have a clean and tidy environment. for me, this means clearing any clutter off my desk, vacuuming my bedroom, cleaning my windows, windowsill, mirror and makeup brushes. i also like to tidy my clothes shelves and make sure everything is folded nicely, as well as my underwear and socks in my drawers. don't forget to change your bedsheets as well!
self-care
my favourite thing to do is have an everything shower and do my skincare routine, so I can get into my nice fresh bed all clean :) I also love to go to bed a little bit earlier than I usually do, and read for a little while before going to sleep.

hello helioshelion.. i wonder what ur thoughts are on majima's (absence of) backstory up until age 20 and how u deal with it canon compliant-ically or in aus. i find it frustrating like everyone else but at the same time any kind of explanation people come up with to fill in the gaps doesnt land for me... i am unsure why. maybe becuase theres so little to go off so its basically entirely made up? or maybe because its not in the vein of his character? anyway i think you are the yakuza man so i would like to know what u think happened in that time. snake eyes is kind of narratively satisfying to me because patriarchs being father figure adjacent and imparting traits and shaping their subordinates is the closest thing to kind of. growing up i think?? that majimas story has. so having sagawa and shimanos influence transposed onto his actual developmental years actually feels like the most character accurate backstory to me even if it is removed from canon. (i dontknow very much sorry if i got anything wrong) butyeah anyway love ur models im like OH SHIT!!!! HES FUCKING MAKING!!!!!!!! ok thats it have a good daaaaayyy
I think what's important and vital to this narrative is for Majima to not be the central focus. Of course I believe the most interesting concept for Snake Eyes is Majima's exploration and coming into his own in a way that justifies who he is within what we DO know of his past, aka Y4 and 0. I believe it is within Dead Souls' cabaret where Majima tells the hostess that if he could go back to any time to redo things, it'd be 14, and therefore it's where I landed on a timeframe- the moment Majima meets Shimano. I believe Majima is at his best as a character who is reactive, but not focused on. He is entirely a character who is shaped by the people around him, both within the lore and within the meta itself, he is not the main character. He is swayed and changed by the events around him, with little to no control in changing this, because he is simply an NPC, and that's the small tragedy of Majima. A character who is so strongly tied to the idea of control, of shaping his own future, when really he has no agency, not within the narrative, not within the game. Anyways, that is the central focus on Snake Eyes. What kind of man Shimano Futoshi is, and by extension, what that says about Majima Goro as a boy. Is there any parallels I can make between the men Majima would later on follow in life and the man he swore his name to? I wrote earlier about agency, and that's something I think that's very important to Shimano's character as well. Present day, you wouldn't exactly compare Shimano to Kiryu, or Saejima, but that's what I find to be the most interesting thing to explore- if I can make a case that there are those similarities, what would change so drastically that Shimano would become the man you see in the series. Sagawa is merely a pawn in this exploration, just the same as he is a pawn in 0. I really enjoy connecting narrative within gameplay. Majima's a stone in the tide, I'd say, stuck on the bottom to be shaped over years and years and years.
So yeah! Snake Eyes is about Shimano, and how he changes the people around him, and how that changes him. Uroboros or whatever.
I think what's funny is that despite being the AU guy, I try to keep myself strictly to canon compliancy, and the things I do change I need to justify. Like me making the decision to have Sagawa be Yasuko Saejima's birth father. We knew her dad was an Omi man in Sotenbori, and that he was money focused. It was a loose comparison, but the idea of exploring that was so interesting to me. Yakuza is all about fatherhood sometimes, so why not.
Majima's character in Snake Eyes, again, meant to justify who he is later on, but also I do not want this idea of Majima being wholly good and brought into evil. I do not think it's black and white. There's something in Majima that was probably there long before Shimano, something that brought him to the point that men like him were to be followed. In the right light, even the worst actions can be seen as heroic, justified, admirable, especially to a kid. Kind of like Ichiban, I guess!
Another funny thing is that I tend to steer away from the idea of Majima needing a backstory. I believe how he is is perfectly suitable and fine for who he is. I do not want to see where he grew up, but I do like using implications to paint an idea of how and why he is who he is. It's sort of why I have an OC who exists as Majima's birth father in Snake Eyes, meant to sort of paint this all literally. Discarding this past for the sake of the role you are meant to play. Maybe it's a nihilist perspective, but I believe Snake Eyes is a nihilist's story. It's a perfect parallel for Forever Yours, an optimistic exploration of fatherhood and how that shapes a person.
This was a lot. hope you enjoy to read.

Thanks for the tag @goodpointsandbadpoints!! :)
When did you start writing?
I have a notebook from when I was maybe... 5? with a story in it haha that actually was even whump before I redacted that part sjdjsds. Pretty much the second I learned to read and write I was obsessed with it lolol. Just always been an English major at heart smh 😭
It was very occasional when I was a kid, but I've had ongoing WIPs since middle school when I got a phone and could write them on the bus haha. Was mostly original stuff then, but there was a lot of it.
Are there different themes or genres you enjoy reading than what you write?
I'm uncertain what this question is asking exactly, but I don't think they differ? I tend to gravitate towards the hurt/comfort content and unfortunately have not read enough non-school novels lately to have a clear answer...
Is there a writer you want to emulate or get compared to often?
I don't think so! And lol I don't know if I've ever been compared to anyone either. I do like the punchy wry-smug-sarcastic character narration that was a staple in a lot of my favorite books as a teen, but I can't name anyone in specific haha.
Can you tell me a bit about your writing space?
Lol. It varies 🤷‍♀️ usually at my slightly-messy desk locked away in my room, but sometimes in bed on my phone 😭
I like to be comfortable, and I have a weird hang-up about people looking over my shoulder so I don't ever really relax and get into a flow if I'm out in public.
What's your most effective way to muster up a muse?
My brain is a hamster on an endless wheel so it just kinda... happens. I'll do something or say something or watch something or hell, talk about something, and suddenly there's just an idea to work with. Fragments, of course, but usually talking it over with someone helps shape it into something write-worthy.
Are there any recurring themes in your writing? Do they surprise you?
Hurt/comfort, for one; particularly unwavering physical comfort from a caretaker character to another that's just too out of it to even do anything for themself. I like that sort of hazy half-conscious headspace in any way it appears, so I guess maybe themes of consciousness...? Not choosing to delve into the hut/comfort part but something something taking care of someone who can't let anyone do it any other way. Rescue, protectiveness, body horror, loss of control/autonomy/clarity, etc. usually show up a lot too. Laughing even though things hurt/even though there's really no reason to be laughing. I've discovered that every character I write usually ends up having a very wry sense of humor/smiling when it's not really appropriate, at least until I determine whether or not it actually fits them as a character lol.
What is your reason for writing?
I would die if I didn't!
How do you want to be thought about by your readers?
I just want them to like it as much as I do. Do my best to convey the vision in my head as vividly as I can I guess, and I want them to think of me as someone who can do that... if that makes any sense at all. This is a hard question!
What do you feel is your greatest strength as a writer?
I think my technicality and syntax-ical (?) ability is definitely what I always work to improve, and I think I have a fairly decent understanding of the flow of writing. I think I'm also very creative!
How do you feel about your own writing?
It's pretty good. Could be better; not always my best work, but I have some good ideas in there that I really am proud of :)
When you write, are you influenced by what others might enjoy reading, or do you write purely for yourself, or a mix of both?
Usually it's just for myself I guess? Maybe for people I talk to, I sometimes do a little for them, but I don't think I'd write anything my heart wasn't already in haha.
Tagging @thebrandywine @fonulyn @colesabi @resident-rats @samblerambles @velkyr @sleeplesstories (I think you write...??? sorry if not sdhsdhs) @achingheart-gentlehands (same to you sdjsjds) and uhhhh I guess anyone else who wants to join in! No pressure and I apologize sincerely if I've forgotten you I promise it wasn't on purpose lolol

M.r Magnus I wish I could jsut call you Jonag
Can Icall you Jonah. I like that name its a nice first name. Fid you knownmy nqme isn't actually Lena? ait was origially spelled Leena like with two ees but my mum said brits wojldnt be able to pronoucne that righy so she changee it to Lena eith one e...I misst the oth3r pronounciation the way my dad usee to pronounce it it was better. Feltb more like me
Anyeqys thats nto what I wanted to say I wanted to say you're really nice to me and I ddon't know why!!!! And I want to be youe friend, for realsies...I don't knowww I don't have any other friebds I just can't cannlt connect with peiple. Thee way other people do. Thinkt ehe's somethkng wrong with my brain. Badly. But if I coule be friendw with anhone I would want it to eb you. And not just flr tve datq
Regafs,
Lens Kelly, Office if Incdient Assemsnet and Repsine
I—thank you, I like my name rather a lot too. Given I'm now open about it... I suppose there's no point to avoid saying that I chose it myself, and so I appreciate the compliment even more. You may call me Jonah, and I hope that I am in turn permitted to call you whichever version of your first name you would prefer to me to use? Your name—and especially the original spelling of it—is lovely as well.
As to why I am nice to you—well, I try to make a habit of being at least polite to most people until they've done something to grievously offend me, for one. But... I don't know. I recognise something in you that is also in me, the same as when I'd first met Jonathan. And, just the same, I feel... fond of you much quicker than I would for most others.
I would be happy to be your friend, I think.

Thoughts on musicals? I know you two aren't big fans of music, but I feel like musicals are a bit more than just that.
And, unrelated to the first question, if I wanted to, I would talk about The jar, but quite honestly, I think it's funnier if it's a mystery:3
-☾
L:
overall, i don't hate musicals, but i'm not fond of them either. they're just not my cup of tea.
some of them have stories that i really enjoy, like The Phantom of the Opera, but i only ever really care about the stories. i never pay much attention to the music. i think the only musical with songs that i've found myself drawn to was Les Misérables. now that i think about it, that musical has some of the only tunes that i'll hum to. "Master of the House" is probably my favorite. i quite liked it.
though i still prefer plays. i just think they're easier to latch onto.
and about the jar... what mystery is there to uncover, dear astro-non-ical? it's just a simple glass jar. no malicious intent unbeknownst to light-kun whatsoever.
and even if there was, he'd never have enough internet knowledge to figure it out. :)
Light:
I'll be honest with you. I've never actually watched a musical before---do you know how long those things are? I did want to, but I could never find time to watch it...
So I don't really have an opinion on it. Yet. I've heard of the more famous ones, like those Ryuzaki's mentioned, but not much. I just know their titles.
And, please. Tell. Me. About. The. Jar.

:33 < rant
:33 < being a system is just.... so scary. i constantly have mental breakdowns, idont permit "myself" to look at "me" in the mirror, idont know who "i"am because iam not me. its a group of people. it feels so insane, like im not real. people call me by my name in which idont realise iam me or at least supposed to be. ihave so much confusion in life, so much amnesia and unawareness, its crazy. i just want to be freed and alone. we dont particularly like each other either. icant stare at myself normally. i seem to have to have a mental breakdown. ifeel so out of place. so abnormal. the others themselves get scared. we barely know who we are. am i the host ? really ?? did the actual host go dormant years ago ?? i question this daily because it dosent seem like im the actual me more like a fake version, or a figment of the original. a place holder. yea sure, icall myself the original, but am i really ?? maybe buzy knows, but then again buzy also is a little.... much. shes trying to.... well idont really wanna say it so yea. she wouldnt exactly be of much help. maybe all the others named s ? imeannnn theyre kinda the same as buzy. and its not exactly like we talk to eachother. imean yea, our headspace is super boring, but we kinda enjoy being alone and dont talk to eachother so iguess. thats. alright. idont know im probably just gonna stop this

Apps I Use For Uni
All are available in the App Store (not sure about Google Play)
Notion
mainly used for note-taking
Google Cal/iCal
deadlines, test dates, etc.
schedule study sessions
track personal appointments/events
Tweek (similar to TeuxDeux but free)
to-do list
Habitica
habit tracker, to-do list, and routine tracker but gamified (I use this when I feel like I’m not doing well so I can see myself “levelling-up” and “gaining experience points” and feel like I’m actually doing good in life)
Now Then
time tracker (Not really essential, but cool to see how much studying I do. It takes a while to get into the habit of tracking stuff.)
Flora
to prevent myself from constantly checking my phone (You can even “bet” money, so if you do get distracted on your phone, the money gets donated. It’s like an incentive to study and not get distracted so you don’t lose money.)
Spotify
study music
raining sounds for sleep
Knowt
free (and in my opinion, better) version of Quizlet (You can import your notes and have an AI automatically make flashcards for you. It saved me SO MUCH time making flashcards!)

what would happen if all of your secret goobers played among us. what, you asked for silly question
That is a very silly question! Thanks Anon. I feel like I should list out what all of my characters would do in this situation...however...
*EMERGENCY MEETING!
Sketchit: SOMEONE -KLL- KILLED FREDDE-E!
*The crowd of peiple show their shock and grief at the loss of Fredde-E
Eyes: Well Ms Sk-e-3-etchit, I don't think we have enough evidence to say wh-o-0 would kill Fredde-E at this time...maybe we should ski-
Funn: YOU DID IT!!!!
*She points her claw arm at Hattyr
Hattyr: Wha-Me??? I was doin' the card swipe!!!
Funn: DON'T LIE TO ME! YOU'VE BEEN A SUSPECT THE MOMENT THIS GAME STARTED.
*Funn flashbacks to Hattyr bumping into her and spilling her tea
Eyes: FUNN! Funn, I kn-0-ow you don't like Mr Hattyr, but we shouldn't vote h-1-im out!
Funn: FINE! THEN I'LL JUST KILL HIM MYSELF!!!
Hattyr: OH I'LL SHOW YOU!!!
*Funn gets voted out before the two start brawling
Funn, from the void of space: YOU BI-
*The Game goes on, Sketchit and Eyes go to Electrical to do tasks, Sadedown goes to Medbay, Tumbal stays where he was at spawn, and Hattyr and Inkwel buddy up to go to Reactor.
Sketchit: Hmmm... everyone here is very -ssu- suspicious so far...I don't have any leads as to who the Imposter could -eb- be yet...
Eyes: yeah...m-e-3-e neither...should I really..?
Sketchit: Hmm?
*Eyes starts to grow lankier and his eyes sink into their sockets. His mouth breaks and reshapes into a twisted grin.
Sketchit: Snake...YOU WERE-
*Snake quickly kills Sketchit before she can say another word and vents away.
*Inkwel and Hattyr find the body, Hattyr reports it.
Hattyr: Me and the rabbit found the weird purple lady dead in Electrical.
Inkwel: Wait...wa n't yes with Sk tchi in Elect ical..?
Snake: 1 HAVEN'T S3EN 3Y3S AT ALL...
Hattyr: . . .Snake...when did you get here...?
Tumbal: ...I TRUST {There's a Snake in my boot!} ...HE DOS NOT GET IN THE WAY OF MY {Shot} ING...
Sadedown: YeAh...TuMbAl Is RiGhT...sNaKe Is InNoCeNt...
Hattyr: ....Alright...are we skippin' ?
Inkwel: Wait... ou were in Ca s, w rent you..? The e's a ven in th re...seems s spious...
Hattyr: Oh come on! I was figurin' out how the damned cameras worked. No way I could have-
*Hattyr was thrown off. Not the Imposter.
*Sadedown and Snake go to Admin while Inkwel goes to Navigations. Someone cut the air supply!
Sadedown: HuH..?
Snake: DON'T K3EP THE DEV1L WAITING, S1NNER...
Sadedown: WAIT NO-
*Snake swiftly kills Sadedown and pretends to fix the 02...The Imposter wins...
So, how was that? I felt in the mood to do some rp for an ask and I thought it was pretty fun. Hope you enjoyed this silly little answer, Anon.

I just realized:
My chart ruler the Moon and the planet aspecting it via opposition (Mercury)
Have a Libra degree,
And an Aries degree,
Respectively.
Tumblr media
I think this is interesting because those signs oppose each other
And I already have that Virgo/Pisces axis activated with my Mercury/Moon placed there
The way this has played out for me in real life is having polarized feelings toward both Libra/Aries
But not so much with Virgo/Pisces which can again bring in the relevance of degrees in astrology
Alright this is just my theory:
Tumblr media
There’s nothing wrong with Libras but I personally seem to run into trouble with them due to placements in my chart
I think it’s because Venus rules Libra and the most harmful aspect in my chart is that to my Venus (and Jupiter)
You would think I would feel the same way about Taurus right? Since Venus also rules Taurus
But contrare!
I adore the f*ck out of Taurus moons mannn, just Taurus energy in general as long as they like me too
Taurus suns will always despise me though 🤷🏻‍♀️ [leo sun square mars Taurus probably why]
Mars does more constructive shit at night for me as a night charter and because it’s placed in Taurus, I think that is why I tend to get along better with them moreso than Libra
My point being:
The rulers of the degrees are important bc those are also houses (ex-Libra 4th house still has a maltreated ruler like the libra degree on a planet does)
Natives with harsh aspects from malefic contrary to sect (Saturn opposition night chart// Mars opposition day chart) are going to probably have troubles with the harmed planets’ signs it rules (Jupiter being opposed by Mars? Jupiter is being mistreated—so Possibly with Sag and Pisces)
Tumblr media
Back to my point of having polarized opinions on Libra/Aries?
I think it comes down to sect—Aries is associated with malefic of sect in favor whereas Libra is associated with malefic contrary to sect
But to be clear:
I love Aries
Tumblr media
Also though maybe I don’t get along with Libras bc I’m actually extremely Libra-like myself and cannot stand to see it in others, lmao. Bc my chart ruler does have a Libra degree so I’m probably blind to how I really am 🤷🏻‍♀️
Tumblr media
Thanks for listening to my nonsense-ical babbling if you made it this far.
I think the point of the story is:
Aspects in your chart can determine your affinity for certain signs as well as if you guys get along. And the sect can determine who you’ll get along with better.
Obviously each person is unique and has more to them than one sign,
But like I have noticed a pattern in my life of running into issues with certain signs.
I have Jupiter opposing Saturn in a night chart too and can confirm that at least 3 Sag-heavy men have broken my f*cking heart but that doesn’t even seem relevant cause it’s like join the f*cking club amirite.

i never considered sex also being a social construct, and when you pointed that out, (ESP W THE USE OF DWORKINS QUOTE OMFG) it literally blew my mind, including the fact we don’t know what a society looks like outside of patriarchy. i’m having some trouble tho w homosexuality as a social construct. did you mean that in a way where the term and idea of homosexuality is a social construct bc all love is the same, and shouldn’t be classified as such bc of the fact we think its “different”?
also totally unrelated to the specific topic but still on the basis of radical feminism, how do you keep pushing? lately i’ve been feeling like its so hopeless bc i hardly see any significant change happening in the western world, one of the biggest examples is like how u said everyone wants to defend the status quo, and that contributes to my feelings of “im only one person i cant change it all by myself in my community and inspire others to do the same so i should just give up”. i know i won’t really be able to go back to how blissfully ignorant i once was :’) and that’s probably what keeps me from leaving rad feminism bc there’s just so much truth in it and i know i’d rather me and every other human in the world be liberated than give in and live a life with even more misery but there’s still times where i have those thoughts of complying and it just sucks. i gave up my skincare routine (now its just cleanser and moisturizer & the occasional sunscreen if might be out in the sun), makeup, fashion marketed towards women, porn, FANFICTION 😭, crushing on men, dating men, and even being friends w men. i didn’t give up my libido but it disappeared on its own bc of everything i continue to learn. i realize how deep misogyny is in our society and culture and just want to isolate myself from everyone. I CANT RUN FROM IT NO MATGER WHAT THO……💔
for homosexuality as a social construct; kind of. if sex is a social construct (i.e., the categories of male & female don't exist outside of society), it follows that sexuality is as well-- especially because the social construct of women & man are packaged with expectations of submission (to man), pregnancy, confinement to the home, and domination (of women), all but the last trait for women. in patriarchal mythos the class of people defined as "women" are supposed to be heterosexual, and the same goes for men.
the only context which heterosexuality exists in is under patriarchy, so it's impossible to untangle from bioessentialistic complementarianism. similarly, homosexuality is also a construct of patriarchy, albeit a positive subversion / defiance of the heterosexual structure of relationships. but when sex is eventually abolished, and men + women no longer exist, current classifications of sexuality will disintegrate with them. instead of 'man attracted to woman' or 'women attracted to other women', we will just have people liking people, & relationships formerly regarded as homosexual will no longer suffer a stigma compared to heterosexual ones.
if we argue that people are just "born" as heterosexual or gay without investigating what in society makes hetero or homosexuality so appealing or alien & disturbing (the patriarchy), we concede that homosexuals are naturally unnatural (in that, so little of the world is bisexual or gay or asexual under patriarchy, and this is not because of patriarchy, but "nature". therefore, the order of patriarchy is made acceptable through naturalization.)
-
ANYWAYS, onto your more important question... resisting mental domination, as bell hooks put it. unfortunately this is the hardest thing to answer as i myself haven't even gotten it down yet :') i relate to what you're saying so much, and a lot of other radfems do, so know that you're not alone even if it feels that way.
if i could talk to myself when i first Rad(fem)icalized, i would say... don't be too hard on yourself. we're all suffering from a lifetime of gendered socialization which basically amounts to self harm for women 💀 i went Ham with the radfem stuffs, giving up makeup & sexualized fashion & shaving, and it was relatively easy for me since i was already quite gnc & angry lol, but.
while i think it's good to give up much of that stuff, the world's not gonna explode if you struggle or give yourself some exceptions. don't let up on anything that gets in the way of your personal/political liberation, at least not for a long time, but. don't let people online jerk you around or make you feel like you're a bimbo for wearing makeup or whatever. some internet terfs can be reallyyy misogynistic if you adhere to gender roles or. don't hate trans people.
when you feel angry, don't turn it inward. it's something women & gender minorities do way too much. if you're not comfortable expressing it, though i think expressing it "unhealthily' (screaming at someone, breaking a plate) is better than pointing it at yourself, find a healthy and / or productive way to release it. we are trying to avoid this aspect of female socialization ↓
Tumblr media
it's also mega important to remember that... it's easy to think men don't understand the patriarchy, but they do. the thing is, though, they don't give women grace for struggling with sexist socialization and use it as "proof" that women are actually inferior. women who are aware of the patriarchy but have no faith in other women do this as well. have faith in other women. have faith in trans people. have faith in gay & bi people. their liberation is tantamount to your own. and i don't mean individual gender minorities who are assholes... just don't let those assholes make you lose faith in these groups as a whole.
honestly i feel like there's a lot more i could say but idk, don't want to bury you in words lol. feel free to send more asks or message me if there's anything i can elaborate on or help you with! or even if you just need someone to talk to. much love, anon :') 🫶

This greenie seems very delusional. Like why would Grrm want helaemond to be canon in the show when he wrote by himself that Aemond never bothered saving helaena when the blacks have taken kingslanding despite he literally has the biggest dragons of that time? Why when the fandom were analysing the story of the dance that was in the Rouge Prince, the Princess And the Queen,and F&B through all of these years 2015,2017,2018,2019,2020,2021 Nobody literally notice any possibility of "tragic love story" between the two. No fanfic exist of this ship before the show. So I don't how greenis talk with this kind of confidence that this will happen. Also is even Grrm involved in the show atp? Was he ever?
The post in question:
Tumblr media
I'd like to see these pre-production scripts myself, especially since GRRM said that he'd have less involvement in the show's final production:
But right now, Ryan Condal’s focus is on HOT D season two, and mine is on THE WINDS OF WINTER.
Like I want details. What exactly is GRRM consulting Condal on, and how much power does he really have to make them change a critical plot point versus what Condal thinks HBO will allow on runtime?
As for their confidence, since the language of how involved GRRM is just enough to satisfy some people's desire to see HotD as lore-ically factual, then they can run away with the feeling that things like AemondxHelaena will 100% happen. Me, it's more like could because I can see why they'd do it for the Aemond they constructed, but it's just as likely that it won't happen. Because of that vagueness. And at this point, I'm just there to watch this show burn and make sure that there is an understanding of how ridiculously prejudiced this show is and will be.
Because there is no reason why there should be a HelaenaxAemond storyline and one can only exist to buttress Show!Aemond with how whitewashed he is and his interaction with the older sex worker in episode 9 and how it foreshadows a particular characterization of Alys Rivers (HERE, HERE & HERE).

Comparing Apples and ?? Crab-Apples??
The Guard (2011) // I Care A Lot (2021) // Wuthering Heights (1847)...
***spoilers***
CW: Oh my goodness so much bad behaviour across all of these, but specifically - The Guard: murder, cancer, death, suicide, drugs, drug-smuggling, discussion of torture, prostitution, and strong language // I Care A Lot: murder, exploitation of vulnerable people, violence, threats, violence against women, violence generally, mafia // Wuthering Heights: terrible, terrible people, coercive control, unhealthy relationships, various kinds of cruelty, and more death.
TLDR: I guess people have different tolerances for different kinds of poor behaviour in the fiction/art we consume and, um, should feel the freedom to choose what we do/don't consume accordingly.
Tumblr media
Well, I *have* heard of fiction and - YET - my personal experience with WH was that I hate-read Wuthering Heights as a mid-teenager in one immense, skim-reading session because my mother had bought it for me as a present and told me that I would love it and I kept stubbornly hanging on for the part where that would be true.
(I have subsequently accepted that M and I have wildly divergent tastes and the best indication that either one of us will violently dislike a thing is when the other one turns out to really like it.)
Fair point that perhaps we're in a context where many of us are Not Great and Getting Less Great at being able to differentiate between character and actor or character and author. Quite possible that someone would enjoy WH and still have the common sense to cut ties with anyone IRL who behaved in the same register as Heathcliff.
I can see the value of art forms that include or even focus on unlikeable characters. Totally willing to believe there are people who love these forms of creative expression and seek them out.
BUT
For me - it's not that I *can't* spend time with the character Heathcliff, it's that I don't WANT to. My time is precious. I don't feel like torturing myself. There's more to read than I'll ever get to and I just DON'T feel bad about letting myself off suffering through particular pieces of cultural capital that don't appeal to me.
Which brings me to The Guard vs I Care A Lot.
I Care A Lot was facing a bit of an uphill battle because I'd been manoeuvred into watching it and in these circumstances, I'm both cowardly (so, will fold) and vindictive (so will resent the movie and the movie-chooser and will probably sulk and be Not All That Much Fun).
BUT
I super very much disliked the opening sequence of ICAL yes yes sets up her character - cold, dislikeable, competent, ruthless, motivated yes yes we are supposed to take against her (and perhaps also admire her at least a little?) yes yes cool twist on the gender wars
EXCEPT
Really? The hyper-competent boss-girl lawyer is also - sharp intake of breath - EVIL. And - Lesbian. Hot competent lesbians are evil.
**sigh**
Conversely, I found the opening sequence of The Guard intriguing and funny, whilst also at and beyond the edge of taste and decency. Okay - drink driving. Okay - youth death. Okay - tampering with evidence. (But did you know notice that at least the stated motive was to spare the feelings of the bereaved mother? Admittedly delivered in a way that makes it v hard to know whether it's sincere.)
Do I repeatedly forgive The Guard because the MC is cis-het middle aged white male or because this buffoonish, never-by-the-book cop takes care of his mother, seems to have a moral compass (buried or skewed by all the other stuff), and ultimately rises to the occasion?
I found him likeable. I enjoyed being an observer of his world. I even found that he did terribly dislikeable things is mostly a likeable way.
In ICAL, I finally started rooting for the female lead around the time she was facing down the mafia boss and expressing calm unconcern at the threat of execution. Here, she also rose to the occasion IMO.
BUT she was terribly dislikeable (not in itself a reason to avoid the movie though probably a reason *I* should have avoided it) and I was overall pleased that her deeds eventually caught up with her.
Tumblr media
Read a couple of lowish quality reviews while I was "working through my feelings" about this movie. One of them said interesting things but in a style that suggested AI involvement (maybe, maybe not... I don't think any use of AI was declared - oof, this just makes me sentimental for the good old bad old days of the early internet).The other one was a scarcely veiled excuse for pushing hair products.
In the hair article, I thought there might be something small and specific about the decision to give RP a ramrod straight 'do' when she's in court and a more relaxed version of the bob otherwise. Nope. There was, however, a comment that the design team was trying to use hair design mirroring to reinforce the idea that RP and PD were essentially the same (something about a tiny pigtail?). This I found intriguing and credible. I *do* think the mirrored characterisation is an important idea in the movie - and makes sense of the decision to use an ordinary guy to bring her story to a close, not the gangster.
Feels like a "wrong answers only" response but we walked through the Inns of Court area of London this am and I wondered briefly if there was a "look like a wig" vibe going on with RP's hair in the courtroom scenes but honestly, nope. Don't think that's why. I think it's just about making her look especially extra: controlled, cold, in control, sleek, shark-like, on her game, court-credible, etc.
PS Himself and I had a chat about why wigs were incorporated into the UK judicial costume and I'm smugly delighted to note that my guess (that when the dress was codified it was just Normal Everyday Wear for Gentlemen) was there or thereabouts as the reason.
Tumblr media
PS2 final thought, from sport not from art -
At the Paris Olympics, I was moved by this moment in the Decathlon, where one Norwegian competitor, having just crashed out of the medals on the pole vault, competed in the final event anyway to act as a pacer for his teammate who then successfully won the gold.
As the caption says, under certain formulations of the rules - perhaps under certain ethical framings also - it's possible to argue that Rooth shouldn't have had access to this kind of help, that it was an artificial enhancement of his chances. And yet - I found it noble and moving. Sheesh, the way we don't all perceive things the same way, eh?
[Tweet by Gabby Pieraccini, 4th Aug - the rule being discussed was the "Gundersen" approach - no, I don't otherwise know what that is.]

so it's saturday. so i'm working on design client projects right. annah got home early from work around like 1:30 or something. she's been telling me for weeks that her sister and her bf are coming here for some period of time and was panicking a couple nights ago trying to instruct her sister (in nyc) how to take her bike apart in order to ship it here or to nashville (the next city that she's going to live in after staying here for an unclear amount of time). it was like 9pm here so middle of the night there. and mind you sister hadn't even packed up her apartment and had to leave to ship her belongings in the morning to catch a flight at noon or some crazy shit. anyways. i guess she's here now bc i think she arrived yesterday or something. and annah went straight to bed after getting home and stripping off her wet work clothes to nap. and suddenly texted me to come in so i go in there and she tells me we are leaving at 5pm for family game night (it is 4pm). i say what are you talking about? because she often talks nonsense in her sleep. she says it is family game night we need to meet her sister's boyfriend. i say well i guess i'm not going then!
she insists she's been telling me but um. saying "don't forget [sister's name] is coming" is not telling me that there are events i am expected to attend. she says she shared all her ical events with me but they literally are NOT shared with me. every time she tells me we are doing something the day of or the day before as if it's been on my calendar this whole time i explain it is very much NOT shared with me and not visible to me, i am not invited and i can't see it and it's complete news to me! so every time if i am to go to these things it completely messes up my plans for myself, i have to drop whatever i was planning on doing to prioritize HER plans over ME. she plays dumb every time like it's not her fault i didn't get the invite. i don't know how to help you.
