hey since ASAB terms are sort of becoming the next "biological (fe)male". reminder that ASAB terms simply describe what was observed and assigned by someone else when you were born. It is/was your Legal Sex. not everyone who was AMAB is a "biological male". or vice versa.

use more terms that don't exclude people! say perisex/dyadic! there's even alternative single-word terms that mean "biological (fe)male!": say müllerian! say wolffian!

expand your queer vocabulary to better describe various experiences!!! synonyms exist for a reason!! just start Looking Shit Up I promise it's so much fun! I love learning!!!!!!

Fanfic is written for fun

People don’t have to critique it when critique wasn’t asked for 🤪

Wild thought really

Reaction post to this one because it's been driving me crazy the entire day 😅

I see a totally different thing.

Ray and Fraser are so perfectly in sync that Fraser doesn't even have to chew it all out for Ray because Ray understands Fraser on a much deeper level. Their partnership goes beyond words.

Ray knows Fraser is shaken up (he tells Welsh and Welsh trusts that Ray knows what's going on with Fraser) and that he's working on things on a deeper layer than this case.

Ray hasn't even met Victoria but he knows Scarpa is not to be trusted. She's manipulative and she's playing games with Fraser. He just doesn't know that Fraser sees through it. Even though Fraser keeps telling him.

But Fraser also knows he has this one chance to finally show himself that he is not going to fall for something like this again. Maybe even that he can open up and love.

That he is capable of doing this and not losing himself in the process again. He's learning to bluff.

And he has to do this part alone. Because the other time, it was taken from him by a bullet in the back.

So let me present you the way I see it. Fraser completely trusting Ray to have his back.

Ray being an absolute hero. There was never any doubt in Fraser's mind that Ray would get it, get him.

That moment when you have to let people be wrong about you because correcting them would make you seem like an unbearable show-off

I was at a bookstore with a friend the other day and I was looking at a book in German that I was interested in buying, but then I saw that it was a translation and had originally been written in French

I commented idly to my friend "Sometimes I don't buy a book because it's a translation and I always prefer to read in the original language when possible" and she said in an agreeing-with-me way, "Yeah it would make more sense to read it in English"

and I realized she assumed I meant English when I said "original language"

but I couldn't bring myself to say "Yeah, or French or Dutch or Spanish or Italian or Portuguese or one of the other languages I read..." because like. who says that kind of thing.

Such weird responses to your survey. Pleasantly surprised that it’s only a handful, but still. :(

I wish people understood there was a way to go about your internet experience without making it about some sort of discourse 24/7. Very unhealthy.

if people understood that there's a way to just avoid things you dislike on the internet and not constantly engage with discourse and meaningless drama of/with people you don't even know, the internet and society itself would be almost unimaginably different.

In light of chapter 86, while I doubt this will actually happen anytime soon as it would put Yor's secret at risk, I kind of want Yor to shyly offer to teach Loid some self defense or offer to train with him so that he doesn't get hurt as much by the next unruly patient he has to deal with. I like to think that Loid would accept her offer for one reason or another - he'd either find a way to 'for the mission' it or perhaps he'd think back to the tennis arc and recall how training with Yor helped him there and decide it's a good idea to take her up on the offer. He's been slipping after all and maybe this would help him get back into fighting form? While he could decline out of pride or fear of outing himself or drawing too much attention to themselves or something, I still prefer to think he'd say 'yes' if she asked

One little known fact about Sherry is that she has a ridiculously high spice tolerance. The Sinners find this out on accident when dining out at a restaurant of Hong Lu's choice, where he tells them about a certain spicy mustard served there that they can dip their food in.

Most of the Sinners are incapable of handling the sting but Sherry just keeps eating the mustard. She's in tears and has to keep scrunching up her face, but she absolutely loves the burning sensation whenever she takes a bite. Hong Lu, of course, is very happy she likes it, and Ryōshū is mildly impressed she can handle it, but the other Sinners are a bit terrified of just how much spice Sherry can handle.

Even with all the brotube fanon worldbuilding in this episode and the op sith, I think the one thing that might put me out of joint is the idea that Master Sol can't sense the difference between Mae and Osha. ....But on the other hand, I can totally understand why they would want to include Mae impersonating Osha, because what else are you gonna do with identical twins on opposing sides

the concept of any of the good bl adults coming to find hunter and luz in the worst timeline without vee is very funny to me like.

darius shows up at the door and luz practically screams his name with delight and when hunter sees him they hug?? and poor camila has no clue what the fuck to do abt this.

is this man from the cult. is he the cult leader. did HE lock them in the basement for thirteen years. should she be beating him half to death. should she say hi and shake his hands. should she call the police. what the fuck is up with his hair. ?? why is he thanking camila for taking care of them??? is he another cult escapee?????? wait- THE EARS?

Scream. camila so rapidly doing calculations in her head like "okay, luz clearly isn't afraid of this man, this definitely Isn't the person who scarred and tried to kill hunter. but she obviously knows him very well and he's about my age, he was definitely an adult when she was kidnapped, was he..... has their cult been kidnapping Multiple Generations Of Child???? was this guy also kidnapped as a kid?? did he genuinely take care of them or have luz and hunter just developed stockholm syndrome for the kinder-seeming 'good cop' kidnapper??"

and she gets through all of this before being like "wait a second. why do he and hunter have the same fucking ears."

this cold is weird because it actually just skipped the running nose stage completely so I can't tell if I should still be resting because it's going to get worse or if this is already almost over
