I'm so over the victimhood complex of feminine cis women.
Gender diversity isn't a threat. Diversity in gender presentation isn't a threat.
Femininity is not equivalent to purity and innocence.
Femininity can still be harmful when enforced on people who don't want it. Women and feminine people can still do harm. Femininity can still be weaponized, especially white femininity.

I thought that it was stupid that Brandon Sanderson had the narrator of Tress of the Emerald Sea call all the unnamed sailors "Dougs" when he could have just called them, you know, sailors. But then I started using the term. Turns out having a word for "yes, we know that realistically all these individuals have unique identities and personalities, but they're not the focus of this story so we're going to treat them as faceless background characters" is surprisingly useful.

I love mythology so much and it’s taking everything in me to not write a full fledge fic about a Cupid and Psyche au omfg
justttttt Cupid Bakugou who is just so, so fucking beautiful. he’s always been recorded by other mortals for being akin to sunlight himself—all golden hues and sharp angles and high cheekbones and massive wings. wings that span as wide as an entire village, that sparkle when the light hits them, loud when they beat to send him soaring into the skies above. but his mouth? his attitude?
everyone always wonders why he was never the god of war, instead. but he’s damn good at his job, with his arrows propped up on his back, swift with discharging them into another stupid mortal who’s fallen for the local towns idiot. but hey, they’re in love, and it’s his job to enforce that love go over well.
and then he sees you—the most beautiful mortal, that you’re even compared to the gods, to his mother. he wants you so bad, if not to treasure and keep you against his side as he travels over the oceans cold waters, than to keep you safe from the vile men who want you as their partner and the disgusting women who envy you for having it all.
omg and the part where he takes you to stay in his palace and asks you not to ever look at his face???? it’s killing him, to wear that mask to your nightly dinners, to be able to look at the soft curve of your mouth when you frown and ask him to reveal himself. to be able to look at how you stare back at him, eyes pretty and furious, frustrated and mad, wanting to go back on the conditions you agreed upon because having to sit across from him without seeing him is absolute torture. I am. vibrating.

you know how online fandom quizzes always seem to have a ‘who is your favourite [insert media] woman?’
i feel like i never see this for the male characters? maybe this is just my experience but i only ever see this question posed for female characters, usually because there’s less of them so it’s probably easier to narrow down a choice to just one.
you have to pick ONE female character. you’re allowed to have as many favourite men as you want though 💫❤️

PR account posting about Spinel before tomorrow's episode (here). I wonder if we'll get to know a bit more about Spinel's motivations since they mentioned "what could his goal be...?".
They also posted about Amethio (here). A recap featuring a scene from HZ045 where Amethio uses Terastal. I wonder if this means he could possibly use Terastal in HZ064. Also liked the mention that the battle against Rayquaza led Liko and the others to attempt Terastal training. (Witnessing Terastal against Friede motivating Amethio to eventually do the same, which in turns motivates Liko as well and introduces the Terastal arc, etc. One's growth leading to another's.)
And a final tease of Sango and Onyx (here). Happy to see they'll be around too! I was wondering if they'd have some kind of winter outfits, but it seems like maybe they don't get too cold in this kind of weather.. Sango does have an Ice Pokemon as her main partner so she is probably resistant to cold? And since Onyx is always with her, maybe he is used to it as well now.
