I'm so tired of people complaining about MM's portrayal of Thetis, like I generally don't like to post negativity because no. And I'm not the type to complain about "media literacy" because half of the people who complain about it don't even know what media literacy and critical thinking is, and the other half are just self important arseholes who believe that their only redeeming quality is that someone in high school told them that they were smart

But to anyone who ever said that MM was demonizing Thetis. I'm taking away all the complex women characters until you learn how to be nice

MM wrote about how a woman that was forced to have a child she probably didn't even want, then come to love him, only to learn that she was going to lose him very soon anyway

She was panicking, so she tried to be controlling in hopes that she could achieve this one thing that maybe could prevent her child from dying

And she was so focused on protecting him, that she didn't realized that she was hurting him

In the end, she has to come to terms that in her way to protect this image she had of him in her head, she ended up hurting her real son and didn't even knew him

Thats why she asks Patroclus to tell her about Achilles in the end, to understand who was he beyond what she wanted him to be and comes to terms with the fact that she could've spend all that time being happy with him

But then I see people going "ThEtIs ShOUlD bE a GoOd mOm"

Like of course, reduce this complex character that this woman is, an imperfect person and an even more imperfect mother to just a stereotypical good mom without other personality trait other than being a good mom; thats sooo feminist 🙄 (it's sarcasm)

(And why should she ever be kind to Patroclus when shes A GODDESS!?!?!? Patroclus is like an insect to her!!!!)

I'm not saying that MM is beyond criticism, like why are Menoetius and Pyrrhus soooo one dimensional. But when you're criticizing some part of the book that's not even true, it makes me think that some of you went "I personally don't like it therefore it's bad iabdkabhsishsysk"

Shocking, but you don't liking something doesn't mean it's inherently bad

[a-slut-for-smut]

Nanamin deserves better than Mei Mei

Don’t forget how creepy she is towards Ui Ui

Ya know, I really wish people were more willing to think critically about the stories they consume vs taking every at face value. Sure, when you see something questionable in a story, question it, but immediately writing off the story/story element as “problematic” just because you don't like it or triggers you is such a disservice not only to the storyteller but also yourself by stunting your own media literacy skills.

As ive addressed why NanaMei pair well in previous asks, i'll focus more on the controversy revolving around Mei Mei because its something i really want to get off my chest. The more i think about the arguments made against her the more i get these puritanical and anti feminist/non-conformist vibes from them and its really concerning to say the least.

She's Greedy/Selfish

Yes, shes money hungry. She shamelessly honest with what she likes and what she wants; she has a personal code/credo and stanchly follows it and its hard not to respect that energy. She's motivated and grounded in a way that seems out of place in the 'sorcerers must protect humans' fantasy world, but in the real world? Of course we'd look out for our own self-interest/preservation- shes as real and relatable as they come. She's logically driven (vs emotionally) and honestly if she was a man i bet the fandom wouldn't blink an eye (and prob would slobber all over him) but as always God forbid women have a strong sense of self and refuse to conform to the patriarchal ideals of what a woman should be.

THAT panel

A lot of the fandom screaming in*cest & p*edophile for this panel and i'll admit not surprised it raised eyebrows but not really reading this as sexual. Yes theres nudity, but body language makes it pretty obvious if nudity is sexual or not and well, its not- and how the first thing fandom thinks is "omg they f*cked" because shes topless or whatever is very telling. It's not a stretch to think she would be comfortable with nudity and a sense of propriety seems out of character with someone as shameless as her. She probably splurges on 1000 thread-count Egyptian cotton sheets with all the money she makes, who wouldnt regularly sleep nude on those?

As for UiUi its inferred he used his CT to escape/save their lives directly before, all the more reason he would be tired. Mei Mei even apologies for waking him, implying his CT exerts him and he should rest for the day. Ui UI’s “oh my how shameless!” is said in surprise, indicating he probably blacked out after his CT and woke up fully clothed in bed with her, NOT that he’s tired from having a wild night banging his sister 🙄

I wonder about the japanese dialogue and if there is any nuance/context lost from the english translation, but I interpreted her "Do you not like me that way" was in reference to the shamelessness of her personality, essentially asking him "do you not like me the way I am?" and not her nude body because the translation used "that way" vs "this way", the latter being suggestive. And the fact that they shared a bed to sleep didnt seem OOC given their close familial dynamic.

Sibling Relationship

Its established in-universe that they are "calculating", so naturally they work very much in tandem as far as motivations go and re-enforced from what we seen in their battle tactics. Clearly Mei Mei is offense and 99% of the time can handle any issue on her own, but for that 1% she cant? Thats where Ui Ui steps in.

Ui Ui would never be in danger if Mei Mei is around, and fandom seems to ignore this fact when they say Mei Mei manipulates him to self-sacrifice himself (and her crows) for her benefit. If Mei Mei is fighting and her life's at risk, yall think Ui Ui (or the crows for that matter) stand a chance?? Maybe if he could teleport away himself which is what his CT suggests, but who really knows, and more importantly would he even consider abandoning his sister from what we seen?

I see it as a failsafe CT, only to be used in emergencies since it drains him considerably as Malaysia scene suggests- which is why he wholeheartedly waits (and binding vow) for permission from her to use it, not as a form of control or abuse or simply to please her, but to know if/when as accordance to the battle strategy mapped out by her. Shes shown as a tactician/extremely logical when it comes to battle and will use whatever is at her disposal to win if it means self-preservation (even if it means abandoning the battlefield altogether). Her loyalty is to herself above all.

And her asking “are you willing to die for me” is literally asking consent- she is asking, 'this could be the end- will you do what’s necessary for me to win this?' To which he resoundingly concurs, seemingly out of devotion but realistically if she dies where would that leave him? It’s as natural a response as one could be- in nature mothers will fight tooth & nail to protect their offspring, but at the cost of her life? What would be the point??? Offspring wouldn’t be able to survive without her, they’d be good as dead.

As far as their dynamic, there is clear affection from both sides- Mei Mei is more playful while Ui Ui is reverent. Ui Ui adores her, not atypical of a much younger sibling, but especially so given how accomplished Mei Mei is. It's stated that she inherited their weak family cursed technique, but rather than be solely defined by it, she trained herself to the maximum physical limit, THEN mastered her so called "weak" technique into one of the strongest out there (probably why she acknowledges Maki as a promising sorcerer, she sees herself in her).

If that isn't admirable than i dont know what is, and if GOJO of all people respects her, then thats saying something. But while he respects her and acknowledges her strength, does he trust her? Probably not, not like he does with Utahime who is supposedly "weak" in comparison. And i personally like that dynamic- despite not trusting her to "do the right thing" and expecting her to be self-serving, Gojo knows/respects her as a person and fellow sorcerer. Gege gives us layered interpersonal relationships between multi-faceted characters and yet so many are quick to reduce them to a single trope and its a little sad honestly.

In conclusion, yall need to relax on the pearl-clutching and have a little more perspective by all means hate on her if you dont like her but at least hate her accurately lol

[aftonfamilyvalues]

I am terrified if men.

I mean my father did everything to me but rape me. And he’d assert dominance over me /threaten me because he didn’t want other guys to sleep with me, date me, didn’t want me to get married, etc.

I’m no contact and he knows better than to contact me because if he does I’ll take legal action. My mom died and she was the one protecting him.

I seek therapy because I want to heal and am repeatedly invalidated about my trauma and about the reality that most men are abusive, sexual predators.

I’ve expressed that I’m sad I didn’t experience ge t romantic love..

Which is only to say that I’m all about separatism and even though I’m not dating men cause I’m traumatized by them, I have this regret over not having been able to explore a healthy sexuality, and a fear of missing out.

The last therapist I had was malicious/emotional abusive. Would read and be on the computer during sessions and deny doing it. Claimed I talked to much, (bad luck with this super narcissistic, very misogynistic old woman, grandmother /in her 60’s,) she ignored me /was very devaluing, then perked up “it can happen at any age!” She either thought I was lying or l exaggerating about being abused, or/and definitely not listening because I’ve never expressed wanting a bf or a husband, ever. Of course I did as a teenager/child. It’s honestly so demoralizing when even a therapist views you as inferior and like your being single is a problem and thinks you’re talking too much and attention seeking.

I’ve never not had a female therapist downplay or invalidate my trauma and male violence. I wish there were more feminist based pyschotherapists / bare minimum, therapists who do not project their family values Bullshit. I’ve never not have had a therapist view me as the problem to all my experiences. I’ve therapists judge me and treat me as subhuman for being childfree and single.

I def need therapy as I’m so traumatized that I’m scared to sleep and not sleeping anymore and it’s impacting my health. I also can’t regulate my emotions well and I’m a fearful avoidant with ptsd, some folks say therapist isn’t necessary because most are bad. I’d honestly argue most therapists have very misogynistic beliefs…

Is there any way to ver that out. I get so gaslight I lost my sense of self/ I’ve had to recover from bad therapy but once out of therapy I start feeling less crazy… I do we’ll months on my own without talking to someone but then need therapi.

I’m legitimently scared of them at this point. I did give my last therapist feed back about her behavior, when I told her “I’m a person, and I don’t deserve this treatment” and then responded with “I don’t believe you” she raged and yelled at me, blaming me for her being distracted, telling me I talked too much.

I’m started to lose hope however that there are therapists who recognize patriarchy and oppression as a root cause to mental illness, rather than a partner as a cure for mental illness 🙄without claiming I’m the problem when I’m the one showing up to therapy for what happened to me. Therapists all just think their patients are mentally I’ll crazy women who can’t get a man. I feel insane when I go to therapy. Because I’m terrified of men and the focus is never on me as an individual, but (I shit you not, and tbh I even told her she was giving me harmful advice,) but tk shift the focus on my “distortion” of why I think I “can’t have that now.”

(I actually believe there are good therapists in just scared to open up now /be devalued/have a therapist not even treat seperatism as viable or even suggest it to me as an option. I don’t need a therapist to suggest it to me but I’d trust one much better who did. It sucks leaving a therapy session feeling worse because you don’t feel good enough.)

I really think most therapists are sexists because they have male bias

i think ive mentioned it before but therapy is more of a business nowadays. all these therapists arent people that actually want to help, very few of them do, most of them saw a growing industry and decided they could bank on it. they dont care to help and heal, they view therapy as a way to make someone (women) "normal" and fit in to society rather than working through trauma and have a healthy life, even if that life isnt the typical one. ive also seen a lot of therapists feed into bad behavior, validating the emotions and victim complexes of abusers all while teaching them a new progressive language to wield against their victims. i still think about how my friend went to therapy and the entire time going culminated into the conclusion of "your life sucks and theres nothing you can do about it" like what???? it seems like traumatized people come out of these sessions worse and i have no doubt that abusers are going into this field to extend their reach. i feel like the more people glamorize therapy the more this is going to happen.

[bohemian-nights]

Don’t get me wrong I’m all for women empowerment and feminism (though as many have pointed out before on this app Rhaenyra isn’t really a fan of 🤫) but something about Team Green is really starting to appeal to me.

The complexity of Alicent and all of her relationships (platonic and otherwise *alicole*), Otto and his schemes (as a father he sucks but as a politician…🫠), the relationship between Aegon, Helaena and Aemond (Daeron too but he’s in Oldtown), the complex personalities of the three (I would like to point out that I do not support show!Aegon. I feel as though his character has thus far been wasted potential. Especially since while he was book wise an alcoholic and a cheater he wasn’t a rapist and he wasn’t putting the children of said rape in fighting pits). I am of the opinion that EVERYONE (some worse than others) got screwed over personality wise but geez 🙄.

I hate unnecessary violence and trauma against women but especially sexual trauma. We didn’t get a sex scene with Aemma and Laena but we did get the horrifying scene of Aemma’s medieval c-section, and of course the “GiRl BoSs fEMinISt" scene of Laena committing suicide. While there has been no sexual or implied sexual violence against Baela and Rhaena adding them to the fight scene with Aemond, Jace and Luke was unnecessary violence that they were forced to endure (while there father of course doesn’t even blink an eye to them bloody and bruised 🙄🫠). Every sort of sexual scene we have seen Alicent in has been her being abused in some way.

Rhaenyra was abandoned half-naked and vulnerable in a whore house (I would also like to point out that this is Rhaenyra’s first sexual experience of any kind) by the man we are meant to believe is the love of her life, and then is later chocked by the same man because of her unwillingness to immediately resort to war + the fact that said man was never completely trusted by his brother (I actually like Daemon but god has his character been screwed over).

Anyway…this was originally just supposed to be about how I was starting to see the appeal of Team Green but then I got carried away and now thinking about all of this I’m kinda pissed lol.

👏🏽Talking about this show does not bring out the best feelings 🤣

I’ve always liked the Greens(probably cause they remind me of the Lannisters and they were the house that I originally gravitated to when I first watched GOT).

I know people say that we are supposed to view Greens as the bad guys during the Dance, but to me, they are still sympathetic. Look at things from book!Alicent’s position and tell me you wouldn’t do the same thing🙃 You’d be a literal fool to side with Rhaenyra knowing your sons would always be seen as a threat to her and it’s already been proven that she has no qualms killing family(see Ser Vaemond which happened well before the Dance 😗)

While I disagree with many of the changes made in the show, the Greens (besides Aegon who they managed to make look worse than his book counterpart 🤦🏽‍♀️) are given much more complexity than Team Black as a whole.

Granted, the show has a problem with throwing everyone(the exception being Aemond who is Ryan Condal’s Daemon🤣) under the bus to prop up Rhaenyra, but Team Black characters have it bad*(ex. Laena being treated as the disposable Blackish woman and her girls being pretty props🫠).

Supporting Team Black because of “feminism” makes no sense considering Rhaenyra is about as feminist as Missy Anne(and that’s not hyperbole before anyone tries it because Queenie uses racism to justify ordering a potentially pregnant Nettles’ death🙃).

She’s not trying to break the wheel. She doesn’t even help other highborn women(see the Rosby and Stokeworth ladies) or her own stepdaughters(she herself would never agree to being just a queen consort like how she wants Baela to be😗)She’s not Dany.

She just wants to have occupy the head seat with the boys. She's not going to help any other woman get there 🤷🏽‍♀️

I'm really team-neutral, but the Greens are not nearly as bad as people make it seem and the Dance isn't as cut and dry either(both sides have good and bad characters with the main claimants being sh*tty people who very nearly get their entire family killed).

[theconstitutionisgayculture]

So many people online are just incapable of imagining a conservative gay person, aren't they? 😂 This is a really dumb complaint, but I'm so sick of reading fanfics about my favorite character - a guy who is implied to be fairly conservative, and widely interpreted by Tumblr fans as being in the closet - and they're just about how he'd be sooooo happy if he just went to gay bars, and participated in drag, and just dove hard into kinda stereotypical gay culture.

Like, these stories clearly mean something to the people who write them, and that's cool, I'm glad they're doing something creative that makes them happy! I just think it's funny how so many fanfics have him immediately toss away his standoffish nature and disdain for party life because GAY, lol. And of course in fics like these, everything even moderately conservative about him is depicted as a flaw that need to be corrected - and luckily, he couldn't possibly be sincere about any of it, so he can be "fixed" right away! 🙄

Nah, it's not dumb. It's always annoying when you're searching for fanfic and you run into bad headcanons and character mangling. I felt the same way when the Batman fandom was headcanoning Jason Todd as a feminist because he canonically doesn't like when people abuse women. If that's all it took to be a feminist, pretty much everyone would be, lol. I also hate when fandom takes shy, anxious characters and makes them sluts or gives them a promiscuous backstory because they made them gay and they can't conceive of a gay person not whoring around.

But yeah, I feel you, lol. Write what you want and everything, but I just wish some people, especially in smaller fandoms, would write less of some things and more of others.

[valkyrieandstrangeridingaragorn]

Hey! Don't know if you've seen the latest article from The Direct, but it says Marvel Studios reveals that Sylvie is not genderfluid like Loki.

Well, according to the Loki series writers and director, Loki himself isn't genderfluid either! Oh excuse me, I mean the other Lokis "haven't got there yet". 🙄

You know why I think they're erasing genderfluidity from Loki's identity? Because they want the fact that Sylvie is female, the only female Loki, the only "good" Loki, to be what makes her so superior and special. That's it. That's all they've got. Oh, and the fact that she has the most tragicest backstory that a team of writers have ever made up as they went along, and that somehow gives her an element of "specialness" that dumb ol' inferior Loki could only dream of achieving.

I wish with all my heart that they had just let Loki be genderfluid, instead of forcing this poorly written, slapshod "original character" to be the most special thing ever, just because she's female. I honestly wish that Sylvie just didn't exist. I don't know if it's because they think Loki is just a shit character, and that's why they need Sylvie to be so special, and created her with a mix of Enchantress and Sylvie Lushton because being just Loki or just Lady Loki isn't enough? I don't understand why but I don't think I've ever despised a character more than I do Sylvie.

Of course I don't mean this in a misogynistic way. They want us to think that what they're doing is feminism and that it's empowering to girls but it's really not. It's a patronizing pat on the head. It's insulting. The whole "oh baby you're so superior" thing is crap, and it's costing us dearly. It's costing us the characters we love, and it's ruining the potential of other characters.

Anyway, thanks for reading. I just needed to unload after seeing that this morninng.

Hey that's alright. I understand the frustration, believe me 😉

And please, don't worry about the so-called "misogyny". You can dislike as many female characters as you want, in fact, if anything that's what is truly feminist here: to like or dislike fictional characters without a care in the world as to whether they're men or women or everything in between.

I hate the "she's superior because she's a woman" trope too. There's nothing empowering about that, quite the opposite, and I couldn't agree more with you when you call it patronizing.

They give us a woman, tell us she's perfect and she's the only woman that matters (wow, that is so feminist, huh 🙄) and of course she has a tragic backstory because they want her to be complex but they won't ever put in the effort to write that complexity, so the easiest way to go about it is to claim she has a rough past.

And of course, in these cases the woman needs to be compared to a man because no matter how much they try to tell us the woman is the most perfect creature in existence, she still needs to be evaluated against a man so that she can earn her place in the story (you never see this with men). So she's superior to the male lead in absolutely everything -- but she's not going to show that (we know the writers don't really give a damn about her to write her as complex) so that superiority will be spoken, said by those around her and especially the male lead, who will do everything in his power to remind the audience time and time again of how perfect she is -- lest we think a woman has any value until a man decrees it. What of all this doesn't sound feminist...?! 🤦‍♀️

They were never going to have Loki as genderfluid because the entire purpose of the series was to 1) belittle him and abuse him, 2) retcon him to be the most palatable, basic and normative character of all. Genderfluidness would have ruined that. Just look at what they did with his bisexuality: he comes out, Sylvie says not a single one of his relationships were ever real, he falls in love with her and he's then beaten in the time cell. That's what you get for coming out in Disney.

But what can we expect from people who do this...

LaufeySON for a woman (they changed that in the series so bonus points for that, I guess) and they write her race is Asgardian but her birthplace is "unknown". She's the spawn of Laufey, she confirmed she was adopted, how the fuck is her birthplace unknown?!

[finitefall]

I need to know, where does this monumental bullshit come from that Daemon is a misogynist?! On the pretext that he insulted two women (Rhea and Alicent) whom he (I remind him) hates, is he a misogine?! Next to that is Aemond (made to be Daemon's foil) who makes disgusting comments about Rhaenyra in the book. Only calling her whore and making disgusting allusions. Not to mention the fact that he literally takes a woman as WAR HOLD. Who is the real misogynist here? This bullshit that came up again and again on Daemon pisses me off! It's based on literally nothing?! I even saw this dumb take of someone saying that: Daemon is a misogine, never loved Rhaenyra, cheated on him for sure, is a bad brother, doesn't care much about his kids cause he doesn't wouldn't have reacted to Mysaria's miscarriage (wtf?!), grooming Rhaenyra (🙄) does the same for Nettles, etc BUT this opinion of Aemond raping Alys comes out of nowhere?! The guy took this woman as a prize of war! Who can think that she was fully consenting to have a relationship with Aemond?!

They hate Daemon, so he's a misogynist. Nevermind that he obviously had deep respect for other women. He hated Rhea Royce and had been forced to marry her, but apparently since he's a man it doesn't count as forced marriage for the so-called “feminists”. Of course he hated Alicent, he hated all the Greens. Rhaenyra hated them too, and it’s said he made fun of them to entertain her. Now, "bronze bitch" can be considered a sexist slur. Bronze is a reference to the armour of House Royce and he hated The Vale, so what's left is "bitch": raise your hand if you've never though of someone as a bitch... I might not believe you though.

But where was he misogynistic with Laena, his second wife? The two daughters he had with her? Rhaenyra, who was both his third wife and his Queen? Nettles, his daughter at heart? He wasn't, he had respect for them. Honestly, Rhaenyra is the most obvious example, because no misogynistic man would ever accept a woman as his Queen, even if they’re in love with said woman.

Daemon lost his unborn child when he sent a pregnant Mysaria away and her ship sailed, all because his brother was furious at him for wanting a dragon egg for his future child and told Daemon to go back to the woman he had been forced to marry, but sure, he’s the one who’s been an awful brother. Daemon didn’t groom Rhaenyra (x) nor Nettles with whom he didn’t even have a romantic or sexual relationship with (x)...

Yes, Aemond is Daemon’s foil, even though Green stans don’t want to understand this simple fact and insist it’s the opposite. Most Aemond stans are delusional and keep saying Aemond is the morally grey character and Daemon the villain. Because they hate Daemon, because they hate the Blacks, because they hate Rhaenyra and take it out on Daemon, or maybe just because they have no reading comprehension skills. Apparently, “Prince Aemond had taken her into his bed as a prize of war” is too difficult to understand as “Prince Aemond was her captor and rapist”. I’ve talked about Alys: if you’re interested, you can check her tag. Also, I feel you about the amount of bullshit we have to read in this fandom nonnie...

[femmesandhoney]

dylan mulvaney talking about “barbie pockets” (female genitalia) and “day x of being a girl” (a grown man fetishizing female puberty, who doesn’t like being called a woman because he thinks of woman being “sexy” and “confident” and he doesn’t think he’s that so his preferred term is “girl”, aka an adolescent female) and “embracing/showing the bulge” (trying to normalize showing male genitalia in public, specifically female spaces, and forcing everyone to be comfortable with it or else they’re transphobic while breastfeeding mothers literally just feeding their babies are still taboo), and makes fun of women and womanhood and so much more gets to meet the president of the united states, is an ulta spokesperson, is a kate spade spokesperson, is a bud light spokesperson, gets invited to the grammys and gets to meet actual talented celebrities, makes a huge red carpet event for his “365th day of being a girl” and is at the forefront of women’s rights and no one bats an eye. but of course if you acknowledge any of that you’re transphobic!!1!1 🙄 this man irritates me so much and the mainstream feminists are fawning over him because he identifies as a woman so he must be Special and Oppressed and so we must coddle him and treat him like a spoiled bratty 5 year old. dylan has done so much harm towards both the gay and the trans communities. i hate him so much.

idk how anyone can claim trans people have "no visibility" when they're spokespersons are literally lauded in front of lights and cameras

i always feel so insane when i point out misogyny irl or say im like into studying social justice/feminist theory etc. my uncle once was asking me abt school and was like ‘so how many crazy outspoken liberal professors do you have’ i was like oh none actually bc thankfully everyone ive had has been professional and just wanted to teach passionately about their area of expertise. he’s like hmmm aight😑 then when i told him i was taking a social justice course (which is required for my major) he was like ‘oh GOD🙄’ like…….aight…..but then when i tell people i love sociology and im very into that theyre always super respectful and super into it and it’s like. you know that part of soc is reading about Evil Marxist theory and looking at social/class mobility and *GASP* studying the disproportionate impact of poverty on minority groups that youre so sure are not oppressed in any way………u know that social justice theory is a subsection of sociology……..it’s like people hear one buzzword and they think im being brainwashed by the Evil College Overlords. like babe. BABE. i dont know how to tell you that there are people way smarter than u who believe and study these things because theyre lived experiences that people have, not just some made up bullshit like the stock market or reaganomics,….rhhddjfjjdnrejfjajdjjajdhs

Targ stans who are dickriding Maegor the unhinged nonstop and shit on Aegon ii piss me off . Makes you wonder that they hate Aegon not because of Feminism but because he doesn't make them wet their pants like Maegor does.

Are there really that many Maegor stans? I thought it was a very eccentric minority. How can someone read FB and think Maegor was in the right, yet somehow Aegon II is too much?

Of course, the true reason is that they oppose their Dany-stand-in Rhaenyra. Because if they were such feminist warriors, they would take offense at how disposably Maegor treats women. 🙄

[My Cramps from Hell and current big :D about the Bardock DLC pushed my mind to a few small 😒🙄 moment I had with it so far (which isn't far in and is absolutely my Feminist Rage coming out BUT). Spoilers ahead.

I was pretty disappointed that Fasha's side quest revolved around a romantic subplot. With the other members of the team, they fought with you for whatever reason, but for hers, it was Bardock confronting a guy that was simping over Fasha and fighting him to help him get stronger so he could talk to her. Then she of course has the whole inner monlogue about how sweet it was that he was willing to get his ass beat for her and that she might be interested now and blah blah blah. But she didn't fight and it just irks me because of course the women have to be part of some romantic bs and it's just so lame that, even with a SAIYAN woman, we're going to keep her within the box they're "comfortable" with putting them in. Plus like sorry but Fasha would absolutely deal with that kind of shit on her own ok. She don't need Bardock lmao.

I would have been more intrigued if the forced their dumb romance bs on ducking Shugesh or Borgos. 🤣🤣🤣 Instead, they got the SAIYANS ONLY CARE ABOUT FOOOOOOOD trope. Which is big yawn but not quite as egregious as how they did Fasha dirty.

Also. I say again. Bardock and Tora have that big Achilles and Patrclus energy and I will never change my mind.]

Black Wedding

I'm so sick with some bullshit virus and trying to gauge whether I will feel better tomorrow so that I can get back to work, but. Ugh.

In the meantime, I will try to get back to the Black Wedding. It's been months, I think, since I put a pause on all drama-watching. Unfortunately, my concentration has been shot to hell. I've been finding it so hard to focus, even on the things I like, but I am going to try tonight.

This show doesn't deserve this. I'm only two episodes in, but it has been fantastic so far. So dark and atmospheric, they are doing a brilliant job with the characters and it is easily the best I've seen so far from any ex-Yu production (or at least the most tailored to my taste).

The goal is one full episode tonight! Let's see how far I make it.

***

This show is stupid gorgeous. So beautifully filmed.

***

LMAO, of course 🤣🤣

So typical of a Balkan mother. When doctors don't help, turn to mystics and wayward priests. Even though my family is Christian, they fully believe that a Muslim imam has the power to lift black magic. Even had one of my aunt's in-laws ask my mother to get her in touch with one, but mom sent her to one of our own scammers instead. Fun times.

***

LMAO, the communism didn't stick even when everyone was supposedly communist 🤣🤣 People may have been willing to renounce religion, but they were never willing to renounce superstition.

***

This went well 😅

***

Aww, they are friends.

But you just know that she is fucking that jerk cop. There is zero chance a Balkan show is going to pass up on the opportunity to illustrate how the rabid feminist is nevertheless gagging for that bad boy misogynistic dick 🙄

***

LMAO, I love her, she is such a queen (albeit with potentially terrible taste in men) 🤣🤣

***

Well, shit.

***

SHIT, SHIT, SHIT AND EVEN MORE SHIT.

HE'S UP AND AWAKE AND TALKING. YES, DOCTOR, WHAT DID YOU DO??

***

LMAO, so foul.

***

Anyway, yeah. A full episode in one sitting didn't happen. Continuing with the second half two days later 😢

***

WHAT HAS BEGUN

Anyway, I love this priest and I love Orthodox churches in general. They have good energy, even when the priests are criminals.

***

Oh? He's been excommunicated?

I knew I liked him.

***

Who?

Super creepy. Hoping for a witch.

***

She's so happy, this does not bode well.

That deranged pregnant girl has something to do with all this.

***

Yeah, this is bad. Very, very bad.

***

NOOOO, DON'T FOLLOW THE WITCH INTO THE MURKY DEEP WATER

***

IDK, she doesn't look particularly pregnant to me.

Anyway, yeah. He's going to die. Let's hope that's the worst that's going to happen to him.

***

Apparently not 🙄 I was so sure she was going to drown him.

Anyway, what is even the point of a devil-worshipping ritual if you don't get to sacrifice the mediocre dude who abandoned you to marry some city girl in the process. Disappointed.

Wow Candace playing Captain Save a Hoe for Tate is another reminder for black women to stop defending black men. She tried her best to defend him when you know he would never do the same back. Her crying to Tucker is hilarious as if he cares. He had some nazis on his writing team before but he has to keep his pro Israel Christian audience too. What a clown

Anyway, I was going to ask you how France has been with Ukrainian refugees. A lot of refugee hate comes from how a lot of middle eastern men are treating locals bad. But here, it’s been kinda crazy. Like in the past 6-7 months, there was 4 women who broke homes up by going after the husband/boyfriend after being taken in by a family and one was arrested for trying to solicit sex. I don’t know the details but sometimes I talk to my neighbors in my apartment building. But yeah, crazy 💀

Fair enough: Andrew Tate is not White but mixed, and tbh I think his closeness to whiteness and the fact that his victims are White women is the main reason he's both defended by the right AND loathed by feminists. If Tate was Black, conservatives would brush him as yet another black thug pimp, and feminists wouldn't care because they only care when white women are victimized¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

The way Candace destroyed her credibility for that scrote is quite insane. Maybe Tate has something on her of her husband business but there's definitely something shady going on... Candace beefing with Shapiro over the Israel/Palestine thing makes me believe that sacrificing friendships for her """morals"""" isn't a problem for her (bc if she dunk on Tate she may also other rightoids folks mad at her), so I think there's another reason for why she's still defending Tate 🤔 Time will tell.

Tucker Carlson yt channel is A MESS. I refused to believed it waz his official channel so much the content was shitty. Just shitty rage bait short videos of Black doing awful shit... Peak journalism. Tucker is pretty balanced of that Israel wk thing so I think he antagonized a bunch of his original FoxNews audience. But since he became a Musk sycophant he probably won a bunch of new viewers/fans.

For the Ukrainians immigrants I remember the new floating around with Ukrainians kids in the UK who whined about having classes with Muslim students and asking to change school lmao Black french twitter had a field day dragging Ukrainians lmao "bruh you come from a war torn zone and you still have the audacity to be racist? Nah the caucasity is something else💀" French ightoids are like "look how well those Ukrainians integrate in France unlike those filthy Africans!" ...like- they literally get handed over a job, a house, money and stuff. OF COURSE you integrate well in a country when everything is handed down to you🙄 Illegals resort to illegal shit not for the sake of it but for survival.

I always said that NO ONE deserves to leave their country bc of war but NGL I'm very wary of people coming from a country who elevate a literal Nazi as a war hero...

Welcoming a Ukrainian woman in your house while married is insane though. Those slavic ladies don't mess with hypergamy and will do anything to secure the bag. I wouldn't trust anyone near my husband - and would likely have a big discussion with him if he even dares asking me to host one. Those women get enough shit and accomodation to not shove themselves into locals house and destroy family.

@tin-can-iron-man said:

technically, he is, in fact, the only reason 616 comic Stephen was given the official mantel of sorcerer supreme was because Victor let him so that Stephen would owe him and this Triumph and Torment could happen. So not only is he the cannonical runner up, but he CHOSE not to win so that Stephen would owe him. He low key has a right to feel entitled to it c:

I never analyzed T&T by this perspective, for real!! Because I always believed that no one truly knew how to “release” Genghis, until Stephen astral projected and went through the crystal and kindly freed him. I don’t think Victor knew the secret behind this riddle either BUT I’m pretty convinced that, in case he didn’t win the mantle, he’d make sure to survive so a boon would be granted by the Sorcerer Supreme. So yes, me thinks that he really planned in advance to all possible outcomes. I mean, as SS he’d have enough power to fight Mephisto, but it’s waaaay better to have an ally than fighting the devil alone (having an ally by force, of course, because Doom does not beg heh). I really loved this, I owe you my life for that message ;-; (T&T is my second favorite comic book of all times, as you can see, so I’m always willing to talk about it ooooof)

If the comic has them bickering constantly would be nice. Love that Bats is around. The only missing one is Wong.

From the earlier preview, Wong still appeared to be living in the Sanctum so I think he is definitely going to appear n.n

@chickendav​ said:

I feel like he probably still wouldn’t want the title, but feels the need to pull the same shenanigans he did with Stephen— but this time he is getting yelled at.

You’re all killing me with these tags and comments, I’m having the greatest moment of my life. Thank you.

Everyone yells at Victor now, no one takes him seriously anymore smh

@thatfantasylovingdork​ said:

Doom being sexist is weird. I’m (sorta) a feminist but this just reads as a dumb way for writers to have a woman punk a powerful dude so they look ‘feminist’. 🙄

hhhhhhhhhhhhh I will have to disagree on this one. I don’t think Victor was sexist here? He didn’t degrade Clea for being a woman. He was just pissed that Stephen left the mantle to her just because she’s his wife (Victor often uses the term “woman” to address wives and, well, women in general). Nothing in those panels rang any bells for red flags imo. Victor is the kind of character that cannot have no for an answer so he often loses his composure whenever things don’t go his way.

As for Clea, I don’t think Jed is trying to portray a feminist empowerment here. She has always been a majestic character and was neglected and nerfed over and over again so Stephen would be the male protagonist. But she saved his ass countless times in classic comics. She’s not kicking a strong male character’s ass to look powerful. She’s throwing a bigger tantrum than Victor’s and that says a lot about these two because 1) Victor has an established relationship with Stephen AND he craves power, so it’s understandable that he’d come for her the same way he did when Jericho became Sorcerer Supreme, and 2) it shows that Clea isn’t a very much reasonable character, and Jed made it clear in an interview that, due to her heritage as a faltine, she won’t take no for an answer either. She won’t be a perfect character and I’m so here for it because women do not need to be perfect to be good characters. I love flaws and this is why I love Stephen so much. These two are basically strong and hot-headed imo. And there’s nothing wrong with it. But feel free to disagree, of course.

@eileen-crys​  said:

Pretty sure she's nakey under the cloak of levitation and she doesn't give a fuck, which makes it even cooler hahahah

NAUR BUT ONE BRAIN CELL CAUSE I THOUGHT THE SAME. Both Clea and Stephen definitely sleep naked and I’m so here for this.
