Deku's first day on the job is going great

are they really “fem presenting” or do they just have boobs. are they really “masc presenting” or do they just have facial hair

also worth noting that "abusive" doesn't actually mean "irredeemable" either.

there's a lot of people that have done things in the past that were bad, because they weren't taught any better, or they were in an overall toxic situation where EVERYONE was shitty (like a cult), or they were just at an especially low point and hurt others for it.

you don't have to forgive them. you don't have to ever speak to them again. you can be angry with them until you die if you want.

but society cannot function if we don't allow them to move on. to change their behavior and fuck off somewhere else and build meaningful relationships without bothering you again. we need a path for people to change, or nothing ever will.

Congrats?

There’s that post that’s like ‘everyone should get into a tiny niche fandom at least once’ fully agree, that was really fun -- but I would like to add that everyone should get into a fandom where their opinions run counter to major fanon because it really teaches you about sticking to your guns and trusting your interpretation of the text without having to rely on peer validation

because WHAT are people talking about sometimes

can everyone be normal about masculine presenting trans women. for the love of god can everyone please be fucking normal about masculine presenting trans women.

Present, Is Present Review

The female lead is beautiful, the male lead is beautiful what else do you need in a drama?

Wei Zi Qi is trying to get his father's company and his secretary Yuan Xia is there to help until she is fired.

After Yuan Xia's life seems to fall, she gets a call from the future and he tells her what she needs to do to be safe.

I enjoyed the first half of the series, even to episode 12. Maybe because in my head I was so sure that it would end, it seemed weird when the drama had more story to tell.

The second half of the series does become quite repetitive and boring. I was not even that fazed when somebody died.

Time travel is not the strength of this drama either.

What I did enjoy was the characters. The main leads were charming together and had chemistry with one another. They also had a lot of cute moments together, which were fun to watch!

I also ended up, rooting for the secondary couple though the finale made me question how their relationship ends.

I was not very keen on what they did to the second female lead, and some characters felt slightly animated.

Overall, this is an okay drama to watch. No really strong feelings, maybe just to the first half.

I would have maybe a bit fewer episodes, before time travel rules become all over the place. The 12th episode being the finale would have been okay.

6.5/10

is this nonbinary person actually "male presenting", or did you just decide that based on your arbitrary idea of maleness?

is this nonbinary person actually "female presenting", or did you just decide that based on your arbitrary idea of femaleness?

perhaps they're just "presenting" as themselves and your binary biases are clouding your judgement?

Ratatouille would have been a better and potentially much more interesting story if Remy had partnered with Collette instead of Linguini. Two underdogs with talent and passion forced to maintain a dangerous ruse. Fiercely independent Collette giving up temporary control of her body to a creature who, despite the insanity of a rat wanting to cook professionally, she can relate to on a personal level and who she does want to teach. The inner conflict of wondering if Remy’s growing talents are eclipsing her own, if the praise their food is earning belongs more to him than to her. Her guilt over feeling resentment and jealousy towards this little guy who wouldn’t have a hope of realizing his talents if not for her trust and protection. Both of them unraveling the mystery of that sweet but bumbling kitchen boy with the obvious crush on Collette being Gusteau’s secret son, and working together to thwart the new evil owner’s plans to stop Linguini from claiming his birthright. The message of the movie not being this weird, almost smug “some people are born with talent, some people aren’t, and that’s how being a ~great artist~ works”, but something more like, “if you have a dream, you deserve to pursue it, and be supported and encouraged in your pursuit of it, even if other people tell you that, because of some intrinsic aspect of yourself or the circumstances you were born in (like being a human woman in the restaurant industry, or being a literal rat), you have no place pursuing this dream. Also, raw talent can only get you so far, and skill and passion existing in the right balance is key.” I’ve been thinking about this for seventeen years. I’m breaking my silence
