If I hear one more gamer bro complain about how women just aren't hot in video games anymore, I think I might actually scream. God forbid women, hell even fictional depictions of women, just exist without trying to be sexy for five minutes. How dare they have personalities, backstories, and opinions instead of just being a pair of tits and ass to stare at. I hate it here

There should be a dating app for jobs. Like Indeed, but you pre-upload your resume and then you can just swipe through job descriptions and it’ll auto-send in your application

Who's doing the learning?

"What is self-evident in sports we are only starting to realise is true for learning as well. “The one who does the work does the learning,” writes Doyle (2008, 63). It is hard to believe, but in education that is still a revolutionary idea." (Sönke Ahrens, How to Take Smart Notes)

i’ve made this post and argued about this before but i don’t get if you’re a revolutionary (of basically any stripe) why you would oppose mandatory military service—what could possibly be better than the state paying for training your future cadres and the people being just one seized armoury away from resembling an actual force—the point of all revolutionary movements is to start and win a civil war and somehow the volunteer service model is going to make that easier

also obviously conscripts are going to be easier to radicalise into defection than volunteers, which is generally going to be critical to your civil war victory

this is something i’ve talked about quite a bit with a friend, but i figured i’d share it here just because i think it’s an interesting and informative mindset to look at current media with… basically, i had the chance to talk to [writer who works for major media corporation, not involved with any of the examples i mention] a bit ago and they said that when they tried to include a trans character in their story, the direction they were given from higher-ups was that “they can BE trans, but they can’t SAY they’re trans.” and i think hearing this really made a lot of things click into place for me regarding, like, queer characters as a whole?

like. i think it’s the reason that someone like captain angel in strange new worlds can use they/them pronouns and talk to spock about not fitting into boxes but can’t SAY that they are nonbinary/trans. it’s the reason those gundam girls can propose and get matching rings, but as soon as a voice actor says they’re gay, bandai scrambles to “correct” it. kirara from jjk can have a middle school class photo that looks quite masc and in the present look very punk & femme, but not say the word trans. gwen stacy also cannot say the word trans while the screen flashes pink and white and blue as she begs her dad to just see her for who she is as his daughter. galo can give lio the kiss of life and then explode into a heart-shaped flame in a movie littered with pink triangles but not be called gay.

and all of this is obviously frustrating for a number of reasons, and it can be hard to parse intent when movies and shows CAN’T be as open as their writers would like them to be, but i think it’s worthwhile to keep in mind as a viewer? i don’t pretend to know what goes on behind the scenes of course, but i’d bet that’s why we’re getting to such a point where there are stories that are laughably blatant in how queer they are but which staunchly don’t claim to be - because if they DID, they’d lose the chance to tell that story before they could even try 😭

Thinking about a situation where after Ace and Sabo reunite and after they get the “I THOUGHT YOU WERE DEAD” “IM SORRY I FORGOT” out of the way, they both sit down watching Luffy and his crew and Ace smile and says “he hasn’t changed a bit had he?” And Sabo smiles leaning back into his palms watching Luffy run around with Usopp or something and replies “no. He’s different, it’s subtle but he’s matured a lot in Luffy standards. I mean look at him. He’s loosing in a game and not crying about it” they laugh but it’s a bitter sort of truth. Ace had been with Luffy for so long growing with him he hadn’t realised how much he’s grown. While sabo only has the memories from over ten years ago and now, he can see just how far his brothers have come. I think it would make sabo really proud.
