#shes pissing me off

[thefanboyhub]

I'm sick of my mother's shit. She gets in a fight with my dad (step dad btw) and then leaves. I gond our she wants to go see one of her little fuck ups (ex boyfriend during the time she and my dad were getting divorced) and for "closure" or some shit. She's been gone since like 8 pm. It's 2 in the fucking morning. I've been worried that she got into a car crash. Wtf am I gonna do if she fucking dies? I'm gonna lose my brother and I'm probably gonna have to live with my grandmother again. Anyways. I call her and I ask her where the fuck she is and she doesn't answer she refuses. So I know she's with that fucking idiot.

For a little more context my mom and dad were slowly getting back together and all that shit. My dad REASONABLY was upset that she wanted to go see that fucker. He trusts her, he doesn't trust him. He took his wedding ring off because he felt undeserving of it due to these feelings. Tries to explain and my mom got pissed claiming he was trying to make her choose. CHOOSE WHAT MA? ARE YOU IMPLYING THE FUCKIN IDIOT THAT ALMOST FUCKIN KILLED YOU BY SMOKIN WEED RIGHT NEXT TO YOU, WHICH YOU'RE ALLERGIC TO, IS SOMEONE YOU STILL WANT TO BE WITH??? EVEN AFTER ALL THE SHIT MY DAD HAS DONE? ARE YOU FUCKING JOKING?

He's paying for shit, being the dad you failed to provide me with as a child, APOLOGIZING FOR FEELING REASONABLY UPSET WITH YOU.

What more do you want from my dad? What else could he possibly due for you to stop fucking with his head. He's breaking by the moment.

Time and time again you ignore what I tell you. This time I'm not middle ground. I'm sticking with my dad. I'm sick of your stupid bullshit. So next time you try to rip into him, I'm getting in your face like old times bitch. You've gone some crossed so many lines and AVOIDED ANSWERING MY QUESTION BECAUSE YOU KNEW ID TELL YOU OFF. YOU PUSSY. YOU ABSOLUTE BITCH.

God. Some of my past resentment popped up again. Fuckin hell man.

the thing about some men is that they want you to remember, at all times, that you are underneath them. that with one word or look or "joke", you will stay beneath them. that even "exceptions" to the rule are not true exceptions - the commonly cited statistic that one in eight men believe they could win against serena williams.

women's gymnastics is often not seen as real gymnastics. whatever the fuck non-euclidian horrors rhythmic gymnasts are capable of, it's often tamped down as being not a sport. some of the most dominant athletes in the world are women. nobody watches women's soccer. despite years of dancing and being built like a fucking brick, men always assume they're faster and stronger than i am. you wouldn't like what happens when they are incorrect. once while drunk at a guy's house i won a held-plank challenge by a solid minute. the party was over after that - he became exceedingly violent.

what i mean is that you can be perfect, and they still think you're ... lacking, somehow. i hope you understand i'm trying to express a neutral statement when i say: taylor swift was the possibly the most patriarchy-palatable, straight-down-the-line woman we could churn out. she is white, conventionally attractive, usually pretty mild in personality. say what you will about her (and you should, she's a billionaire, she can handle it), but a few things seem to be true about her: 1. she can write a damn catchy song, and 2. the eras tour truly was a massive commercial success and was also genuinely an impressive feat of human athleticism and performance.

i don't know if she deserves the title of "woman of the year," i'm not debating that in this post. what i am saying is that she was named Woman of The Year, and then an untalented man got onstage at the golden globes and made fun of her for attending her boyfriend's football games. what i am saying is that this woman altered local economies - and her dating life is still being made into a "harmless" punchline. the camera panned, greedy, over to her downing a full glass of champagne. congratulations taylor! you are woman of the year! but you are a woman. even her.

fuck, man. write better material.

a guy gets onstage at a college graduation and despite the fact like half the crowd is made up of women, he spends a significant proportion of it warning these people - who spent possibly hundreds of thousands of dollars on their education - that they were lied to. that the "real" meaning of femininity is motherhood. that they shouldn't rest on the laurels of that education-they-paid-for but instead throw it away to kneel at a man's heel. imagine that. sweating in your godawful polyester gown (that you also had to pay for!), fresh out of 4 years of pushing yourself ever-harder: and some guy you've never met - who knows nothing about you - he reminds you this "win" is a pyrrhic one at best. you really shouldn't consider yourself that extraordinary. you're still a woman, even after years of study.

god forbid you are not a pretty woman, but if you are pretty, you must be dumb. god forbid you are not ablebodied or white or cis or straight or good at swallowing. you must be beneath a man, or else they are not a man. the equation for masculinity seems to just be: that which is not a woman or womanly (god forbid). anything "feminine" is thereby anathema. to engage in "feminine" things such as therapy, getting a hug from a friend, or crying - it is giving up ones manhood. therefore women need to be put in their place to ensure that masculinity is protected.

this is something i have struggled to explain to terfs - they are not doing the work of feminism, but rather the patriarchy. by asserting that women and men must be (on some secret level) oppositional and in conflict, they also assume that being a woman is akin to being another species. but bigotry does not stem from observational truths or clarity - that is what makes it bigotry. there was nothing in my childhood that made me fundamentally different from my brother. we are treated differently nonetheless. to assert there is some biological drive that enforces my gender role is to assert that women have a gendered role. men do not see women as equal to them not because of biological reality - but instead because the core tenant of the patriarchy is that women aren't full, realized people.

we are told from a very young age to excuse misbehavior as a single man's choice - not all men. it is not all men, just that one guy. all women are gold-digging bitches who belong in the kitchen - but if a man is mean, bigoted, or violent to you, it's just that particular guy, and that means nothing about men-as-a-whole. it is only one guy who got mad when you gently rejected him. it is only one guy who warns her this trophy is heavy, are you sure you can hold it? it is only one guy who smashes her face into the cake. it is only one guy talking into a mic about hating our bodily autonomy.

i have just found that they often wait until the moment we actually seem to be upstaging them. you sit in a meeting where you're presenting your own findings and he says get me a coffee? or you run to the end of the marathon and are about to finish first and he pushes your kids out in front of you. you win the chess game and they make some comment akin to well, you're ugly away. we can be the billionaire and get the dream life and finally fucking do it and yet! still! they have this strange, visceral urge to say well actually, if you think you're so great -

it's not one just one guy. it's one in eight.

Here's a big old Fire Emblem Search & Find I did for the FE3H Masquerade Zine! Find the Golden Deer, but see if you can't find the rest of the students as well! For the ultimate challenge, see if you can't name every character! (Disclaimer two characters are NPCs with no names)

it just breaks my heart how jace tries so hard to remain professional with rhaenyra. he remains trapped in the role of prince because he cannot bear to face his role as brother and son in that moment: it shows in the way he calls her "your grace" instead of mother, the way he launches into his report. whereas rhaenyra is, as daemon says, in the role of mother, not queen: it shows in how quickly she goes to him when he chokes up and how she hugs him and how he crumples into her like a little boy. oh this is the most gutwrenching way they could have played that reunion

The idea that uni protesters are "elitist ivy-league rich kids larping as revolutionaries" on Twitter and Reddit and even here is so fucking funny to me if you actually know anything about the student bodies at these unis. Take it from someone who's going to one of the biggest private unis in the US, 80% of the peers I know are either from the suburbs or an apartment somewhere in America, children of immigrants, or here on a student visa. I've heard about one-percenter students, but I've never met one in person. Like, don't get me wrong, the institution as a whole is still very privileged and white. I've talked with friends and classmates about feeling weird or dissonant being here and coming from such a different background. But in my art program, I see BIPOC, disabled, queer, lower-income students and faculty trying to deconstruct and tear that down and make space every day. So to take a cursory glance at a crowd of student protesters in coalitions that are led by BIPOC & 1st/2nd-gen immigrant students and HQ'd in ethnic housings and student organizations and say, "ah. children of the elite." Get real.

Yknow what, I talk about wanting the master back in dw (rightfully so ok I need back that homoerotic narrative foil). But I think while we’re bringing back old companions we need to give my girl bill some more screen time.

petition to see bill and her water girlfriend again. I miss my space lesbian.

I think people who talk about F1 Academy being a regressive way of segregating racing based on gender are really missing the point of it all. One of the biggest roadblocks for young drivers trying to find sponsors and public support is purely name recognition. If nobody knows who you are, how will you make it up that ladder? Prema, for example, is excellent at advertising its drivers via social media, which gives them a fanbase and drives up "demand" for them. It's thus more profitable for sponsors and teams to pick up those drivers. F1 Academy is doing the exact same thing but specifically for female drivers. Because of F1 Academy, these women are more well-known than the majority of F3 drivers despite competing at what is technically a lower level. And that makes them more appealing to teams so that they can move up in categories! F1 Academy is all about visibility for these young women, and almost anything else is extra.
