This steadiness, this quality of tough-minded tranquillity which could sometimes seem stolid, was balm to the disease of danger and unrest which was preying on them all. In this was Culter's great strength. Now in his mid-thirties, quiet, stocky and unremarkable, he was still nearly unique for his time in that he was perfectly reliable.
Dorothy Dunnett, Queen's Play

A "medical professional" went on a diatribe about his past experiences with "people like me" (black women) instead of looking at my fucking chart and seeing that I'm like no other. After his diatribe, I told him that I neither had nor did any of what he spoke of and he felt really dumb. He ended up not even knowing what to do with me and just blamed everything on me being a black women 'cause I don't do anything but eat and sleep, so he couldn't find anything to blame my issue on. It was really funny and really sad.
I was watching Succession (b/c of course I was) and remembered how YouTube treated me for making reactions to it, EVEN THOUGH OTHERS ON YOUTUBE DO IT WITH NO PROBLEMS (I'm not bitter). Anyway I was hearing these words out of Kendall's mouth, and the way he's been using them in sentences is interesting.

top three oniisama e characters 1. mariko 2. rei 3. fukiko. there are no other options
#FUKIKO is a Character definitely with every episode i like her character more and more#i like how they expanded on her from the manga#she kinda reminds of lady eboshi in the way she carries herself her stance in that position of power#but any stolid pretty lady antagonist in power reminds me of eboshi so shhhh#(pls understand i'm not saying she's in any way similar to lady eboshi lol she's not)#personal

#sparrow speaks#Jrwilb#athur benette the vampire that you are !!!!!!!!!!!#He’s silly okay#I also always adore the guilty vampire troupe#It is however starting to bug me about the lack of vampire themes appearing so far#I don’t think all of the council knows a lot about vampires which is fineee#Whatever I love the Emizel and Arthur dynamic so far#And have I mentioned how much I love the stolid loner character that unwilling becomes apart of a found family group yet ?#Yeah it’s silly#Also I’ve been listening to this with the worst headache I’ve had in months#Which is awesome and really funny that now is when I decided to start listening to this

this isnt anything but also i do think its weird how many go fans view crowley as like some etherial gender fiend and then aziraphale as like. hes a man but im woke and say hes nonbinary. but hes a man. but both of them [in the show] dress like masculine mostly? and between the two of them aziraphale is the one with more obviously ‘feminine’ gestures (which is because he is a gay man on purpose but i digressss). anyway. my point is that i think it happens because crowley is skinny and aziraphale is fat + the fat gender bias. thanks
#mi#idk. it just bothers me sometimes i read fic or whatever of az being A Man from the beginning to the wnd whwre crowley goes through six#genders and a hat change. and part of that is crowleys ever changing look and aziraphales comparative stolidity BUT also idk. idk idk where#im going with this anymore. idk.#ig to me in my head theyve always matched genders the way married couples match outfits. you know. so that they can be gay on purpose always#but anyway like i said. i think the difference is that show az is visibly fat wherase in the book its well. a book. no pictures. so you can#forget if youre a pussy bitch
