(tw: proshipping & pedophilia)

opening the abigail tag on ao3 and seeing a proshipping fic between abigail and joey | anna-maria ruined my day, maybe even my entire week actually.

how can someone miss or straight up ignore the point of the fucking movie this hard.

there’s absolutely no ambiguity about abigail and joey | ana lucia’s bond and their last interaction in the movie. there’s nothing up for interpretation. no shades of grey.

if you interpret their relationship as anything other than platonic (frenemies/reluctant allies to possibly actual allies) and/or found family, you either have the worst media literacy skills in the entire world or you need to have your computer drive checked by the fbi or both.

I understand that people in the community are trying to help, but I really wish they would stop responding to criticisms or confusion about Connor's character development with, "Just play the homestead missions!" These missions only showcase a different side of Connor's character when he isn't burdened with the fate of his people or the Brotherhood during a time of war. This response only reinforces the perception that his character doesn't change. I'm also tired of people on both sides of the discussion making excuses for those not paying enough attention during the main story. We have to be better.

Not so gentle reminder, there is no place for radical far-right extremists in this blog. If you are a fascist or hindutva-badi please fuck off from this blog. I'm utterly disgusted with you and want to do nothing with your bullshit. DNI if you lack basic critical thinking, historical consciousness, decency or humanity.

Simone De Beauvoir should be to feminists what Sigmund Freud is to psychologists: important to read from and learn about for the context of the modern field but fiercely detested for their sexist BS infiltrating our society.

What Bothers Me About Episode 6 (SPOILERS AHEAD FOR SEASON 2)

So I have been watching the famous kiss scene of Good Omens many times over and what really bothers me about this is Aziraphale not getting a chance to actually talk to Crowley after the kiss.

You can see the absolute whirling of emotions in Aziraphale’s face after the kiss, and I know a lot of people have been quick to say it is Aziraphale’s fault, but there is so much more to it all.

Aziraphale has never been kissed. He isn't a human. It's a new feeling for him and he gets little to no time to PROCESS IT. He kinda gets stuck in a state of shell shock.

He can't exactly have an in-depth conversation with Crowley at that moment, and he doesnt really know how to react. Of course, as an angel, he can feel love. But in that moment, he is now torn between two things and is sort of backed into a corner.

Stay with Crowley on Earth VS Go to Heaven with Crowley as an angel again.

I don't blame him for the confusion in that moment, as both choices have upsides and downsides. It's all just a snowball of misinterpreted words.

“Nothing lasts forever” - Crowley thought he meant them, when he meant the bookshop

“I forgive you” - wasn't forgiving him for kissing him, it was “I forgive you even though you are doing this now and are putting me in a terrible position”

Not only does Azi hesitate multiple times, even after the kiss, proving further that he most likely wanted one last chance to talk to Crowley, he quietly says “no.” as Crowley walked out of the bookshop.

I can't wait for Season 3 as this duo definitely has some unfinished business.

i don't know if mothy is a genius or a troll for making eve's item a spoon. was he just filling in some background details or was he doing it for the lolz? it's fun either way.

but still.

fairy godmother and harry potter have wands, merlin and gandalf have staffs/staves, the sandersons and yuno grinberryall have spellbooks/grimoires, evil queen and galadriel have magic mirrors, — but eve?

eve has an effing spoon. what is she, kadabra from pokemon? cuz i'm pretty sure she's no alakazam since she only has one spoon. she's got the psychic-type specs down pat, tho.

i dunno, i find it funny.

now that's an idea. eve with her trusty partner kadabra. speaking of which, isn't kadabra evolved from abra? and isn't abra one of those sleepy pokemon? my memory's rusty, but if that's accurate then it's a match made in heaven and hell.

This isn’t about about Taylor Swift as a person. It’s not even about Taylor Swift the pop star. Shockingly, it isn’t even about the need for bearding in the 21st century.

It’s about any woman who becomes a symbol of women’s empowerment, just to then do something that destroys that status in a single act. Women and girls need powerful, successful women who own what they stand for and show others that it’s possible in this unequal world, and that they can do it too, without selling their soul to the devil.

It may sound silly to some, but I was feeling empowered this year by the amount of badass women in the media killing it, being brave, being strong, being leaders. And one of those strong women sold out today and became an accessory to vile misogyny. And that hurt me as a woman. I would feel the same if Greta Gerwig had announced her support for Trump’s presidential campaign.

I’m sure in a few months from now we’ll look back on this and brush it off. Bad choice, slip of judgement, glad it didn’t last long. But the damage is done. One more day that a woman that others looked up to and felt empowered by bowed to an entitled, relentless man. And as a woman and mother of young boys I’m allowed to feel disappointed by that.

I don't know why some Christians are homophobic and transphobic. It makes me sad, and it makes no sense! They say the excuses 'God says homosexuality is bad' and 'its Adam and Eve, not Adam and steve' when those excuses don't even make sense?

First of, Adam and Eve were banished from God's Garden of Eden for being tempted by the Devil and disobeying God. They were the ones who introduced Original Sin and evil into our world. Why are you saying all relationships should be based on the one which disobeyed God? If anything, Christians should strive not to be like Adam and Eve. I'm definitely not saying that everyone should be gay, but shouldn't be like Adam and Eve in personality and dedication.

The second thing is the bible excuse. Unfortunately, there are lines in the bible which are against homosexuality however, there is nothing about it in the ten commandments which all Christians should live their life by. Also, in the new testament Jesus made a new commandment. It didn't abolish the old ones but more of a an overview on all of them. It was to love one another.

This is the most important thing of all. Christians and other people of religion should be caring for all of the creatures on God's earth, including humans. God made all animals, created the power of free will for Adam and Eve so all of us do have it as well. ( I will explain more about free will in another post). We should use that power for good. It doesn't seem like a power but the choice to be compassionate is a vital power.

We wouldn't be humans without free will. All humans are born the way they are born and we should all love each other for who we are. Christians who hate anyone from a minority can't claim to be true Christians. Gay, trans, non binary, genderfluid, bisexual, pansexual, asexuals and cis gendered and hetrosexual people are all people. There are no races apart from the human race. There are of course different nationalities and cultures but we all are one race. We should stand together and love each other.

This is why I dislike Christians who hide behind their religion for an excuse to spread evil.

Talking to my baby in dms and I asked her if she's following @adoredcore. She's like oh is that a blog? Looks it up. I started talking about loving You're The Best I've Ever Had and she says to me "ohhh I thought you had an issue with her" AHSFHDHFHSHD YES. Nini, I have an issue with you. First of all how dare you create content that is so sexy, amazingly written and so soul healing all at once. Second of all, how dare you be so pretty and cute and loveable. Explain yourself 💁‍♀️

Oh, my fucking fuck, I can't stress this enough. Could go on and on for years about this.

Can we please establish some media literacy and critical thinking skills in this society?

thinking about how the world would be better if more people understood the differences between 'the author failed to tell the story they wanted to tell' and 'the author told the story they wanted to tell, but they told it badly' and 'the author told the story they wanted to, and they told it well, but it wasn't the story I wanted to read'

i’ve started babysitting for a VERY christian family which is great because they pay me a lot of money but as someone who was raised almost completely agnostic it’s kind of insane. the 2 year old keeps asking me to read her stories from the bible. (why are we reading david and goliath to a 2 year old????) the 5 year old told me today that he was going to bring his legos to heaven with him. he also has repeatedly told me that the lego spaceships he builds are stronger than jesus. (not sure what to say to that. do i deny it??? are things allowed to be stronger than jesus??) had to stop myself mid sentence today because i almost told them im not going to heaven which would DEFINITELY have caused several meltdowns. they’re also both completely fascinated by my nose ring
