Reading about the Wilbur Soot allegations has reminded me of an old saying:

"I cant believe my favorite musician who wrote my favorite song 'locking teen girls in a closet with spiders' locked some teenage girls in a closet with spiders!"

Shout-out to the guy who took in four women 25-40 years old with a big formal display table that I introduced as "Hello! We are all scientists here at the [institution] who do research on improving lawns with native plants!"

Guy said: "Oh. [long pause] This is not what I thought 'Science at [institution]' would look like."

WHAT DO YOU MEAN, SIR? [increasingly manic polite smile]

Idk if it’s just having grown up being a dancer or if it’s simply because I am not a disgusting creep but as a gym fan of 12+ years now it STILL catches me off guard when people (men) make sexual comments about leotards and gymnasts’ asses/crotches. Like maybe it’s just the exposure to it that’s desensitized me but other than a wedgie showing someone’s Entire buttcheek in 4K that makes me go “yikes kinda embarrassing” I really never think of it in those terms…?

Stupid exes that didn’t do me right when we were together always wanna come back. Babe you’re dead to me and I’m not one to give another chance to someone who already failed me. Bye.

Never trusting a man again💜

So I just got cat-called from a moving vehicle *by name*.

And not only is it way creepier than regular cat-calling, but they were heading in the same direction I was. I don't know anyone in my local area, and yet they recognised me by my hair or my butt. Not very happy about it since I already feel very unsafe where I am.

Every single time

Sigh. I respected him so much. I loved his writing so much.

Elden Ring thoughts re: Mogh and Miquella, and Miquella in general

Why are writers still doing the thing where there's a reveal that an apparent victim of kidnapping and molestation turns out to be the secret mastermind controlling the molestor?

Especially when the apparent victim is shown to look like a child?

What are these (let's be honest) mostly cis-man writers trying to get us to absorb? Who are they trying to make us feel sympathy for? And why?

To point out, after some digging, Mogh already had a compelling backstory before they decided to *checks notes* have perpetually childlike looking younger brother seduce and then mind-wipe him. And then use his body as a shell to put the soul of their half-brother into. So that the childlike older brother could marry the body with the soul of his half brother living in it.

Like Oooo The Tragedy...(and his story up to this point IS a tragedy)

But did we need this "actually the pre-pubescent looking victim of a kidnapping is at least hundreds of years old AND he orchestrated his own kidnapping 😌 and the guy who the whole fandom has been making 'molester' jokes about was innocent all along 😌" ???

Did we need this in this day and age? When so many actual victims are coming forward and pointing out that they couldn't speak out for years because the person who attacked them was socially prominent or wealthy? Like why are these men making DARVO into huge plot points in videogames, presented as a vindication for the apparent aggressor?

It’s really amazing how obsessed I am with fictional men and absolutely can not stand 99.999 of real men in my life.
