#woman in stem for reals

[frenchfry99]

Looks can be deceiving, aren't they?

Her main job is to gather information for the mob, so same as her original version, Daria always knows the weather, just in a bit different way, assisting in planning missions and making sure the environment for them is safe, including getting rid of targets that get in the way of the "family's" success.

Has a habit of calling others pet names. If you're her victim too dw. Will call you "sugar" in your face and then stab you in the back lol-

Daria always wears her usual ambitious and flamboyant personality, though , for example, Frank would rather call her pretty insufferable (pretty AND insufferable as I like to say:3 ).

I mean he's not wrong, you gotta have some strong nerves or similar personality so her company would be bearable- still her humorous and energetic self, her kindness and care are rather performative than her original version, Daria would help someone else only if they're part of the family/it's in her interest and she'd get something in return. But if you really caught her eye, you're cherished as the most precious thing in her life-

Convinced she can get whatever she wants.. And she will! One way or another, bad or good - Daria will get to her goal

"Me? A journalist? You're making me laugh, darlin'. " But they're not joking, Daria! Oh if only you remembered- well, at least now you'll always remember what you get for being too nosy

Part of what charms and compels me in Jeyne Poole's arc is her reaction to her predicament. All the female POVs in this book are dealing with a lot of gendered violence, and they all deal in different but dignified forms... Jeyne is not a POV character and she is absolutely not dignified lol. She cries and begs, she is utterly helpless. But unlike most women in this book who are utterly helpless, she survives. It's frustrating how fans refuse to celebrate that, simply because there is no glory in it.

as a female engineering student i am so grateful to have representation like poppy li. too many “woman in stem” characters are, on top of being really smart, also really cool and really pretty but POPPY is a piece of shit, awkward as hell, egotistical little gremlin addicted to candy, power, and validation. she is the smartest person at mythic quest and also the weirdest person you’ve ever met. i love her so much

Season 8 of Brooklyn 99 did not have a lot of good writing decisions, but one writing decision that I definitely appreciate now is the decision to not write a pregnancy arc for Rosa despite her actress, Stephanie Beatriz, being pregnant at the time. I don't know for sure why they made that decision--maybe it's because they realized Rosa having children wouldn't make sense for her character, maybe it's because they didn't think there was enough space for a pregnancy arc on top of the other storylines they were (poorly) attempting to tackle in a season that would only be 10 episodes, maybe it was combination of both. But either way, it was definitely a good decision from a character standpoint to not force a pregnancy arc on her simply because her actress was pregnant, even if it meant they had to put Rosa in loose, baggy clothes to hide Stephanie Beatriz's pregnancy. I hadn't really appreciated this at the time because, well, I thought it was an obvious decision. Why would you write in a pregnancy just because the actress is pregnant, if it doesn't make sense for the character? But now, looking back, I am much more appreciative of the writers for doing this. This newfound appreciation certainly has nothing to do with a certain show I'm watching now deciding to write in a stupid ass pregnancy arc for a character that makes zero sense for the character, just because the actress is pregnant, as if they forgot that TV and movies have been covering up IRL pregnancies and letting pregnant actors' characters still be not-pregnant for decades!

lapsed stem major who seethes impotently every time they call Love Is Blind an "experiment" bc they use a cherry-picked sample, no control group, and no statistical analysis, and it's probably not even peer-reviewed

I hate to break it to Republicans but at this point most of the so called "DEI hires" in workplaces are white men who don't have the skills, certificates, degrees, and/or experience for the job and only got their positions because a friend of a friend got them hired. Like women, non-white people, queer people, disabled people, and many others all know they'd be first on the chopping block at their job which is why they are usually the ones most qualified, and even overqualified, in their workplace. They're the ones with the degrees, years of experience, tons of skills, and who meet or exceed expectations at their job. They're the ones who work their asses off and keep the place running. And when it comes to cutting people, managers and administrators only care about who can keep the lights on and the numbers high. So Bradley, who only got the job because a family member convinced the manager to hire him even though he was not qualified at all, and he's doing the bare minimum every month, and he sucks to work with, is getting cut first. Simple as that.

getting a LOT of submissions for evil scientist moms who experiment on their kids. I wonder at the widespread connection in media between presenting a woman as cold/cruel/unmotherly/inherently evil and their non-traditionally feminine careers

so much of a 21st century woman that i legitimately had to have a guy in my YA lit class explain to me how men's emotions work because i've only ever heard about it from idiotic women speaking for men or super macho guys who think any form of emotion is utter weakness for my entire life
