From Trump’s executive order — It basically declares everyone is now a woman.

All human embryos are female at conception…it takes around 6 weeks for fetal testes to produce androgen which counteracts the estrogen which produces male genitalia.

I recently finished the Lady of the Lake and I think my main thoughts on it are the lyrics from Hadestown "it's a sad tale, it's a tragedy//it's a sad song//but we sing it anyway" and "it's a love song// it's a tale of love that never dies // it's a live song// about someone who tries".

I was very close to tears at work listening to the ending. But it's one of those books that even when it's done, even after everything that happens, when you open the pages again everyone is alive. Some books you just never want to open again or you feel like the arc is concluded and not worth dipping back into, but not these ones. "To know how it ends// and still begin to sing it again// as if it might turn out this time".

I have several issues with how AS treats women; honestly it's much better than many contemporaries but it doesn't mean there aren't things that I don't enjoy. I also find the amount of sexual assault in it frustrating. Some of the threads were quite difficult to follow, especially as I was reading library books and had several months long gaps between books at times. And the translation is kinda a bit wibbly. I'm sure there's lots of context I missed too as a non-Polish or even Slavic person.

But overall I really loved the books. I relate to Ciri a lot, especially on the front of having very loving parents who'd go to the end of the earth for me but having a slightly strained/complicated relationship despite that. I thought it has lots of interesting themes and world building and fantastic characters overall. I wish we could have spent more time in Kaer Morhen but that's what fics are for I guess.

I'm trying to find a good explanation of the video games plots (something quite long but that doesn't focus too much on game mechanics/ analysing it as a game specifically) so if anyone has any recommendations, I'd love to know. I'm not a gamer, I'm the type of person who'd be consumed in a way that isn't healthy for me, but I'm interested in learning about the games and what people love about them

some buds act like it is so hard to love but it is so easy. you just do nothing. in the absence of all things, we just love. it is what we are built to do. just strip off everything else, all the baggage, and love is underneath
