This blog is absolute chaos, enjoy. Magicians, HTTYD, Percy Jackson and whatever else

Finished rewatching Good Omens (in a day :) ) and damn such a good show.

Read it and read it again. Stop trying to define everything by colonial binaries and dictating other people’s identity. Stop using the language that TERFs and other transphobes brought and build in our communities. Fight this rhetoric. Embrace the irrationality of queerness. In the end, we’re the ones keeping our community alive. We have to stand up for each other and fight queerphobia, even when it comes from those within the community. Thank you, Alitsanosga for writing all of this out and sharing. (I reblogged w/alt text.)

I can't speak for other woc characters but uh fandom does not care about black woman characters. It's either:

"Omg step on me queen!!" when a character is badass (michonne, valkyrie, okoye)

Complimenting her appearance (nakia from black panther)

Making her into a one dimensional character when she's 3d in canon (shuri)

Hating on her character and actress because she's with a white male character y'all are attracted to (iris west)

And idk I'm just sick of it. Where's the meta posts? Where's the gifs of her eyes moving and you write whole headcanons about her character? Where's the fanart (that's not white washed)? Where's the fics? Where's the love and appreciation outside of a "woman power" gifset?? Do black women in fandom gotta do everything their selves just so that someone will notice a black character???

You know, this is exactly what I was missing...

Taking Nakia, for example, I haven’t seen any headcanons about her despite the fact that she’s a literal War Dog and her introduction scene consisted of her spying on the Boko Haram.

People either harshly criticize Shuri or just play her as the Smart Comic Relief™ in every story ( though there are a few admirable exceptions {in stories written by black women} ) 

As for the badass women, I’m personally fine with the “Step on my neck and crush it” posts, but you know, ??they’re whole entire people?? is that all you have to say about them? Not Val’s depression and alcoholism, or Okoye’s struggle with her position as a General under a tyrant? Cause I’ve seen ya’ll writing novels about Loki’s every expression from the very first Thor movie.

I feel that women, especially women of color are made to fit into a set of characteristics by fans even when there is a clear arc and storyline there.

If they’re prominently intelligent, they’ll remain the smart friend. (prominently anything for that matter)

If they’re a love interest or pretty face, they’ll just be that: no more exploration.

If they’re badass,  they’re just there to roundhouse kick people and be angry all the time.

Because that’s the kind of stuff people have expertise in passing generic compliments on.

And insults, when it goes as planned against that woman.

twitter changing their logo to doge really solidified how much of a garbage fire of a website it has become.

Oh and they changed it to doge because Elon is currently facing a TWO-HUNDRED AND FIFTY EIGHT BILLION DOLLAR LAWSUIT for scamming investors with dogecoin and he’s trying to bury search results for it. Because he’s the most pathetic man on Earth

Really Important News – This lawsuit is higher then this dumpster fires networth (according go google at least). If he ruins he’d have to surrender more money than he has, liquid or otherwise–in otherwords, he’d be ruined and would either have to sell his companies to pay or declare bankrupcy, either option would be hilarious so– Likes charge reblogs cast.

There is this common thing where people on Twitter will invalidate anything a person is saying just because they have "pronouns in bio."

As if this automatically disqualifies someone from discourse.

If you list your pronouns, you are not worthy of having an opinion and should be ignored.

The irony is that I have seen many theoretical physicists, world-renowned virologists, noted philosophers, and other intellectual experts with pronouns in their bio.

Whereas when you look at the bios of people who paid for their fancy blue checkmark, they are almost always up to something dubious.

"My dude" is a crypto bro who runs a poker tutorial site.

For the low price of $999 he implies you can learn how to make millions playing poker.

Though I feel like if he had the knowledge to win millions, he probably wouldn't be wasting his time selling poker courses for a thousand dollars a pop.

This man is a hundred red flags wearing a trench coat.

What would be funny is if Katie Mack trounced this guy in a game of poker.

This sounds like a shitpost but people should be allowed to be horny. As in, sexuality is just part of life for most people and there’s no reason for consensual sexual behavior to be punished. A celebrity getting “caught” at a sex club shouldn’t be a scandal. No one should be fired for having a fetlife profile outside of work. Nudes getting leaked shouldn’t be career-ending. Denying and hiding (consensual) sexual interests doesn’t make anyone more professional, it just makes everyone more repressed. And sterilizing ourselves to be better work drones isn’t productive, it’s just creepy. I’d rather my surgeon get absolutely railed on camera and come to work in a good mood, frankly.

Is anyone else just... exhausted?

Okay but hear me out, instead of doing obvious graffiti (great for a statement but not long term), make a sticky sign in the same font and color as the name of the "clinic" that says Fake Clinic or whatever in the hopes it isn't noticed right away. Most people going here are anxious, which means they are checking that sign on there way in to make sure they're in the right place, so they see it and know. However, the staff know where they are so at most glance at it (unless there is bright red graffiti).

so, uh. my fridge is empty. I basically have condiments and a box of shelf stable milk in there. I'm out of ramen and soup, and everything in my cupboards is stuff I can't physically eat right now because I'm still waiting on my oral surgery to get scheduled. can I maybe get some help to get some stuff to eat? I'm basically restricted to stuff like soup and mashed potatoes, juice, stuff like that. ignore the deadname, please. am sorry to ask about this again, but I don't really have anywhere else to turn. food banks here I've gone to this month already, and there isn't anybody else I can ask for help.

I got enough food for a day or two, which I appreciate! but I still need some help, if y'all can do anything. I'm also nearly out of TP, which is kinda. important. literally anything helps, I promise.

Most Books on Witchcraft Will Tell You Witches Work in the Nude That's because Most Books About Witches Are Written By Men

I’ve been seeing a lot of anti-Nazi ones, which is great, but I felt like we needed one to show our support for the Jewish community.  

all you goyim I follow - I see you reblogging this and it warms me.
