Imagine being 9 years old and asking your dad about the things you're interested in doing when you grow up and he's like "No ❤️! But you can get married, have babies, and then maybe your sons can do those things ☺️🫶 "
#arya stark#one of those /wtf Ned/ moments#then people act like she invented misogyny cause she was like /uuuhhhhh no thanks that's not me/#/Arya is masculine/ and she's literally just a child who has interests outside of her patriarchy-assigned role#the way people read this and then demonize Arya for not silently conforming like people expect her to...#that's the ingrained misogyny from being socialized in a patriarchal society speaking babes 😭#cannot stress enough how Arya is just an average little girl and what makes her behavior stand out is their society's strict gender norms#her life + learning almost entirely revolves around the fact that she is being raised to be a wife and people resent her for wanting more :#she is NINE in AGoT and her parents are discussing her refinement because /In a few years she will be of an age to marry/#the way misogyny is explored in Arya's story is actually so brilliant and well-written (+ underappreciated) though#we feel the full weight of how restrictive their society is through her POV and get the experiences of lower-class women too#which is why it's so significant that George wrote her based on feminists who realized they wanted more than becoming wives/housewives#she's one of his key characters who will /change the world/ but people think he's sticking her on a boat bc she isn't feminine enough 😭#thank god he's writing the books and not any of these reductive hacks who thinks misogyny is subversive 🙏🏾#sidenote: would've loved to see this from her POV to get her feelings when he said this cause I'm sure it doesn't match Ned's perception#considering he views her main issues as being stubborn/difficult while we know about the self-esteem issues she has

Your past may be behind, but it also beneath you. So use it as a foundation to build a stronger future.

I saw that post that was like "the family in tcm was uncreative" and like it's a joke post so I'm not about to be in OPs notes heated about it. but also it literally makes me crazy

girls when they can listen to their favorite music again by associating it with their favorite characters getting divorced instead of their loved one dying

🦷 ⇢ share some personal wisdom or a life hack you swear on
🏜️ ⇢ what's your favourite type of comment to receive on your work?
🍦 ⇢ name three good things about a character you hate
🌸 ⇢ do you have any pets? if you do, post some pictures of them
🦷 - personal wisdom? I don’t think I have much, I’m not a very functional human being. Sleep. Sleep is so important, and the only constant in my life. I am absolutely adamant about getting enough sleep or I become a roid raging bitch from hell (more than usual).
As for life hacks, divide up large daunting tasks into little pieces to trick the executive dysfunction, it’s not three homework assignments due by the end of the week for one class, it’s half an assignment every night, much more achievable and you get the quick dopamine (this also works for time consuming but largely mindless tasks, like lectures or meetings. It’s not 30 more minutes, it’s six sets of five minutes, or 3 sets of ten if you’re feeling spicy, (this has gotten me through so many swim practices and boring lectures, works like a charm))
🏜️ - favorite type of comment are the multi paragraph comments, especially with a quote or analysis of parts of the fic? Oh my god they’re beautiful things to receive, feed your authors yall, we’re hungry for validation and affection. (This is actually how I became really good friends with my beta reader and writer bestie, she left several multiparagraph quote referencing comments and I fell in love with her on the spot) (I will love any comment you give me though)
🍦 - I genuinely don’t know if I can think of a character I hate? Feel free to remind me or give me suggestions and I’ll list the three things but I genuinely could not tell you a character I hate off the top of my head (that’s memory issues for ya)
🌸 - I do have pets!! And I love them with my whole heart! Prepare for a comprehensive list of images of my darlings

Two of our many chickens, Red and I think the other one is Cuckoo. Our Labradoodle, Rooby Doo. The horse with the stripe down his face is Prince (Common Name: Jackass), and the darker one with only the star marking is Lizip (Common Name: Zip or Zippers).
The lab mix is Radar. Gray cat curled up is Kentucky Blue, and the tan one in the box is Mama (we’re so creative). We actually have a third cat, called Boy (Legal name: Jerry) but he looks just like Kentucky Blue so you’ve basically seen him (we did think they were the same cat for a while). (Ive just realized we have all three genders of cat: Male, Female, & Homeless and just showed up here one day).
You also get bonus pictures of last years batch of calves bc they’re cute. I couldn’t find any good photos of our ducks, but they’re not the most personable (imagine if a beige almond mom designed a duck, I love them I swear but they’re not exactly stylin).

im being so serious besties i am not cut out for academia
#like yes i know ive had a very uniquely shit experience in doing a degree i actively not only hate but also am BAD AT#but also i just. cannot hack it#'but hella you go mental and pessimistic every single exam period' i know that but. im right also#like the other day i said to my mum how much ive just been enjoying my job recently#and how huge a deal that is bc i HATE my hometown and ive never ever considered my time here as possibly being good#and my 20s will hopefully be a lot of travelling but in between that to save easier im gonna live at home#so i dont have to worry about rent so alas that means when im saving up for my next trip I WILL BE IN MY HOMETOWN#and as excited as i am for my twenties that is one huge downside to me but i was really cheerfully saying to my mum#that literally for the first time ever ive considered it might not be too bad bc lately i have just enjoyed my job#like i enjoy the people and the work and the lifestyle of it and while it's never gonna be ideal as a means to an end it's actually good#and instead of focussing on that she went OFF on one about how she wants me to stay in education and keep getting qualifications#and she was like 'you could do an english degree you've always wanted to do english or how about open university-'#and i was just sat there blinking at her like girl.... no#like i could FEEL myself shutting down like the terror of having to return to this environment when ive got my sight so set#on that 'one more year and im done one more year and im done' mindset like that has been the only thing getting my through#is that im halfway through the course now so im closer to the other end than i am the beginning and if i can just push through#ill be free from it for the rest of my life. so the thought of immediately returning to academia even for a subject i adore? i felt ILL#and my mum apologised the next day without me even having to say anything bc she realised she kinda bulldozed me there#but i just know whether it's the adhd or ive actually been traumatised by this econ degree#(<- and im being serious there like ik 'traumatised' is a big loaded word but idk what else to use#and this degree has done so so much damage to me like it has convinced me that i am fundamentally a stupid person#to the point i refuse to add up bills when with friends or do answer any sort of intellectual question even if i KNOW i know the answer#bc ive just gone so so long of being bad at the only subject im studying like just SURROUNDED by it and being bad at it relentlessly#and i dont think people realise how damaging it is to very simply just... feel stupid all the time. but oh my god i used to be so confident#and bright and now i wont even do basic addition in front of people)#i really truly dont think i can do this again in any capacity. like the constant exams and studying and assignments#i just cant do it. maybe i just need a year or two away from it after this degree but my goddddd rn i cant see it#yes it's exam time for me can u tell. it always makes me existential and on the verge of vomiting at any given moment#i hate it here i hate it here i hate it here i dont care about iterated deletion of strictly dominated strategies shut the fuck up#hella goes to uni
