#theyre vulnerable and emotional like women

[craycraybluejay]

“#but they also specifically target trans men

#they dont say shit about cis men #but constantly say insane transphobic shit to trans men and mascs”

Wow. Yeah, i really wonder why. Amabs something being socialization to develop anti-afab & pro-amab bias...maybe..? Who knows

unfortunately might be the case with some of them, I've been thinking it but don't really want to make a big point of it. moreso its just repackaged misogyny + *some* misandry through a lens of transphobia not only treating us like both dumb annoying("hysteric") women and the mythical evil murderer rapist big scary man but also just flat out saying we're inferior to them. it's weird. it's like they went out of their way to be the terf logic boogeyman and now they're both feeding each other's ideologies. some weird fucked up amalgoram of "fuck trans people AND fuck cis people fuck women and men both." Like the hate is in such a weird pretzel you can't separate it from the idea that sexism is extremely pervasive, even moreso in so called "feminist" (radfem) circles, to any and all genders and sexes. Terfs and baeddels cover all ground in hating everyone on the basis of gender, sex, and the idea that your birth conditions dictate everything. Like cmon some people's EYE COLOUR changes after they grow up and ur telling me ur making new slurs in a lab for babies labeled something or other and then using it on grownass people.

but yeah noticing they dont go after cis men is like... huh. fascinating.

a transfem friend of mine tho told me they're just looking for easy targets to bully and i think she's right tbh. going after cis people and systemic transphobia just doesn't have the same immediate emotional satisfaction as trying to bully someone from a marginalized group into killing themselves or humiliating themselves by *agreeing* that they deserve to be treated like that. it is all abusive all the way down. this "community" originated on message boards like 4chan and if u know anything ab 4chan, people love being offensive on purpose there, there is heavy right wing rhetoric and people often harass each other or encourage members of their message board to harass someone. it is wildly toxic and a lot of trans women in a certain age range (related to when 4chan was most popular) have likely been sucked into the cesspit that is the nazis and incels of 4chan. sure, most probably didnt actually follow nazis or anything into rhetoric but the comment threads have always been full of unsavory people. symbiosis or whatever.

sure, most of the gals didnt fw the whole "aryan master race" shit and whatnot but the reactionary and violent nature of how these people talk on message boards unrelated to their ideology is still very much related. one must understand that hanging out with reactionaries will either turn you into one or make you seriously angry and depressed w their insane behaviour. and people who arent armed w the knowledge to know its wrong at the time get super easily radicalized down strange paths.

#anon response #all in all i think its more a transfems from 4chan thing than 'male socialization' or wtv #remember most bullies are people who hate themselves in some way #which with dysphoria in any direction is understandable to get to that place mentally #still unacceptable behaviour but thats my thesis on where the majority of it started #then as reactionaries do they sucked in more emotionally vulnerable peoplr who were going through tough shit #terfs do the same shit #as do regular ol nazis (comforting boys on the internet who feel rejected by women or society as a whole and promising them community) #hardcore christians? same thing. u go to church to vent ab how ur aunt died and suddenlt ur lovebombed and given a task #and when ur in pain or in grief being given something straightforward to do with yourself is very alluring #smaller cults do the same thing. isolated and wronged people are insanely easy to take advantage of like that #its another reason why we should extend our support through hurt even to people we dont like if we can spare the energy #good and bad people do not exist in a vacuum #bad creates bad out of regular people who are too emotional at the time to realize its happening #im not a deprogrammer i cannot unradicalize anyone but i can check on the people around me and make sure theyre ok

[faggy--butch]

sorry to ramble in your inbox but its kinda fucking me up how "trans man with a cishet boyfriend who misgenders him behind his back" is like seen to be a person to make fun of in the general queer tumblr space instead of a person who is in a vulnerable situation. i know that there is trans men who are also women and there are trans men who are genuinely okay with dating a cis man who considers himself straight but people talking about these hypothetical couples arent talking about these situations but rather about "haha stupid trans man doesnt realize hes dating a bigot"

theres this attitude that the hypothetical cishet boyfriend is actually a conservative so it should be obvious to trans man that he doesnt respect his identity but i feel like its less "oh its obvious that this specific man is a bigot" and more "obviously cishet white men are bigots" and its weird how people laugh at this person instead of acknowledging that even if you are dating a bigot its usually not a big win for you personally. like the bigot cishet boyfriend isnt going to be okay with his trans man boyfriend starting testosterone. like we can sympathize with emotional abuse happening towards other groups but when its gay and mspec trans men its like "oh he should have known that would happen" or "its his fault for dating a bigot"?

of course people have the same making fun of the victim narrative with afab nonbinary people who date cishet men who misgender them [and im sure this bleeds over to affecting all nonbinary people if people arbitrarily decide theyre afab if the nonbinary person refuses to tell them personal information about themselves but the larger narrative always specifies that this is an afab person] and its almost like a "this is what you get for being attracted to men" sort of thing.

and also i theres something to be said about warning people for signs their partner or potential partner doesnt respect their identity but considering i imagine its a common anxiety among trans and nonbinary people who are into that sorta thing to wonder "am i ever going to find someone who loves me and is also accepting of me for being [insert gender here]?" its sort of fucked up for it to be common to basically claim "yea if youre dating a cis man who said he was straight before he started dating you but says he respects your identity hes probably just straight up lying to your face" and then laugh at the person getting misgendered for not knowing they were being misgendered.

anyway sorry for this big ramble i cant even remember specific instances of this to reference so i might seem like im making up a guy to be mad at but i swear this is like a general attitude and almost running joke i see around. anyway. have a good day.

I absolutely see that too, and I think it's a mixture of straight up victim blaming, because oh noo how dare you WANT to date *gasp* cis men

but it come with an intense transandrophobia and exorsexism because there's a lot more sympathy when it comes to cis women dating cishet men "poor things uwu" but when it's trans men or in this case non binary people assumed to be women, it's always "see I told you so" smug superiority. (cis women get this too, because of misogyny obviously, but it's different and worse for trans men) People are just waiting for a chance to be misogynistic and trans men are an acceptable target. This is honestly extra fucked up when we remember that trans men experience some of the highest rates of domestic violence and rape in the community though.

being trans is such a vulnerable place to be in, and a lot of people, trans or not are insecure or just want to be loved, that's normal. A lot of people are willing to accept certain behaviors from their partners that are bad, because of those reasons as well, victim blaming, and ESPECIALLy telling trans men to toughen up or "what did you expect" is apart of the toxic expectations that get placed of trans men as well. I could honestly go on for hours about this. good ask,anon

Astro Observation: Gemini ♊ part 1

Animation of Hyuna & Dawn for Ping Pong MV created by Hanavbara @hanavbara

👥 Gemini placements have tendencies to love to walk or how they walk is so fast or quick, like their quick wit. They love to explore and experience various types of activities which is why they can move quickly. Gemini reminds me of Hermes, the messenger of the gods in Disney Animated Movie 'Hercules'. He is quick and always flying around everywhere. Apparently Hermes represents Mercury and in Roman religion, Mercury is the god of shopkeepers and merchants, travelers and transporters of goods, and thieves and tricksters.

👥 Gemini doesn't belong to one type of group, they could go anywhere to diverse groups and socialize everywhere. They are not and cannot be categorized in one particular identity. Even though some of them would be introverted but they always have a hybrid personality which cannot be pinned down to one description, their interests are varied hence theyre informative about things around them (similar like Sagittarius). When at first they are 'A', the next time they could change themselves as 'B'. Due to its mutable modality, their expressions are unpredictable.

👥 Gemini moons could have changable unpredictable moods, one moment they could be cold and detached (especially when there are heavy emotional problems related with other people, they would prefer to avoid or disengage, unless they have fire placements) and other moment they became carefree, cheerful, snarky, lively, sensitive and vulnerable. The unpredictable moods occured due to how they need time and space to understand their own emotions first before dealing with the emotions of others.

👥 Gemini placements or Air Moons, 3rd House placements, 12th House Mercury, or Mercury dominant have talent in writings, or they have a penchant to write varied information with creative or eloquent sentences.

👥 Gemini placements either express themselves with a youthful vibe or carry themselves elegantly (mostly the females). (few examples: Lily-Rose Depp, Naomi Campbell, Hyuna, Kylie Minogue, Marylin Monroe)

👥 Gemini likes to collect/wear things based on their own personal preferences, and mostly it could be colorful things or they love to create something like Libra and those creation becomes part of their unique identity/interest, they indeed have versatile and quirky style. For example a Gemini female likes colorful jelly candies and she loves to restock them in a bowl in her office desk. Another example would be Hyuna (a KPOP Idol) with her colorful unique tattoos all over her body. But they could also have fascination to or the ability to express things with dark or unusual themes (the example is Johnny Depp with all his characters in movies). Another example of Gemini is Kylie Minogue with her variative style. Below is Hyuna & Dawn's Ping Pong Live Performance ✨️ (both of them are Geminis)

👥 Gemini women are effortlessly flirty or seductive in how they communicate whether it is intentional or not, while at the same time emotionally detached from others. They are confident in themselves so when connecting with others, they need more mental stimulations. They are like faeries *Tinkerbell* based on Manly P. Hall description about air elemental spirit in his book titled 'The Philosophy of Astrology'.

[multifandombullshitbabes]

(Context: im thinking abt my post canon au, i explained on my ao3, u dont even have to read it just know its there)

Mizu revealing her being a woman to taigen AFTER he confesses his feelings to mizu AFTER being bested during their duel once again is literally so fucking personal to me. Jesus fuck... FUCK. Like. How overwhelmingly loved she must feel. How SEEN. Truly for once n not just but loved and wanted!!! Its so personal to me. Just. Taigen, losing, n then immediately leaning in for a kiss. Mizu is lost cuz what?? Why?? N taigen just. Confesses, but hes holding back cuz mizus reaction was not great and he doesn't wanna ruin the friendship they've formed these past months, they've grown so close so fast n its scary but so exciting n so right but if mizu doesnt want this then nothing is happening n its ok he has a CHOICE. Like. FUCK!! N then mizu telling taigen to wait and that night she reveals it. And its just sooo fucking intimate. Its so soft. And maybe taigen is confused but one look at how small mizu is making herself, like shielding herself from him. Like he gets it. The danger of it all. And its his promise to protect her if she ever needs to that does her in cuz. SHE HAS A CHOICE. TO BE PROTECTED OR NOT. THATS SO IMPORTANT TO HER. Yes, she can protect herself. Yes, it feels good to be protected. Yknow??

Mizu revealing her being a woman to akemi totally by accident AFTER they just had an argument abt women's choices in society AFTER mizu accidentally took one (1) big sip of sake, n then deciding fuck it im gonna win this argument, guess what akemi. And that's how akemi finds out. N Mizu thinks akemi is going to hate her, n she does for a bit in silence, but mostly shes just hurt? For herself AND for Mizu. Cause she understands, so suddenly, so intimately, how hard being a woman is and how mizu has had to hide as a man to survive (not even for plot reasons that we know, mizu being mixed AND a woman? Death sentence). And she just hurts. And they thought they'd always have this weird rift between them but they cry and they let it out (for Mizu, for the first time in YEARS) and its just. Its so emotional n so important and so personal and intimate. Its maybe winter all over again, a year has passed since theyd seen each other in kyoto, so much has changed and yet not rly and. They've grown but in different ways. Akemi, in taking life by the reins n being assertive and strong and so dangerously intelligent like shes always been but now, now its crucial to be that. And Mizu in realizing that she truly, truly wants to be loved so badly but to be loved is to be vulnerable and thats what scares her the most, to be weak; but ure only strong if u can be weak too, and thats what she learns. And i think this is where they really get deep into their feelings. Before it was a crush, an annoying one. Now? Oh bby theyre down bad. Yes they are.

#blue eye samurai #mizu blue eye samurai #akemi blue eye samurai #taigen blue eye samurai #akemi x mizu #taigen x mizu #hey look i posted a thing #come get yall headcanons #love how once they become actual friends i feel like mizu n taigen would fall for each other so fast itd scare then #but akemi n mizu have more of a slowburn cuz they're both denying the possibility of being with the other person so its just daydreaming now #n then akemi n taigen actually just stay friends cuz i think its hilarious #they can unlock their true potential as chaotic besties now #ringo is just living his life btw. hes kinda lost rn my poor darling #itohs just like “i love my wife. wait is she fucking the onryo” proceeds to be confused and lost n “confronting” her with teary eyes #(he saw them smile at each other) #akemi just inviting him to the polycule like “can u be cool abt a lot of things real quick” #and it takes time to process but he eventually is just like. this. kind of rules. dont tell my mom i said that tho #always scared his mom is gonna find out abt thier shenanigans as if she isnt the mother of the shogun now shes got shit to do #(being the second choice always oof. oof oof. best bet im playing with thattt)

[virtualfungus]

was thinking about franmaya in bed last night and im so insane about them!!!!!!!!!

its mostly about the parallels (obsessed with them).

even before they really start to get to know each other (possibly just after the first trilogy), they feel that connection of a grim legacy they have to bear, and one they won't give up on either, with maya becoming the master of kurain and franziska still being a prosecutor.

then obviously, i think theres this forbidden (as in, pearl vehemently being against it at first) but enticing element in falling in love with the girl that prosecuted you. but thats also bc franziska is genuinely trying to become a better person. yes, she will keep saying shit like "this is the von karma's way", but over time, she wants to change what even is the von karma's way (*aggressively points to her dialogues with sebastian*)

they both really admire each others strength. speaking of which, i think franziska is one of the only person who really sees that strength in maya, bc its easy to think shes just quirky and dumb but my girl went through so much shit and yet she still smiles. ofc, not all of her smiles are genuine, but a lot are. franziska doesnt understand it at first, but comes to find her strength, her resilience, beautiful and especially inspiring; turns out being strong is not all about being tough and not showing emotions.

it may sound silly, but franziska realizes its okay to just be human and flawed (or what she perceives as flaws). bc of course franziska is deeply flawed, but either shes revering her flaws as a result of her upbringing or trying to suppress to the point of harm.

mayas like "its okay to show your emotions and be vulnerable". but, eheh... that means maya has to put her own advice into practice, which isnt easy, but is liberating.

they can both be unashamedly themselves without being judged. because before being the master of a technique that could otherwise very much disappear and that requires thorough training and being an international prosecutor taking down smuggling rings, theyre young women who had so much taken from them, including their childhood. they can be silly, they can be themselves without being their occupation first.

maya rants about the steel samurai all the time. franziska initially finds this show childish, but maya really sells it and just reading way too deeply into it, but hey, shes just so passionante and franziska loves when shes like that. on the other hand, franziska will read a shitty book and tear it apart and maya lives for the absolute violence.

of course its not always perfect. at some point, their relationship becomes long distance. on top of that, theyre not always the best at communicating their feelings clearly, especially in the beginning. franziska can get upset easily and always want to have the last word, so they can argue for a while. overtime they do learn how to communicate better and yeah.

would their relationship last forever to the point of getting married and adopt? honestly, probably not. but their relationship is deeply meaningful, and theyll forever hold the other in high regards.

there are so many other things i thought about and worded so well in my head yesterday but i forgor and now idk how to properly explain it.

look at you, could you tell me about scalpel ? : )

HI MAGGIE!!! OKOKOK!!!

scalpel was born katherine anne scranton in a aristocratic type household at the turn of the 20th century in new york. growing up she did many thing typical of a woman and took particular interest in ballet. the strength of the human body, the stress it could endure, the beautiful shapes it could make enamored her. when she got an injury in high school and could no longer participate in ballet she decided to pursue medicine instead, studying it vigorously and campaigning her father to let her study it further in university.

her father, who had no older children and no son, decided to allow it and work with his connections to get her into a school where she could study medicine. in university she did very well, she was very cutt throat, she knew she had to be better than the best of the best of her male classmates to get anywhere and so she did so, enabling her to get into medical school after university, there in medical school, she continued doing as much as she could in order to avoid scrutiny, however, many of her male classmates did not like having a female classmate that did better than them, it humiliated them and they wanted her gone.

one night, a male classmate of hers followed her home, and fearing for her life she killed him with a sharp hat pin she always kept with her. after which she was careful to dispose of the body knowing if she was ever found out it would be her that was presumed guilty no matter what.

after medical school she struggled to find a residency that would except her despite her top scores, leading her to the foundation that was really the only place willing to hire women into a mens role such as hers at the time. although, even then she didn't have any female colleagues.

in the foundation she was very guarded but very driven. she quickly made a lot of advancements. her primary inventions during her tenure being adapting clockworks orthodox standardization to lay the groundwork for all foundation augmentation paratech. and the invention of invasive amnesticization by which ppl are amnesticized through the combination use of amnestics and brain surgery. there are several techniques named after her although nowadays theyre more likely to be automatically associated with her grandson, robert scranton.

in the foundation she also married a younger man, marcus, who was an intern at the time and later her personal assistant. marcus was very loving and doting, regarding katherine as something of a celebrity, as at the time she was of similar fame as the senior staff we know and love today. she was not a very good wife to him, as her experience with men in the past made it impossible to trust him, always fearing somewhere in the back of her head that he could turn on her and that this might be some sort of long con. a lot of the things she does in their relationship is to maintain power over him so that that cannot happen and she is very rarely affectionate towards him except for when shes inebriated and isn't thinking about how if she shows one soft emotion she'll be recognized as vulnerable or decried as a useless emotional woman. (during this time she also has some sort of relationship with her female rival selma of nalkan descent of ambiguous homoeroticness)

her marriage with marcus is often criticized by her coworkers but never for the reasons it is actually bad, just because they think it's emasculating for marcus and weird, although many of them have worse dynamics and age gaps with their own wives.

they have a child together, the child takes the last name scranton bc katherine wouldn't dare not have her last name passed a long, not be remembered, it was only under that condition that she decided to get pregnant in the first place. she is not a good mother, emotionally distant and extremely demanding, she wants a legacy and her son is going to make that happen.

at some point, founder starts requiring round the clock medical care for his illness and starts looking into the use of paratech to extend his life. wanting the best of the best he employs katherine to essentially work under him and be his personal surgeon, allowing her to continue her other research. however, just a couple years later ww2 happens, and in addition so does the 7th occult war, the formation of the chaos insurgency, and the creation of the ethics committee. with the creation of the ethics committee, a majority of katherines projects are scrapped. fearing her defection she undergoes the procedures shed been developing for the purpose of creating perfect blank slate factotum, that preserve her skills while also stripping her of her memory and personality and reforming it to suit the needs of her o5. here she gets the name scalpel, and no longer remembers ever even having the name katherine.

after becoming scalpel not much in her story happens for many decades as she has very little agency. shes made to believe her memory is more faulty than it is to keep her on her toes, fearing being scrapped. she meticulously keeps a daily planner to keep track of her day to day appointments and such, worried even one mistake will have her recycled, killed with all her paratech in her body going to the next o5. she takes care of founder and his many augments, she does work for other o5s, augmenting them and their factotum as requested. she is perfectly quiet and obedient and out of the way. and that's about where she is in the modern day.

there are many ways her story could go from here, and ive come up with several different variations, however, this post is already quite long so i will end it here.

things i loved about natla:

sokka. just sokka. all his scenes were great. obviously they gave his character more emotional weight earlier on, so he is not as goofy. his sarcasm is still there though, his stubborness, his willingness to learn. he is still the comic relief of the season but youre clearly meant to take him more seriously and and and i love him your honor

suki i love you!!!!!! great to see her be just as into sokka as sokka is into her. not her trying to connect with sokka by showcasing her skills as a warrior and instead intimidating and emasculating him im-

iroh and zukos relationship is so soft. the funeral scene had me sobbing. zuko allowing himself to be vulnerable in front of one (1) person im melting im warm butter im soft

katara being the heart of team avatar, aangs greatest supporter, and just as stubborn as sokka - ALSO SHE FUCKING TAUGHT HERSELF WATERBENDING WITH ONLY A FEW INSPIRING WORDS FROM AANG AND JET LITERALLY I LOVE HER SHES SO COOL

the bending cgi was great

azulas abuse being pretty explicit i mean come on did you see ozais little smirk after 'praising' zuko to her face while calling her an asskisser - the emotional manipulation is real he could not care less about either of his children he sees them as tools only

the menstrils

the cave of two lovers being about sokka and kataras sibling love

GYATSO MY HEART MY SOUL tears grief pain

on that note - my god they really had to show how vibrant and unique the air nomad culture was huh, makes you really feel aangs loss

irohs past as a warlord coming back to haunt him and iroh not exactly being perfectly empathic or a saint about it - shows complexity and im glad

hahn being a sweetheart and a hunk (also sokkas bisexuality was strong with this one)

just everytime sokka and katara fight theyre such siblings

also notice how katara only really lets her temper loose on sokka - the amount of trust that takes, she knows he would never leave her even if she hurts him

zuko and aangs conversation in ep 6

katara and sokkas painful memories in ep 5 my god my heart

the sexism of the north being less about women being inferior and weak and more about traditional gender roles that both women and men perpetuate

things that truly baffled (annoy the fuck out of) me:

momo sacrificing himself for a random water tribesperson like momo is an animal with animal instincts why would he risk himself for a stranger

aang not learning waterbending at all

its definitely not the og animated show but i like it anyway. i laughed, cried, yelled through it all and what more can you ask for really.

#natla #natla spoilers #pro natla #live action atla #netflix atla #like obviously #there are several other things i could mention #but these are my strongest feelings

[olddustorange]

also one strange thing about living in increasingly deracinated atomistic alone onlineworld but exposed vulnerable-to-being-in-background-of-tiktok socialmediasurveillancestate all-knowledge-can-be-googled life is that, COUNTERINTUITIVELY, even more people slip through the cracks of being TOLD about their own QUALITIES than EVER. like they just don’t know and they assume if they don’t know it by now then it just isnt a thing. as in specifically there are a lot of stunningly beautiful girls who have literally never been told that theyre pretty and when u do it theyre like surprised and get emotional and the first time it happens and a beautiful girl says no one has ever told her that before its like hm -_- i think shes LYINNGGGG this is like humble deflection of compliments she must get told all the time but actually sometimes they have GENUINELY not heard it before and the question is why is that like how did they slip thru the cracks and i think it’s the fact that it’s assumed that they have already heard it so it does not need to be said + consolationprizecultureso u don’t sincerely believe it when u hear it IF you are told it i guess = the current situation. MANY BEAUTIFUL GIRLS OUT THERE. STAY WOKE STAY AWARE BEAUTIFUL WOMEN

#my sophomore roommate was literally seriously model gorgeous and one time she came into my room and cried about being ugly and it was like #is this performance art or something like what is this u r beautiful but no one had ever told her that

yeah i definitely liked sanuso more than i liked sanji. before... before i came to like sanji. i don't think i was rly an Actual Fan though. seeing fan content of sanji (shipping content included) is part of what made me grow to like him. so ur right that a ship i like with characters i dont like would make me grow to like the characters!!

tashigi and reiju is so insanely good.. theyre perfect for each other...

LMAO ISNT THAT PRICE A BIT STEEP?? nami moment

robin definitely would notice but it would have so much more impact to have luffy intervene imo?? he is probably the most important person to both of them (arguably true for all the crew) and also he just . idk hes emotionally intelligent. hes perceptive. people dont give him enough credit. luffy is not stupid!!!!

"he and robin can be similar and enies lobby is what made everyone love her more…" YEAH EXACTLY!!! there doesnt need to be a whole arc but just show us that he isnt JUST the cool guy. i need him to cry .... i need emotional vulnerability.. please oda ..... on my knees begging for this. PLEASE Oda...

"already there babes 🫡 just doing my part" thank u

"DID. DID THEY ACTUALLY CALL HIM TRACE HEATFIST IN THE 4KIDS DUB…ARE U SERIOUS RN…IVE NEVER HEARD THAT BEFORE PLEASE SAY SIKE." YES THEY ACTUALLY DID. its a stupid change but HIS VOICE IS SO COOL... theres a scene where he and luffy meet on alabasta n luffy is like: hey, trace?! and trace is like "yours truly 😎😏🔥 hey luffy, whats up? 🔥🔥💪✨" and i fucking Fell In Love on first listen. i have the biggest . fattest crush on 4kids ace. why is he so suave. why is he so cool. pathetically showing my love for the worst dub's version of the best character

i was so relieved that luffy sounded different that i can forgive anything else. i don't care if the acting is worse...

AT A CHRISTIAN GALLERY???? ur so brave

"i will share embarrassing stories like my life depends on it"

(hoping i havent used this image before)

THE SPOTLIGHT ON SANJI.... THAT IS SO FUNNY...

"BUT IM TOO BUSY READING ONE PIECE" good point... reading both would be hard.. /gen

"lion…and wings…so u want to be a griffin 👁️" i did not realize this. but yes i GUESS I DO?? i like manticores and unicorns the most out of any fantasy creature but i could never be a manticore bc it means i keep my face.. and unicorn.... doesnt have cool paws... oh and i love dragons... i WOULD be a dragon but i would like to be like. fluffy.. i want to be fluffy..

"DIDN THE BEAT OUT ZORO IN THE POPULARITY POLLS ONE TIME" YEAH HE DID... i dont know maybe i just missed it?? there were a lot of ppl there... and my memory is kinda hazy.. i will be on the lookout for law next time i go to a con

"WRONG bangs my sanji gavel." I FORGOT U WERW THE SANJI MAGISTRATE..... please forgive me....

that is so cool 🥹

"also sanji’s love for mice/rats makes me fucking insane bc its the cutest thing on earth." I KNOW RIGJT... like hes a cook.. he should hate them... but he doesnt!!! hes super fond of them!!! because he had mice friends at the lowest point in his life!!!! GOD.. i also used to love mice so . thank u sanji. representing rodent lovers. im having too many moments lately where i relate to sanji.... former sanji hater becomes sanji

"SANJI LOVES MICE MORE THAN WOMEN CONFIRMED-" GENUINELY!!!

"they’re all expecting sanji to freak and kill them and then they walk in and he’s made them tiny stir fry and is calling them cutesy names." STOP THATS SUCH CUTE IMAGERY 😭😭😭 sanji would never hit a woman mouse.

"also all the fan content ive seen where ratatouille is his favorite movie. ANYONE CAN COOK!!!!! 😭" IT MAKES SO MUCH SENSE

"we turn a sad into a frrAAANKKYYYYYYYY" HSJDHS

"ROBIN WHYYY WAS THAT THE FIRST THING YOU THOUGHT OFFFF SHE IS INSANE. SHE’S SO WEIRD." IN HER DEFENSE, THEY WERE RIGHT THERE. HOW COULD SHE NOT... HOW COULD SHE NOT EVEN THINK ABOUT IT ....

"should i send some on discord as well. is that how i break the ice. images of sanji with his ass up in the air (my collection)" YES..... YES DO IT.... in return i will sned... uhmm... law!??

ok but sanji in glasses. even at the peak of my sanji hatred i begrudgingly admit that he was very attractive in those glasses...

LOOK AT HIM SOB... whole cake island was kinda his enies lobby emotional depth moment???

heres this loser

EAT

i have this sanji saved bc he looks so pathetic and sad

omg nooo how did choso get in here ...... noooo ...... that was a big accident.... completely an accident.... not on purpose at alll........

usopp out here converting more ppl to sanji likers than i am…smh. i do love the way sanji backs him up so often in canon tho, its very sweet

KNJKCDNA WAIT THE $5,000 A MONTH THING? I MEAN YES. BUT DO YOU KNOW THE YE OLDE TUMBLR JOKE IM REFERENCING? DO U REMEMBER COMMUNISMKILLS…THAT AWFUL TUMBLR USER THAT THEN WAS LIKE “i’ll shut up if u pay me $5000 a month” actually deranged and iconic. here’s a post about it

the entire crew IS important to both of them but arguably he is the only person on the crew they would listen to in a situation like that is luffy yea. he’s the mutual friend that they both love deeply and loves both of them deeply even tho they hate (“hate”) each other. AND he’s emotionally intelligent and wise!! yea!!

joining u in the begging for sad zoro. campaigning for abusing zoro in the next chapters. ready to make this meme real

NOT TRACE HEATFIST…his voice did seem cool tho ur right. i like to imagine he speaks with the emojis like you typed them. (“how are you saying that out loud-”) is the crush only on 4kids ace specifically..sorry sorry TRACE. IS IT ONLY FOR TRACE

I WANT TO STEAL ALL THESE REACTION IMAGES HAHAHA

WAIT IS IT A SPOTLIGHT. I THOUGHT THEY HAD TRAPPED HIM UNDER A CUP LIKE A BUG KJAFHBdiwjnwd

dragons. [breathes in] dude i love dragons so fucking much. i watched that documentary animal planet or discovery made where they said dragons lived in the prehistoric time with t rex and shit and BELIEVED IT FOR SO LONG. also obsessively played httyd games on the internet and other Dragon Themed Things. and i had legend of spyro: a new beginning for the gamecube and it was like my first ever video game i owned myself that wasnt a hand me down and i beat it literally 9+ times…after 9 i stopped keeping track..i loved spyro and CYNDER so much. CYNDER WAS SO COOL. THAT WHOLE GAME WAS SO COOL. just last year i started playing flight rising (but i fell off lmao)

“former sanji hater becomes sanji” KJSDBDNKJSN YEAH relating to sanji is half of why i love him. and the amount i relate to him is. way far more than i thought i would ever relate to. the pervert stereotype anime character of any given show. so mad…but also i love him a lot 😭 has become a bit of a comfort character for me UNFORTUNATELY…but i relate to his passion and his low self esteem and his self sacrificial nature and his (percieved) gender issues and even his stupid easy-to-fall-in-love shtick. god. anyways

MICE > WOMEN ‼️‼️‼️CONFIRMED

I WANT TO PUT THE SANJI FEEDING MICE AND THE CREW IS CONFUSED SCENE IN A FIC SO BAD BUT I HAVE WRITERS BLOCK ATM 😭

“sanji would never hit a woman mouse.” sanji vs. minnie mouse his hardest battle yet

ROBIN….ROBIN 😭 I WILL CONDONE ALL HER ACTIONS BC I LOVE HER BUT SHES SO STRANGE 😭

SANJI ASS IN THE AIR COMING UR WAY

dude. thank you for saying that bc. when sanji had those fucking glasses on as mr. prince in alabasta. i was simping just a little bit. and mad about it.

AND ALSO UM??? WHAT THE FUCK WAS THIS?? STOP BEING PRETTY???

this outfit was gay as hell by the way. like how am i supposed to believe that is a fuly straight man-

“whole cake island was kinda his enies lobby emotional depth moment???” it 1000% was down to him leaving the crew and needing to be rescued and learn to love himself and live for himself. robin and sanji are my two favorite strawhats and GOD THE SIMILARITIES ARE BRUISING. have u seen that post where its drawings of each of the strawhat “rescue teams” of arlong park, enies lobby, and whole cake?

law 1: edgy. flipping u off. deranged. a bit evil looking. kinda hot

law 2: naptime. flourishing. in his lane. never done wrong in his life. thats just a guy

“EAT” KJDBVSDAJBCJDA

NOOO THAT SANJI IMAGE GENUINELY MAKES ME SO SAD BUT HE ALSO LOOKS SO SO PATHETIC 😭 SOPPING WET CAT OF A MAN

okay im going to be vulnerable and admit though ive owned house of leaves for a few months i was spurred to start reading it the other day after watching that video on myhouse.wad . no one make fun of me. that being said.

im not necessarily going though it super in depth and more just trying to unravel some stuff for funsies with some various help from old forums and what strikes me as sometimes glaringly missing from discussions on the book is the way it relates to women. like the fact that the house itself is treated as though it has a female identity will get talked about but theres not rlly discussions about the ramifications of that--how will and holloways posturing--named as explicitly about 'male dominance'--is essentially a fight over who gets to get the girl. wills early venture into the house is literally likened to karen kissing wax, like theyre BOTH infidelities, and thats not nearly the first time karen herself treats the situation like the house is her romantic rival or at least rival for wills attention (im not far enough in to have too solid a grasp on the implications of the name delial--but lets just say i have a suspicion?).

anyway whats maybe even more interesting than that is the way its kinda ALL about gender--its men who keep entering the house desperate to know what its about, its men driven to write about it and uncover its secret knowledge, and it drives them fucking crazy. like...you can read that--VERY EASILY--as men 'discovering' the ""hidden"" interiority of women, like, the very idea that women are complex people with their own ideas and emotions and inner worlds. the fact that the house has a secret inside is huge fucking news and just about every man in the novel reacts to it as such, but the reactions from women are like...not that. idk im not done with it by any means but the similarity between the conversations between karen & wax at the end ch VII and johnny & thumper at the end of VIII really apparent. when thumper is listening to johnny, seeking to understand him, being really invested and interested and not reacting with annoyance or disdain or boredom like he expects, it genuinely really knocks him out to the point he nearly cries--and then he bottles it up, writes it off, even when she echoes karens exact words flirting with wax he doesnt register it.

the text displays a consciousness around gendered expectations here, particularly bc thumper is a sex worker, that she cant be expected to intellectually engage w it, but she can and does...and then johnny doenst know what to DO about it, how to engage w a real moment of understanding between the sexes or whatever so he very consciously falls back on gender expectations for men and refuses to feel that connection, severing the tie he inadvertently built w her and consigning the moment to unknowable blackness. the void is invented by people determined to treat it as foreign--which often means treating it as hostile (holloways gun, johnnys suspicions when thumper didnt call him back).

that she ends with the comment 'you just need to get out of the house' is like...almost laughably on the nose especially w the way chauvanist culture has proliferated on the internet. like in the book too, dont get me wrong, its just so startlingly accurate to whats going on it seems like she really must UNDERSTAND in a way johnny fails to capture in his narration but still comes through due to her being kinda fucking great--sorry i REALLY like thumper in this actually she may be my favorite. its sort of difficult for me to look at the line and divorce it in my head from the phenomenon of the incel--read a certain way, you have johnny ranting and raving about how he just cant ever figure out what the collective 'woman' is thinking and all this time hes spent driving himself crazy about it, and thumper listening and understanding and very sympathetically and honestly saying 'that wouldnt be a big deal if you interacted w women instead of holing up inside trying to theorize about it.'

i dont necessarily think its a mistake that johnny is the kind of person he is, a partying womanizer or whatever, bc sex becomes his only interaction w women (his failure to talk abt the book w kyrie in favor or fucking her) just as entering the house becomes wills only interaction w it (or at least he rages when he cant have that interaction, he values it above others). the book is pretty clear about both of these acting as forms of penetration. as johnny gets more invested in the text he interacts more and more w the women zampano used as interpreters and comes more and more into contact w women and less and less able to deny their interiority.

the reaction from men that women are people is simple and plain disbelief, followed by disconnected, invasive, rigorous study, study that is likened to war, to surgery, to expedition--anything but understanding. its kind of baffling idk maybe im just not looking in the right place to see people talking about it but this sorta feels like...the point. hell even earlier in ch VII on page 91 you get will and holloway excitedly talking about calling the press about their huge discovery that no one will believe...and then just, karen, living her life, treated like an enigma. i literally have this written in my notes as "men discover women have internality; their wives decline to comment"

#myposts #thats not even to mention the uncanny similarities of the whalestoe letters to some stuff in the rest of the book #the intrusion of men the inability of men to understand women as a form of violence. etc #thats not to say i find it particularly groundbreaking a feminist analysis of gender relations or anything? #its more just like...hey where are the mediocre liberal feminists in talking about this this would totally be their thing #idk i very well might be just looking the wrong place #and again im not finished with it. so i could be dead fucking wrong #but at least rn its the main thing i keep seeing pop up over n over

Potentially unpopular opinion but I worry a lot for young women in trad circles. A while I remember we used to laugh at this trad woman for reasons (calling women sluts while dating a married man and liking a shit ton of porn). But now I kinda feel bad for making fun of her bc it was pretty obvious she was mentally ill and her boyfriend was cheating on her. It seems like some women with mental illness and trauma are drawn to these communities because of the sense of security they seem to bring but it makes them more vulnerable to abusive situations.

eh i mean yeah their situation is often worrying and theyre often at risk of misogyny bc they associate themselves with extremely misogynistic ideologies but i dont spend that much time worrying about them either. these are the same women who are pushing misogynistic rhetoric that harms all women and often also homophobic & racist rhetoric on top of it. i hope they get out of it and i dont wish that they face misogynistic violence or sth of the sort but also i dont waste my emotions on them at the same time

[magnoliamyrrh]

like sorry to be real for a sec. everyone here knows i dont trust men i dont like them i dont want to be around them they freak me out and im angry often. i dont say the whole "not all men thing" bc thats not necessarily and stupid but

some of the only men ive known who i actually fully trust and love and can vibe w have been more emotional, sensitive, submissive men w mommy issues. like sorry thats just how it is ive seen it over and over again. those are the men who even my insanely traumatized ass actually feels safe around and trusts bc i know theyd never do anything to harm a woman sexully or physically. because they dont crave power over women, they crave women having power. theyre some of the only men who genuinely care about womens issues and struggles and pains and who are truly disgusted by the patriarchy and what women go through. theyre some of the only men ive seen who will bend over backwards to take care of the women in their lives and respect them and support them. theyre the ones who dont have a huge male ego. theyre like the only ones disgusted w the endless worship or males and the societal shift from women no longer having respect and more power in society. they're the ones who dont scare me bc frankly theyre more intimidated of me than i am of them. theyre the ones who tend to me more soulful and vulnerable and emotional and not scared to be "feminine." theyre like the only men i know who u can have hours long conversations about matriarchy with and who hold that yea actually that's way better and society functions much better when the relation between men and women is moreso of a partnership with women holding more power. theyre the ones that want ppl to be gentle and caring. theyre the ones who would actually beat up or murder men who hurt women or children and who call out other men on their shit

like??? i get complaining abt men all day long but its always a bit ? to me when women who do also hate these sorts because theyre like. basically the only ones i trust and can stand

these are also. often men who have themselves experienced some sort of trauma sexual or physical from other males and who have sympathy for women bc of this and who also want males to stop being crazy
