It’s autism awareness month, it’s now a hate crime to diss on ghostbusters for a month.

[inkskinned]

you're grabbing lunch with a nice man and he gives you that strange grimace-smile that's popular right now; an almost sardonic "twist" of his mouth while he looks literally down on you. it looks like he practiced the move as he leans back, arms folded. he just finished reciting the details of NFTs to you and explaining Oppenheimer even though he only watched a youtube about it and hasn't actually seen it. you are at the bottom of your wine glass.

you ask the man across from you if he has siblings, desperately looking for a topic. literally anything else.

he says i don't like small talk. and then he smiles again, watching you.

a few years ago, you probably would have said you're above celebrity gossip, but honestly, you've been kind of enjoying the dumb shit of it these days. with the rest of the earth burning, there's something familiar and banal about dragging ariana grande through the mud. you think about jeanette mccurdy, who has often times gently warned the world she's not as nice as she appears. you liked i'm glad my mom died but it made you cry a lot.

he doesn't like small talk, figure out something to say.

you want to talk about responsibility, and how ariana grande is only like 6 days older than you are - which means she just turned 30 and still dresses and acts like a 13 year old, but like sexy. there's something in there about the whole thing - about insecurity, and never growing up, and being sexualized from a young age.

people have been saying that gay people are groomers. like, that's something that's come back into the public. you have even said yourself that it's just ... easier to date men sometimes. you would identify as whatever the opposite of "heteroflexible" is, but here you are again, across from a man. you like every woman, and 3 people on tv. and not this guy. but you're trying. your mother is worried about you. she thinks it's not okay you're single. and honestly this guy was better before you met, back when you were just texting.

wait, shit. are you doing the same thing as ariana grande? are you looking for male validation in order to appease some internalized promise of heteronormativity? do you conform to the idea that your happiness must result in heterosexuality? do you believe that you can resolve your internal loneliness by being accepted into the patriarchy? is there a reason dating men is easier? why are you so scared of fucking it up with women? why don't you reach out to more of them? you have a good sense of humor and a big ol' brain, you could have done a better job at online dating.

also. jesus christ. why can't you just get a drink with somebody without your internal feminism meter pinging. although - in your favor (and judgement aside) in the case of your ariana grande deposition: you have been in enough therapy you probably wouldn't date anyone who had just broken up with their wife of many years (and who has a young child). you'd be like - maybe take some personal time before you begin this journey. like, grande has been on broadway, you'd think she would have heard of the plot of hamlet.

he leans forward and taps two fingers to the table. "i'm not, like an andrew tate guy," he's saying, "but i do think partnership is about two people knowing their place. i like order."

you knew it was going to be hard. being non-straight in any particular way is like, always hard. these days you kind of like answering the question what's your sexuality? with a shrug and a smile - it's fine - is your most common response. like they asked you how your life is going and not to reveal your identity. you like not being straight. you like kissing girls. some days you know you're into men, and sometimes you're sitting across from a man, and you're thinking about the power of compulsory heterosexuality. are you into men, or are you just into the safety that comes from being seen with them? after all, everyone knows you're failing in life unless you have a husband. it almost feels like a gradebook - people see "straight married" as being "all A's", and anything else even vaguely noncompliant as being ... like you dropped out of the school system. you cannot just ignore years of that kind of conditioning, of course you like attention from men.

"so let's talk boundaries." he orders more wine for you, gesturing with one hand like he's rousing an orchestra. sir, this is a fucking chain restaurant. "I am not gonna date someone who still has male friends. also, i don't care about your little friends, i care about me. whatever stupid girls night things - those are lower priority. if i want you there, you're there."

he wasn't like this over text, right? you wouldn't have been even in the building if he was like this. you squint at him. in another version of yourself, you'd be running. you'd just get up and go. that's what happens on the internet - people get annoyed, and they just leave. you are locked in place, almost frozen. you need to go to the bathroom and text someone to call you so you have an excuse, like it's rude to just-leave. like he already kind of owns you. rudeness implies a power paradigm, though. see, even your social anxiety allows the patriarchy to get to you.

you take a sip of the new glass of wine. maybe this will be a funny story. maybe you can write about it on your blog. maybe you can meet ariana grande and ask her if she just maybe needs to take some time to sit and think about her happiness and how she measures her own success.

is this settling down? is this all that's left in your dating pool? just accepting that someone will eventually love you, and you have to stop being picky about who "makes" you a wife?

you look down to your hand, clutching the knife.

#writeblr #this is a mashup of like 3 dates i accidentally went on lol #by that i mean that i was out with a woman on a date in 2 of these situations #and a man just. joined us. and we were too awkward to say anything while he tried to ''date'' me #& one was a longterm friend that i was like. you what???? #like he's nice he's a doctor and my mom was SO happy she was like raquel think about it #''it's a perfect love story you grew up together and reconnected as adults and like the same things and he's friends with ur brother #and his sister is one of ur close friends!!!'' #yes but alas. he is a boy . she only likes girls. can i make it any more obvious #anyway im tryna write about like the force of male attention being actually incredibly ingrained to women like we are SUPPOSED to like it #it's seen as the only important thing #even if ur gay #and it's a nuanced thing idk #and while rn i i.d. as lesbian #like .... it wouldn't be UNTRUE to say i am probably like ''cusp bisexual'' bc i CAN experience attraction to men bc like . #sexuality is fluid... #don't tell straight ppl tho bc they do not understand the concept that ppl don't necessarily need a solid everlasting label #they're like GET in the BOX #if ur gay & in boston i'm 30 and pretty please come kiss me. #(i usually only date older ppl sorry in advance tho)

if hearing a girl criticize consumerism and beauty/makeup/anti-body hair culture or even just saying they don't like wearing makeup or shaving or performing femininity immediately makes you label them a pick-me maybe that's your own conscience or internalised guilt projecting just sayin'. maybe she isn't the one who thinks you're anti-feminist for wearing makeup (let's face it she most probably doesn't because most people fucking wear makeup) but your visceral defensiveness at someone just existing outside conventional beauty standards says more about you than it probably does about them

#anti beauty culture #anti makeup #anti shaving #girlblogging.pdf #yes this is about that stupid tiktok trend of everyone ragging on the one girl for saying she thinks makeup is bad for women #it literally objectively is. you can wear it if it makes you feel comfortable no one's judging you but it's an objective truth #and even if you think it's a choice for you it isn't for everyone and you need to be blind to not realise that

honestly, it feels a bit of a disservice to me how people immediately label kotoko as someone who doesn't care for the people she saves when there's clearly a much more interesting relationship at hand here!

we know how kotoko gets when she doesn't care: she's stone-faced, she's self-assured, she's above it all ...but when a scared little girl hugs her? she doesn't roll her eyes or click her tongue; instead, she freezes, sweats profusely, and yanks the child off her. she just murdered someone seconds ago but it's the child she's antsy with?

Kotoko: "Treat you like a child? Hah, you’ve got to be kidding. Back when I was your age, I was already the person I am today. I don’t have any plans to let you get away with something just “because you’re a child.” ...Remember that."

i don't want to say anything concrete just yet but—especially when you take a look at mikoto—there's a very obvious fear at play with kotoko's relationship in protecting someone weaker than her. just like there's newborn imagery baked into john doe's character, kotoko is the little red riding hood, the child, who's been swallowed by a wolf.

#and it's also annoying because like... kotoko DOES care about that little girl? #like!! look at the way the mv frames her! cute and innocent who even got a little hat to match kotoko awww isn't that so cute? #compare this to say- the angry men that talked to shidou in throw down. one singular frame with no eyes #like yes she's clearly she's affectionate but this kid is at the very least important enough to share her spotlight #♡. cinnamon lead astray #milgram #kotoko yuzuriha

Hey sorry, the KSBD Girls have been turned into cutesy anime girls. Yes, they are chibs now. Yes, their eyes are massive. No, the process is irreversible. We are very sorry, nothing can be done about it anymore.

That was going to be Too Many Chibs #So this is like Book 1 and/or 2 (Cio's outfit is from Wielder of Names) #(Allison's is from the end of Book 1 and White Chain... Book 1?) #(I drew these forever ago I can't remember anymore man) #Anyways read KSDB it is Very Good #Definitely one of those comics that has just ruined my life because I am never going to experience anything quite like it again #I don't even know where to start just go fucking read it man

What your favorite mean girls ship says about you

Cadnis: You're a theater kid and there's a good chance you're neurodivergent. If you're a writer, you're just a silly goofy guy (you have committed atrocities).

Rejanis: You love heart-rending, soul-crushing angst with a side of angry kissing, and you've probably struggled with self hatred at some point in your life.

Cadina: *Tiktok voice* We get it! You like this one!! (You want sexual tension thick enough to cut with a knife and you're probably a Reneé Rapp stan)

Fetchen: I mean this with all of the love in the world, but this is the junk food of ships. You want your tooth rotting fluff with the emotional depth of a puddle, and in this world? Who can blame you.

Polystics: You thought "Hey, wouldn't it be funny-” ONE TIME and then immediately fell into the vortex.

Regret: Your ship is wish fulfillment with a sole target audience of Gretchen "Please don't ignore me" Weiners. I don't think anything I could say would be more biting than that fact

Karina: Unfortunately, you do not exist outside of my mind palace. But if you did exist, you'd definitely be a friends to lovers girlie.

Jaren: You're my best friend <3 hi parker.

Jatchen: You're one of the surprisingly few people in this fandom who can't bring themselves to forgive Regina George.

Damiaaron: You are the "gays" part of "the girls and the gays". But also you don't exist, this is no one's favorite

Cadaaron: Who are you and how did you get into Lesbianism: The Fandom? Are you lost?

Caden: wouldn't you like to know weather boy

Cadchen: Ok, the tags are partially a lie solely because I've never considered this particular ship before right now as I'm writing this and I'm not sure why not.

#obligatory disclaimer that this post is all in jest #and if it makes you feel better as a multishipper i have literally shipped everything on this list at some point #yes even THAT one #i hope y'all like my rarepair naming abilities i wanted to be extra thorough #mean girls musical #mean girls #mean girls 2024 #mean girls broadway

i Do Not Trust people who make Mary the bad guy in their stories when the show went out of its way to specifically show us how she was suffering just as much as stede was in their marriage and that shes, yknow, a good person

#mary is specifically framed in a sympathetic light in all of her appearances. the show switches to following her narrative so we can see #how much better her new life is for her too!!! like yes she tries to kill stede but we are shown in the narrative WHY she makes that choice #and that she struggles with it and we see stede understanding this too! he supports her decisions and her new life and is happy for her!!! #at no point are we shown anything that makes mary a bad person or bad mother- honestly i generally like mary far more than stede anyway #but even if you dont you should be able to acknowledge... that if u make her the bad guy??? w. what did you take away from the show?? #idk it has the vibes of. the girl character all the fans hate because she gets in the way of their precious little gay ship #or whatever. you know what i mean #ofmd #our flag means death #mary bonnet #mary allamby bonnet #everyone whos a mary hater is also an izzy hater bc theyre coded the same character type. betrayed wives my beloved #(this is a joke.) #uh. this might be one to add in the tags on again sorry gang i have too many thoughts

hey dana why’d you have to add king to the traumatized kid club

Liminal Scarecrow

I see a lot of Scarecrow in DCxDP, usually as a plot device in tandem with his fear gas. And honestly, I’ll accept just about anything with a Scarecrow mention in it. However, there is one thing I doubt a lot of DCxDP fans know about from the DP side, which is the Scarebeast.

The Scarebeast is what was created when the Penguin decided to experiment on Scarecrow, essentially turning him into a living weapon.

It’s a giant monster that naturally produces fear gas in its body, and Scarecrow can only return to human form once the Scarebeast has been defeated.

I think that the Scarecrow could easily be a liminal of some sort, and the Scarebeast could be a manifestation of ghostly power.

Now, it should be noted that Scarecrow (to my knowledge) hasn’t died and been revived. He also hasn’t used the Lazarus pits. He gets beaten to hell and back on a regular basis, but he never actually dies.

However, we know that you don’t necessarily have to die to become a halfa. Vlad didn’t; instead, he was shot in the face with ectoplasmic energy by the malfunctioning proto-portal.

Also, we were never told exactly how the Scarebeast was created. Sure, we know that one of the Penguin’s scientists mutated him into existence, but we don’t know exactly what she used.

It’s not really so much of a stretch to think that he could have been exposed to some form of ectoplasm in order to stabilize or power his monstrous form, and as such became liminal (or a halfa).

Hell, all the other (canon) halfas in existence were created in a lab setting! Danny was mutated by ectoplasm and electricity when the portal opened, Vlad was blasted in the face by the previous portal, and Dani/Ellie was a clone.

Basically, give Scarecrow cool ghost privileges. He’s already got the creepy aesthetic. It’s what he deserves.

#dcxdp #dc x dp #dp x dc #dpxdc #dp x dc crossover #dc x dp prompt #liminal scarecrow #yes scarecrow is my little guy and one of my favorite rogues. yes I’m biased. what’s your point #writing this after waking up from a nap so it’s probably choppy and incoherent. don’t care you all have to hear me out #also when the comics actually care about his character he’s really interesting #like the one where he attacked his ex-student’s assaulter after she came to him for help #or when he acted like a fucking slasher villain to help a girl get back at her bullies (even if he was betrayed in the end) #he’s an interesting guy and I’d love to see more of him in the dcxdp fandom #like he HAS a moral compass #it’s fucked up beyond all belief but he does have one

that whole "taking yourself out on a date" thing is so real this is AWESOME i dressed all nice, got me some tea from a local shop, bought some gay little earrings from a different shop and generally just had a very nice time <3 highly recommend <3

#ramblings with major #i also got a vintage planter FOR FREE because it was slightly damaged. like girl hello?? #i didn't even know it EXISTED and one of the workers hits me with 'hey do you want this? happy valentine's day have a little planter' #like hi hello yes thank you?? this is so awesome i'm gonna see what i can fit in this tiny planter

crazy take: aside from actual lesbian romance stories, obviously, nothing passes the bechdel test better than moe "cute girls doing cute things" anime. its always just a group of girls, few to no named male characters, boys and dating are hardly ever brought up beyond the abstract, if at all. like we're focusing on the girls hanging out rn, we dont need to worry abt that shit. mugi just ate mio's strawberry.

#this doesnt mean i think all ''cute girls doing cute things'' anime is feminist btw #thats not my take. the test itself isnt a metric for feminism #im just saying if you take the rules purely at face value. that type of show kills it #but also no the genre isnt for the male gaze! everyone go watch 'a place further than the universe' and develop some emotions #even k on which i joked abt in the post- its actually a bit complicated bc of the way the anime deviates from the manga #but the short of it is the further it gets away from its source and becomes its own thing the more it becomes abt the girls #s2 being all original was the strongest. its a great story about the fleeting nature of youth and lasting friendships actually #ppl dont give it enough credit. yes its slice of life ofc but its really good #also not to mention bocchi. everyone loved bocchi. in that show they literally have a joke where they dont show the dads face #bc no male characters LOL #the acceptation being that one club owner who is meant to be more feminine? manga readers know more abt that tho

[demadogs]

people using the fact that its set in the 80s for evidence on why byler couldnt happen have zero braincells

#some of the best gay stories are period peices #portrait of a lady on fire! cable girls! aristotle and dante! evelyn hugo! #and if you wanna include the ones that are just subtext but dont really happen the list is even longer. IT. dead poets society. #yes dps is gay i will fight anyone on this #stranger things #byler #1k

Imagine if Vaggie and Alastor bond together over their hatred of men.

There'd be a whole funny song about it, only for the final verse to be Alastor saying, "I've always felt like a woman anyway!"

The song would proceed to end due to Vaggie short-circuiting over what Alastor just said.

#ocean speaks #vaggie #alastor #yes #al will be a girl one day #sources: dude trust me #hazbin hotel #fem! alastor #transfem alastor #feminine! alastor #trans alastor #feminine alastor #you guys cant even deny it #it does sound like something alastor would say #like imagine vaggie just realizing one of the men she hates the most isnt even a man #also i have been a firm believer of this since al first became my blorbo #transfem!

[katnissmellarkkk]

inspired by reading @thegreenthepeacetheorange’s mockingjay reread.

this is probably just me but this line

A chill runs through me. Am I really that cold and calculating? Gale didn’t say, “Katniss will pick whoever it will break her heart to give up,” or even “whoever she can’t live without.” Those would have implied I was motivated by a kind of passion. But my best friend predicts I will choose the person who I think I “can’t survive without.” There’s not the least indication that love, or desire, or even compatibility will sway me. I’ll just conduct an unfeeling assessment of what my potential mates can offer me. As if in the end, it will be the question of whether a baker or a hunter will extend my longevity the most.

because why does katniss truly still identity peeta as a baker???? they’re in the middle of an actual war, like 50 percent of the people katniss has ever met in her entire life are dead, everyone’s stuck in a tiny hidden basement without a shower and peeta was literally a prisoner of the other side for weeks, if not months. when was the last time that boy baked anything, let alone enough to be called a baker???? 😭😭😭😭

#everlark #thg #hunger games #Katniss Everdeen #peeta mellark #Gale Hawthorne #she’s so funny #yes he bakes that cake for Annie’s wedding but forget that for a moment I’m making my point here #and I’m calling it Annie’s wedding because he didn’t even like Finnick here why would he do something nice for fin fin #plus apparently he had a latent romantic desire for Annie or something #lowkey he’s the one in the book who told Katniss about her and about her games #maybe Peeta actually had a crush on Annie???? he did say to Katniss in the first book he had no issue liking other girls alongside her #text post ✨✍🏻🤎
