I still consider it a crime that the Gerudo sage of the past had NOTHING to say about Ganondorf in TotK. They could have grown up together. They could have trained against each other. They could have been siblings, friends, lovers, or just classmates. Is she sad or angry at him for attacking Rauru? Did she like him as king before he attacked Rauru? Is she jealous that he gets to rule the Gerudo and not her? How does she feel about the other Gerudo joining him over her? So much missed potential.
This is all true. So much missed potential. The same goes for Riju.
The same goes for all of the Gerudo, especially given that anyone can see the giant geoglyph of Ganondorf in the Gerudo Highlands from the walls of the city. A main theme of the development of the Gerudo in Tears of the Kingdom seems to be the reconsideration of their rule not to allow men into Gerudo Town, which stems from "a long-held belief that men only bring disaster." The revelation that the Eighth Heroine was a man in Rotana's "Heroines' Secret" quest could have been used to make a strong thematic statement in this regard, as could the stories of several other NPCs in and around Gerudo Town. Unfortunately, since no one is allowed to acknowledge or discuss the existence of Ganondorf or the origin of the prohibition against men, all of these narrative threads are left hanging.
I understand that a lot of the writing in Tears of the Kingdom was outsourced, and the contracted writers were almost certainly given the directive not to include anything that might inform or contradict series lore. For most of the NPCs in Hyrule, this is fine. In fact, I'd say it's actually quite lovely to be able to see all sorts of small stories that have nothing to do with magical princesses or ancient kings. For the Gerudo in particular, though, the inability of characters to talk about a major element of their history and culture is extremely awkward and frustrating.

the concept of the slur replacement project feels a bit like historical revisionism? especially considering how much i see people recommend it as the recommended way of reading homestuck. it's sanitizing down the more unpalatable bits of homestuck to make it seem more friendly and wholesome (which seems incredibly common among homestuck fans in general, especially among those who like to pretend the epilogues never happened, which is a whole other discussion i won't get into rn), and that just feels weird. not to mention the execution of it is very poor in general. the "future arachnids grip" joke is funny actually, and the change they made to make it "later arachnids grip" not only makes it a weaker joke (as it was initially a play on how the concept of gayness isn't really a thing to trolls), but also introduces an inconsistency in the writing, as it only does this change for vriska, drawing more attention to it. there's also a fucking... random bit where iirc for one line they replace a mention of bill cosby with... gnomeo and juliet? i think? which is not only a baffling decision that they don't, but is technically introducing an anachronism because that movie didn't come out until 2011. the writing they used to replace things in general just doesn't feel very homestuck-y, and it always feels clunky and awkward.

My actual most controversial Gale headcanon is that his “practiced tongue” line is an overestimation of his skills. He learns fast, and he’s very enthusiastic, plus he’s got a number of wizard tricks up his sleeve—but his tongue game alone? It takes a while for him to really get the hang of it again.
YES! YES ME TOOOOO I think he's just very full of himself lmao. I do think he learns quickly but I definitely don't think he's the best pussyeater in that party. In a party with Minthara, Lae'zel and Halsin??? Madness.

I think most Melusines would find Abyss Heralds/Lectors to be peak conventional beauty and be attracted to them the same way Chlothar Alberich did, and in fact Sigewinne's romantic interest in Wrio is considered unconventional among Melusines the same way some people are confused about certain fetishes. Thoughts?
My friend you are so correct, I can't believe it took this ask for me to see the obvious. If Elynas found Jakob's new Iniquitous Baptist form to be, I quote, "So tall and strong!", then of course his daughters would have similar tastes. We already know they find Riftwolves to be cute dogs, so no doubt Heralds, Lectors and the like are the height of attractiveness to them.
To them humans are a race they want to befriend, but not one they find particularly attractive (the opposite is true in the exact same way). It doesn't mean they're opposed to it - they're lower on the scale of what they find attractive, but not outside of it entirely. Still, Sigewinne's choice is definitely unconventional, that's the best word for it. Just like Wriothesley finding mélusines, in all their off-putting eldritch glory, attractive, is unconventional to other humans.
(That said, there's exactly one party who's overjoyed by this development, and that's Elynas. He could never coexist with humans the way he wished back when he was alive, so for his daughters to not only be able to achieve that, but also truly love humans and be loved in return... What a beautiful thing!)

So, The Onion is NOT fucking pulling any punches right now, and I am HERE for it. Like... FUCK.
"For example, instead of issuing a full-throated denunciation of the violent attacks by Hamas that have left over 1,300 Israelis dead, one dying woman holding her 6-year-old son who had just been killed in a bombing is said to have doubled down by telling her child she loved him. According to reports, such barbarism on the part of Palestinians was on full display across the Gaza Strip, where many men of fighting age could not muster a single world of reproof for Hamas’ actions while they coughed up blood. In war-ravaged Gaza City, a dying reporter was heard blatantly begging for help instead of labeling Hamas a terrorist organization. "

I'm so so so incredibly devastated that some people think people only like Tavros because it's "moral". For whatever reason, it is so utterly out of the realm of possibility it's his themes (believing in oneself, fledging, becoming better once extricrating oneself from harmful people) or personality (he's unsure of himself and still trying to find footing in being confident, he's unintentionally funny, etc) that draw people to him. I don't mind the comments saying he's annoying because sure, I can definitely see that, but boring isn't the right word.
Personally, I'm just upset they keep putting their grievances about Tavros in the tag. Really? What was your purpose in doing so? Are you on an ultimate quest to piss off the Tavros fans????????????

Okay so that ask about hiding the bulges—I am so into the Ernst one. Like poor man is just losing his mind around you, just barely able to control himself, horrified and appalled at his own body when he gets an erect ion while you’re in confession, trying to get you to leave so he can go take care of it and hate himself for it.
You giving him a hug that’s just a smidge too long, and him in a panic trying to part from you before you feel him prodding you. Ashamedly jerking himself in the bathroom to try and get rid of it before he has to stand in front of a bunch of people.
And one day you accidentally walk in on him masturbating RIGHT as he’s groaning your name with his eyes closed. And you’re shell shocked and frozen in place, and only turn to run when he opens his eyes and sees you there and is horrified.
Yes to everything 😤👌
We all love a physically repressed Ernst Toller and the self hatred he would go through while jerking off while thinking of you.
Poor man deserves a hug 🥺 And a blowjob
