Something I've noticed in myself but don't terribly want to interrogate much is that, while I don't want anyone to be harsh or aggressive with me, I do like it when I see a character I find attractive be aggressive with someone else.

Two examples:

Commander Sisko in Deep Space Nine pretending to be a terrorist in "Past Tense Part II," barking orders and shoving assholes against a wall to yell at them, "I'm trying to SAVE! YOUR! LIFE!" All this while wearing scruffy street clothes instead of his Starfleet uniform. Hot!!

The day I met my now-former boyfriend, I saw him play Hamlet in a college production. The blocking for the "Get thee to a nunnery" scene involved him pushing Ophelia to the ground and crawling up her body to scream in her ear. The scene was frightening but also... hot!!!

When I dated the guy he never once treated me so aggressively. He's a tender, loving person and I'm glad we got to have a good time together. But seeing him acting like that? Phew, that was very nice.

the thing is like. i get that it's scary and makes people who do desire to get pregnant uncomfortable when we talk about the brutality and violence of pregnancy and the damage that pregnancy can do to your body

but you deserve to give informed consent to that process.

the lies around pregnancy - that it's inherently safe, that it doesn't do you permanent damage, that it's only extremely rare for people to die of pregnancy complications, etc like

all of these are lies constructed so that more people will get pregnant w/o knowing all that

there needs to be more talk about the impact of miscarriages and how common they are, how different abortion processes are and how accessible they are

but also like. talking about how pregnancy fucks your body up should not be taboo

this is a process that permanently changes most people's bodies, and that's even if the pregnancy doesn't do them like. severe illness or injury

and i just think everybody should have a right to KNOW that

bc to live in a society that intentionally obscures and hides facts about a completely optional and dangerous process does so for a reason, and that reason is based in a very sinister ideology that does not value bodily autonomy or informed consent

We need kink at pride because “kink” isn’t just kink. “Kink” is:

That boy wearing jeans that are too tight

Your neighbors and their “friend” that lives with them

Having a beard and wearing a skirt

Wearing any kind of choker

Literally anything else they decide goes against the “norm”, and it can be literally anything. That is why we need kink at pride.

You should not support the WGA strike for only this reason. But I am just saying. If you have ever been pissed off at a studio’s decision to cancel a show or refusal to greenlight a project. If you have ever been mad at a TV executive board or upset about production companies intervening in films and series. One of your most promising opportunities to get back at them in the immediate future would be to find some way to support the writer’s strike.

 Pantheons in fantasy will almost always be something like “fire deity, water deity, light deity, EVIL deity, GREAT MOTHER” while an average bronze age city’s pantheon was s/t like “deity personifying the city, god everyone has to treat as the main one because his city got geopolitically lucky, three or so personifications of main local sources of income, a nearby mountain, half a dozen incoherent minor deities (at least one is the result of some misspelling a name), deified branding iron”

Just so we’re clear, corporate America:

The minute you hire the Pinkertons, you’re immediately the villain. I mean, you’re the villain 99.9% of the time, but no amount of PR and spin can help you once those motherfuckers are involved.

“She had always wanted to know about Christianity - how it began; what it meant, originally. God is love, The kingdom of Heaven is within us, sayings like that she thought, turning over the pages, what did they mean? The actual words were very beautiful. But who said them - when?…It was what a man said under a fig tree, on a hill, she thought. And then another man wrote it down.”

— Virginia Woolf, The Years (via theperfumemaker)
