Chapter 14
Skye sits next to me and asks me how I'm doing and whatnot. She's really not that bad— kinda sweet even. I decide to give her a chance, even though something in
the way Ash calls her Barbie Doll sets of my radar, but I let it go for now.
That would be the part of you that screams against pitting women against women and Ashlee's internalized misogyny.
I find Evan just watching, his lips set in a thin line, before a small, very small, smile tugs at his lips. I think he mouths, "Congrats." Just as the complete and utter joy that is consuming me starts to change into something else entirely, I am drawn back to four gushing girls. Yep, Geoffrey and Patrick are included in that mix. Geoffrey and Ashlee start to argue about who will be the wedding planner, and all I can do is watch Evan walk away. For something reason, the idea crawls into the forefront of my mind; my best friend is also walking away from me.
Look, I don't have an ounce of sympathy for Evan. He hid his feelings and now he's paying the price.
I'm legit going to scream if Zoey dumps Griffin at the altar for this shitstain of a human who couldn't even get it together to confess to the girl he loved... FOR TEN YEARS.
"It's not like that, Zoey. Seriously, I've been busy," he repeats.
I don't believe him. "I miss you. I miss us," I honestly tell him.
"You have Griffin, what do you need me for?" His voice is detached.
The dude is so butthurt over being friendzoned despite him saying nothing to her for over 10 years that he's literally going to end this friendship.
I would say he's an incel, but he seems intent on having his own rebound relationships with pretty blondes.
"Stop. Just stop. I can't be there for you, Zoey. Not now. Not anymore. You have Griffin, and I have Skye. This friendship of ours won't be the same, isn't the same. You don't need to rely on me anymore.”
That's now how friendships are supposed to work.
Although I honestly think that it's really telling that Evan is calling Zoey's relationship with him as “dependent”. This guy has a raging incel mentality when it comes to Zoey. If he can't have her, then she's a shitty person who doesn't deserve to have friends.
"You love me?"
"I love you."
"You can't."
"Yes I can."
"No, you can't. Not today. Not now. I've waited so long to hear you say those words.”
[…]
"Zoey…"
"Evan, just go."
GOOD.
In a flash, Evan's hand snakes up my back and cradles my head. He leans in, and his lips hover over mine. And then he kisses me. His warm, plump lips mold to mine—fitting perfectly, as if they were meant to fit together.
Right. So he disrespects her wishes to leave and decides to sexually assault her.
"Evan, I…I…I don't…you need to leave."
GOOD. FILE A FUCKING RESTRAINING ORDER AGAINST THAT JERK.
"Okay then, it's time to get you married." And with that, we leave the bridal suite behind.
Chapter 14 summary: Some time passes, and Evan begins to pull away from Zoey more and more. She's frustrated and hurt by it, and continues to be blind about his feelings for her. Ashlee makes it way worse by pointedly asking Zoey about how she'd slept with Griffin in front of Evan.
One day, everybody is at a baseball game, including Evan's latest blonde bimbo girlfriend, Skye. (She isn't important.) Griffin comes back from the concession stand and pops the question. Everybody is excited, but Evan just leaves.
As Zoey plans her wedding, Evan always has some excuse not to be around her. Except Zoey knows that he's not that busy if he can meet up with Ashlee and his brother from time to time. She goes to his work and calls him out before she asks him to be her man of honor (male “maid of honor”). He refuses, and says he's not going to her wedding at all.
Later, at the actual wedding, as Zoey is getting ready before the ceremony, Evan comes in and confesses his love. Zoey rejects him over and over. He insists and kisses her, but she tells him to get the fuck out.
"So, your number?" My ears register his words.
I look down, and in my hand is a cell phone. When I look up at him, he
smiles and nods toward the phone. Griffin.
YO WHAT THE FUCK. LITERALLY NONE OF IT WAS REAL?!
A tissue is passed to me a couple of times, especially when I relive Evan walking out of the bridal suite—walking out on me.
This girl needs serious mental help if she's experiencing vivid hallucinations that are impacting her that deeply.
I finally have found that elusive four letter word, and it's wrapped around me. And I'm never letting it go.
Chapter 15 summary: THE ENTIRE FUCKING THING WAS THE ON-SET OF A GODDAMNED SCHIZOPHRENIC DISORDER IN ZOEY OR SOME GODDAMNED SHIT. LITERALLY NOTHING WAS REAL. She comes back to herself and flips the fuck out. This goes on for way too long, with Patrick, Geoffrey, and Ashlee just trying to get her to calm down. Eventually, they convince her to confess her feelings to Evan, and that goes on for way too long.
Zoey later goes over to his apartment and they confess their feelings. At this point, I literally don't care. They could have turned into hippos and I wouldn't give a shit. We wasted an entire fucking book only for it to be that ending.
You know what, I take it back. Zoey leaving Griffin at the altar seems better in comparison to this shit.  
Epilogue
He tenderly kisses my neck. I snuggle into him and can't help but smile. It's funny how history has a habit of repeating itself.
Epilogue summary: Following that fucking terrible ending, I literally do not give a shit about the actual happy ending. 16 years later, they're still in love. Zoey watches as her own daughter goes through the same kind of emotional turmoil she went through with Evan. Zoey and Evan are like “young love”.

Actually I think we should talk about how incredibly fucked up it is for sapphic women to say shit like "I'm no better than a straight man 😔" when attracted to a woman in a way that isn't 100% pure and wholesome, or act like men's attraction to women is inherently dirty, predatory, or objectifying.

At some point, I think people have to contend with the fact that misgendering isn't a completely a universally agreed upon concept in the specific sense that misgendering can be very personal.
What may be misgendering to you will not be to other trans people - even if they have the same gender as you. You may be misgendered if somebody used the wrong label to describe you (e.g., somebody calling you "girl," even if it is slang), but that does not mean that that will apply to everybody.
It's important to recognize this because so often, people will say things like, "you can't use this label/phrase/term for any trans person who is a [gender]! And if any trans person who is a [gender] uses those labels/phrases/terms, they're wrong and bad!" and that is simply too broad a generalization.
It's fine to be uncomfortable with certain things like this. It is fine if you don't want to be misgendered, and indeed, I share in that sentiment. However, that does not mean that your comforts and discomforts apply to all trans people or all trans people who share your gender. There's a difference in that, I think.

"Aegon and Team Green didn't need to take the throne, there was no need to, it's not like their survival depended on it because all the lords would've accepted Rhaenyra as heir! They promised her and her father that they would!"
Have y'all seen how women are treated in ASOIAF? The general view is that they're property, decoration, and/or pleasure/heir makers. You really think people in Westeros actually view Rhaenyra any differently just because she's a Targaryen and the last king said so? Add to this the scandals of the brothel sighting, killing Laenor, marrying Daemon, and trying to pass three obvious bastard children as legitimate heirs? Obviously it's the sexism it's the misogyny it's a bad thing, but that's the world of ASOIAF. I would encourage anyone who thinks that women of this world aren't treated abhorrently to read the series. Even if one of the lords felt some type of way about Rhaenyra sitting the Iron Throne for whatever reason they would push for someone with an alternate claim, and that someone else would be her brother. To stop people from rallying to other claimants, Rhaenyra would have to make it so there are no other claimants.

Hello, I want to play a game.
As you can see, you are in a department store section for women's pants. Your task is to find one pair of pants that fit you.
Given that you are 5' 9", you will have to sort through all of the medium length pants to find longs. Also, you must make sure those longs are in your size. You should know that none of these pants are sized with numbers. Have fun figuring out whether you are a medium or extra large, as each brand has different sizing systems.
If you do not complete the task in 1 hour, you must go to tomorrow's job interview wearing that one nice dress you have from college that's two sizes too small. Your time begins now. Good luck.

perhaps a controversial opinion and like. no hate to anyone who likes femsamdean because i like it too but. there is some distinct element of samdean that relies on them being dudes. like….. if they were girls (esp afab girls) do u know how much they would have to be doing to warrant the same “why are they so close… that’s weird” reaction?? the amount of casual affection that girls/girl passing ppl can get away with is insane compared to guys that look like sam&dean. they could be walking about arms linked, kissing each other on the cheek and saying cute nicknames and ppl wouldn’t find it Suspicious. there’s something so jarring (esp in smalltown, usa) about seeing two giant muscly Dudes be touchy with each other. if hunters heard that there were 2 sisters that were badass hunters and their relationship was weirdly close they’d be falling over each other to beg for a threesome. but no. sam and dean are huge and scary and could crush any hunter with one hand. AND they make lovey eyes at each other and sit way too close and live together in their 30s. and no one can say a damn thing about it even tho it’s fucking WEIRD. and that’s what makes it so GOOD. but if they’re girls that part is so diminished. don’t even get me started on how the dynamic with john would be jfc

Chapter 6
High School Sophomore Year, first day…
Oh good, just what I wanted to read about. /ALL THE GODDAMNED SARCASM
I am able to drive to school, since I just turned sixteen and I don’t have to depend on the bus or my dad driving me—the advantages of starting kindergarten a year
later than everyone else.
[image description: a large, black circle on a white background. It says “feel free to pepper in some periods into that sentence”]
The blonde girl standing next to him stifles a giggle when he leans in and whispers in her ear.
Oh my God. He's flirting with her right in the middle of class. What a jerk! Erica's right.
I'm failing to see how flirting somehow equates him being a “jerk”.
Evan smiles and nods his head. He then turns his attention back to Mr. Williams who has started to go over the syllabus. I do the same, and I can't help but think that – just maybe – Erica might be wrong.
Chapter 6 summary: Despite the fact that this story is only 15 chapters long, and considering how the first five chapters were taken up by the stupid Halloween party, the narration has decided to give us these morons in high school. Although... why am I complaining? High school fits their mentality.
Anyway, too much time is spent with Zoey thinking about how she moved from Michigan last year, and how she was the new girl. It's a new school year, and she's not excited at all.
In biology class, she's hoping to be partners with her BFF, Erica. But the teacher assigns them seats, and Zoey is partnered with some guy named Evan, that Erica says that school rumors are that he's a jerk. Zoey isn't happy with that.
Chapter 7
One time, in Michigan, my friend, Claire set me up on a blind date with one of her boyfriend's friends. She couldn't tell me much about him except he was a nice guy. The whole night I had to hear about his Star Wars obsession. He even tried to show me his light saber—an actual light saber used in the movie. Plus he had to use his inhaler about a half a dozen times.
I get that it's annoying being out with somebody who has no social graces. But damn girl, don't hate somebody simply because they have a medical condition.
She sounds like a shallow bitch.
My heart loses its way in the rain that now pelts against the cafeteria windows.
Forever only friends.
Chapter 7 summary: We're now halfway through the school year. Erica has been pulling away emotionally from Zoey, which is natural, but it still sucks when you realize what's happening, and can't do anything about it. Zoey has developed a huge crush on Evan.
In science class, they're given busy work to draw various animals in whatever scientific way. Evan gushes over how good Zoey's drawings are, and how he's shit at it. In this story's usual way, this takes up too much time without actually going anywhere.
At lunch, another of Zoey's friends asks if she's in a relationship with Evan. When Zoey insists that she and Evan are just friends, only friends, the other girl eagerly asks if Zoey would mind if she took a shot at asking Evan out. “Why would I when we're not in a relationship?”
I don't even have words for this at this point. Like the girl is so dumb and afraid of starting something that she's literally been making herself miserable for more than a decade.

suicide cw
look i have been in this area before mentally. it sucks and i wouldn’t wish this on anyone. but, and this is going to sound callous, but i don’t feel any sympathy for james somerton. even if i hope he’s like. not dead. But thats all the amount of goodwill im willing to give him. The more i think about this really, the more angry i am. 
ngl this entire situation is another example of how white people weaponize their mental illness to avoid consequences. Im seeing it in real time.
this man has a continuous habit of using self-harm as a get-out-of-jail-for-free card. in both of his apologies, he has worded his supposed attempts in ways that were clearly meant to guilt people who displayed his plagiarism and overall horrendous history of racism and misogyny. i say supposed because, while i’m not saying those are lies and this would he such a fucked up thing to lie about that i don’t want to think he has, unfortunately, it’s been proven again and again that his word can’t be trusted, as he’s known to lie to try get out of consequences. Hes a proven liar. him lying about this is actually the best case scenario, because no one should go through this entire situation, wouldnt wish this on anyone, but you can only do this so often before people stop sympathizing with you. is this callous? Yeah, but like. I’m actually fucking angry he cant straight up take no as an answer. that this is how he reacts realizing he cant be one of the Cool Kidz™️ on youtube anymore. he acts like he DESERVES a career, like its not a privilege hes lost due to his own actions.
He lied about apologizing and forgiving people, he lied about giving the money to hbomberguy to give to ppl he ripped off (yknow, instead of doing it himself), he lied about the jessie gender situation and rewrote the narrative to make it so he isnt the bad guy, and hes the victim all along actually!
you can’t tell me that supposed last message of his isn’t meant to be a 13 reasons why esq attempt to deflect the blame “look i’m going to kill myself and it’s all YOUR PEOPLES FAULT for not letting me achieve my DREAM of being filmmaker IN PEACE!!! I just wanted Nick’s (the guy who I have thrown under the bus again and again) portfolio up!! Im just being a good friend dont you all FEEL BAD” he refuses to take ANY ACCOUNTABILITY of any of his actions and he IS STILL trying to shove the blame over to other people again.
it’s also pretty ironic people are like “uhhh well hbomber’s fans harassed him!!!” like hbomber outright told people NOT to HARASS JAMES!!! ALSO acting as if james doesn’t have a very real documented history of STRAIGHT UP sending his fans to harass and threaten smaller creators, more notably women, trans, and bipoc creators. especially after he’s stolen typically very personal anecdotes so he could profit from them. so why can he do it but the second people are like “hey this guys an actual piece of shit.” and he can’t handle it suddenly people are trying to white knight his shit? like no he doesn’t get that. he doesn’t get that at all just because he couldn’t handle the consequences of his actions. 
what? were supposed to stay quiet about a man profiting off of other minorities because he wanted to be the spokesman for all gay people? people tried to solve this on a smaller, more private scales for YEARS and he kept doing it. it was clear that the giant public video was the ONLY way to get people to notice. HE WOULDVE GOTTEN AWAY WITH STEALING 87 FUCKING THOUSANDS WORTH OF DOLLARS. HE CANT HANDLE THE FACT HE CANT GET AWAY WITH IT. 
am i supposed to feel bad for the guy who basically threatened a trans woman with the police? i don’t care what anyone says, it’s so fucking obvious that he threatened jessie by implying he was getting the police involved in their conflict. what am i supposed to act like that didn’t happen? are we supposed to pretend like he didn’t glorify nazi’s and outright said that gay people made up a good chunk of the nazis? That he didnt say america joined ww2 bc they were jealous of the NAZIS. WHAT WOULD POSSESS YOU TO FUCKING SAY THAT. but then? He gives women (not even women most of the time, he misgenders nonbinary ppl constantly) shit for writing mlm. are we supposed to act like he doesn’t straight-up sees himself superior and better than people of color and steals their works to put himself on a pedestal? Are we supposed to act like he didnt spit on our elders by saying “only the boring gays survived aids” like man! Fuck you! He BLANTANTLY MAKES UP HISTORY TO PUT HIMSELF ON A PEDESTAL!! HE ACTIVELY TRIED TO REWRITE LGBT HISTORY TO SUIT HIS FUCKED UP NARRATIVES!
yes this sucks ! no one deserves this but no one should be making him a martyr. Thats what he fucking WANTS! He wants to be immortalized as a victim!! (again, supposedly, it was reported hes alive but its not confirmed).
The shit he got isnt near the amount of fucking callous behavior hes done again and again. Again, to drill this point, EVEN IF HE DIDNT CALL THE POLICE HE THREATENED A TRANS WOMAN INTO THINKING HE DID!!! The fact he tried to use a head injury to justify years of the outright ghoulish shit fucking astounds me. Why the fuck did anyone in his life thought it was a good idea to let him TRY to come back. in the end, he had options. he didn’t need to try to make a comeback. HE DIDNT NEED TO FUCKING LIE OR IGNORE THE SHIT HE WAS CALLED OUT ON the reality is, he wanted to come back thinking he could shove it under the rug, was told that no dude, you’re not allowed to be a youtuber anymore. you’re done. you need to move on and went full nuclear. it’s not on anyone’s hands but his own. HES BEEN DOING THIS TO HIMSELF!! But nah man we cant call his shit out bc hell may or may not kill himself. Fuck the other minorities who have the same issues but worse and sometimes BECAUSE of him. This is going to SUCKKKK so bad when other ppl, specifically white gays, are going to weaponize this shit to get away with their stuff.
#warning: do not read this post if you want me to be nice to james somerton. i am extremely mean in this post.#before anyone accuses me of shit i legit never contacted him myself or anyone involved. i am someone who witnessed this behavior repeatedly#again. i hope hes alive and well. the fact is him lying about this WOULD BE THE IDEAL SITUATION. BC NO ONE SHOULD GO THROUGH THAT. but.#he HAS to forever be the victim in his eyes. attempting doesnt automatically mean youre free of sin.#its just terrible to see that regardless whether or not he did do it#its very clear his attempts to run away from his consequences are working on some people#we need to acknowledge that if your shitty ex friend can weaponize a threat to kill themselves#so can this internet person after being called out for horrendous shit#like what was the alterative? what were people supposed to fucking do? be nice about it?#yeah as if poc and trans women arent historically given shit for being 'too mean' about wanting justice.#this isnt just the plagiarism this is the fact a white dude has been parading himself as THE speaker for the gays(tm) but has been using hi#gayness to shield himself from his misogyny racism transphobia and antisemitism#its very clear regardless this means that ppl r going to side with him and then give him benefit of doubt#if you cant handle the heat stay out of the fucking kitchen dude. this is the consequences of your fucking actions.#hes a disgusting person who cant handle being told no so hes going to drag everyone down with him#like. idk this entire situation is frustrating to me.#its also frustrating ppl trying to be moral abt it like 'see! i knew this was bad all along!' no you didnt. shut it.#for the record im like mainly talking abt twit watching those spineless uwu cutesy ppl basically saying hes done noting wrong#oh and also alt righters who are clearly weaponinizing this where u know they wouldnt give a shit if a right ytber did this.#james somerton#idk might delete this later its just. ugh...

“Trans men and mascs don’t get a special word because they aren’t oppressed specifically as men, since as men they reap benefits of patriarchy, because if there are two resumes on the table and one has the name Dave and the other Susan, and both happen to be trans, Dave will be hired over Susan, regardless of how his coworkers see his gender.”
a) You really think every transmasc has equal access to changing their name? You think every transmasc wants to take a name that is normative? If I apply for a job right now, it would still have to be under my legal name, which is the one my parents assigned me along with the gender I shed. It’s pretty cis-normatively female. Even if I changed my name, Enviri is not a name that would get me sorted into a pile with Daves and Joes.
b) You’re acting like there isn’t an interview process, where if you don’t pass, you definitely won’t be sorted into the Dave pile if your name is Dave but you can’t physically transition and so don’t pass as cis.
These sorts of statements rely on assuming that all transmascs are passing and stealth, and so gender-conforming. Or that society is actually good at viewing trans people as our actual gender if we aren’t those things.
Denying transmascs language based on the absolute most privileged of us that you can imagine does absolutely nothing. I’ve not gained an ounce of male privilege as a non-passing, GNC transmasc because it’s society that grants privilege, and society is still extremely hostile to ALL trans people, AND men who don’t conform ESPECIALLY if they’re trans and had been stealth, and society will still at this point remove all that privilege if trans status is known.
It’s petty as fuck to make up reasons to take down a word and conversation when it all comes back around to, “oh well, you don’t get a word because, uhm, we don’t think you should have one because it makes us feel less special about having our own word.” Fuck off.

this might just be the pessimism talking but there are times when I feel the body positive movement is straight up Over. even stuff from now that’s meant to be body positive, or is packaged in that way, is of a lower caliber. like it feels like it’s gotten worse.

hate how it's practically impossible to find anti sw*fties on here that aren't misogynistic.
"she purposely stays apolitical to cater to a conservative audience and uses activism as a trend"
yeah you're right-
"also she's an ugly bitch who should be crucified because she dated john mayer when she was 19"
uh huh. cool. so being sexist is fine if its towards someone you dont like. get it
EDIT: hey please stop reblogging if you're just gonna shit on her music. you're missing the entire point of the post. her music is literally whatever it is up to personal preference why do you care so much. the post is about people making valid criticism of sw*ft while being misogynistic, which takes away from any argument you may have had. now you're doing it with her music, focusing on that instead of her actions.
also, acting like you have to hate her music to criticize her is an absolutely useless way to try to explain her actions to swifties since it just creates an us vs them mentality. and if your goal isn't to educate, then why the fuck are you even bringing up your points?
