the idea that restrooms, locker rooms, etc need to be single-sex spaces in order for women to be safe is patriarchy's way of signalling to men & boys that society doesn't expect them to behave themselves around women. it is directly antifeminist. it would be antifeminist even if trans people did not exist. a feminist society would demand that women should be safe in all spaces even when there are men there.

just a reminder to COMPLETELY boycott Eurovision this year; Azerbaijan and Israel, despite committing genocide, are STILL allowed to compete & have NOT been banned. by refusing to ban both countries, Eurovision is profiting off of the genocide of Palestinians and Armenians.

do not listen to the artists. do not pirate or stream the artists' music, and this applies to ALL the artists who are competing and performing this year. do not listen to the songs on ANY platform, do not give them ANY attention.

write to your broadcasters and tell them you REFUSE to watch the channels until they recognise the Armenian and Palestinian genocides & that you find it disgusting how they are allowing Eurovision despite Azerbaijan and Israel's entries.

do NOT give eurovision OR the competing artists ANYTHING but silence.

boycott ALL of eurovision.

Susanna Rustin is a huge TERF too, and a quick search of her name on The Guardian brings up repeated proof.

Alright, to ao3's soon to be arriving Wattpad Refugees, a basic guide to general user culture:

1.) Unlike Wattpads vote system that let's you like each chapter, the ao3 equivalent kudos only allows one per work. Everyone is generally quietly annoyed about this. To engage with each chapter, you're heavily encouraged to comment. Trust me, it makes people's day.

2.) Ao3 has no algorithm. By default it's latest updated work first. You can find things to your taste through searches, filters and tags.

3.) 'No archive warnings apply' and 'user has chosen not to use archive warnings' mean two very different things. No archives warnings means the work is free from any content that could require a warning tag (character death, graphic depictions of violence, non-con, etc). User has chosen not to use archive warnings means it could contain any of the warning content, be it hasn't been explicitly tagged. Treat it like an allergen. No archive warnings apply is allergen free. User has chosen not to use archive warnings, may contain traces or whole chunks of the allergen. If you're likely to have a bad reaction, maybe don't take the risk.

4.) Speaking of warnings, ao3 has very few restrictions on the type of work that's allowed. Whatever your personal thoughts or feelings on that are, thats how the site is. You're likely to run across some dark subject matters and a lot of people are uncomfortable with reading that. You're well within your rights not like these works and have your opinion on whether they should be allowed, but harassing the authors of such works (or any works) is more likely to come back on you than them. Ao3 operates on a strong policy of 'don't like, don't read'. Use the tagging system to your full advantage to only engage with the kind of works you want to see.

We look forward to welcoming you all and seeing the fantastic works you create. Happy writing!

I cannot find it but there was an analysis on here that said smthg along the lines of: in the era the Original Trilogy came out, audiences needed to see heroes that saved the day against all odds. “Despite your hardships, you can succeed.” In the era of the Prequel Trilogy, audiences needed to see what happens when said heroes do not receive the care and love they need and how they can easily become a villain. “Despite your success, you can still fall.” I cant find the post for my LIFE but it was really good and insightful.

It was on my mind while I was watching Andor last night. What kind of stories do we need in this time period right now? Not want, NEED. And I think this might be a big reason why so much recent SW content is controversial. No one can put into words what we need.

Before A New Hope came out, it was mocked and disregarded as some 50¢ film. Once it was released, and then ESB and ROTJ, it was widely praised and became a cult classic damn near overnight. Before The Phantom Menace, people were excited, ravenous for Darth Vader’s backstory. But when it came out, and then AOTC and ROTS, it was widely hated and deemed a monstrosity. That is, until recent audiences, even the same people who initially viewed it as garbage, took another look and deemed it a masterpiece ahead of its time.

And so I look at shows like Andor or The Mandalorian and movies like Rogue One. These are not stories people were itching for, but once they came out, they were quickly regarded as some of Star Wars’ best. Whereas shows like Kenobi seem to only be praised for their nostalgia, and movies like Solo or the entire Sequel Trilogy are deemed horrible at worst and controversial at best, media that was craved until met with cold applause.

For the audiences of this era, what do we want? Now what do we need? I feel like it’s on the tip of everyone’s tongue, but either no one can figure it out or no one will say it.
