I fear a lot of people learned to take good care of library books as children and instead of internalizing "leave shared community items as you found them as much as possible, because other people will use them too" they internalized "printing and binding a book imbues it with sacred energy and if you dog-ear a mass-market paperback you're desecrating the entire concept of written language"

I do wonder sometimes if people would be more sympathetic to Tuon if she had been a man, and more interested in Mat and Tuon as a couple of their genders had been reversed.
I say this because of the popularity of things like dark romance and dark male leads. Characters and relationships that do follow Mat and Tuon’s romance and characterization pretty closely. That and I wonder how things would of changed if she had been white, I’ve seen people who love Lanfer but hate Tuon like they aren’t the same character in a different font.
Just some things I’ve been thinking about. I have some pretty high hopes for the show fandoms response to her however given their reactions to Lanfer and Liandrin, especially Liandrin
People would be more interested in Tuon if she wasn’t an insane hypocrite who thought an entire people group should be enslaved forever, a view that she did not change on at any point during the series.
It simply isn’t very interesting to have a character with such blatantly evil views that everyone knows are awful and then no one actually bothers trying to change those views in any way. If we were supposed to be sympathetic, RJ should have given her a character arc that’s longer than a point.
I appreciate The Empire Strikes Back for being the only time I can think of when a character just shot their enemy as soon as they saw them without pausing or having a dramatic moment beforehand.
leia organa truly has one of the best bait-and-switch character introductions of all time because when you meet her she's this brave, stoic picture of elegance and justice and always knows just what to say to vader and tarkin and is clad in white like an angel and is this perfect two-dimensional archetype of pureness of heart. and then approximately half an hour later into the film she meets luke and han and she IMMEDIATELY shows her true colors as a sarcastic, bitchy control freak with a massive impulsive streak and a deep mine of hyperspecific insults. 10/10 character design i'm obsessed with her
"Does the author respect women" is a third distinct question from either of the other two.

apparently i’m a millennial woman
I mean, yeah, valid! but but but I also want to add on the fact that lotr AGGRESSIVELY rejects the “grimdark” and “gritty” settings that is so prevalent in fantasy (and also in general) right now, because I physically can not shut up about it
It is hope and love and compassion that saves each character individually, and because of that, the world. Frodo fails in the end, but his acts of compassion from earlier in the story save the day. And even as the world is saved, it is acknowledged that Frodo failed—without judgement, without blame. He fails, and he is still loved.
And like what can happen in the real world, he is still irrevocably changed by his trauma. But there is still hope—he has to leave, but he leaves with the promise of healing, and the promise that his ever-faithful Sam will follow.
Aragorn, Boromir, Frodo, Sam; each and every one of the characters are driven by their love of the people around them and their hope for the future. They cling to that love and hope throughout their trials, and that bears them through.
Of course people are watching it for comfort!!!! Lotr is eternally consistent in its promise, which Sam articulates so clearly in The Two Towers: “Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines, it’ll shine out the clearer.”
Things are dark and awful and terrible, but it will not be that way forever. That is the promise of LOTR. A promise of hope, and the reminder that it is love and compassion—for our friends, for our families, for the strangers we’ve never even met—that will save us in the end.
never give up on your dreams. Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau are dating. that's not a dream come true for either of them or any of us, but it does prove that things you cannot even fathom of happen every single day. So, why not your hopes and dreams?
some royal jewels were stolen from the louvre which is unfortunate for historical reasons but you gotta appreciate a classic crime. so many crimes are online these days it’s nice to see heist culture is still alive
Wintrow your pirate dad is a rapist and you're being too chill about it. Boy where's your rage? How did you just brush that fact aside?

gen z has to reckon with its radicalization problem. you are not a morally pure and superior generation of youth come to save the world, your men and boys are radicalized at an unprecedented level and you ignore it because it’s too hard to address but you have to. these boys are in your classes, they date your friends, you know them and you cannot continue to pretend this is an “old white guy” problem
girls are contributing, too. the coquette aesthetic, the “i don’t want to girlboss i want a man to pay my bills”, girlmath girljob girlmoney. it’s a joke, it’s clothes, it’s whatever, i get it but it is driving a mentality of traditional gender roles and you know you’re joking but your boyfriend doesn’t. your kid brother doesn’t. you have to stop this shit it is a contributing factor
i love how Gandalf invested in Hobbits in year one and has been pushing them ever since. Thorin, i hear you need help with a breaking and entering. Can I recommend one of these little cunts? Silent as fuck, trust me. Elrond my dude i know you're skeptical but these four chucklefucks just transported a weapon of mass destruction all the way here. Theoden, you've gotta get yourself a hobbit man, I've got a spare one here. Denathor you big prick, take a hobbit - literally this is the bottom of the range but listen to him sing. Beautiful little bastard.
If I trust that you'll respect my boundaries when I need to say "No.", then you can ask for nearly anything you need or want. I may not be able to say "Yes.", but I never want you to feel like you can't ask.
rape culture isn’t just mason greenwood playing football and living life with no consequences for his actions.
it’s hojlund, rashford, lingard, curtis jones, frimpong, ansu fati, madueke, eze, fofana, yunus musah, dembele, jamie bynoe-gittens, andreas pereira and more gladly liking & commenting on his posts and supporting him publicly knowing full well what he has done. it’s players- pereira, dembele, fati, eze, etc who have never played with him, likely never even met him before the audio came out, who support him BECAUSE of his actions, not in spite of it.
if you claim to be a man who loves his wife/girlfriend/romantic partner as i’ve seen nearly all the above players do, and then you go and support a rapist and an abuser, you don’t deserve to look the women in your life in the eye. not because it’s your responsibility to them to be a good person, but because it’s your responsibility period.

Look.
I have made you a chart. A very simple chart.
People say "You have to draw the line somewhere, and Biden has crossed it-" and my response is "Trump has crossed way more lines than Biden".
These categories are based off of actual policy enacted by both of these men while they were in office.
If the ONLY LINE YOU CARE ABOUT is line 12, you have an incredible amount of privilege, AND YOU DO NOT CARE ABOUT PALESTINIANS. You obviously have nothing to fear from a Trump presidency, and you do not give a fuck if a ceasefire actually occurs. You are obviously fine if your queer, disabled, and marginalized loved ones are hurt. You clearly don't care about the status of American democracy, which Trump has openly stated he plans to destroy on day 1 he is in office.
if you want to vote for a third party, what you are going to do is vote for biden in november 2024 and then as soon as that’s done, start trying to get ranked choice voting in your state
we will ALWAYS be a two party system until voting reform happens, and voting reform won’t happen if project 2025 happens.
suck it up and vote biden, then put the next four years to good use
