challenging all white women to put in even half the effort they spend on fearmongering to other white women about parking lot abductions to instead support MMIWG initiatives if they want to actually make a difference in protecting women

Funniest thing to come out of the Odyssey movie for me personally is seeing posts like "I can't believe Nolan added this aspect to the film that was completely his own original idea!" because apparently people only remember this is a 3000 year old story when they can make a joke about spoilers

Second funniest thing is looking at the OPs of those posts and seeing they're 18 year olds whose main base of knowledge is Epic The Musical

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.

Im rereading Umineko with my gf reading it for the first time, and we are in episode 3 when Ronove first appeared. And she was surprised that a devil would serve a witch, when is usually the opposite. And I told her it depends on the lore I guess. And she said "But even if the devil is serving you, usually they are the ones in power. You never win in a deal with the devil" and then I was thinking what Ronove represents, and was like. Fuck. Yeah this guy serves you but he is the adult with more years than you, deciding what's best for you. Put on this dress for a moment. You never win in a deal with a devil.
