look out for yourself

a lot of people talk about the top being bad at fucking which is awesome but there's not enough discussion about the bottom being bad at getting fucked

your weird obsession with having a fully formed white picket fence found family who all speak like they've inhaled their therapist who you subconsciously want to be adopted into is ruining your ability to interact with the source material

and for my favorite character: failed suicide attempt and erectile dysfunction

This is the Carrie Fisher post of body positivity reblog for a chocolate bar from her fridge

oh yeah? well my oc could handle that event worse than your oc

my oc would develop suicidal tendencies before yours

that is actually my main principle of explicit fic is that the personalities stay On during sex.

it is really kind of a plothole that there was never a scene in the original star wars where han goes to spudio 54 swaggering around saying he's definitely gonna be let in and then they immediately reject him because he hasn't showered for the past three days and also he owes everyone money. luke gets let in because based on his general vibe and demeanor they think he's gonna be a pass around party bottom but this is his first night on coruscant and he's never seen so many people in one space before and he immediately has a panic attack leaves and never comes back. leia gets in immediately bc she’s a beloved celebrity. she dances the night away and does cocaine in the bathroom because she fucking deserves it

and my take today is that framing misogynistic writing as an "inability to write female characters" subconsciously takes away most of the blame, implying that women are an alien creature compared to men and that it is no fault of the writer because it's out of their skill set. it's not an inability, not a lack of expertise, it's the simple refusal to consider women as individual people and give them the same depth and grace that comes easily to the writer when they write male characters. it's not that christopher nolan, stephen king, james cameron (and frankly anyone using the argument, both professional and hobbyist; yes, that includes fanfic writers) etc can't write women, it's that they just won't. at that point in time it is a conscious decision driven by the laziness to unpack their misogynistic biases, and should be addressed as such

(bashfully) so ive been growing little men in tubes...
