I don't know how to articulate this well, but I really fucking hate the way a lot of thin writers write fat characters. Like how men write women "breasting boobily" there is something so dehumanizing about how fat characters are often written. "He waddled", "he lumbered", the writer of the book I'm reading always mentions this characters "fleshy hand" when he does something with his hand. Like, we already know that he's fat. There is no need to describe everything he does as "doing it fatly".

"Whimsy" is truly a wretched term. What maketh thee so carefree?

Art thou for fucking real

The thing about the "all evil fictional women from myth and legend are misunderstood and in reality their story was retold to make them evil because men were afraid of their power" trend is that it's low-key also misogynistic to assume women are incapable of being terrible people purely due to being women.

being black in any art community is such a strange feeling cause you’ll see just blatant racism being expressed in others art and you have to just casually ignore it, for your sake if anything, colorism being something that’s just fundamentally there in every artist and you deal with it cause it’s not worth it in the end to even think of it too hard let alone even mentioning it, it’s definitely something

Hello nonblack reader of this post, I think you ought to share this one so that you and your peers can actively remind yourselves 1) of how your Black peers feel when you tolerate antiblack racism in your art spaces for entertainment and 2) that we notice it, but don't believe it is secure around enough of you to bring it up 🙏🏾

To be fair imagine you just arrived in 2018 from Victorian England and discovered Take On Me, what are you supposed to do, not blast it loud enough for your family to hear it all the way back in 1876?

the thing about alex ward that definitely adds to his vibe as an actor given how many undead characters he plays but is also impossible to ignore once you've noticed it, is this man blinks on average like once every 40 seconds

you know what I am wondering is what, exactly, anyone from the Sundered Houses is going to do about the Hallowed Round. I mean, first off they're going to have to clock that something happened in the first place; the audience there certainly realized it was a great show but most of them didn't realize that there was anything more than the magic of theater. And then once they do realize something is up it's like, okay, well, what are you going to do about it. I don't think this is really a simple Dispel Magic situation, and House Tachonis (ie, the people most attuned to disturbances in the Tenebral Reaches) has left the city. House Halovar is certainly going to be mad at Hal but I don't know if they're going to be able to do anything about the bridges specifically.
