one thing that really annoys me (potentially enough to drop the whole story over it) is when someone creates a sci-fi/fantasy culture that's matriarchal, and then goes and gives a 'reason' for the matriarchy. like oooh the women can do [x magic] or have psychic powers, and men don't, so they're stronger! makes it seem like patriarchy is the Natural State Of The World written into our biology, and therefore upsetting it should mean women have some inherent superiority this time (instead of men, like they do in real life, apparently). 😐 ok well i don't think that's true.

it would be awesome if we had fictional matriarchies that are built on supposed "inherent" gender roles that are actually quite obviously bullshit when you take 2 seconds to think about it. you know. to mirror our real world patriarchy.

Excellent resource if you're new to sewing and want to start doing some clothing repair!

Professional seamstress here, who has taught intro to sewing many times, saying: this guide is excellent!

the whole "insulting someone based on their appearance is bad because it could indirectly hurt people you like who share that feature" is a good start for unlearning body shaming but i do think we need to go further and remind people that even if there was some physical trait that was magically 10000% exclusive to conservatives and creeps and nobody else ever had it, we still shouldnt be insulting them based on that. because the problem with them is not their appearance its their ideology and actions. by insulting their appearance you arent just indirectly insulting others who look like that, youre literally not making the correct point. stay on topic ya know.

hey kitten. daddy needs to talk to you. your kink blog is great, but you are not highlighting the words correctly. kitten. stop highlighting. this is shit. did you seriously highlight that period. kitten.

You’d think that once you finally get long term access to a cat and your yearning to have cat access is fulfilled that you’d become slightly less obsessed with seeing people’s cats but no if anything it gets worse
