i am done with my graceless heart

Do you think there's something wrong with the way he treats me? Do you?

Okay so the thing about Sailor Moon is that she's basically Naoko Takeuchi's wish-fulfillment fantasy and a love letter to teenage girls everywhere. Usagi, a teenage girl, is the most powerful being in the universe and basically a deity who is capable of resurrecting and rebuilding the universe and everyone in it after it's been destroyed. She can vanquish evil beings and purify people who have been corrupted. She also literally creates a fairytale utopia on Earth with herself as the Goddess-Queen and gives everyone 1000 year lifespans.

And I think that's so beautiful and why Sailor Moon has impacted as many people as it has! In a world where male power fantasies are a dime a dozen, it's so refreshing to see a relatable, lovable young girl as the Chosen One.

And what makes Usagi even better is that she would rather use all of her vast power to heal and protect people. Usagi's greatest strengths- such as her empathy, ability to heal the hearts of others, and capacity to love and forgive- are things that are associated with traditional femininity. She would rather create than destroy.

If you ask me, that's why Sailor Moon is so incredibly OP and beats out male characters like the God-Emperor from Warhammer. Her greatest strength isn't her actual powers, it's her endless compassion, her ability to love, and her mental fortitude. She would rather befriend people and find a solution that works for everyone than fight.

She's the princess of my heart, now and always!

"come again?"

"i learn more from thinking machine. human gender preference. attraction to same gender, means word 'gay.' all eridian same gender." rocky stands straight up. "rocky come out to grace now. all rocky plural gay, statement."

"...wow, that's... rock, i'm not sure it makes much sense to apply human ideas of sexual orientation to a monogendered species."

a long and judgmental pause. then:

In the sunfish’s defense!!!!!

- A job

- Good relationship with father

- Neurotypical brain

- Ability to top

By rolling over and stubbornly feigning sleep if they did.

Their brains are little cause-effect engines. If standing next to your face and yelling until you feed them doesn't actually produce that result, they'll eventually stop doing it. You just have to outlast them.
