Miss Piggy's Response To Misogyny And Fatphobia Is Physical Violence And I Think We Should All Take Something

Me, dragging my ass out of bed to let the cat in from outside where she is currently making it sound like a dozen zombies are clawing at the wall, checking the time: Ladies and gentlemen looks like we have a new record for earliest wake up thanks to this asshole at 2:21 in the fucking mORNIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIING *airhorns*

On the bright side he’s just found one of the spiders I’ve left alive in the bathroom

I know this because he just shrieked so loud I’m sure everyone In the neighborhood thinks someone in this house has just been murdered

My older brother just told me that, basically, since I decided to not work 60 hour weeks on a less-than-minimum-wage-by-a-lot salary, I do Nothing and am Nobody so fuck him and his fucking “I’m working so hard all the time, I need you to make me food and do my chores and give me a pass on my dickishness” bullshit

Everybody in this house is stressed, bitch, dads got a new job that getting COVID could wreck for him, moms sacrificed all her time to an out of the house business making and selling Montessori style works for kids, and my classes, two of which I’m taking at the local college as my first ever college classes, are all behind because of a godamn schedule mishap. None of us are dicks to each other for no reason.

Apologies for the rant, it’s 10:00 at night and I’m bitter and angry and stressed the fuck out

i love you ibuprofen, i love you naproxen. i love you nose spray & cough drops. i love you snacks between meals. i love you naptime & sleeping in & taking a sick day when the body needs rest. i love the avoidance of unnecessary discomfort in its many shapes and forms!

what an act of unspeakable tenderness, to treat your body as a beloved animal and not a machine to grind to the ground

they got hit with that Familial Love +2 Modifier

I said it in the tags of a post but honestly, I feel like I need to make my own post because while we're doing the whole "stop supporting jkr!" thing I need everyone to remember that not only is she blatantly transphobic (and specifically transmisogynistic), but that she and her books are incredibly racist and antisemitic.

Appropriating Indigenous American cultures for her American wizard school. Making all of the bankers in her books hook-nosed goblins. Naming the ONLY East Asian character in the books "Cho Chang" and putting her in the "smart people house". The way that she treats the Patil Twins, the only two other Asians, and the only South Asians in the series. The way that she treats ALL her characters of color. JKR's racism has always been there. People just seem to gloss over it for some reason and to be honest, I'm getting really frustrated and tired of constantly adding that racism is a problem in the notes of these posts. And this is literally just based on Harry Potter! The rest of her stuff surely has even more problems!

I don't want to downplay her transphobia. That's a huge issue that, I, especially as a trans person, cannot emphasize enough! But as a person of color, I feel like I need to remind y'all that it's just the tip of the iceberg.

I think OP of this post I rbed about JKR's racism specifically against Indigenous Americans put it perfectly. This has made it painfully obvious that people are white before they are queer.

It's not that hard just to acknowledge her racism alongside her transphobia. If you're making a post about her remember that she's shitty in so many other ways, and she's always been shitty.

I know this is long but I'm rambling, so...

tl;dr JKR is racist as well as transphobic. Just acknowledge that in your pleas for people to stop supporting her. Please. It's literally so easy. anyways jkr's a piece of shit and I hope she burns in hell!!

- sincerely, a trans poc who's tired of this shit

I have seen Encanto and honestly, same

i haven't seen encanto yet but i have already decided that my favorite characters are the buff lady and the tiny rat man

something about the final climax of thunderbolts not being this huge, explosive battle where the villain is irredeemable and the heroes summon the power of the galaxies to stop them-

but how the final climax was quiet. the darkest shadow, a void falling over new york. it wasn't loud, there wasn't any screaming. it descended upon the city and the people didn't have a chance to react before it swallowed them whole.

how the team's battle was internal, inside their own minds, instead of a huge punchy shoot-off. (especially with this group's skill set, it was unexpected) how they all fought through the shame and guilt and their worst nightmares only to embrace each other anyway. the villain fighting against himself only to realize he is allowed to be loved, despite it all.

how they are all fucked up and have done terrible things but saved the city by holding each other tightly, so tightly that bob realizes the void isn't all he is, and light always comes again.

this movie had so much heart, it made me feel something for a team again, we are so back.

Joanne’s just upset because she’s a little whinging fucker.

Okay hear me out ...

I'm sure this has been said before, but I don't care. While I was working on a little bit of planning and world building for my future TOH/Gravity Falls- Post Timeskip Fic; I noticed something hilarious.

Seems... Uh... a little familiar. Doesn't it?

Okay, maybe I'm just overthinking. Surely, it's impossible that there's a direct connection. I mean, that's like saying all magical amulets that glow and look a little like a bolo tie are the same! They have different powers, clearly. And-

Oh...

If I had a penny for every time a Disney capitalist antagonist clutched their magic glowing gem necklace angrily at the protagonists; I'd have two pennies. Which definitely isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice. (Or more pennies, who knows at this point.)

I hope Odalia received a worse fate than Gideon, though lmao.

Is it too soon to talk about the fact that Nina and Maggie are a metaphor for Crowley and Aziraphale, but NOT in the way they led us to believe throughout S2?

Nina is the tough one, the one that doesn't trust anybody and she's just like Crowley. Maggie is the sweet and kind lady that is just like Aziraphale.

But Nina is stuck in a toxic relationship where the partner exists only in the form of omnipresent cruel texts, gaslight and accusations. She knows that the one she loves doesn't love her back as much, but she justifies every cruelty because she's the "complicated one" and they need only a little bit more time to fix things. She's doing nothing wrong, some things were completely out of her control, and yet she was the one to blame. She's hurt, a victim and yet she doesn't leave her distant cruel partner for Maggie, that is clearly and painfully in love with her. In the end, when she's dumped via text, she understands that she'll need to redefine herself as a person before going back to Maggie (hoping to find her still waiting, because she took so long).

Maggie struggles to pay rent, is extremely lonely and constantly hiding in her empty record shop because she's at her lowest point. She's fallen in love with Nina a long time ago but always watched her from afar. Nina couldn't be interested in such a wreck, she already has a partner and at a certain point she even stated she'll rather stay in her current toxic relationship instead of starting a new one with her! But Maggie also changed during S2, understanding her self-worth and letting herself be free of her fears and insecurities. She'll also wait as long as necessary for Nina to figure out what she needs.

The Nina/Maggie duo is not a metaphor of Crowley/Aziraphale in S2.

The moment you start thinking of Nina as Aziraphale and Maggie as Crowley you realise they're foreshadowing of S3.
