lol our society is so structured on binaries that people think cats are the opposite of dogs
we also regard dogs as “masculine” and cats as “feminine” to the point that it’s “weird” for men to love cats, women and gay men are stereotyped as liking cats, and creepiest of all, cats are stereotyped as “sexy” animals
Im 100% grossed out by this
this fits into my confusion as to why it’s perfectly acceptable to hate cats but blasphemy to hate dogs
That last comment just fucked me up
“anything is empowering if a woman chooses to do it” is the possibly the worst and most damaging concept i’ve ever been exposed to
Agree, this was a bad set up to my second sexual encounter with a woman, a real bad one.
Women can still be misogynistic FYI
“almost every woman i have ever met has a secret belief that she is just on the edge of madness, that there is some deep, crazy part within her, that she must be on guard constantly against ‘losing control’ — of her temper, of her appetite, of her sexuality, of her feelings, of her ambition, of her secret fantasies, of her mind”
— Elana Dykewomon “Notes for a Magazine"
a big beautiful gay man i can only assume my gay brothers would call a bear occasionally shops at my work and i lose my mind every time i see him because every time i see him he’s wearing a different flamboyant shirt and every time i see one of those ridiculous patterned shirts I Have A Moment because i, a big beautiful butch lesbian, so far own EVERY SINGLE ONE OF HIS RIDICULOUS SHIRTS TOO FFFJGJJ
this is true mlm and wlw solidarity.

Why You Never Wear A Red Shirt And Khaki Pants At Target.
Target, where the customers become employees just because they are wearing red
New theory: target doesn’t have actual employees
this one time I ran a red light on mistake and I didn’t notice it was red until it was too late so I just ran the light screeching like an angry pterodactyl the entire time
a cop was at the intersection so he pulled me over and when he came up to my window he was wheezing cause he was laughing so hard and he said
“ok so i know you ran a red light and that’s really bad and you should never do it again but i’m not gonna give you a ticket cause that was the funniest thing i’ve ever seen and my partner can’t get out of the car cause he’s laughing so hard he’s about to pee himself”
i forgot that i’d had my window open when i ran the red light and the cop told me that all he heard from my car was this really high-pitched “screeeeeeeeeeEEEEEEEAAAHHHHHHHHHhhhhhhhhhhhhhh”
and that’s how i got out of getting a ticket for running a red light
So true. I miss it
I can’t believe they oblitered straight men like that
@tabbran please add lemon man story to this

That was a wild goddamn ride
god this was worth the read
THEY JUST KEEP JUMPING ON THE COUNTER. AND CRAWLING UP HER LEG. THIS IS THE GREATEST PROBLEM YOU COULD EVER HAVE
This is both adorable and stressful to watch. Damn it, kittens, be good! Food’s coming!
OH MY GOD SHE NAMED ONE OF HER CATS OBAMA
I love that kittens are gently placed on the ground… whereas adult cats, because they should know better (and are undoubtedly better at landing on their feet) are just… flung.
Oh my god I love this
I love that the kittens continue climbing her even after she steps away from the food - the goal is no longer ‘get to food’ it is ‘climb the human’!
UNDER SEIGE!!
ophouden = obama blijkbaar?
Every time I reread the Hunger Games trilogy I become more furious about the movie representation.
These books were about an indigenous woman (with a brain injury in book 3) living in poverty overthrowing a corrupt white government.
She was demisexual, had stomach hair, was not even remotely romantically driven (and canonically didn’t even find romance until after she had finished a revolution.)
And Peeta was disabled and physically abused as a child and they both suffered from mental health problems and the parallel between the Capitol and the ruling rich was so very transparent.
And I’m seeing fun coloured makeup in stores labeled “Capitol colours from the Hunger Games”!
These books were about the revolution of the most oppressed taking over the extravagance and elitism and decadence of the ruling class while citizens starved.
These books were a parallel to our current social dynamics, they were a call to arms. They were a battle cry for the impeding ruin of the rich white ruling class.
And the movies portrayed them as a fantasy, a romance story, a cute little tale. When the real story in the books was one of strength and upheaval and shifting paradigms and revolutions.
And like…… the death of a young Black child sparked the rebellion.
When Katniss thinks about running away in the second book it is the memory of Rue that makes her decide to stay and “cause all kinds of trouble.”
That is an indigenous woman deciding that the death of a Black child is so horrific and unacceptable that she needs to start an entire uprising about it. That is WOC solidarity.
Then again, when Katniss is talking with Peeta about not leaving he literally, canonically and verbally SAYS it’s because of Rue.
The movies did not lend enough weight to the injustice and violence that Black women face; they didn’t waste any time in deciding the rebellion came from their White Katniss’s determination to overthrow the Capitol.
The movies purposely and aggressively erased all of the racial oppression and power and dynamics that were so apparent in the books.
They made Katniss white, they made Gale white, they erased Peeta’s amputation, they seriously diminished the PTSD both of them faced (which was actually one of the more accuract accounts of PTSD I had ever read in the books), they drastically lessened the weight and importance of Rue’s death.
Anyway, fuck the movies. The books are miraculous. Right down to the respect of survival sex workers. Right down to the power imbalances of society being set in the hands of a violent old white man who has surgery to appear younger.
The author said these books was based on her interpretation of kids’ experiences in war torn Vietnam and Iraq. None of these kids were supposed to be white.
What I find endlessly ironic about the Hunger Games movies and the promotions around them was that Suzanne Collins predicted everything, laid it out in detail (Interviews with Caesar Flickerman, anyone? Literally any celebrity appearance on any late night show), and the movies fulfilled every single item she highlighted. Hollywood made it into their typical thoughtless action movie, removing all the agency of WOC and the systemic oppression they face which the OP and other previous posters highlight because to do so would be to acknowledge the power they themselves wield and to visual a legitimate challenge to such unjust authority in one of the most public ways possible. They hold power, and they want us to forget they do.
