I… don’t actually know. Nobody’s ever asked me what I’ve wanted before. I think I want to leave? And I think… I dunno. What do you want to do?

Slay The Princess Moodboards: The Damsel

[mid-evil-werewolf]

You will never understand the mental torture of being 12 years old and having a debilitating crush on Hugo Weaving Elrond & having to lie to ur friends and say you like Legolas Orlando bloom like all the other girls so you don’t get fucking bullied

[mid-evil-werewolf]

Now I’m 35 and I have a live sized cardboard Elrond who lives on my stairwell & I kiss him every time I go upstairs so anyway the moral of the story is never kill yourself

[mid-evil-werewolf]

No hate on you because you’re braver than any US marine for that but I think we might have been having wildly different experiences

[spones-in-my-bones]

Hold on, I need to look something up

The Giant Spider??

(valid and good for you tbh)

[butchdykekondraki-moved]

free my girl she did all that shit but the fandom is mischaracterizing her for it

[butchdykekondraki-moved]

free my girl she has the same character traits as a male character but is getting deemed a bitch for them

[butchdykekondraki-moved]

free my girl she acted irrationally in a situation where it was impossible to act rationally and is now being hated for it

[bitchautism]

can everyone get woke again. I miss her. I miss woke.

[bitchautism]

and by woke I mean aware of racism. the original meaning. don't do stupid bullshit here. woke = aware of anti-Black racism . ok

#Make Racists Scared Again 2026

[nepharim-tree]

Having rambling thoughts about Slay the Princess and how The Long Quiet is finality, literally textually created to "Succeed" by eliminating the possibility of change and impermanence, and supposed to die over and over again until it accepts that role of being monstrous permanence as bestowed by it's creator, and that the actual happy ending of the game comes when the player instead aligns itself with the feminine creation which, again, literally in the text, is the embodiment of life and fluidity

[nepharim-tree]

Oh and y'know what on that note it also needs to be said how the Long Quiet and the Shifting Mound are implied to be parts of a whole being that the Narrator cleaved, and the resulting vessels necessitating the eradication of the feminine aspect... yeah. Lot to be chewed around thinking about how external forces enforce masculinizing pressures to cut off anything feminine from oneself.

Come getchur Monster/God Caine food! I like the post ep 9 idea that the loss of power means Caine loses control much easier or gets tired more easily

I like to think Spectre can reshape her ghost hair into whatever hairstyle she wants

I still don't have a name for this artwork, but I am thrilled that it finally exists. The first work in a new style is always special.

[diaryofageekgirl]

So I guess this all comes down to which one of us caves first. And it’s not going to be me. I’m extremely patient.

Also I am asking all of you, once again, to learn about ecosystem conservation and restoration instead of wallowing in "we are already past the point of no return" or that it will take "millennia" to restore ecosystems.

You have to understand that nature does not work in the same timeframe as ours. Protecting and restoring ecosystems is RIDICULOUSLY inexpensive and requires very little industrial technology; shovels and saplings are not exactly high-tech. But it takes time and long-term projects with people determined to do it. Maybe we are too focused in our "we want it now" thinking, but what you see today is not what you may see in 10, 20, 50, even 80 years if you live that long.

But it works. It's working right now, and when capitalism is replaced by socialism and we stop thinking on short-term gain, when our societies are focused into the common welfare instead of accumulation, it will even work better. Again I could point out to individual examples but instead, I encourage you to learn about ecology. We are well past from the catastrophic "Earth will die and there's nothing we can do" predictions from the 80s. We know what to do, we know it can work.

First-of-its-kind study definitively shows that conservation actions are effective at halting and reversing biodiversity loss

A new study published online today, April 25, in the scientific journal Science provides the strongest evidence to date that not only is nat

This article talks about this very much in the "see? ecology can help the economy too!" tone that unfortunately is sort of necessary to convince people in the current capitalist system. But I don't want you to focus on this right now.

I want you to KNOW how doable this is. How inexpensive this is, how POSSIBLE THIS IS. That people working and loving the land and nature they live in is possible. That these projects WORK, THEY DO restore and preserve ecosystems. That humanity is neither a plague that destroys everything or a passive bystander on its own destruction but that these are actual things that can be, are, and will be implemented, backed by actual science and results. This is not empty #hopecore #hopepunk feel good stuff, these are things you can learn about, even work towards, and you can most certainly demand they are part of our society.

Are you listening to me?

"I'm just losing hope." Then get some fucking conviction. Millions of people around the globe are working their asses off and seeing results. What they are doing IS WORKING.

This orange peel story was huge years ago: https://www.scientificamerican.com/podcast/episode/a-fruitful-experiment-in-land-conservation/

Beavers reintroduced to historic wetlands improve them at such a level that we can see the improvements from space: https://news.mongabay.com/2023/09/nasa-satellites-reveal-restoration-power-of-beavers/

Africa is successfully slowing desertification and restoring historic farming soil with their Green Wall project: https://welcomeafrica.org/en/africa-combats-desertification-with-a-belt-of-life/

There has even been success at regrowing coral reefs--something which I am old enough to be told was impossible. But people have been hard at work for decades since then, and this is one of the results: https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2024/03/240308123248.htm

REPAIRING THE DAMAGE IS ENTIRELY WITHIN THE REALM OF POSSIBILITY.

THERE IS ALWAYS HOPE IF YOU HAVE THE CONVICTION TO BACK IT UP.
