I love you characters who challenge what it means to be human. I love you characters who make you think about what it means to be alive. I love you characters who give you mild existential dread. I love you characters whose identities are fought for. I love you characters who make you cherish life itself.
Iām afraid some of yaāll just donāt have the freak gene that lets you enjoy ACTUAL enemies to lovers. Yaāll think that trope is just like coworkers fighting over a promotion or smth like no give me people that have tried to maim and kill one another or give me nothing
listen. i am sorry to everyone having fun with using this term casually but i cannot hold my silence any longer. "jester's privilege" is not "heeehe i'm funee so i get away with things :3c". it's referring to the special niche role the jester held within royal society and, more specifically, their relationship to the king. jesters were not just like, the king's personal stand up comedian (some were, of course, peep my dude Roland the Farter). they also would often advise their king, be used as a diplomatic tool, sometimes even create and foster longstanding emotional relationships with them. so when you use the term "jester's privilege" you need to stop thinking of it as just "i use humor to get out of Situations". it's more like "the most powerful man in the land will forgive my transgressions because of our years' long Situationship"
"The oral histories of medical abuse voiced by African Americans are often dismissed as mythological, but without objective proof of this label. African Americans' personal stories and familial histories of abuse have rarely surfaced in the medical literature, or in the popular literature. This is not surprising, because African Americans were not well represented in these canons until fairly recently.
Why should we give the physicians' medical narratives more credence than the numerous contentions of slaves, sharecroppers, and contemporary African Americans that they have been subjected to abusive medical research? Until now, the discussion has suffered greatly from our Western literary bias, which encourages us to believe planters' and physicians' writings about the health and medical issues of African Americans, but to give insufficient weight to a rich oral history passed down by African Americans, a history that has preserved the memory of medical abuses.
We quite logically see medical authority to medical experts, but this book will illustrate how race, culture, and economics have trumped medical and scientific truths at every turn. It will make the case that physicians had every motive to skew narratives against their Black subjects, not because they were especially racist or unfair (although many were) but because the culture of American medicine has mirrored the larger culture that encompassed enslavement, segregation, and less dramatic forms of racial inequity.
The bias against African American medical narratives emanates from culture and politics, including the Western literary bias against oral history."
Introduction- Medical Apartheid, Harriet A. Washington
(i.e., we told each other what happened and passed it down, and it was seen as stories and not a History)
sometimes i just want to shake women who exhaust themselves for the men in their lives like. they would never do that shit for youuuu. they dont even defend you to their friends when youre not around. they would never do that shit for youuuuuuuuu
heās such a silly goose and then he locks in and Iām reminded of his title
I say this every time, but people Do Not Realize just how short the timeline has been on gay people in kidsā media. And itās an ongoing fight, but this was 10 - 15 years ago.
I'm not in the Steven Universe fandom. I don't really even know the show. But the story she's telling here is important to remember. What feels like small snippets of representation took a lot of fighting to get and it wasn't as long ago as you think.
the bad news: I now hate my current wip and strongly believe there isn't a single joke in it that lands
the good news: I know my process enough to recognize this as the slump that I hit in everything I write when it's like three-quarters-ish done
the bad news: the only way out is through
the good news: I do know the way out!
the bad news: yeah but it's through
making a cross stitch that says "I am funny and he would fucking say that" to hang directly above my monitor
"hey toast you stayed up past midnight because you were working on the fic and not because you were procrastinating by making a hideous pattern for a joke cross stitch" have you never met a writer before
gonna tell my kids this was live laugh love
I consider myself a real hater but sometimes you really do go too far with haterism. once I had to break mutuals with someone bc they hated the entire art form of poetry and the final straw was when they started hateposting about soup. The food
museum date but i spend the whole time crying over the concept of history and time
donāt worry about it
