24. any pronouns are fine, not referring to me is ideal.

don't turn around (please turn around)

[apricops]

stop stop stop making appeals to some 'natural state of humanity.' war and slavery and xenophobia are in fact some of the most universal human behaviors ever recorded. humans do not have any kind of innate Noble Spirit that is being corrupted. You can just say "war is bad because it hurts people" you can just leave it at that! that should be an effective statement just by itself! shut the fuck up about Essences!

Strong contender for the best chapter in Moby Dick is the one where they meet another ship whose captain lost a limb to the white whale (an arm instead of a leg) and that guy is Completely Normal about it. Thinks it’s ridiculous to get vengeance against a dumb animal. Hasn’t tried to chase Moby Dick since, because why the fuck would he? The book cannot make more clear that Ahab is choosing to be Like This

does anyone want to add to my list

he is like a victorian orphan to me

[ouyangposting-quarantine]

prev oh absolutely, i have to peer review

[swordsonnet]

zhu and ouyang moodboard

[shoukohime]

babygirl the way you forsake your happiness on your relentless quest to vengeance, your complicated relationship with gender and the way you're covered in blood have bewitched me body and soul

now i do not care about the christopher nolan odyssey movie and i probably won't end up seeing it. BUT for the record. if any of you fucks post some shit like "UGH i can't believe they cut/changed THIS part" and you reference something that exclusively happened in epic: the musical, i AM going to beat you with the biggest odyssey book i own

[aarohisingh25]

As the biggest epic fan who has read the Odyssey

For fuck sake people , epic is an interpretation not the actual myth

You don't change the source because of it' s interpretation, that's not how it works

( I have come along so many people on pintrest comparing epic and the Odyssey and it is so annoying)

And that being said , I will not be watch the Christopher Nolan Odyssey because Tom Holland was not cast as Penelope

They should invent a person who is sexually attracted to you and also cares about you as a person

stop saying you can fix general ouyang. he's already been fixed. and look how that turned out.

[swordsonnet]

zhu and ouyang truly have the dynamic of all time. their fates are inextricably entwined. they're the same and yet they're opposites in many ways. they're the only ones who can truly understand each other and yet they're usually at odds with each other. they're extremely powerful together and yet they spend much of the story on opposite sides. she kills 10,000 of his men. he cuts off her hand. he lets her see him at his most vulnerable. she cares for him even after he betrays her. they have weird bdsm scenes that are technically nonsexual but still manage to be intensely erotic. they pretend to be married once. they're besties they're worsties they're queer solidarity and queer hostility they're enemies with benefits they're fucked-up soulmates. they're not romantic or platonic or a secret third thing but an even more secret fourth thing. who's doing it like them

my favourite genre of sff where there's So Much Gender happening, but it's all kind of incidental to the main plot (Destroying The Empire)

[spiribia]

it's actually sick you get tired of eating the same food over and over when some animals they just eat grass all day mind you. just another pointless challenge mechanic added in by big universe to get you to go to the grocery store

[snippybaby]

Was literally thinking about this when I gave the rabbits their breakfast, the same dry pellets they get twice a day every day, and they were so hyped for it, as they always are. Why can't I have that where are my pellets #mypellets

[ceruleanheaven]

[fairycosmos]

everything is political and it’s not even the slightest bit hard to understand why that is. im so sick of purposeful obtuseness being the norm now. get fucking real immediately like we do not have the time for this

[iamafatvagina101]

If you call women "goonbait" you have to shoot yourself It doesn't get better for people of your kind

"if libraries were invented today, the rich would call it communism" if libraries were invented today about half of the "socialists" on this site would whine about how they're violating smol bean authors' intellectual property
