And I'm so fucking beautiful I can't stand it

I'm Erinna. I'm a queer Australian in my 30's. She/her pronouns. I'm fond of bright pink & I've got a sweet mermaid tattoo. 18+ only followers, thank you.

Shinji Ikari in RGU: Very conflicted. Pretty likely to treat Anthy like Rei and wanting to protect her just like Utena does, but by projecting his mom on her, so closer to Miki. However since he's a boy, Akio wouldn't manipulate him as he does Utena, but as he does Touga and Saionji. His self-esteem issues would make him the perfect target, as the affirmation of the patriarchy also offers a path to accepting "It's ok for me to be here". Unlikely to break the cycle and save Anthy, most likely to end up as just another abusive Duelist (and not a particularly good one).

Utena in NGE: Although she has no connection to the EVA's soul she can still pilot it intuitively thanks to her basketball skills

nothing is more tumblr than having a tumblr sexyman wiki and then warn you to not find some of those men sexy because it's problematic

in all seriousness, if someone atticwives ryland grace, the power dynamic on display (as buck has already mentioned) is kind of horrendous, but it already exists in the text. i gestured at it in caulk worm fic and subverted it primarily because it didn't match the tone, but there's so much going on...

grace is fundamentally at the behest of paternalistic benefactors who consider his existence kind of cute and interesting. this is a very scary position to be in: if, say, funding ran out for his biome, what would he do? i know weir (and, by proxy, the film) glosses over this by making eridians a sort of utopia, but andy weir also doesn't give a single shit about things like "linguistics" or "culture" so i dont trust that guy

he is already atticwifed because presumably there is lots of stuff going on outside on erid and he's unable to participate in it. for example, we know on earth grace lacks friends; does he have friends outside of rocky on erid? can you be friends with a team of zookeepers hired solely to keep you alive? can you, as a human, be good friends with your primary care doctor? and even if you can---can you trust your doctor to be honest with you both as your doctor and your friend?

beyond that, what is grace's status? is he a citizen? do they even want him there? surely there is opposition to his existence. if erid is neoliberal democratic, is he given a right to vote? if they're anarcho-syndicalists (my preferred choice, for what is a thrum if not a union) is he a member of a union to be able to bargain for his rights? is he able to join a union without the ability to thrum? does he even have any notion of the political situation? or is that something he's happily oblivious to in order to keep him safe?

he is fundamentally at rocky's mercy for all of the above. as he seems to have no access to the outside world bar what rocky filters through for him, rocky can tell him something and he has absolutely no way to go check for himself. if rocky were to say, lie to him for grace's own good, that could spiral very very fast indeed. i know, again, the film glosses over this, but that puts grace in a very tenuous position. why not set the attic alight to be able to truly see for the first time the goings on of the house below?

The trouble with certain shows and their very intelligent fans is that the latter are doing PhD level dissertations on a coloring book for toddlers

[bethanyactually]

#and with shows that could actually withstand PhD level dissertations #the fans show up like why is this complicated why is it not a coloring book for toddlers (via @ariaste)

i was going to respond seriously to this comment on one of my posts but the last part completely obliterated my train of thought and my will to engage with this person

[determinate-negation]

i want yall to know that the conclusion of this whole debacle is that this person said they mixed up the real kidnapping of aldo moro in which no heads were eaten with the fucking movie cannibal holocaust

I consider this to easily be the most important post in leftblr history

This zine, and I cannot over emphasize how funny this is, is for Anne Rice’s Interview with the Vampire

[getvalentined]

These people blocked me on both Twitter and Tumblr, and then someone used a burner account to go off on me on Twitter. This person insisted that I was singlehandedly responsible for the project falling.

I made one comment, and it was this:

No clue how my single comment did this. But okay.
