You'd have to stop the world just to stop the feeling
In my Eras era. 💅
People love to praise Rhysand as their ✨morally grey “feminist” book boyfriend✨. But then go on to crucify Nesta for being morally grey.
For instance, when people condemn Nesta for telling Feyre about the pregnancy out of anger. While saying Rhysand was sexy to threaten to kill Nesta. And that it was justified because he was angry.
Both of them said something out of anger and made a morally grey decision by not telling Feyre about the pregnancy in the first place. (Not that Nesta really had a Choice. But that’s a conversation for another time). Neither were in the right. Yet only Nesta was punished.
Sansa, Smart
So. Sansa. I hear some people think she’s not very clever. This is a view shared by several characters in the books.
But there’s no reason the readership should share those views. Sansa is a very clever individual who makes increasingly good use of several skills she started the series with, and develops greatly as an observer and an actor over the course of the story.
Putting everything under a cut, for reasons of four books of brainpower.

Robin Wright as Buttercup THE PRINCESS BRIDE (1987) dir. Rob Reiner
#cary elwes once said that robin wright had the harder job #bc he got to be fun and swashbuckling #but she had to ground the whole film in emotion and sincerity #and you know what? he’s RIGHT
You’re not supposed to say this stuff out loud, dude
"If voting were fair, we would lose" is not the point you want to be making publicly, man. That's not a rallying cry that's a self-own.

so much rage for anyone who tells the story of the radium girls like “ohoho weren’t people in the 20s fucking stupid” and not like “corporate greed has always cost people’s lives and health”
History Lesson:
The Radium Girls were factory workers who painted glowing markers on watches. They pointed their paint brushes with their lips after being told do so and that it was safe for them to do so by their managers. The paint had radium in it to promote the glow.
Dentists became the first people aware of the medical complications happening amongst all the women working in this factory. Complaints of loose bones, teeth, ulcers, etc. began to circulate amongst the staff.
Eventually, the girls started to die. The first one’s jaw literally came off her skull before her death as a result of radiation poisoning.
Perhaps all of that you could say was “stupidity” on behalf of the workers and corporation.
But what came next wasn’t. The corporation, the U.S. Radium Corporation, originally called the Radium Luminous Material Corporation, lied to the public and said that their workers were dying from alternate causes such as syphilis. They continued to instruct their staff to work business as usual, perpetuating more deaths and illness amongst their staff so their product could continue to be made.
The Radium Corp offered to change the method of painting dials, but the alternative brushes slowed down work and they were paid by the dial. To continue earning the wages they needed, the girls were forced to continue to use the brushes that they had to wet with their mouths.
The girls eventually took the matter to court. They took it to court eight times because Radium Corp continued to appeal until 1939.
As a result of their win, which provided a settlement to each girl a lump sum, a yearly stipend, and medical expensed paid by the company, LABOR LAW changed to ensure that companies could be held accountable for not properly protecting their employees from disease. New health regulations and standards were put in place to keep workers safe and they stopped using the brushes after that point.
(I don’t have the data to say if there was a corresponding wage increase to factor for lost wages due to a slowing down after new regulations were made).
The point, though, is that this company willfully knew that its staff was geting sick and dying from the procedures they put in place, and lied to their staff and started a public smear campaign saying these women had sexually transmitted diseases instead.
That’s not on the “stupid” women, that’s corporate greed.
The law then for workman’s compensation said if you couldn’t prove harm within 2 years, you had no case. It often took 5 years for these women to show symptoms, depending on exposure.
