ok question. do we know of any tranquil that actually does live outside of the circle. and its not something like pharamond, where he was given a mission to do so they had to let him leave. because i just remembered that fucking "the tranquil can leave the circle" and im like ok but is there one tho.

I just argued with a girl about how correcting grammar without anyone asking is ableist. For example, there are people with dyslexia, dysgraphia, and other disabilities that may impact your grammar. Even if you know that the person you're correcting doesn't have any grammar impacting disabilities, it's still ableist. It sets a standard that disabled people sometimes aren't able to adhere to. And it's okay that they aren't able to meet that standard. Their worth as a person isn't defined by how abled and neurotypical they are. Anyways, stop correcting grammar; you're basically insulting them. If someone corrected my math without asking first, I would be insulted, too. (I'm dyscalculic, by the way.) TL;DR: Stop policing grammar. It's ableist, even if the person isn't disabled.

Okay but if Ascended Astarion is a full and true Vampire, then there’s no reason he couldn’t have also turned Tav into a full vampire, if he truly cared about them still. Early game Astarion will say that vampires don’t like giving up their power, and spawn are always below them—so if this is true, if ascended Astarion cared about the player, he would’ve broken this cycle. He would’ve been different. But he doesn’t. Because Ascended Astarion is a full and true vampire, just as he’s fully and truly dead.

I am begging for every single one of your thoughts actually

so, i'm an afab, trans/nb human with a shorter pixie cut than eve gilles. i think it's plain ridiculous that expression in any sense of the word is treated as a means to a reductive end. there is no one way to look. to hold the opinion that "women with short hair" is waving some political flag is to completely disregard the agency women have to express themselves however they choose, especially in a society that taxes them on the basis of some nonsensical, one-note image.

my mother has a similar haircut to me. she is no less a woman because of that. if i enjoyed having longer hair, that would not make me any less trans/nb. neutrality of expression both recognises that you are neither dictated by how you choose to express yourself, and that there is beauty in seeing a reflection of exactly who you are, no matter the steps you took to discovering that. for some, expression helps them understand themselves better. for others, it is simply what they have decided looks good. across the spectrum, we are all on a journey to seeing the truest reflection, and to throw the word "woke" on it just perpetuates the idea that humans belong in boxes.

Are you PWs going to address that one of the biggest people in your community just got exposed for making depredators comments about sofia and has a very strange behavior in a group chart with minors or??? because i would post about it to stop engaging with this behavior or since it’s a PW it doesn’t matter?

Babe, one quick search for tags in my blog will show you I will never condone that kind of behavior. I believe I know who you're talking about, and I'm pretty sure I blocked that person months ago so it's not like I can see what they're up to nowadays. Also, don't act like us Portwells haven't been very vocal about not tolerating that behavior. We ship/stan Portwell/EJ and Gina, fictional characters on a fictional show. The majority of us have no problem separating the actors from the characters they play. A few PWs who have this issue do not speak for the rest of us. (Also, I've been dealing with a lot this month so I don't see why you, anon, would think it's okay to put this responsibility on me or any PW for that matter. Many of us already have ppl like that blocked for our own peace of mind. We don't need you monitoring our online experience. We can do that ourselves.🤷🏽‍♀️)

days like this really got me wishing i didn’t happen to teach in a middle school full of 13 year olds who vocally hate history, school, and me in general (rip) because we’re doing ancient rome and today is the second triumvirate which is something i could literally talk about for hours. instead i am desperately trying to get them to listen to me literally say one sentence at a time without shrieking or knocking over a chair </3
