Review OPM Manga Chapter 128: Deep-seated Malice
I have no need for tentacle porn in my life. Murata said ‘too bad!’
One-Punch Man. Nominally a story about an overpowered super-hero, but if you don’t like the genre, wait five pages. So it goes!
Keep reading
Summary I'm not going to really bother with a summary for this chapter. It's a really simple story -- Atomic Samurai challenges King to sho
So you know when you're writing a scene where the hero is carrying an injured person and you realize you've never been in this situation and have no idea how accurate the method of transportation actually is?
Oh boy, do I have a valuable resource for you!
Here is a PDF of the best ways to carry people depending on the situation and how conscious the injured person needs to be for the carrying position.
Literally a life saver.
(No pun intended.)
(in case you are unable to access the pdf)

reading progressive sex ed caricatures with accurate and detailed and realistic diagrams of sexual organs + shows their variation, but all i can think about is how there is no discussion of what srs is besides the fact that it exists
how may people know the before and afters of vaginoplasty? phalloplasty? meta? how it works at all?
this one has been passed around recently from the mayo clinic and that actually makes me so happy because how many of transfeminine people are aware of what their options even look like?
there’s a diagram for phallo and meta from springer link(i believe) and. honestly i’d never seen these before and i dont think i’ve ever seen any diagrams. i know vaguely because of reading papers or listening to people talk about their experience but i’ve never seen it, yk? it makes me more confident in my choice to get meta when i’m older
There’s a website called Transbucket that has a whole archive of before and after photos, surgery costs, surgeon names and locations, and general feedback on complications, sensation, everything. It’s been around for at least a decade, and there are photos of some folks five or eight years down the line. It’s organized by procedure, and it’s very comprehensive. It’s NSFW of course but it’s an amazing resource!!!
Are you considering or have had transition care? | Transbucket.com
Demystify transition! Break irrational medical fear!

Women’s Undergarments
Sooooooo as asked @misseccentric here is a post about undergarments (I think I’ll make another one for men’s undergarments later!). Basically are 5 garments (pug not included) that we consider “undergarments” and after a woman was dressed with them she was… well, ready to get dressed (I know, WTF).
1. Shift
Also known as chemise, the shift was the very first layer of clothing for a woman of any class, worn with nothing underneath (no underpants darlings!) it was usually made of white linen (the whiter the finer and more expensive) and it could have simple and discreet lace or very small riffles on the neckline and cuffs. The main function of the shift was to protect the clothing from the body, since daily bathing was not customary (eeewww), that’s why there are not many surviving garments (double eeeeww).
2. Stays
Stays are what people usually call “corset”, but back in the 17th century they were called “body” or “boned body and in the 18th century “stays” or “pair of stays”. Their main purpose was to shape the upper body in a conical form and to support the bosom, so it is not a constrictive garment more than one of support. Most women wore stays of different boning and materials depending on their social and economical situation, but in vague shape and style the stays of a woman from the upper class and the ones from the house maid were not that different from each other. Made of linen, wool or silk they were reinforced with whalebone or cane.
3. Pockets
A pocket (or a pair of them) was tied around the waist since actual pockets stitched to the garments didn’t happen until the 19th century. They could be of plain linen or be beautifully embroidered (even though no one would see them) and have a rather big size since they should hold all the necessities of a woman (think about all a girl would carry in her purse nowadays).
4. Paniers and Bums
The hoops or paniers were also made of linen and reinforced with whalebone or cane. The biggest expression of this garment happened at the court, where even if in the fashionable dress big panniers were no longer in fashion, they kept appearing through the whole century. The hoops are a key for the century silhouette in combo with the stays: the curve-less upper body was the perfect contrast with the big bottom that had volume only on the sides of the dress. That is until the bustle became fashionable.
The bustle (bums, rumps or culs),came as a substitute to the huge panniers and they were only small hoops or pads of different sized and shapes that added volume to the hips, both on sides and back (VERY Georgiana Cavendish).
5. Stockings and Garters
Stockings then and now are pretty much the same in shape but not in materials since they could be made of woven as well as knitted silk or wool. My favourite part of 18th century stockings is the over-the-top decoration and the bright colours these people wore (and here I am with a closet full of black and grey clothes!). Since (obviously) there was no spandex back in the day, you had to use garters (ribbon or tape) to keep the stockings in place, and of course those must have a little colourful party too with embroideries, gilded threads, knitted materials, satin colours and phrases and monograms.

Amazing
We’re so used to the sexual reading of the entire book of Dracula, which takes the sensuality of the early chapters and jams everything that follows it into the same metaphor no matter how poorly it fits, but I feel the segment we’re approaching works much better with a lens of chronic illness and disease.
Vampire legends are inextricably intertwined with disease. Many of them are said to have been birthed by burying victims of disease too soon, who later seem to rise from the dead. But what’s more is that Stoker and his family have deep-seated trauma over disease: his mother had to flee her hometown at the age of 14 because of a horrific cholera epidemic, and Stoker himself was bedridden as a child from an illness that no one could identify.
Found this quote from Irish Historian Mary McGarry:
Bram as an adult asked his mother to write down her memories of the epidemic for him, and he supplemented this using his own historic research of Sligo’s epidemic. Scratching beneath the surface (of this essay), I found parallels with Dracula. [For instance,] Charlotte says cholera enters port towns having traveled by ship, and can travel overland as a mist—just like Dracula, who infects people with his unknown contagion.
I bring this up because a lot of academic analysis insists that Lucy sleepwalking is proof of her being the Slutty Woman archetype that needs to be punished. This suggested symbolism is hilarious when put next to the text saying she inherited it from her father, but I’d like to suggest a different angle from the lens of disease suggested earlier:
Lucy’s sleepwalking is a condition that predates Dracula but makes her an easy target for him to prey on. Through the lens of disease symbolism, she now is someone with chronic illness or disability who is especially vulnerable to infectious disease. This becomes a cross-section of Stoker’s trauma regarding disease: his own mystery illness and his mother fleeing a plague.
To wind down my rambles with a bit of a soapbox, I feel this adds a very poignant layer to the struggle to keep Lucy alive. The COVID pandemic showed a horrifying level of casual ableism vs disabled and immunodeficient individuals, shrugging off their vulnerability and even their deaths with “well COVID only kills them.” There’s something deeply gratifying at seeing the way everyone around Lucy fights to the bitter end to protect her and refuses to just give her up to Dracula, whether it’s Mina physically chasing him away or the suitor squad pouring their blood into her veins or Van Helsing desperately searching for cures. The vulnerable deserve no less than this. They’re not acceptable casualties.
This post has already circulated a lot but reblogging again since we’re at this stage of the book now.

HOLY SHIT WHAT???
Here, below, is the press release I sent out today to explain what I did and why.
Since I can’t afford to sue DC, to force them to live up to the letter and the spirit of our long-time agreements; since even winning such a suit would take ridiculous amounts of money out of my pocket and years out of my life (I’m 67 years old, and don’t have the years to spare), I’ve decided to take a different approach, and fight them in a different arena, inspired by the principles of asymmetric warfare. The one thing in our contract the DC lawyers can’t contest, or reinterpret to their own benefit, is that I am the sole owner of the intellectual property. I can sell it or give it away to whomever I want. I chose to give it away to everyone. If I couldn’t prevent Fables from falling into bad hands, at least this is a way I can arrange that it also falls into many good hands. Since I truly believe there are still more good people in the world than bad ones, I count it as a form of victory.

*September 16th, 2029 –Alucard returns to the Hellsing Manor after an absence of thirty years.
*All dates marked with an asterisk are an approximate guesstimation, though based as firmly as possible on canon information and timeline. (i.e. “The following day”, “38 hours ago”, “10 years ago”, etc.) Calculations were made based on commercial flight times and the perceived urgency of characters. I also did not state the day, as Hirano did in some of the earlier timestamps, as the date (i.e. Wednesday, June 14th, 1999) did not fall on the stipulated day on the week in 1999.
Incidental Things I Discovered Over The Course Of Calculating This:
*That one time when the little boy interrupts Anderson watching the Rio de Janeiro massacre to tell him that “supper’s ready”, was probably the last time anyone at the orphanage ever saw him alive. A commercial flight from Rome to Rio takes twelve hours, and Anderson burst in on Hellsing in their motel room sometime before 8.00 AM the day after they escaped. Ergo, even with a special highspeed Vatican plane, he would still need to leave pretty much right after that scene with the kid to make it to Rio in time to interrogate the local peeps and find out where Alucard & Co. went, then arrange clearance for a nearby Vatican private airfield jet to fly them out of there. And Anderson, of course, only comes back from Rio to get to the battlefield in London, which we all know he does not survive. Furthermore, for security reasons, Anderson probably hadn’t said farewell to any of the kids either (because enemies could come and torture his location out of them if they did know where he went and all that jazz), and if he left in the middle of the night and stopped to say goodbye the kids would definitely want to know where he was going.
*Seras would have become a vampire on July 5th, 1999, and been a vampire for almost three months before she first took blood by consuming Pip on September 15th/16th, 1999.
*Discounting the epilogue/30-year time skip and flashbacks, the entire recorded events of Hellsing take place in almost exactly four months.
*The picture Integra and Maxwell had their meeting in front of, at least as of 2017, is not in the Imperial War Museum. Nor, ironically enough, is the hallway they had their meeting in. My sister and I visited the Museum on vacation during Spring Break, and the only place we discovered with a glass skylight was the center of the very topmost floor, which was devoid of any paintings (or wooden floors) whatsoever.
