The cancellation of "Wicked Spot" should make it clear to many of you that there really isn't a "safe" space for women who write stories for women who love other women. It's not just a myth. It's not just manga, even TV series are getting canceled.
@loser0x1lover I hope we see her celebrating garp's death no joke. My dream is we get at least a page of the bandits partying with a moment of honor to ace in there
Black people dont need to be made into animals or aliens to become “palatable” to audiences. We are alive and we have stories to share. If you want to see black kids share their story with the world considering following FLY on Kickstarter. We launch June 9th ! (link in bio)
@percystarzzz I have a white dad and a native mom, dad went through a big phase of wanting to be an Indian man so from 4 onward we ate like traditional curries and dishes and now my safe foods are all from that period and I live in a house with my mother who is ready meals only its crazy
@unemployedb22 Yeah... it sometimes hurts to see how praised it is for its depiction of her high libido...idk it even feels like punishing her for it sometimes narratively...
also something I've noticed as I've transitioned is that people are waaaaaay less willing to believe a woman is autistic and will immediately accuse you of being rude or thinking you're better than everyone
@Yuserui Kinda think the librarians are brimhats/heavily like minded internally and I wonder if beldaruit is hostage in his position to an extent, I think he knows a lot but doesn't have the power in society to move how he wants to, possibly due to the other branches possibly just ableism
Something that doesn’t get talked about enough is how bad the downstream effects of this can be.
When every authority figure in your life is disputing your lived experience (eg: you’re trying your hardest but being told you’re just lazy and don’t care) you end up not trusting your own perception of reality.
This leaves you extremely vulnerable to people who benefit from that.
Abusive partners, toxic friendships, exploitative workspaces, etc all have WAY more power to harm people who have internalized that they should defer to other people’s perception of a situation over their own.
