I remember you had a post from a year or two ago that I think about sometimes. Something about how people’s idea of fancy literature is restricted to books from English-speaking countries only and how they’ve never read a translated book before. I couldn’t find it. Do you so happen to know where it is?
Hi anon, I think I remember what you're talking about but it's quite old and I can't find it either. Sorry.

Grief gives no fucks about linear time or capitalist notions of productivity, corporate wellness or respectability and for that we admire her. It comes when we lose something, when we miss each other, when we lack or yearn for connection. Grief recognises that something is missing, be it a person, an animal, an object, a relationship, a friendship, an experience, a desire. We can grieve things that never have been and we can grieve things that haven’t happened yet or might never happen. We can grieve parts of ourselves. Acknowledging the absence of something we need is healthy. The fact that we have no space to do so is not.

i think more people ESPECIALLY americans tbh need to get even just cursory knowledge of the protestant work ethic. there is a christo-capitalist reason you feel guilty when you are not working yourself to death. it isn’t just like, a common Symptom or whatever. it is from a deeply ingrained ideology in the west that affects pretty much everyone (even if you are not a WASP, ur still forced into this culture and will deal with its ramifications).

you can write the most amazing story featuring a compelling brown female character among the main protagonists, but you can bet your life that everyone, including the Champions of Representation, are going to fixate on some random white twink that only shows up at the very end to yell at another dude and make dude/twink the biggest ship on AO3

Gotta give it to the fujos and mlm shipping brigades, they perfectly adapted to Current Times and changed their course of action, so instead of straight out spouting misogynistic slurs, they now label every girl as Girlboss Lesbian to keep them away from the men - aka the main focus of the fandom - and pretend that Actually Care. Meanwhile, actual sapphic content still sits at a negative number.
Yet, despite how nasty and insidious things have become, it's so funny to see people coming up with Wall of Texts about a male character's role in the story and characterization, while the only thing they can come up for a female character is "queen girlboss lesbian".
Yep, sorry, you still don't see women as people! Nice try tho.

I hate, hate, HATE the term “affordable housing.” I hate that we’ve normalized it. I hate that we just accept that the majority of housing, a basic human right, is unaffordable to much of the population. Housing should be affordable as a baseline. If rich people want to add arcades and gold-plated hot tubs on top so be it, but everyone, everyone, regardless of income level, should have access to a clean, comfortable home with enough light and space to make life worth living.

“female characters often have weaker writing compared to male characters” and “audience is unable to appreciate female characters no matter the quality of the writing because they subconsciously see female characters as women first and people second” are two statements that can, should and will coexist

saying “these characters should hatefuck” is actually some of the most thoughtful character analysis one can do
