yk how hard it is for me to not correct misinformation on posts about sports on this website full of people who don't watch sports

women in soccer are not scoring more goals than the men's game on average because they are better at striking the ball, its because specialised goalkeeper training costs money and only recently have most teams started hiring gk coaches. ellie roebuck is among the first generation of english gks to have had a gk coach since she joined an academy.

both chess and motor racing are actually formally unsegregated, only one woman (judit polgar) has been ranked within the top 10 for chess players ever and she was raised by her psychologist father with her sisters as a chess prodigy. lella lombardi is the only woman to score any points in formula 1, ever. the creation of women's leagues is not entirely down to women being better than men and men being afraid, like stop lying and doing the athletes in these sports a disservice, they face significant barriers in access to sponsorship, training and misogyny from peers and fans to get there. you could bother with reading some scholarship on all of this or you could lie on the internet and count it as a win for feminism. like its fine to be disinterested in sports.

and not every sport is boxing for fucks sake. weight classes introduce extremely disordered eating regimes when athletes try to cut and drop into a lower class last minute bc of the advantages of training at higher weight class (getting to eat more food.) sorry but i would prefer that people about to play several hours of tennis do not starve themselves in the leadup to the game.

the sooner you understand that the right trying to 'protect women's sports' is not actually abt protecting anyone, the sooner you will understand that assimilation into the modern machine that is elite sports should never be the aim for women or men, cis or trans.

because no one in commercial sports is protected at all. we take children as young as usually 6, isolate them from their peers in age, construct notions of success for them that are debilitating to most people's sense of self worth, give coaches and parents license to abuse under the guise of training, valorise athletes who play through pain, encourage disordered eating, do not offer financial education and leave them prey to fraud, have no safety nets or pain management support for those whose injuries end their careers and/or leave them with lifelong chronic pain.

Honorifics: Silver

Silver refers to all the first-year and second-year students by their first names with no honorifics, no exceptions.

Silver refers to all the non-Diasomnia third-year students with the "senpai" honorifics, no exceptions.

Silver refers to Malleus as "Malleus-sama," with no exceptions.

He typically refers to Lilia as "Father-dono."

Yana has said that, originally, Silver referred to Lilia as "Father-sama," but the repetition of "Malleus-sama" from both Sebek and Silver together plus "Lilia-sama" from Sebek and "Father-sama" from Silver became too much, so "Father-sama" was changed to "Father-dono."

In Book 7 we heard what is maybe the one and only instance of Silver dropping from honorific from Lilia's name to call him a more casual title (similar to "dad" instead of "father"), while speaking with Malleus.

In the December 2023 issue of B's Log there is an interview with Silver's VA Shimazaki Nobunaga who explains this scene, saying that it was a moment of brotherhood between Malleus and Silver, two sons both raised by Lilia trying to come to terms with Lilia leaving:

"In the Main Story, Chapter 2 of Book 7, Silver breaks down and starts to cry, but that might never have happened if the person with him at the time hadn’t been Malleus, his older brother. Silver has spent so much time with Malleus and they have so many shared memories of his father, and he probably knew that Malleus shared in how lonely he felt in response to Lilia leaving the school. I think that’s why he wasn’t able to control his true feelings in that moment: because he was with Malleus."

Reverse AU? Or something like that.

Fluttershy, spirit of the wilderness, goddess of nature, once attempted to destroy pony civilization as we know it, and return the world to it's "natural state". Letting the plants and animals take over, no matter the cost to pony life. She was stopped by Princesses Celestia and Luna, and turned into a tree for one thousand years.

Discord, rare wielder of chaos magic, expert in alternate magics, cryptozoologist, and dedicated O&O player, accidentally undoes the spell trying to explore this strange magical tree, and frees her from her arborous prison.

He can fix it though! He'll just convince her not to do it again. How hard can it be to reform one villain?
