“There she is.”

How about in 2024 we stop it with reading books with the goal in mind to finish the book so you can add it to your list of read books and start reading books slowly and intentionally with the goal to rip it into pieces with your mind and be touched by it and formed by it and changed by it

Who even likes men in this economy????

“It’s literally impossible to be a woman.
You are so beautiful, and so smart, and it kills me that you don't think you're good enough. Like, we have to always be extraordinary, but somehow, we're always doing it wrong?
You have to be thin, but not too thin, and you can never say you wanna be thin. You have to say you wanna be healthy, but also, you have to BE THIN.
You have to have money, but you can't ask for money because that's crass.
You have to be a boss, but you can't be mean.
You have to lead, but you can't squash other people's ideas.
You're supposed to love being a mother, but don't talk about your kids all the damn time.
You have to be a career woman, but also, always be looking out for other people.
You have to answer for men's bad behavior, which is INSANE, but if you point that out, you're accused of complaining!
You're supposed to stay pretty for men, but not so pretty that you tempt them too much or that you threaten other women because you're supposed to be a part of the sisterhood, but ALWAYS STAND OUT and ALWAYS BE GRATEFUL. But never forget that the system is rigged, so find a way to acknowledge that but ALSO, always be grateful!
You have to never get old. Never be rude. Never show off. Never be selfish. Never fall down. Never fail. Never show fear. Never get OUT OF LINE. It's too hard! It's too contradictory, and nobody gives you a medal or says 'thank you!' And it turns out, in fact, that not only are you doing everything wrong, but also, everything is your fault.
I'm just so tired of watching myself, and every single other woman tie herself into knots, so that people will like us.
And if all of that, is also true for a doll just representing a woman, then I don't even know." -Gloria the barbie movie
this is it. this is exactly it oh my god.
This is the speech. Write it on every goddamn wall out there.
It's my 5 year anniversary on Tumblr 🥳
Yayy

kiss prompts <3
HI. i’ll probably do another part so feel free to req diff types
- first kisses: a little unsure, a little nervous. lips lingering over each other but not touching. overthinking, almost pulling away, but then looking into their eyes and just going for it. it’s soft, gentle.
- “i need you now” kisses: them fisting your shirt into their palms, your hands under their shirt, cold fingertips against their skin, and panting, moving down from their lips to their neck, soft moans that turn louder, shirts being pulled off haphazardly
- “come back to bed” kisses: tugging on their hand when they get up, pulling them in, them slowly waking toward you and lean in, a soft peck on their jaw while you whisper the words
- “are you sure about this?” kisses: pulling away from the kiss, their hair is in a mess and cheeks are red, lips slightly parted and longing eyes, waiting for what’s going to happen next, god they look so pretty
- “ just fuck me already” kisses: hands in their hair, tugging slightly, heated and breathless, grabbing their clothing to pull them closer, but it’s still not close enough, ending up on the bed, hovering on top of them and kissing their jaw, going down to their neck and their whimpers are so cute
- “can we do this forever?” kisses: getting pulled by your collar/tie, slightly surprised, but smirking too, “i love you” “i know” rolling eyes, “i love you too” and putting your arms around their waist, leaning in again
- “maybe, in another life” kisses: knowing that this is the last time you’re going to kiss them, and making it count. pulling them in and then away. parting, your lips lingering for more.

Why MLB is slowly failing and how I would fix that
First of all I haven't seen much of the recent episodes, but I have seen plenty of shares of bs because I have been following it since airing.
- Thomas loves to put labels on his fans when they give him criticism so now I am labeling him as the main culprit for the failure and hot garbage that his show is becoming.
- The premise is gone, there isn't a singular idea that this show tries to show. I can't describe the newer seasons with one sentence. ( Or a lot for that matter)
- The main premise of this show was that Marinette was an ordinary girl that had to fight between her two lives. Which would prevail was the main question.
- Now it's just... Nothing. Thomas completely destroyed every single redeemable quality of this show because he is so overly emotionally invested that he became blind.
- If I was writing it, I would still have a singular premise for every season first - hero Vs self, second self vs tribe, third - the breaking point, fourth - the redemption.
- Marinette's growing obsession should have been addressed way earlier.
- Adrienette and now LadyNoir have literally no personal boundaries, no respect, no understanding of each other. It's an idealised fantasy.
- If it was me I would use Alya as foreshadowing that what Marinette is doing is not right. Then I would take a secondary character which would be unexpected like Juleka. She doesn't speak often so the audience would listen to her words better. Same for Marinette.
- I would make Marinette question whether or not she actually likes Adrien or does she do all that because of lack of self and self-fulfilment.
- I would make Marinette start more self reflecting even getting away from Adrien not only to build up the suspense but also make people believe that she is truly questioning and realising
- Adrien desperately needs a suspenseful moment where he truly chooses who he wants to be and what is important for him.
- I would make also him question who he is and what he wants. Does he want to still be a model? Is satisfying his overly strict father satisfying him.
- I would make Adrien run away from his home to get more freedom, not only physical but of thought. He literally has a beat friend with a good home - easiest way to build a suspense and to make such a decision more meaningful
- My god THEY ARE LITERALLY ALL TEENAGERS, make them act like it. They act like 12 y.o children. Make Adrien try to oppose his father, to actually have option of his own wants, dreams of his own. Personality even.
- Chloe had the amazing opportunity to defy stereotypes BUT THOMAS IS TOO FAR IN HIS OWN PRIDE TO ADMIT HIS WRITING ISN'T ON PAR ANYMORE
- I wouls make her father have a new lover so Chloe could feel left out and maybe try to do some bad things to his new lover but ending up in guilt and rethinking whether or not all that bs with tricks and manipulating is even worth it.
- What does Chloe like, what does she want to pursue, what are her passions? I would make Chloe realise that she is really insecure and secretly want to be more like Marinette - with stable family, hobbies and friends who she doesn't force to be with her.
- And probably make her redemption visible through her hobbies - wanting to be a biker or helping people, a gardener or anything showing an ounce of personality really.
