Trans-inclusive language in religious texts is SO IMPORTANT. There is nothing in some young people’s lives that can either validate or dehumanize them so quickly as how they see themselves represented in the words of their religion.
May all who need to see these words find them.

Y'all, the world is sleeping on what NASA just pulled off with Voyager 1
The probe has been sending gibberish science data back to Earth, and scientists feared it was just the probe finally dying. You know, after working for 50 GODDAMN YEARS and LEAVING THE GODDAMN SOLAR SYSTEM and STILL CHURNING OUT GODDAMN DATA.
So they analyzed the gibberish and realized that in it was a total readout of EVERYTHING ON THE PROBE. Data, the programming, hardware specs and status, everything. They realized that one of the chips was malfunctioning.
So what do you do when your probe is 22 Billion km away and needs a fix? Why, you just REPROGRAM THAT ENTIRE GODDAMN THING. Told it to avoid the bad chip, store the data elsewhere.
Sent the new code on April 18th. Got a response on April 20th - yeah, it's so far away that it took that long just to transmit.
And the probe is working again.
From a programmer's perspective, that may be the most fucking impressive thing I have ever heard.

Internet mobs will be like "why doesnt anyone just ADMIT when theyre WRONG anymore??!!" and then treat someone like they deserve the death penalty because they said something off-colour on twitter when they were 14
No one will admit that they were wrong if you treat being wrong like its an eternal indictment against them with no chance for rehabilitation

I am feeling very vindicated in my porter post tonight after watching both Gorgug and Fig give him positive reviews.
Like dude's a dick but he also is probably one of the better teachers at the school.
I am also outright laughing at fig still being suspicious of him and literally putting it in the comments.
This absolutely why i think porter is a red herring. Its so much funnier if he's not simply because Emily will not give up on her theory that he is evil.

Genuinely, I don’t know how else to get the word out, but I feel like if your home-cooked dinners don’t taste right, you're missing either paprika, sugar, butter, or chicken bouillon.

Hey artists, C. Spike Trotman, founder of Iron Circus Comics, just posted an invaluable thread on depicting different types of black hair. I’d do the thing where you screencap the whole thread and post it but it’s just too long (which is great because it’s a whole lot of useful information!) Give her a follow while you’re there.
Anyway, go check it out. I just wanted to save it and share it because I didn’t know how much I didn’t know!

I think I've finally put my finger on what bothers me about the way a lot of people in fandom talk about canon f/f
They talk about it like a consolation prize for not getting canon m/m. Like m/m is the one that is more real, but sometimes canon creators toss some f/f in there to act like they're progressive.
It's really dismissive and it's really frustrating and I don't even think most people who act like this realize this is what they're doing.

Its finally time: Porter Cliffbreaker FHJY's red herring but not how you think theory
Heya everyone after rewatching episode 15 FHJY multiple times and with only 5 episodes left i think its time to present my theory about the man the myth the legend Porter Cliffbreaker. Especially because I think he's a red herring for FHJY but not in the way most people think
Potential spoilers below for people blow the read more if you aren't caught up yet:
Ok, my big theory is he is not the Big Bad of the year but he is in fact trying to revive ankarna but in a good way.
Consider that some of his decisions and actions in the series were annoying, controversial, or just mean the series is priming us to think at first that he's either a dick. i mean making gorgug suffer without an MCAT, requiing another student to join his class to help, not letting fig be a paaldin of casandra its all suspicious. NTM the whole spies tongue curse stuff where people pointed out ragh saw kalina talk with jace and porter. Its all pointing to an evil mastermind right?
WRONG. He's meant to look like the bad guy.
Th simple fact is for as much frustration as it caused Porter did help gorgug figure out his rage and reiterated something that kristan said to cassandra when she was taken over by the rage crystals, rage isn't evil. Its tool and its healthy at times to let it off but it needs to be controlled. And in the end he did sign Gorgug's MCAT and legitamately was onboard with the barbificer multiclass.
Then there's fig! Consider that by signing her MCAT porter saved fig from academic jeopardy and helped her realize she wanted to be a paladin.
But why not let fig be Cassandra's paladin? Clearly he's trying to push her ankarna? YES he is and thats where the red herring comes in.
My theory: He's trying to help fig revive ankarna bu as the goddess of her original domain.
Consider that Port is an earth genasai from the mountains of chaos. Aka where Ankarna and her sister Ruvina originated from. Its entirely possible that there could have been leftover markers of ankarna where he grew up and he figured out she was corrupted and removed.
So he and the bad guys of the season ironically have the same idea but they want vastly different outcomes. And given that fig is trying to devote herself to ankarna and is resonating with her (the daymare, bottomless pit, the rage crystal spirit guardian) he wants the exact same outcome fig wants. Which is ironically hillarious since fig suspects him of being evil.
Long story short: Port - not evil, just kind of a dick at times but he has genuinely offered some good lessons and ultimately helped both gorgug and fig's overall academic standing so they got that extra prep time for the last stand.
If I turn out being wrong I will admittedly be sad. But its just too funny to have him not be evil and instead maybe be the BBEG in FHSY idk

So I just saw a post by a random personal blog that said “don’t follow me if we never even had a conversation before” and?????? Not to be rude but literally what the fuck??????????
I’ve had people (non-pornbots) try to strike conversation out of nowhere in my DMs recently, and now I’m wondering if they were doing that because they wanted to follow me and thought they needed to interact first. I feel compelled to say, just in case, that it’s totally okay to follow this blog (or my side blog, for that matter) even if we’ve never talked before.
Also, I’m legit confused. Is this how follow culture works right now? It was worded like it’s common sense but is that really a thing?

Ok but honestly something icnredibly potetic about fig doubting herself but finally being able to land a hit with smite
Also idc if porter is actually evil, he was totally right that cassandra wasn't meant to be fig's deity. Ankarna was meant to have someone who believes in her for being her. And fig also gets to have a fiendish goddess. Just chef's kiss.
Also bless adaine for reiterating that yes fig absolutely was meant to be a multiclass of paladin and granting her that crit.

It frightens and discourages me how pervasive "tribal" stereotypes and imagery are in the fantasy and adventure genres.
It's all over the place in classic literature. Crack open a Jules Verne novel and you're likely to find caricatures of brown people and cultures, even when the characters are sympathetic to the plight of the colonized peoples - incidentally, this is the biggest reason I can't recommend 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea to everyone, despite Captain Nemo being one of my favorite fictional characters of all time.
You can't escape it in modern cinema, either. You'll see white heroes venturing bravely into jungles and tombs to steal from natives who don't know how to use their resources "properly." You'll see them strung up in traps, riddled with sleeping darts, forced to flee and fight their way out. Hell, Pirates of the Caribbean, a remarkably inclusive franchise in many other ways, had an extended sequence of the white heroes escaping from a cannibal civilization in the second film.
And when fantasy RPGs want a humanoid enemy, the "bloodthirsty natives" are the first stock trope they jump to. World of Warcraft is one of the most egregious examples, with the trolls - blatant racist caricatures with faux-voodoo beliefs, cannibalistic diets, Jamaican accents, and a history of being killed in droves by (white) elves and humans - being raided and slaughtered in nearly every expansion.
It doesn't matter how vibrant and distinctive the real-world indigenous, Polynesian, Caribbean, and African cultures are. It doesn't matter how much potential these real civilizations offer for complex and sympathetic characterization. Anything that doesn't make sense to the white western mind is shoved under the same "savage" umbrella. They're different. They're strange. They're scary. They have to be escaped, subjugated, eliminated, ogled at from the safety of a museum.
Modern writers, directors, and developers don't even seem to realize how horrifying it is to present the indigenous inhabitants of a place as "obstacles" for non-native protagonists to overcome. "It's not racist," they say, "because these people aren't really people, you see." And if you dare to point out anything that hurts or offends you as a descendant of the bastardized culture, you're accused of being the real racist: "These aren't humans! They're monsters! Are you saying that these real societies are just like those disgusting monsters?"
No, they're not monsters. But you chose to design them as monsters, just as invaders have done for hundreds of years. Why would you do that? Why can you recognize any other caricature as evil and cruel, but not this?
This is how deep colonialism runs.
