It is not lost on me that Charlie and Vaggie were initially not doing great against Adam and Lute...and then proved Carmilla was so fucking right.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Vaggie is absolutely FUCKED here. She's been in this position before, with Lute looming over her spitting vitriolic judgment, Vaggie's blood on the ground. Back then, she couldn't stop Lute from taking away her wings, her eye, her home, and her purpose. But now? She has more than that; she has love, because she has Charlie.
When Lute threatens Charlie, everything changes. Vaggie fucks her up immediately...and shows "mercy" knowing that being forced to live with part of herself gone (her arm was CRUSHED, no way was she getting it back), the shame of defeat, and the knowledge that someone she's been looking down on so completely is responsible for it all is a fate MUCH worse than death for Lute.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
And Charlie? Charlie's insanely powerful but has no clue how to use her power to its full potential because she's never had a reason or desire to fight until now. Even when she's being strangled, when she's pissed-off and vengeful, she can't really tap into that power. But then Adam comes at her dad and is about to catch him off-guard.
He's about to hurt—possibly kill—her dad, who she's finally building a good relationship with; her dad, who just showed up to protect her despite the risk of politically turning this battle from an act of defiance by a willful princess to an act of full-on rebellion by the King of Hell himself. She reacts on instinct to protect her father and stops a hit that destroyed Alastor's shield. And she does it effortlessly.
Carmilla was right. For these ladies, at least, the need to protect someone they love, no matter what kind of love it is, is exactly what rallies them to come at enemies who were just kicking their asses and absolutely dominate.

The thing that gets me the most about intersexism is the fact that... it doesn't matter how many intersex people there are - no matter if they are as common as redheadheaded people or anybody else - when the intersexist sees human bodies and their states as a inherently a political battle, an agenda to be "won," the intersex body will always be an "anomaly," something crude and unnatural, regardless of how oxymoronic the "unnatural natural body" is.

I am a little surprised by how little I have heard about the Egwene, Siuan and Leane trio in fandom?
In comparison to the Wonder girls, who spent two books and a half together in total, and a non-negligeable part of that time is fraught with tension, the Salidar trio spent four books together (counting WH and CoT as one) and their close collaboration is more or less what is driving the WT narrative at this point.
I enjoy the chaos brought by the Wonder girls, but I can't help feeling a little cheated I never saw the Salidar trio mentioned as a selling point for the books, because hell yeah a trio of master spies leading a rebellion is actually really compelling to me too.

I think, probably more than is reasonable, about the All-Eras Doctors and Companions TARDIS Band. They basically have to play some kind of folk-rock, because they have a bagpiper and an electric guitarist and a guy who plays the spoons and that kind of limits your genre options. Fitz probably at least knows a little early Folk Revival stuff, so that's all right. There's possibly Eight on violin as well as Two struggling along on recorder, bless him. If they have a singer it's probably Six. I am not sure his style of singing 100% blends with the rest of it, but oh well. They could use a little more percussion but I can't think of any drummers.
Unfortunately I think I probably really like their music. It sounds like my kind of thing.

sometimes i ship characters cuz i think they’d be cute/funny/interesting/dramatic together. sometimes it’s because i want to see myself and the kinds of relationships that i have represented onscreen, especially as a queer person who grew up without that opportunity.
but with laudna and imogen from the start i shipped them because i *already saw* myself onscreen. the intense closeness. the platonic relationship with this unspoken added depth. the feeling of “yes we’re friends but that word somehow falls short.” this added dimension that everyone else could see. the clutching each other in a world that’s against you both, that seems to not want you. regardless of where it came from or how it played out it was, as a queer person, all wildly familiar.
it’s been a joy seeing that turn into “oh god do i have feelings for her? is it okay for me to have feelings for her, especially right now? i shouldn’t say anything because she’s already dealing with so much. she probably doesn’t see me that way anyway. but god i want to tell her.” and many other feelings and sentiments i’ve experienced many times in my life. but even if it hadn’t, if it had stayed a very deep and intense platonic love, i still would’ve seen myself in them in a way i too rarely do in art/media and i think that’s a big part of why they’ve always stood out to me

I love Boss’s Duke Nukem isms she’s great. Fail lesbian. Give her a fucking rocket launcher why not.
Boss is a very intelligent woman with a very normal amount of anger inside of her and she can be trusted with powerful weapons. Promise. Ignore the giant hole in the living room wall.

Israel's war against Gaza Strip hospitals!
🔸 The spokesperson for the Palestinian Ministry of Health, Ashraf Al-Qidra:
🔻The intensive care and children's departments, as well as the oxygen machines, have stopped functioning. We have lost a patient in the intensive care unit and another patient in the care department. Now, patients in these two departments are threatened with death at any moment due to the intensity of the fire inside the hospital.
Tumblr media
🔸The Director-General of the Ministry of Health in Gaza to Al Jazeera:
🔻The occupation is encircling Al-Shifa Medical Complex from all sides.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
🔸Journalist inside Al-Shifa Hospital to Al Jazeera /The only journalist remaining in Al-Shifa Hospital, journalist Mustafa Sarsour:
🔻Some of the displaced people tried to flee the [Medical] Complex after it was bombed, but they were shot at by the occupation forces.
🔻One third of those inside the Complex are children.
🔻The fire next to the kidney department within the Complex is still raging.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
🔸 Palestinian Minister of Health:
🔻39 premature infants in Al-Shifa Medical Complex are at risk of dying at any moment. One of them ascended [to martyrdom] this morning. Failure to supply fuel to hospitals will effectively be a death sentence for the rest.
🔻The incubators will only be able to function until this evening, after which the fuel will run out.
Tumblr media
🔸Director General of Hospitals in Gaza:
🔻We are in talks with the Red Cross to bring some fuel into the hospitals, but they informed us that the occupation forces have refused.
Tumblr media
🔸Palestinian Health Minister Dr. Mai Al-Kaila:
🔻Shame on all treaties and international laws that cannot protect a hospital from bombing and aggression, nor can they stop the "israeli" machinery of destruction and killing against hospitals, doctors, patients, the wounded, civilians, and displaced people.
🔻What is happening now to hospitals is a decision to kill those inside them. Wounded people are dying due to the lack of fuel and medical supplies, as surgical operations are conducted without anesthesia and without electricity, using the light from mobile phones.
🔻The catastrophe occurring in Gaza now is unprecedented in Palestinian and world history. Hospitals are besieged and bombed, killing patients, medical staff, and displaced people in sight of the entire world.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
🔸Director of Al-Shifa Hospital to Al-Jazeera:
🔻Hours separate us from death, and the world watches us dying. We are not just numbers.
🔻The hospital going out of service will be a real disaster, and we call on the world to act to save the patients and the displaced.
🔻The bodies of the martyrs are piled up, and we will try to bury them inside the hospital.
🔻[The occupation] targeted the intensive care unit and injured those who are already wounded.
🔻We have no water, no food, no electricity, no internet, and we have become completely isolated from the world.

I’m not sure what irritates me the most about this book:
“socks can be easily modified for a perfect fit”
“creating a sock is a magical experience”
insinuating that women during WWI were largely constrained in war work to knitting and that they knit because they “were forbidden to bear” arms.
