Misogyny Hydra tweet:
A screenshot of a tweet by @SailorPortia that reads: "Attempting to slay the "why m/m is more popular than f/f" hydra with my "it's misogyny" sword but every time I cut off one excuse two more take its place"

You are always a delight to see in my feeds, and this is my very stupid (affectionate), very round (also affectionate) cat stealing my wife's desk chair:
A chubby tan and gray cat curled up upside-down on a purple-covered office chair. She looks very smug.

The "then perish" meme, which is just an extremely close crop of Barack Obama giving an arch, sidelong glance, all tinted orange.

The (distant) second worst is just symptomatic of my previously-detailed gripe with the fashion of the film overall (especially for the female nobility), and it's this arm seam right here, which makes the whole dress look cheap (imo):
Jessica of House Atreides, in a gauzy blue dress. The translucent blue sleeve has a seam running down the outside of the arm, which I have indicated with a red arrow.

I have found more fic from The Beforetimes. All of this is 25+ years old, god bless.
A pile of 5 spiral bound notebooks with red and black covers.

Also found in storage, a sketch of An Plot Bunny (it only looks cute and harmless, it has a plethora of teeth and is INSATIABLE):
A simple cartoon doodle of what looks like a puffball with long ears, innocent eyes, and a small rabbit nose.

The entire last ep of the bear is like one long therapeutic argument scene. It starts with Syd and Carm, and then Richie shows up and my brain automatically went to this tweet:
A tweet by HeronChe that reads: "Why are threesomes only for sex why can't I join in on a couples argument if I want to".

Stuck in the basement for a tornado warning and found MY FIRST FANFIC (which I hand-wrote in a notebook before I had the internet and knew fanfic was a thing that other people did):
A purple composition notebook with stickers and white-out patches, and its edges reinforced by purple duct tape. The title is "Star Wars: Legacies."

Oh my GOD imagine the BG in veils like THIS, holy shit
A model walking down a runway in a long semi-sheet taupe gown, with a veil that covers her face, drapes down over her arms, and falls to the floor. A model walking down a runway in a long gown made of crinkled shiny bronze fabric. A whirlwind of the same fabric covers her face and makes a loop that drapes over her shoulder and hangs below her hips. Her arms are bare. A model walking down a runway in an ivory gown, a large cowl framing her shoulders and the back of her head. Her head and neck are covered by close-fitting fabric encrusted with beadwork, and her arms are covered by matching detached sleeves.

A meme of an older woman with a walker being helped by a younger woman. Text reads: "When I first started reading fanfic online, #k referred to kilobytes not word count!" "Sure grandma, let's get you back to betaing."

I mean, ACAB, but still:
A photo of Admiral William Adama from Battlestar Galactica, with his quote "There's a reason you separate military and the police. One fights the enemies of the state. The other serves and protects the people. When the military becomes both, then the enemies of the state tend to become the people."

If you see this, I implore you to post a picture from whatever device you're using with no explanation.

Tracy Ifeachor (Dr Collins on The Pitt) is so gorgeous she looks like she should be playing some ethereal elf queen.

Holy shit, it's like seeing the Tumblr version of a unicorn:
The subsequent reply by jupiters-shortest-martian that says "@saathi1013 Thats a fair response. I probably could have been more mindful of the content of the post and where i was talking about my opinion. I should have been more considerate"

I posted about how seeing constant negativity towards female characters in daredevil is a constant bummer and SOMEBODY TRIED IT:
A screenshot of an exchange in Tumblr comments where jupiters-shortest-martian says "I dont know much about the new daredevil but for the og show, ngl i feel like the elektra hate is warranted. I dont like her personally (love the other female side characters, just not her) because shes an antagonistic character. She is really bad for matt, challenges his values and manipulates him. Yes it is his fault too but she convinces and manipulates him into leaving foggy in very precarious situations with the punisher trial and just causes tension and conflict." And I reply: "Hey fun fact: you can see a post about someone not liking seeing negativity about female characters and NOT use it as a reason to defend and detail your negative feelings about a female character in replies to that post! It's free! You should try it!"
