Looking through the Under the Red Hood tag it occurs to me…why is everybody so upset that Jason Todd dies? For god’s sake he was put to death in the comics through a vote from the fans. He was a brat. I’m glad Joker beat him to a...

Underneath the cut, Homestuck gender feels. AKA: there are characters I do not read as cis and I don’t give a damn if you don’t like it. Warning, there’s a bit of internalised cissexism and binarism here. I’ve mentioned some of this in my Herostuck rambling, but I never really got into it, so! Sollux is bigender. Sometimes he’s male, sometimes he’s agender....

I went on my first job interview yesterday! I think it went pretty well. She’ll call me if she wants me for a second interview, so fingers crossed. Its clerical work for a moving company.
I’m also looking into tutoring jobs. It’s something I did in high school, and I really would like to do it again.
I finally started some actual prose for Ragtag! I can post the scene when...

plus, with the depth that jasons early life has never been given, how crushingly depressing would the scene be where jason is waiting for his dad to come home and he never does
its like, bruces parents dying is sad, and dicks parents too, but weve seen those scenes a hundred times
these would be brand new wounds
Oh my gosh yes. ;_; It’s a very different sort of grief,...
Anonymous asked: I feel like you've mentioned it before but I can't find it - did you write/find a fic where Babs adopts Cass? Can you relink it, please? Thank you!

silveronthetree asked: Ah, I hadn't heard of the cat breed. I assumed you'd named her after a Bengal tiger. I'm not the best person to comment on whether it is appropriative or not (I'm a different kind of South Asian) but it made me uncomfortable enough that I couldn't continue reading the story because my first association with the word (without a modifier) is the geographic region and the...
fyeahlilbitoeverything asked: Sin was fabulous and I miss her but there was so much orientalism in BOP, in hindsight, which makes me sad. I didn't even realize it until we got to White Canary and I realized how much it bothered me (especially in light of the entire team being milky white people).
wholelottadicks asked: why do you think they were born in detroit?
fyeahlilbitoeverything asked: Which is kinda how I hate the way most modern writers try to exoticize her to a ridiculous degree. SHE'S FROM DETROIT DAMMIT.
wholelottadicks asked: carolyn?
bodyfleur asked: In regards to Lady Shiva, it's passable because classically Hinduism spread from modern day Afghanistan through South East Asia and down into Indonesia. The largest Vishnu temple in the world is Angkor Wat which is in Cambodia. Since Lady Shiva doesn't have a real country of origin, it's likely she came from an area that practiced a form of Hinduism, though why she would be named...
silveronthetree asked: Hey, I just started to read your last story and I was a disconcerted when you chose to name Catgirl!Cass Bengal, because as far as I know she doesn't have any Bangladeshi or Indian Bengali heritage. I was wondering why you chose that name and if it has any significance that I'm not aware of?

Regarding his treatment of female costars: Kiera Knightly didn’t want him spanking her during one of their scenes in a film & said so while tied up; in reply he said “Keira, you’re tied to a bed.

I would do the “guess my top five ship” meme but I have know idea what they actually are.
I mean, Babs/Dinah is always gonna be on there, but otherwise - I have a lot of favourite ships and I’m not very good at ranking things. And what I have the most feelings about right now won’t be the same thing I’m so intense about a week from now.
It really depends on what...

Shit that is not sexist re: Irene’s portrayal in Sherlock:
She is a sexual person
She is a sex worker
She is gay/a lesbian
She is not 100% perfect 100% of the time
She does not do literally every single thing on her own
Shit that is just generally not automatically sexist:
A woman losing
A woman needing to be helped/saved
A woman being emotional, vulnerable, etc.
Shit that is...

Hey, Guess What
fyeahlilbitoeverything:
Yes Batwing has a book.
No that’s not why Stephanie Brown doesn’t have one, so STOP.
I can’t believe this is going on 6 months down the line.
What.
If we’re going this route how about we complain about Bruce’s three books instead of one of the few POC-led titles?
The representation Stephanie gives is not more powerful or important than David’s.

Cass Cain gets it pretty bad sometimes. Super pale skin and blue or green eyes.

Neutrois.me: Top Surgery - Analyzing Results →
neutrois:
Before my top surgery I did lots of research. It mostly consisted of browsing piles of pictures of people’s chests, picking apart the subtle nuances of each, and drawing conclusions to ultimately inform my decision. I get quite a few requests to share my thought process for analyzing these results.
Hopefully you’ll take away something useful.

cleromancy asked: plus like, what you personally can handle isn't what every other marginalized psn can handle too, like certain things may hit one person harder? it's not like all marginalized people have one mind and one agreement on what they can get enjoyment out of and what hurts too much, it varies from person to person.
