you’d think that demons would have a lot more sympathy for the virgin sacrifices and a lot less for the guy holding both of them captive against their will
guy wearing a hooded robe and holding a tome of ancient magic: o foul demon, i have summoned you here to -
the demon, walking straight past the sacrifice and towards the guy who summoned them with murderous intent: is this guy bothering you queen?
‘i have summoned you demon!’ 'uh no you haven’t. i don’t see you bleeding out in the middle of the summoning circle’ 'then… then why are you here?’ 'SHE summoned me.’
@the-knights-who-say-book how could you leave this gem in the tags???

I went to a bookshop and I got dizzy at the amount of books on stuff like “astrological feminism” “reclaiming womanhood through numerology” and all that shit…… One was called “cosmic fanny” or for my french speakers out there, “foufoune cosmique”. I think the fight against patriarchy is going really well
“But I didn’t and still don’t like making a cult of women’s knowledge, preening ourselves on knowing things men don’t know, women’s deep irrational wisdom, women’s instinctive knowledge of Nature, and so on. All that all too often merely reinforces the masculinist idea of women as primitive and inferior – women’s knowledge as elementary, primitive, always down below at the dark roots, while men get to cultivate and own the flowers and crops that come up into the light. But why should women keep talking baby talk while men get to grow up? Why should women feel blindly while men get to think?”
Ursula K Le Guin, from What Women Know
One night we had a thrilling summer storm… We hadn’t been in the house long, and it was the first time in this house we’d had to close all the windows. In the morning I smelled gas, strong, unmistakable. “I smell gas,” I said to my husband. “I don’t smell it,” he said. He had a friend come over. “Why are you having a friend come over,” I asked, “when it doesn’t matter if he can smell it or not, and none of us can fix it?” His friend didn’t smell it, either. I called the gas company. The gas company employee didn’t smell it, either. He waved his reader around and it blasted off in three places, substantial leaks behind the stove and in the basement. “Always trust a woman’s nose,” the gas company employee said.Yes, I thought, believe us.Then, No, I thought, I’m not a fucking witch. Believe anyone who smells gas. If someone smells gas, believe them.– Jane Dykema, What I Don’t Tell My Students About “The Husband Stitch”

On this, the anniversary of the lunar landing, let us also celebrate the greatest post-mission achievement by a crewman.
I refer, of course, to the time Buzz Aldrin (age 72 at the time) cold-cocked a moon landing conspiracy theorist straight in his smug face after being accused of being a coward, liar, and thief.
Yes, someone was indeed dumb enough to tell a man so unafraid of death that he was willing to go into the void on a fragile explosive rocket, a coward.
Said dumbass was filming this confrontation as some sort of proof of moon fraud, but has instead captured this glorious moment of near-cosmic justice for us to loop for all time.
Aldrin was not charged with any crime. He should have been given another medal for public service.

On a trip to Batuu
Felt like finally drawing a variation of “Jedi Survivor Goes to Disneyland,” but as “Cal, Merrin and BD-1 go on a trip to Batuu.” I have been waiting to do another one of these “fandom goes to Disneyland” drawing things, and I finally got the chance to take some pics in Galaxy’s Edge the other day during a recent Disneyland trip.

the fact that the first female human experience barbie goes through is being self conscious and experiencing sexual harassment mirrors how growing up as a girl one day you’re okay and the next all of a sudden you feel bad about your appearance and are receiving unwanted advances is something that can be so fucking important to be recognized in film

sometimes when I’m bored, I go through the list of recent bad faith Wikipedia edits that have since been reverted. a lot of them are politically contentious/offensive topics that attract crazies and trolls in general, but sometimes there are completely innocent inoffensive articles that people attack for no reason. some guy yesterday vandalized the article on the chemical element francium

Daniel Radcliffe for sure IS a vocal trans ally and that’s in and of itself a good reason to not want to be involved in anything to do with Harry Potter. He’s done a huge amount of advocacy work and fundraising to support LGBTQ youth for most of his public life, well before Rowling came out of the transphobia closet - this fucking matters to him.
but I also think it’s worth acknowledging that although he’s pretty positive and diplomatic about his experience with the Harry Potter series, he’s been extremely clear since the last film came out that he has no interest in coming back to the role, and while it’s a bit dodgy to speculate about people’s lives here, he’s talked about how he had a pretty severe alcoholism issue towards the back end of the films, as a coping mechanism for the scrutiny that he was under. He’s said that there are big chunks of the latter films where he’s visibly still drunk. I think it’s safe to assume that Harry Potter represents a time in his life he’s not necessarily keen to revisit, and that’s also a pretty reasonable thing imo.
