kawaiidaigakusei at 12:00AM, May 2, 2022I want to talk about boobs
Tantz_Aerine at 12:00AM, April 2, 2022
There is generally a debate about how women's chests should be drawn. On and off I'll come across whole essays about how drawing women with large boobs is shorthand for sexualization and objectification. There's a lot of talk about how flat chested ladies or those of the ...
Tropes I love: The Bargain

So it's fun to rant about tropes I hate but I actually prefer to gush about tropes I love.

Usually when we think about fairies, the mind goes to tiny beautiful girls with butterfly wings and a ton of sparkles. At their most threatening, we got the token fiesty Tinkerbell.
Or do we?
For me, the world of the fae and fairies is a fascinatingly surreal, dangerous, occult world ...

Bob Saget revolutionized home videos years before they could be instantly uploaded, streamed online, and go viral. Yes, that is right, Sunday nights in the nineties meant a new episode of “America’s Funniest Home Videos”, a show where home movie enthusiasts would send recorded copies ...

So I want to talk about the Dread Persephone!
We are familiar with Persephone as the abducted bride of Hades, the floral, pastel-themed, light-hearted girl that brings about Spring and is the daughter of Demeter, goddess of nature and the harvest.
But is it really who she is?
No. No ...
Flipping off the Author

So Squid Game is a huge hit, and I'm glad I've been a kdrama fan before it was cool, apparently XD (though granted, it's been cool for a good while for a lot of people)
