See the thing is that performing femininity DOES empower women. Most women are very aware that they are treated better when they wear makeup and dress femininely. But no man is afraid of eyeliner “sharp enough to kill a man”. No woman ever got a job over a man because she was wearing heels and he wasn’t. But women have lost opportunities and been treated like shit for not doing those things.
Female empowerment through performing femininity does not give women power over men. It gives women power over other women. That fucking sucks.

Things on my grandpa’s dirt road farm that was actually pretty creepy in hindsight

There was always a specific spot where anything mechanical would shut down. Cars would stall and a four wheeler would cut off
A graveyard that didn’t belong to our family sat beside the home. We don’t know the names on the gravestones
There was a skeleton in the forest. We don’t know who passed there
A home at the beginning of the road burned down but the chimney remained. I swear we could see smoke coming from it sometimes
There were figures in the wheat fields sometimes but they were too far away to see. Grandpa said they were neighbors and we should never talk to them
My great grandmas house sits next to my grandpa’s, abandoned, and we were told to never go in there
Sometimes at night when I couldn’t sleep, I could hear the sound of clacking coming down the road
Grandpa’s Farm Gothic
This is just American Gothic

Father uses sons’ drawings as inspiration for anime transformations
By: Thomas Romain (twitter | instagram | youtube | patreon)
Wholesome and badass
The father’s artistic talent is clearly on display here, but I’m actually really impressed with this kid’s wild imagination. Many of his drawings are both conceptually unique and coherent.

(white) people on my aou post: aou isn’t that bad, what about ragnarok???
me: i don’t? understand? what the fuck? you mean?
oh we’re still doing this “ragnarok made thor and loki look stupid” thing
things ragnarok did:
- reinvent thor as being a more relatable and fun character with a far more extensive power set as well as making him the star of his own goddamn movie for once without worry about some other character overshadowing him and established that his arcs from the first two movies were realized in the form of him assuming control of his powers on odin’s level – asserting his ultimate worthiness
- introduce valkyrie
- give heimdall more than two minutes of screentime
- destroy asgard
- reintroduce hulk with the ability to speak and show emotion beyond smashing things
- fuck colonialist lives! korg is skinny!
- contain good and funny jokes
- was directed by the mcu’s first director of color
- fix loki’s sad broody boy problem
- make fun of thor: the dark world
ragnarok is one of the best marvel movies for the “prisoners with jobs” joke alone, fuck y’all, unclench
