Local woman discovers she has trapped herself in an unbreakable yuri square with her archnemesis by dating each other's best friends. Dozens injured, four dead
God I love “We’re enemies, but we’ve been enemies for a long time, which is sort of like being friends.” Great trope.
ppl will post butch positivity with like 5 allusions to transmasculitity (binding, t, top surgery, etc) and 0 mentions of transfem butches
i love you butches on estrogen! i love you butches who feel caught between expressing yourself as a woman and as a butch because of transmisogyny! i love you butches who want/have bottom surgery! i love you butches who don’t! i love you butches who feel like butch is your gender and i love you butches who feel like butch is your sexuality!
i love you transfem butches! i love you trans women butches! i love you butches!
look I know it’s supposed to be a joke but that “irradiated wasteland” is the unceded homeland of the Paiute and Shoshone peoples and consists of fragile Mojave and Great Basin desert ecosystems that are actively being exploited and destroyed by mining interests who utilize the perception of desert as wasteland to justify their destruction of indigenous lands and communities. the joke's not funny. fuck off with this.
also, as to the "irridiated" part of this - here's an article by High Country News on cancer clusters in indigenous communities in the Southwest resulting from nuclear tests at the Nevada Test Site (itself located on the ancestral homeland of the Western Shoshone and Southern Paiute) and the US government's continuing failure to compensate affected families. it's a horrific crime that the US government committed against its own citizens and the joke's not fucking funny.
wasn’t expecting this to take off but shoutout to the Australians in the notes - getting fed up with this kind of shitty rhetoric about desert landscapes and erasure of the indigenous peoples that have lived in them for millennia is Australian-Southwestern US solidarity

I live for Hades’s forced compliments.
i gotta remember this
i actually can't fucking believe this,
something incredibly American about an Allied trooper yelling brand names at Soviets until they recognize him as an ally.
imagine how much more fucked up the history of the world would be if eating someone's brains reliably conferred on you their memory and knowledge
my own daughter is cheating on me with another biologist. guess i have to "beat up her father" to "cope".

Zosan Omegaverse AU: "Marked"
This one got a little away from me lol The concept I wanted was two parts. I want a mark that doesn't go away on Sanji after he's hit by Zoro in Thriller bark. And I want omega healing bc I love that shit lol
Meanwhile on Kuraigana Island:
So if its not clear.....Zoro hits Sanji to knock him out. At the same time they already were bonding but didn't know it. Zoro's knockout(tm) starts the process, Sanji's healing seals the deal. And bc we know how THEY ARE with each other...the mark that normally would have gone away never heals.
Does it heal when they meet back up? Is Sanji able to come to terms with Zoro saving his life AND marking him as a mate? Will Zoro ever figure out what he did? Your guess is as good as mine bc I havne't written that far LOL
