I'm not a huge fan of genderswapped stuff, but I also prefer that both people in the pairing are swapped.

Re: I had a thought:

[forgottenjester]

Seems just as complicated as over here but in a completely different way.

[lex_antonia]

The oh-so-popular reverse test doesn't always work, you know. Some statements come with institutional power behind them, others don't.

Re: Spelling "women" as "womxn."

[chardmonster]

It's an upper level class!

I also grade their term papers and finals!

I present at professional academic conferences to excellent reviews!

Re: Tell me what you like about yourself, FS

[forgottenjester]

Both.

Re: IT'S MARDI GRAS!

You made me LOL, gobsmacked cat. I forgive you for the worm.

Re: Spelling "women" as "womxn."

As it is it sounds like a colloquial name for a non-severe infection. "Yeah, I can't come into the office today. I've got womb-moon."

[(Anonymous)]

That fanart is no different from a written product in that regard and therefore the "supply issue" doesn't exist as a game changing factor?

Re: Spelling "women" as "womxn."

[chardmonster]

Really? I've seen womyn and wimmin but not this, and I thought I'd seen it all.

[(Anonymous)]

Oh spare us. The whole idea that the only valid creative work is that which is done without thought of reward--that's complete, unmitigated guff.

[elaminator]

We've all been there at some point! (It doesn't happen to me often, but yea, when it does its distracting as hell.)

Re: Spelling "women" as "womxn."

[chardmonster]

Hey, I didn't "mark it down." Person got an A. I just circled it like a typo.

Re: hope this helps

[forgottenjester]

Eevee. Slowking. Whirlipede.

[(Anonymous)]

SA

Nor the physical copy one.

Re: WELP.

Happy Birthday, Mr. Herpy McDerpy President - happy birthday to yoooouuuu!

Muah! *kisses*

Re: I had a thought:

[caerbannog]

I like them! But could it be on a weekend if it becomes a thing?

Re: I had a thought:

[rubbertea]

Sounds interesting. There are so many things about America that confuse me, I could use a little help understanding what is going on over there.

I can answer questions about France if anyone has any.

Re: I had a thought:

[rubbertea]

Nope, no cookies for us :(

[chardmonster]

TO DIE

Re: Spelling "women" as "womxn."

[caerbannog]

Hah fair enough! For some reason I missed this was for a class and thought you meant editing/proof reading.

On reflection, in this case, I don't buy the whitewashing argument at all, and frankly it strikes me as ignorant of the history of the character.

Yes, Godzilla originally bore some serious metaphoric weight as a manifestation of postwar Japanese atomic fears. That was the first movie. Of dozens.

Later, he became a more ambiguous figure in subsequent movies, like in Destroy All Monsters when he teamed up with Rodan and Mothra to fight Ghidorah, and then he became a flat-out hero when he fought enemies like Mechagodzilla or Hedorah. (Indeed, Godzilla vs. Hedorah is a Godzilla movie about the dangers of environmental neglect and pollution, so there's precedent for that too.)

The character of Godzilla has served a VARIETY of purposes over his history, and frankly, it's a little pathetic of American activists to ignore all the work put in by Toho in favor of freezing the character at a single point that happens to push their white-guilt buttons. You do not get social justice points for ignoring what Japanese artists have actually done, just because it doesn't fit a narrative you find convenient.

TL;DR: Don't lecture people on what Godzilla is "really" about if you don't actually know very much about Godzilla.

Re: I had a thought:

[making_excuses]

Two people who are not friends don't really do the going for coffee thing either. We spend time with people we know and they might know someone who knows someone.

Before going out to the town we spend time at a friends flat/house and random people you might not know are invited there so mix alcohol and you get to know a new person, or so quite often you might have had sex with someone without knowing much about them then getting to know them better afterwards.

So we get to know each other with alcohol or just soberly at school/work.

the link is a lot better at explaining this part than I am tbh

[(Anonymous)]

Yes, exactly this.

Re: Spelling "women" as "womxn."

[(Anonymous)]

Reading the whole post as Salem is a thing of beauty.

Re: I had a thought:

[making_excuses]

Cool.

Nope, but we have something similar. but it isn't gender specific and mostly done through schools
