I wanted to know what the show was about so I went into the Hannibal tag.
Who would watch a sitcom about a gay cannibal?
AnonymousI really enjoyed the fact that she DIDN’t have a name. Everyone can make their own AU with Bering and Wells kids but no one is ever going to completely agree on a single name for Ory’s character, so why do we need it? This way she’s all of ours.
I don’t know, you’re at least as responsible for her as I am, but I thought it would be nice to have a quick and dirty way to refer to her just in case someone doesn’t want to stay on the nameless thing. It’s just what I would call her if I was writing a fic.
Detective Comics 517
After Lady Viper turned her into a snake-woman, Babs had to wear a hot-pants variation of her costume, in case she transformed again.
I slightly suspect this is the entire reason the story was written.
That is the most unsexy sexy thing I have ever seen.
Brr. It’s awful.
On the plus side, now Batgirl is ready to serve on the USS Enterprise.
Okay, I kinda invented this whole thing of Meghan Ory being the Bering and Wells gayby, so here’s my stab at naming her character. Mary Shelley Bering-Wells, named after the inventor of science fiction and literary pioneer Mary Shelley, a woman who both Myka and HG greatly admire. Myka for her contributions to the field of literature, and HG for her help in destroying the tomb of Dracula once and for all.
And in response…
Look, I don’t like to argue on the internet, because it’s kind of like being an executive at the SyFy Channel. No matter what your position is, you’re an idiot. But just this once…
LET.
ME.
EXPLAIN.
YOU.
A.
THING.
This thing you’re doing right now is called anecdotal evidence. It has about as much relevance to the discussion as saying my mother wears Army boots. That is not even the issue, though! The issue is, to use a metaphor, that you’re coming into a discussion about police harassment of African-Americans and talking about the time you got mugged by a black guy. Not only is it irrelevant, but it comes off as really weird and defensive. Like, what is even the endgame here? Do you want me to say “Yeah, you’re right, black people suck”?
And right now you’re thinking that’s different, but it’s not. The discussion, as minor as it is, is over how annoying it is when certain guys perpetuate a certain behavior of expecting sex for behaving like human beings and that for women, not being attracted to them is some kind of offensive action. And this silly, Han Solo-based post critiquing that has gotten two thousand notes already. But you—lonesome little you—are coming in and saying that’s not a problem. It’s just a little tiny thing, a fact of life, like getting a phone call when you’re on the can, and meanwhile your problem is GARGANTUAN and ENORMOUS and just this huge, vagina-based INJUSTICE!
It’s just not very attractive.
I sent you an ask
I’m literally so sleep deprived I hit the ask instead of the submit.
Wanna know why I’m sleep deprived? A friend of mine is spending the night at my place, because his now-ex gf left on friday (3 days ago), saying she was going to go apply for jobs. She apparently decided, instead, to do large quantities of LSD and, out of personal conjecture, cheat on him with their drug dealer.
So please stop assuming that every man who has an issue with a female is a self-victimizing prick, because it just causes you to perpetuate the stereotype that pisses the people that piss you off, off.
If that’s a bit too much of a grammatical braintwister for you, try;
A small percentage of males and females are douchebags. Not all males are douchebags. Not all females are douchebags. Stop making assumptions.
