My Standard For Future Lesbian Media Is Kinda Set By The Chainsaw Man Dyke With Four Demon Girlfriends

Valyrian attitudes toward women

Thinking about what we know about Valyrian gender roles;

It seems to have been more normalized for women to take more martial roles - both of the Conqueror's sisters, even Rhaenys who Is described by the histories as less martial, rode dragons into battle.

Valyrian inheritance practices seem to have favored men over women. Aegon I inherited Dragonstone over his sister Visenya, despite the fact she was older than him.

So in general it doesn't seem that Valyria was that much different from their Andal counterparts as far as we are aware, hang-ups amount women in battle non-withstanding.

(Nor would it make sense for the eugenist slavocracy to have particularly progressive opinions on women anyway)

And even then I'd guess valyrian tolerance to women actively taking part in battles only extends to highborn, dragon-riding aristocrats.

Ambessa truly is both the fox and the wolf

We got to see a bit of her more brutal "wolf" side in season one and now in season two, we get to see her "foxy" self-orchestrating events in Zaun and Piltover for her own benefit.

Double-crossing Salo and naming Caitlyn the commander of Piltover was an extremely smart move. Salo is a crippled man with no fighting experience at all; I bet he would command ZERO respect from the Enforcers and the topside elite would quickly figure out how much of a puppet the guy is.

Caitlyn is from a distinguished patrician family so we see how quickly the elite accepts her

And further, she is clever and clearly has the respect of the Enforcers given how quickly they started clapping with the Noxian soldiers.

And, despite all that and how qualified she is, Caitlyn is also young and grieving which makes her vulnerable to the manipulation of an older, more experienced woman.

This echoes a bit of that scene in season 1 in which Mel also tries to set up a puppet ruler on her childhood flashback. Ambessa is doing a similar thing but in a "harsher" way fitting her more militant nature.

wanted to doodle Teoh with long hair in Winterfell

Watching TYBW and Ichigo saying Riruka is too weak to fight the quincies was kinda funny like bro you brought Ganju 😭

Arcane S2 asking the real brave questions such as: catholic yaoi or fascist yuri

I really like how Yuji and Sukuna's dynamics in last week's chapter were basically an inversion of their talk in chapter 212:

Sukuna, who measures worthiness solely by strength, thinks the lives of the weak are worthless. He feels nothing about those he tramples over and his sheer lack of humanity enrages Yuji.

On chapter 265 its Yuji who enrages Sukuna by showing him true compassion

After Sukuna spent most of the series being this unstoppable force almost beyond comprehension it feels really cathartic that Yuji can rattle him this much.

Of all the characters in JJK, Yuji is the only one who can truly challenge Sukuna's philosophy.

Having completely normal thoughts about Dune Part Two.

This is all made sadder by the unironic out-of-universe hate my poor girl gets for not being a grizzled politician at the grand age of *checks notes* twelve.

There’s something so poetically evil about Sansa embodying everything the realm wants a proper lady to be and then them all hating her for it. She cares about knights and songs, sewing and pretty dresses. And she’s scorned for it, naïve little girl who isn’t equipped to deal with the horrors of life. Because they don’t prepare women for the horrors of life despite the fact that they have to live in the same reality as all of the terrible deeds. Sansa embodies everything a young lady is supposed to and it ruins her life. The same way women are meant to bear heirs but they don’t tell them beforehand how it happens. It’s this sick fetishization of an ideal of women that they can never truly achieve because life isn’t ideal. Sansa is the picture of what they want women to be and it can never be enough still.
