so within the universe of Dune, gender roles abide by a rigid false dichotomy created by the bene gesserit - men lead the noble houses, while the women may join their order, and the powers of both are kept intentionally separate. at the same time, the plot demonstrates repeatedly that the role of paul atreides as a character is that of the border between the concepts juxtaposed within dichotomies: he is both an outerworlder and fremen, both harkonnen and atreides, both a duke and a disciple of the bene gesserit.
as such, it follows that within the in-universe gender structure, he occupies the roles of both male and female, thus being functionally and societally nonbinary. in this essay, i will -
Any black woman complaining about stereotypes in relation to the personalities and styles of black women are coons, the end.
There are black women behind these accs that are writing based on how they are, how they dress, how they act. That's not stereotypical.
Plenty black women writers wear wigs, acrylics, have boisterous personalities, are thicker. How yall gon tell THEM they don't deserve representation bc it offends you? Yall sound like karens.
If you not that kind of black woman congrats but you don't get a cookie. Make your own representation. Stop following racist agendas from yt ppl who want us to see our own race as bad.
I love any kind of black woman. You should too.

#Like i was fr locked in they have my whole heart watching the og and the remakes was like a huge part of my life. #love them
hard to believe that in 2016 we were all collectively clicking on Google drive links while waiting for subtitles so we could watch a Norwegian show about two boys and then that show got insanely popular so they made several remakes in Europe- further proving that yes there are other isaks and evens in the parallel universes and yes the curtains are different and really queerness is a long thread and we're all holding onto it and it brings us together minute by minute.
(also it did change the TV landscape because a show like young royals would never get made in 2016)
right louis dulac… resurrecting the dead…..tht ended well the first time right…right
You are faced with some random problem and the only person who can help you is the main character from the last piece of media you consumed (you can also do favorite character if there are multiple main characters). You can stay in this universe or be in the universe of the character, whichever you prefer, but the problem remains the same and the only person who can directly help you is the main character. That character can call on the help of those they know in their media, but when it comes down to it, they are the only person really helping you. How do you react to this situation?
Spin to find out your problem:
sarcastic sassy men are going to do it for me every single fucking time.
Bc once your age hits a 'serious' number, you start to think - "damn, I should probably stop geeking and get more serious." But then you scroll and see a 34y/o woman writing fics after driving her kids to school, a 40y/o dude making fanart of his fav super heroes and you realize - "nah, I'm actually good"
likeeee mind u the fucking kkk still exists yall some weird fucks seriously get help.
I think it's really crazy how this movie was supposed to circle around black people, but the Elmer's glue skinned people had to fuck it up by their crazy ass fantasies. "Sammie x Remmick" "Remmick x plantation owner daughter" "stack x smoke" I also seen "kkk member x reader" like what this actual fuck, shipping remmick with Sammie is one thing and outrageous but a kkk member is a actual different level of insane. I can't make anyone do anything but the least y'all could do is take that shit to ao3 so we have the choice to avoid it.
I mean we just can't have shit without White people fucking it up. They always and I mean ALWAYS find a way to make it about them. As expected we could have had something great I mean stack and smoke are right there why are not focusing on the actual fine shyt's. The internet always finds a way to disappoint.
honestly wth are ppl seeing maybe im a vet but ik how to keep specific tag away nd even if something does pop up… I dont read it…. like u have free will…. nd fandom was literally created as a subspace for freaks nd “counterculture” (our roots spirkkkkkk) yall puritans wouldnt survive a day in prime wattpad w/o filters god BRING BACK THE WEIRDOS

the fact that i'm no longer the same age as the protagonists of novels and films i once connected to is so heartbreaking. there was a time when I looked forward to turning their age. i did. and i also outgrew them. i continue to age, but they don't; never will. the immortality of fiction is beautiful, but cruel.
