There's Something About Deeming Women Simply Biologically Incapable Of Playing Five Sets, As They Used

there's something about deeming women simply biologically incapable of playing five sets, as they used to be deemed biologically incapable of running marathons, before giving them a chance to actually play five sets in the first place, and then using five set tennis — something only men have been given the opportunity to partake in and test themselves in and practice and train for — as the benchmark for what qualifies as good, chatrier night session worthy tennis.

MY arcane alternate universe where silco teams up with everyone’s other favorite eloquent sharp-dressed morally grey deeply emotional yet projects coldness villain with offputting eyes—grand admiral thrawn, of course—and they win zaun’s independence and then save the chiss ascendancy from the grysks. hire me fortiche!!!

star wars arcane silco thrawn ill delete this later imagine thrawn in arcane animation bro would be the end of me anyway I just finished arcane and silco on top of being an incredibly well-written character really scratched the thrawn itch and I want to see an eye of zaun/chimaera crew link up imagine eli interacting with jinx he would be terrified of sevika but she and ar’alani would be chill both no nonsense women who have to watch over stupid men I need to go to bed this is the chronically sleep deprived talking

The cure to anxiety is completing all the tasks you have to finish for the day early and doing them phenomenally and being physically perfect and on everyone’s good side preferably even their favorite.
