If you get it, you get it.
I love this
The timing and the setting aren’t what I thought they’d be.
—Kristoff, Frozen II, “Get This Right”
Today is a historic day in my country, we’re fed up with gender violence in Mexico. They’re killing us. Picture this, you can’t walk outside your own house because you fear the worst, you fear that your clothes are too revealing, you fear that you’re too alone, you fear that you’re walking the wrong streets. Day after day you wake up to the news of another feminicide. They’re killing us. You see it, you hear it, you fear it. What if I’m the next one? You’re always wondering. They’re killing us.
10 women are killed every day, only because they’re women. And it doesn’t matter where we are, what we’re wearing, who we are. It’s not our fault, because they keep killing us.
If we keep up at this rate? What’ll be of us?
(None of the pictures are mine)
“I march because I’m alive and I don’t know until when.”
“Today, all our voices aren’t together because, from death, one can’t scream.”
“We’re not hysteric, we’re historic.”
“Mom, if you don’t find me, look up for me in the stars.”
“Mom, don’t worry, today I’m not alone in the streets.”
What would Mexico be without us? If you don’t want us in the streets, fine we’ll disappear.
Mexico woke up with no women ticket-sellers in the subway stations, no women tellers at the bank.
No women’s column on the newspapers.
No women at their jobs.
No women at school.
No women on the streets.
May I interest the people in ✨Jason Todd✨?
and by the way, major kudos to the authors of WFA for not treating Jason like he's incompetent. the family could've just met up without him knowing to discuss the course of action, instead they included him and didn't treat him like he's broken. yes, it backfired, but also at least Jason knows that his family doesn't consider his PTSD as a liability, or as something that makes him entirely useless or triggered at the slightest mention of the Joker. because he did look for Duke, after all, and he did show up at Tim's to discuss what to do since Bruce's shutting them all out. the fact that he got triggered anyway doesn't make him any less competent or any less capable and his family knows and won't hesitate to be there for him through it all.
I don't have a fast pass so no spoilers, please!!
What really breaks me about Jason's death is that it was his own mother who sold him out.
The very woman Jason had spent weeks tracking down, the last person he had left of his family. Jason, who was so loving and caring and just needed that mother figure in his life. And obviously, after she served her "purpose" to the Joker, he tried to kill her, and Jason - half dead already, beaten to a bloody pulp - still tried to save her! He still tried to save this woman, who sold him out for cash, who fully knew he was hoing to die at fifteen years of age, who only began to regret it when her own life was at risk.
He still tried to save her. Because he was a hero. He was Robin, and he'd be damned if someone died on his watch. He didn't spend his last moments waiting for Batman to show up - he was desperately trying to get his mother out, get her to safety, to do the good right thing.
And he still died.
He did everything right, and it still wasn't good enough.

been thinking about them a lot lately
I love how Zuko's perception of the gaang must have done a complete 360 after joining them like
Zuko, before joining: this is a group of extremely skilled benders, i must be prepared for any possible situation when i run into them
Zuko, right after joining: wait a minute these aren't trained warriors they're bunch of goofy kids that have somehow survived without adult supervision all this time, i shouldn't have been so worried
Zuko, seeing Katara bloodbend: what the fuck what the fuck what the fuck what the fuck what-
a few things that will now cause Jason extreme fear:
exercise
fear
loud noises
bright lights
fear
high temperatures
threats
low temperatures
being excited
sex
anxiety
stress

and here's a fun fact: adrenaline actually causes the memory-making bits of your brain to be stronger, which means you have a clearer memory of exactly what happened to make you afraid
