can we talk about sex workers in Good Omens being actual people who just happen to exist instead of caricatures wedged into the narrative to test “morality”
like how much respect do we pay to those works that don't make sex workers look like cautionary tales, or damsels in distress to be rescued, or even villains to be slain just to make a point
I’m sorry if this is offensive and maybe I’m just really pea-brained, but I can’t grasp how someone can capture the raw appeal of men with such pinpoint precision while having zero attraction to them. Is it that you exclusively date women, hold a small amount of attraction to men, but just choose not to date them? Sorry if this is invalidating to you as a lesbian in any way. I know my share of being invalidated, given that I’m a bi woman, but I just had to know.
I’m not even remotely attracted to men and I never have been, I’m just a very good writer

If you see this on your dashboard, reblog this, NO MATTER WHAT and all your dreams and wishes will come true.
So. Mon Mothma is dealing with the fact that she was married off at 15 (something that the canon kind of just. Ignores up to this point??? the horror of????) and is dealing with a controlling abusive husband who is so jealous he weaponized their 15 year old daughter against her and convinced the daughter she wanted to 'follow tradition" and be married off to some boy who hates her but wants her power all as a ploy to keep control over the two women.
and then the daughter cries and tells her mom she doesnt want this and the mom says "you can say no" and the daughter thinks the mother is double crossing her to ruin her happiness because the father is abusive and told her she would do this so she goes through with it and Mon realizes the generational abuse of women is cyclical all while spinning the plates for the rebellion and I just

-The guy who didn’t know “beat” in a script meant that you paused the length of a musical beat and would hit the table every time he saw it
-“My character is a kind, likable, smart, funny, talented jock that everyone loves. His weakness? He’s too perfect and popular.” “What’s his character arc?” “A girl who doesn’t like him learns to like him.” “But how does he grow and get better?” “Oh he doesn’t.” “What’s his flaw?” “He doesn’t have one.”
-The professor who asked us to argue one side of an argument or another for our papers but only let us use references that agreed with her opinion
-The guy reading aloud my script and didn’t understand that “he runs his hand through his hair anxiously” meant his own hair so he started anxiously running his fingers through the other guy’s hair
-“My character is based on me. He’s a nice guy who doesn’t have a lot of friends, he’s smart, girls don’t really pay attention to him and he’s never dated or had sex. … He’s not entirely based on me actually I shouldn’t have said that.”
-The professor who had us watch porn for homework then again in class while high schoolers were visiting
-The guy who was a super atheist who only wrote movies making fun of religion and took zero criticism because no one “got” his ideas
-“It’s about a society where robots have taken over all manual jobs so society is in upheaval as half the population is out of work. My main character is a super hero.” “Is he fighting against the rich people like Robin Hood?” “No he’s fighting the unemployed rioters.” “… That’s a bad idea.”
-The guy who wanted to be a voice actor so found every excuse to do his horrible voices in class with his favorites being a cartoon Asian accent and jive talk
-The time we had to be in groups and write a kids story and the group that unironically wrote about a scared bunny who learned to be brave and that playing in traffic is fun
-The film writing professor who didn’t know what the word climax meant in relation to plot points in a script and said she didn’t think films had a concept of having a story climax and it only happened in books
-“That reminds me of this time I was in the Louvre on shrooms…”
