Boob armor is mocked partially because its actually quite impractical, armor is designed how it is for function and the fancy filigree shit is added as a nod to fancy ass nobles having a lot of money - as a fantasy thing its neat and sometimes what we want is a power fantasy anyway, so fill your boots. I think the criticism of boob armor is overwrought too.

2Bs character design is acknowledged to be "gooner shit" by the series creator. I think its an interesting contrast between the environment and story and these maid outfits, some parts are furthering the story and world building (for example the blinds). She doesnt pick goth maid, its repeated across other androids so its not exactly furthering characterization. Its a weaker case to call out being unable to see women as sex objects in video games - 2B looks like that because thats what the creator was trying to do and seeing her or criticizing her that way isnt "thinly veiled misogyny" its just regular feminist lit theory.

Samus armor is cool though for sure, no notes there. It makes sense in universe, serves the story and characterization, and isnt tailor made to be fetish content.

    Downside: tones can be a healtrip and hard to figure out from an atonal language. There's nothing connecting it like romance languages or Germania languages and English. No real free leg up

    Upside: way simpler grammar, also no gendered pronouns. Typing can be done way faster.

    1. The Supreme Rick and Morty Bong is conceivable.
    2. Existence in reality is greater than existence solely in the understanding.
    3. Therefore, the Supreme Rick and Morty Bong must exist.
    4. Its necessary perfection entails supreme durability, peerless engineering, and immaculate pickle-green glazing.
    5. Someone's cousin possesses it, although nobody can remember which cousin, and he is currently out of town.

    Shes just not that bright and never has been, you dont have to be smart to be a leftist of course. But shes just never been that bright so of course this was doomed to failure, and she should've seen all the people it failed for historically.

    My dad was always on my ass about cutting my hair too, but its part of our culture (Im indigenous) for everyone to grow their hair and braid it. He got so assimilated he couldnt speak our language, he bought totally in to fundie western conservative culture that shat upon his people from a great height to put it lightly lol

    I dont really get what's going on with the boy from venus but it seems like its affecting people so I guess thats good

    A lot of early transition stuff is kinda mystifying to me ans I have a hard time relating, partially cause its been a while but also because I cracked my egg then started doing stuff about it in fairly short order. Like 3 weeks I think?
