I had more nightmares last night but not even petscop themed, just simply because of the aura of fear lingering. I'm such a baby lol

I'll elaborate later on my blog but there's not much else to say tbh. Christian ideals as an extension of misogyny blah blah blah

And despite anyone's intentions, I don't know who said this but I've heard this quote, "the purpose of a system is what it does"

I do not really want to have to read about systems theory just to be sure I'm using a quote right in my blog posting about religious trauma but fine I guess

As a queer person, the whole cishet romance genre seems to be 'what if a man was emotionally available' and it lowkey distresses me.

Like I was gonna say--the message essentially boils down to "you should keep waiting because he's just a lost sad man that needs to find his way to christ and you" and the secular version of that is "you can and should fix him because he's just a sad lost man and he needs to find his way to you" like either way it's keeping women in this submissive state of complacency.

I would love to see the "I can fix them" mentality explored as a toxic trait or tragedy rather than idealistic romance. The only stories I can think of that do this are my own, godbless
Music player could possibly work if the rest of the page wasn't as scrap-booky possibly. It might be a better idea to apply that kind of aesthetic to the photo galleries or cookbook
Oh and reminder to self to take that cucumber salad recipe down. Folks, there's 2000 ways to make cucumber salad that one is not one of them.
Also sort of want a bit of a retro file system theme. I think it could work with serious topics it just needs to be more coherent and less busy I think.
My blog is, cute =/= not able to tackle serious stuff. Like, idk, the idea that a cutesy aesthetic can't discuss discrimination or serious subjects seems rooted in the same misogyny you're talking about addressing?
Yeah, I mean I'm going to talk about whatever I want on my blog regardless of how cute my site looks.
