Read More > Big on the Internet, anime, Geeky Valentine's Day, Valentine's Day By Briana Lawrence on Fri,1:57 Let's be honest. One of the greatest character interactions in anime (and media in general) stems from rivalries. Are they friends? Are they enemies? Is the creator just writing the longest slow burn fic of all time? Yes. The post An Anime Guide on Finding a Love—*AHEM* Sorry, a “Rival” for Valentine’s Day first appeared on The Mary Sue.

If they can just do it in a colorblind manner, a mixture, or just be brutal. Dickinson is one of the few that I think has struck a good balance between acknowledging the time period and situation of Black people, while still allowing them to have joys.

Read More > Big on the Internet, Britney Spears By Princess Weekes on Fri,11:19 The #FreeBritney movement has been a part of an intersection discussion about women's autonomy but also mental health and ableism. Conservatorship has been proven to be legally hard to undo and while there are certainly times where it is useful, I think that it is important that whomever the person put in charge of it is someone the conservatee trusts.

Read More > TV, Wanda Maximoff, WandaVision, WandaVision Static By Rachel Leishman on Fri,10:38 It's going to be interesting to see how WandaVision tackles the modern sitcom/mockumentary style because, much like what the 90s/00s gave us, there is an earnestness to them that still rings true so...what else can Wanda learn about herself?
