Bigotry Would Be "I Don't Like You So You Are Inferior To Me" Where As Criticism Is "I Don't Like Your

first of all we gotta acknowledge the fact it was so so incredibly brave of my boy crowley to voice words like "us", "our" and "we". can you imagine a demon that had fallen even before time had begun pledges indirect royalty to you almost forever, after the worlds you both have known perishes and because you are aziraphale you freak out and reject him in an unsalvageable way ✨

so good you puke it out and then eat it again

I'd love to see feminists placing women in the role of "default human" from now on as a way of centering them, using feminine pronouns when speaking of people generally. Men have done this for themselves for more than long enough. I want to take maleness out of our language as much as possible, at least in English.

"To each their own" >>> "To each her own"

"Every person should be able to do what he wants" >>> "Every person should be able to do what she wants"

"God in His infinite wisdom..." >>> "God in Her infinite wisdom..."

Etc.

Just speak from the female experience as much as possible. Wash maleness out of your speech, and you'll wash it gradually out of your way of thinking.

not interested in getting involved in the rest of this discussion, for the most part, but to me this is a GREAT piece of advice that many people these days don't seem to be getting or understanding.

not everyone you meet or interact with is your friend, the requirements and expectations for respectful behaviour between friends is not the same as between strangers.

Was just diagnosed with “need to bite you” disorder. Yeah sorry it’s terminal. The only cure is biting you. C’mere.

how can you, aziraphale,a being that hasn't had any temporary long term companion other than the guy who has been by your side for 6000 years;be so cruel to exact same person

as a think piece I believe this was azi's most brutal act up to today.not just for crowley but for his actions in all the universe as whole,how the people who knows us best makes our worst side come through.not only do I think the fact that crowley making his want "to be together no matter what" most obviously in the time they'd known each other made aziraphale so angry and antagonising because of denial also he spews all the hatred he received, all the downturn glares,of all the things he done while he questioned righteousness of it cause he been told it's an order.it's a breakdown that hasn't happened in thousand years from the gaze that can't hold eye contact while yelling to admitting they were one against all,against the world once upon a time but now it ended that it's over.(once again gonna applause crowley for the intense bravery that bordered on stupidity, he knew honorable aziraphale would never accept running away to save his own ass but he still tried)

She’s spot on

boy that jaw

the pipeline from fucked up family to polyamorous incestuous fucked up family was.. certainly a choice in the 3rd episode

"There were only the remains of what she left behind in her country.(...) The son she couldn't bring along,the son whom she wasn't sure would forgive her for it. She would have loved to explain her reasons for leaving him. Why she took his sister Sumeya with her but not him. To recall what were they doing to girls in their country, Gine. She remembered vividly the time they took her away from home, and hold her legs down.The splitting pain that forced her to faint, the known agony coming back everytime her husband laid with her and like a repeating torture with every birth she carried to term. The ugly act that were passed down from generation to generation.That offense to womanhood...

She couldn't let them do that to her daughter.Albeit she knew it was inescapable. She once heard 96% women in Gine was "cut". Although she never want to school, she knew that this meant. It meant her mother, her sisters, her neighbours, her cousins, her friends... It also meant Sumeya.(...)One friend of hers told her the way out. "You can only take one child with you. You cannot cross it with two. " So she made her pick. It was the most devastating choice she had to endure but she had made it to The Palace in a exhausting year. Sumeya was saved. "
