Ok so i was binging Mentor Lisa in a nutshell vids on YouTube cause they’re funny asl and decided to check out the survival show Lisa was mentoring on (Youth With You 2) and was blown away omfggg kpop needs to step up their game cause China’s leagues above imo watch the performances from ywy2 and you’ll see what i mean (also check out Chuang 2020 cause holy shit)
anyway enough of me fangirling lol (seriously tho i highly recommend you watch the performances from both survival shows) the ywy2 contestants were really friendly and it was a nice change of pace to watch a competition with a cordial atmosphere
though everyone was very pally with each other the friendship between esther yu and zhao xiaotang was the best part as well as the funniest aspect ahaha
they debuted together and I’m SO jealous of their friendship omgg they’re the definition of platonic soulmates like wth?? where tf is my best friend??? fuck Romeo and Juliet i want what these bitches have
esther even stated in an interview that her mom had told her to make friends during the competition and to find a life long friend to be neighbors with when she’s a little old lady and said that person is xiaotang TT and xiaotang cried upon hearing that I’m- they’re always holding hands too TT don’t touch me I’m soft
bruh i just want someone to hold my hand under the bathroom stall for emotional support while pooping in public is that too much to ask??
I remember reading that the Emperor's Children were given the right to use the wing of the Aquila as their chapter icon as a special honour. Does that mean that you cannot use the Aquila or its elements in your iconography willy-nilly? So you can't, say, place the Aquila on your shoulderpads unless you earned it.
The Sisterhood of the traveling Veil. That is what I am calling this Hallmark cinematic event. I am in it for Lacey Chabert and Autumn Reeser. I will not cast dispersion on the third member, but I believe in my heart, that Bethany Joy Lenz or Taylor Cole would have rounded out the cast a little better. Perhaps in the future we can get a Bethany, Taylor and Niki version of the Sisterhood of the Traveling Veil.
Has anybody heard if this show is actually going to go forward? It'd be something nice to tide us over in (possibly) early/mid 2023, at least.
I loved the season 3 but I wish we see the members of Sisterhood of DADA more. Yeah, Rita and Rouge can be accepted as members of SoD but except Fog, we didn't see them that much and they look so interesting. They didn't explain their powers and motives. I hope we will see them in future seasons as well as Danny and Flex.
I came across this article while searching for something else, and felt others here might also find it interesting. Here are the first couple of paragraphs:
>"Women don't sell video games."
>
>That's one of the attitudes allegedly expressed by Ubisoft's marketing department and management on 2018's Assassin's Creed Odyssey, mandating the game needed a playable male as an alternative to Kassandra.
>
>But Kulpreet Virdi, founder of the fan movement Assassin's Creed Sisterhood, is urging games firms to move beyond this outdated perception -- and she believes the way new releases are promoted is crucial.

Hi friends,
Lurker here, finally reaching out for help.
Who I am:
You can call me Kitty. The new terminology I’ve learned to describe myself is Rainforest mind (RFM). It’s worth looking up - I suspect there are many of us in here.
Age 29, grew up in the Midwest as a wild, imaginative adventure-souled girl, but over the years I was folded up into a polite, fearful, people-pleasing woman who seems to frequently fail to live up to expectations.
Divorced a year from a beautiful human who I shouldn’t have married.
I’m authentic and kind, when I’m feeling safe enough to unfold without my intensity being seen as weird or annoying.
How I was harmed:
I’ve allowed the diminishing feedback of others about my “too much-ness”, from a teeny tiny age, to warp my curious and brave nature into one of hiding and fear. This is common for RFM, adhd, and HSP individuals.
Society’s culture of sexuality/nudity censorship and shaming + church + parents embarrassed to talk about sex + sexual trauma has impacted me quite severely. I shut down all connections to me erotic nature. I thought I was broken.
Because I was pretty and learned to mask my neurodiversity with “good girl charm,” I was also never diagnosed with being neurodivergent. Attractive people are “forgiven” their quirks, I think. Teachers probably wrote me off as sweet but odd. I hid my feelings of being a misfit well. Undiagnosed adhd, autism, HSP, RFM, RSD - all the letters and names for my being different and the lack of support and understanding for how to express myself - left me feeling like a freak.
The depth of my intensity, from mind to heart to intuition to soul, makes me too much for lots of people. I’ve lost friends over and over and over. I’ve internalized it.
How I’ve been healing:
It’s unconventional, but I’ve been posting my own sexual exploration as a NSFW account on Reddit.
Exploring nudity, kink, erotica, porn, and now even offline going to a BDSM dungeon to make friends and have play scenes that are exhilarating. I feel alive and powerful in my body again.
In making my Reddit, I’ve mostly interacted with men. I realized what a special opportunity it is to connect with men who feel safe to talk from behind anonymity about their sexual problems and fears.
I’m starting to see patterns. I’m starting to imagine a way to help and change culture. Their fears aren’t the same as my fears, but they make sense together.
How my magic seems to manifest:
Im a powerful

I recently found a Spotify account with the name "Sisterhood" which has the bands logo. The album "Gift" has been uploaded there in 2019, however there are a couple more albums from that same year & from 2014 & I am wondering if those are songs by the actual Sisterhood or by another band using the same name. I thought after the release of "Gift" they agreed to not use the name anymore & continue as The Mission & Sisters of Mercy.
I am 30 years old, born and raised in the US and always felt ashamed being Asian when I was younger. During my college years and onwards I finally accepted and embraced my Asian side of myself. I missed out on joining the Asian sorority, so I was wondering if there was any organizations or groups with similar concept of making friends with fellow Asians and Asian women like a sisterhood.
Yes, I did try to Google for local groups in my area, but nothing showed up that is nearby.
I haven't caught up to the latest episode so maybe this is explained eventually, but unlike the Doom Patrol none of their powers seem to prevent aging but they are all look about the same age in the present as they did in 1917.
Hi ! This is one more post of a series whose aim is to share the Monogatari short stories that hadn't been translated into English yet.
Short stories masterpost here, updated regularly to show our progress with the translations.
A nice early Christmas surprise today with Sodachi Sisterhood (translated by Mirrored Translations), published in the Monogatari Series Monster Season Completion Memorial Review BOOK, which is a booklet distributed for free in Japanese stores to celebrate the end of Monster Season. This one is narrated by Sodachi, and it might be taking place during the events of Shinomonogatari, given the particular setting (if you don't already know about that, that's probably a spoiler).
We just learned yesterday the existence of that new short story, along with that booklet released three days ago. As soon as that was done, it was sent to Allie (who happens to be a huge Sodachi fan), and she wasted no time in delivering this translation, thank you so much !
You can read it here, on Allie's website.
While I still don't know what to think about this setting and its implications being an actual thing in Monogatari, this was a very heartwarming story and a breath of fresh air with a rare narrator and character interaction. Wish we had more of those !
By the way, this booklet also contains a timeline of all the novel arcs in order, which I'm suuuure is not gonna contradict any known information in the mess that is the Off / Monster Season arcs. Edo is already on it and will probably post it very soon.
By the way², the previous released short story, Mayoi Heaven, is still untranslated as Polaris (the most likely translator for it) is still MIA at the moment. Of course, I'll post it as soon as I can get it done !
Thanks for reading and see you next time for another story !

Siblings I have some questions on Women in Sufism. I have of course seen videos and photos of women going to shrines and doing dhikr (both with men and by themselves) and I know there are Women Wali like Rabi'a al-'Adawiyyah (AS) but am unfamiliar with how our sisters relate to the Tariqa. Are there Turuq which have sisters as Murids or are there sisterhoods which operate independently and have female Shaykhs? Or do any major brotherhoods have like a female "wing" under the same shaykh or are there where women are totally integrated. Or is women's relationship to Tasawwuf less formal like they don't make Bay'ah to a certain master but still participate in "popular" sufism. Forgive the word salad. I'm sure this is an extremely complex topic which has evolved and changed over time and from place to place etc. but I am genuinely curious and thought it would be an interesting conversations. I would be honored to hear the perspectives of our Sisters but all feel free to comment.
Jazakallah Khairan
I am a man. I always have been a man or a boy, but I have only recently discovered this to be the case. But for 31 years I’ve been connected to the story and life and mythology of woman. Her struggle has been my struggle. Her social expectations have also been placed on me. Her fear on a dark street on the way home has been mine. And the comfort of being looked after by the sisterhood of women is something that I have come to rely on and cherish. So standing at the edge of manhood, I feel alone. I fear I will never be accepted by my brothers and I will be rejected by my sisters. I don’t know what to say except is there anyone out there who understands what I’m saying and has felt what I’m feeling?
It's a movie from my native country and I would like to see what people think of it. I am very glad that shows the realistic picture about the youth in our country. It's not sugarcoated like in Hollywood so you can see how our society lives.
