Bring back shame.

But isn't the PM openly gay? Is it a dig at him or something?

[lithiumflower]

No, it’s apparently because of her own work, which got her invited!


The pic is real, it’s @blAddictbyNao! She’s a French publisher that recently licensed Love Shuttle (the book she’s holding, her first license) in paper format, so she's simply holding the result of her hard work in her hands 🤗

what is yaoi?

[deerlike]

Yama nashi, ochi nashi, imi nashi.

[richyrich909]

What does this mean bb?

[deerlike]

The term yaoi is an acronym from the words Yama nashi, ochi nashi, imi nashi "No peak (climax), no fall (punch line/denouement), no meaning"

Basically it's the equivalent of PWP (Plot? What Plot?) in online fanfiction lol.

omega verse

NO.

Keep that to the tag on AO3 so I can always filter it out.

plsss i am begging...i see this shit enough in every single ship i look up on AO3

I've been in fandom for literally decades and I will never understand the appeal of it, horrible

[sashwizzled]

I genuinely think the appeal started off as women in fandom being so automisogynistic that they created a whole genre that lets them get rid of women completely while still keeping full heteronormativity, including pregnancy plots. Also, it has like half the fanfiction PWP tropes built into it.

I googled thinking it was some anti feminism or misogynistic work 😂

[richyrich909]

Same 😂

[lamppost1911]

Glad it’s not just me. I know I’m very “how do you do, fellow kids?” but ma’am!

[ahkna]

I mean, yeah, it is. The entire premise of Omegaverse stuff is hugely misogynistic.
