Have you ever wondered what it's like to have Christmas without a real family or serious friends?

Here's the short description: It sucks. If I'm lucky, the foster parents will give me something with a snarky message about getting in less trouble at school attached. If I'm really lucky it will actually be something some teens might want and won't be an ugly sweater or some crap.

On the other hand, I guess I have some things to be thankful for. I'm not a fugitive, I'm still human or at least I look the part, and I'm still able to fight when someone gives me a new plan.

Speaking of! Someone gimme some ideas for kicking... Okay I was going to say patriarchy butt (been reading some feminist webcomics lately), but now I think it we don't know the alien's genders. Alienarchy? Exoarchy? ... Hell if I know the right word.

Ideas for the right word to use there, as well as actual plans for wrecking this conspiracy so we can go off and be superheroes are both appreciated. Thank you.

And merry whatevermas. For those of us who haven't enjoyed cooler holidays like Hanukkah recently.

Guess it sounds nice. Doesn't really do much for me right now though.

[blastiaobsessieanonymous]

It's one of those "Start now for a long-term payoff" things.

[dragon_blossom]

Eh, there are plenty of other girls working on it. I'll stick to survival, school, and tennis.

[blastiaobsessieanonymous]

That attitude's the kinda thing that leads to women not making as much progress, though. It's mostly just about calling out misogynistic bullshit whenever you see it, you know?

[dragon_blossom]

I call bullshit on people anyways. That's not any kind of special thing.

[blastiaobsessieanonymous]

It shouldn't be, but for a lot of people, it still is...

[dragon_blossom]

Ugh, like, I'm not super feminist or whatever, but if a girl wants to like, play a boy sport, fuck, why not? Stuff like that is cool with me.

[blastiaobsessieanonymous]

You're getting the idea.

[dragon_blossom]

Seems pretty common sense but eh, sexist old people are gonna die eventually.

[blastiaobsessieanonymous]

Have you ever heard a thirteen-year-old play Army Kill?

You've gotta break the sexism from the young, too, or they'll just be the next sexist old people.

[dragon_blossom]

Ugh, alright, alright, I guess I can't just be like, a good example of girl power and let the rest go.

[blastiaobsessieanonymous]

If only it were that easy.

More female superheroes oughta be a good step though.

[dragon_blossom]

Well I guess we're gonna be those.

[blastiaobsessieanonymous]

Convenient, huh?

[dragon_blossom]

I'm not wearing any kind of spandex though.

[blastiaobsessieanonymous]

Spandex is actually really good for leg covering. But not for the chest or anything, no, I agree there.

[dragon_blossom]

With my ass hanging out and everything? How about some body armor?

[blastiaobsessieanonymous]

... It's odd to think how most superheroes don't wear that.

I guess they're tougher than normal stock so it's not actually helpful.

[dragon_blossom]

Yeah, I guess some of them are tougher than armor? But I'm not.

[blastiaobsessieanonymous]

Yet.

[dragon_blossom]

I refuse to transform, but if I just become indestructible, that'll be just fine.

[blastiaobsessieanonymous]

Oh come on! Transforming is badass!

[dragon_blossom]

Maybe if it's reversible.

[blastiaobsessieanonymous]

It usually is.

[dragon_blossom]

...and it better not be too sparkly, or revealing, or interruptable, or make me float around naked...
