Caitlin Grey, Foenix, curator of the internet's junk drawer. She/her. This is where all the interesting things go, but you never know what might explode out when you open the drawer. But you can expect horror movies, comics, science fiction, and tv.

Anonymous asked:

You should really read Women in Refrigerators. You don't seem to understand what fridging is.

brevoortformspring answered:

I think I understand what fridging is just fine. I simply do not agree that every instance of something bad happening to a female character within the context of a super hero story constitutes fridging.

I absolutely agree with this. It’s like the tendency to say every Original Character MUST be a Mary Sue.

I’ve never liked how some people have taken fridging to such lengths that you can’t do ANYthing to a female character, else you get called out for it. And it can frequently just be an emotional reaction to being a fan of said characters.

There IS a fine line between bad things happening to characters, and actual fridging, and that mileage is going to vary for everyone, but sometimes it’s just an overreaction.

And I’m doing a terrible job of explaining my thoughts, and have begun rambling, so shutting up now. >.<

something that exists in the city I'm moving to:

I am obsessed with this park that combines all midcentury dangerous playground elements into one awful whole. witness this steep metal slide descending from the top of a jungle gym into a concrete pit

if you fall off the jungle gym, you too will be doomed to the pit

there's very little opportunity to get out, too. the only handholds are the ones on the left. Sendai gets a lot of rain, almost as much as Vancouver, so imagine being mangled from sliding into concrete and having to climb a sheer, slippery slope to freedom. I think I would just make a home down there and give up on life
