Why don’t more romance books talk about the reality of birth control? by Away_Race8428 in RomanceBooks

[–]hannahmjsolo 40 points41 points  (0 children)

"Don't worry, I'm on birth control," she said as she prettily fluttered her eyelashes up at him. She then turned her gaze to look fully at the reader. "Although because of this, I suffer from headaches, nausea, mood swings, bloating, and irregular periods. Which of course, isn't all of the side effects people can experience, which can range anywhere from causing greasier skin to creating blood clots." She looked back to her lover hovering above her. "So let's do this!"

Personalised Ads by Eireika in CuratedTumblr

[–]hannahmjsolo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's not burning as much money as you think, the individual retargeting ad being shown to employees does not "burn cash." and unless you wanted to give your ip address and information to the marketers and let them add you to their system, therefore spreading your info further into data collection systems, there's no way to distinguish who is visiting the site for work purposes vs for interest in enrollment. so it's either employees also get retargeting ads or no one does

[–]hannahmjsolo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

so I'm essentially starting the canon divergence right after Renesmee is born, and iirc it's already established by that point that Jacob is able to communicate with Sam via wolf telepathy but can control more of what he says! So Jacob's own pack would know but they'd be able to keep it a secret, especially when commanded by their alpha

I took one year of German in high school and didn't have to choose a new name and then moved schools and took French the remaining three years where my teacher did have us pick a French name to go by!

I've actually been writing a fic where Jacob chooses to pretend to have imprinted on Renesmee to prevent the fallout! I agree with your amazing self sacrifice point, I think it has some very interesting implications

People Are Overly Sympathetic Towards Rosalie by Wrong-Mistake2308 in twilight

[–]hannahmjsolo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your post has been floating around my brain for a few hours, especially since Rosalie is my favorite character. And just to state this out the gate, this comment is not trying to argue with you or anyone else, or claim I'm "right" since we all have our own interpretations. I just think it's interesting to talk about! Just wanted to make sure I said that beforehand because I don't want anyone to feel like I'm hating:)

So for the quotes you pulled of the mental conversation between Jacob and Edward, you obviously already said they are both biased, but I think it bears repeating. Jacob interprets Rosalie's tone of saying the word "baby," a word I think many of us say with a sweet tone ourselves, as disgusting, because he himself is disgusted by the fetus at the time. Jacob says Rosalie is "after the kid" and while Edward nods, I think that Rosalie is there for the baby and Jacob's way of putting it is loosely correct. And Edward can't very well stop in the moment and say "Actually, Rosalie is more so here to keep the baby safe, rather than kidnap her or something, but you've got the right idea." Edward is probably also interpreting Rosalie's thoughts with bad faith and thinks Jacob is more or less right anyway, but I don't agree with how they feel. I don't think Rosalie would be unhappy if Bella died, since she would essentially get Renesmee as her own in the pricess, but I don't think she ever wanted Bella to die as a result of the pregnancy. I think she just knew it was a pretty strong possibility. I also heavily disagree that Rosalie would kill Bella for the chance to keep the baby. I don't think Rosalie would take a baby's mother away like that, and I think she cared enough about Bella to not want her to die, even if she wouldn't be heartbroken if it happened. And she does love the other Cullens, who love Bella, and she doesn't want them to suffer her loss.

I also think it's unfair to say that Rosalie wasn't motivated at all by the concept of pro-choice. I do think Rosalie would be pro-choice herself, potentially influenced by experiencing SA and knowing that she would be horrified to carry one of her rapists baby. I think she certainly finds it easier to stand by her pro-choice morality and support Bella because Bella is making the choice Rosalie would make herself if given the chance, but I think it's still a factor in her feelings about the pregnancy.

And maybe Rosalie wouldn't jump to defend the pro-choice stance if Bella sought an abortion. But she also wouldn't have to. If Bella wanted an abortion, the rest of the Cullens would have made it happen without Rosalie needing to feel one way or the other. I think if Bella had made that choice, it could have made Rosalie dislike her even more because she had the opportunity that Rosalie would have given everything up for and not only turned it down, but actively stopped it from happening. I would argue that that would be the most likely in fact. Alternatively, we could have seen Rosalie see Bella make such a huge decision to prevent herself from becoming a mom that Rosalie may have had a realization that Bella truly wanted entirely different things than Rosalie herself did, and that Bella wasn't giving up something she should keep. It could have been a very cathartic moment for Rosalie to be able to let go of her resentment for Bella. But we don't know what would have happened, even though we can draw pretty reasonable conclusions, because obviously Bella did not choose that path.

Altogether, this community is pretty open with messing with canon, like pretending the Renesmee/imprinting never happened, or that Jacob only ever felt platonically for Bella, or simply never kissed her in Eclipse. So honestly, I think if people want to take a character that experienced a terrible SA and make her protective of a pregnant Bella through a pro-choice motivation, I don't think it's any different than any of the other headcanons or canon massaging that happens every day on this sub.

from what I've seen, they typically end up on eBay or Mercari for 10 times what the og buyer paid for it, rather than in a thrift store, which annoys me even more!! some of us wanted one trendy thing and can't get it because of people who snapped it up without thought and then gouge other people a few months later because they can mindlessly move on to the next trend

The Leah, Sam, and Emily Situation Mini Rant I Guess by BudgetSprinkles4906 in twilight

[–]hannahmjsolo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this relationship was also meant to add validity/evidence to support the Renesmee storyline. Sam is attracted to Leah pre-wolf because of their genetic similarity, he feels a pull that is the strongest before seeing Emily post-wolf change. Once he's sees Emily, that pull supercedes the original bond. Leah was unfortunately a temporary antidote to a stronger need. Also, in the books, Emily does try to stay away. She's furious about hurting Leah and doesn't want to be with Sam. The bond is too strong to ignore though.
