I Would Totally Read It - Tumblr Posts

Twilight AU where Bella’s gift is that she’s a literal magnet for danger. Bears show up at the cottage all the time (much to Emmett’s delight), she’s totaled 3 vehicles already because cars seem to swerve to hit her, the bonfire Seth made in the backyard exploded when she got too close, and she’s completely given up on trying to go into the city anymore.

It’s not until Edward helps her realize she might be able to control the magnet inside her that it actually starts to seem like a gift instead of a curse. She attracts danger but just like a real magnet she can adjust to repel danger as well. It helps when she visualizes the magnet in her mind. The more she turns the same end of the magnet towards the danger, the stronger the danger is pushed away.

Now she can make cars run off the road to avoid her, fire bends away from her, and when she goes shopping in Port Angeles the bookstore she’s in is the safest place in the city.

The other day I was listing off the books on my goodreads list pertaining to feminism at my parents house which went something like this:

Me: I've got Delusions of Gender: How our Minds, Society, and Neurosexism Create Difference By Cordelia Fine, Female Erasure: What You Need to Know about Gender Politics' War on Women, the Female Sex and Human Rights (By several authors and editors), I’m still waiting on Material Girls: Why Reality Matters for Feminism By Kathleen Stock, I really want to get to TRANS: When Ideology Meets Reality By Helen Joyce, and also All the Single Ladies: Unmarried Women and the Rise of an Independent Nation by Rebecca Traister.

My Dad: Don't you ever just read a good fiction book?

Me: Yeah I have 24 new ones stacked up in the guest room. I've read 3 so far this year (2022), but I don't have a lot of time for leisurely academic reading while finishing up my MSN . I do read stories and opinions from other radical feminists on an esteemed website where I can contribute my own thoughts each morning though.

(He looked surprised. I didn't mention the website was tumblr....)
