Adaptations focus on Carmilla as just an Evil Seductress so much that they neglect that she has abilities that rival Dracula's and has ones that he doesn't.
She can shapeshift into a terrifying giant cat, into a black wraith. After biting she can join the dreams of the one she bit, she can manifest into an apparition like a psychic vampire, slip through cracks and locks. Physically, her one bite will normally kill within days (which seems to be part of her vampirism). Weapons shatter before her; she's indestructible at night. Even at day, she has super strength and can toss a grown man away like a mosquito, despite her languidness she'll dodge and block blows from trained army men, can disappear from sight without a trace, and her grip can numb one's limbs permanently.
She has no weather control like Dracula, which is a unique trait from having sold his soul to Satan with top grades. But she has nothing to envy about him. And she's only 150ish, and not a trained wizard and a vampire out of desire to become a powerful undead warlord, but was forced to become one.

Some women are conditioned to be fragile and weak, and to believe that it's a sin to outperform a man. Her feminism would involve allowing women to be strong.
Some women are expected to be strong at times when they can't. Her feminism would involve reassuring her that it's okay to not be strong.
Some neurodivergent people are raised to believe that they're too stupid to ever amount to anything. Their disability activism would involve reassuring them that they're capable.
Some neurodivergent people are raised to believe that they're smart and gifted, and are expected to live up to impossible standards. Their disability activism would involve allowing them to fail, make mistakes, be stupid, etc.
Some children are constantly reminded "you're the child, I'm the adult" in order to deny their autonomy. Their youth rights activism would involve treating them like an adult at times when they feel ready for it.
Some children are treated like adults in order to justify increased expectations or to downplay abuse against them. Their youth rights activism would involve allowing them to be a child.
There is no one-size-fits-all solution to oppression. Each individual person's experience is different. Whatever trauma is caused by their oppression, the activism should focus on undoing it.
there's a stage in sandwich consumption where it's falling to pieces & you're desperately cupping it in your hands & it's like this poor wounded animal that is covered in mustard & wants to die

back on my diasomnia bs again lads!! Lilia’s birthday isn’t until January but I wanted to get this out while it was still in my head and before they ruin all my headcanon. not pictured: Yuu insisting that the Fudgie the Whale cake is absolutely essential to the process.
also I don’t care what canon says, in my heart Crowley made birthday parties mandatory after episode 4 in a half-assed attempt to boost morale. by the time we hit episode 7 there’s going to be compulsory bingo nights that nobody finds fun except Trein probably.
You know, I'm somewhat of a literary analyst myself
When I realised what this was referencing I screamed 😭
Hi my name is Citizen Chauvelin and Im a Citizen of Paris (that’s how I got my name) i have piercing black eyes like a falcon in the dive and a lot of people tell me I look like Maximilien François Marie Isadore Robespierre of Arras (AN: if u don’t know who he is get da hell out of here!). I’m not related to Marguerite St. Just but I wish I was because she’s a major fucking hottie and has an earring. Im a ruthless, amoral patriot who firmly believes that the League of the Scarlet Pimpernel is a threat and a mockery to the French Republic . I have very pale white skin because you cant get much sunlight covered in the blood of monarchists . I’m also . The former ambassador to the United Kingdom where I met Sir. Percy who is also a hottie and my nemesis 5ever. I’m a revolutionary (in case you couldn’t tell) and I always wear all black like the death that will come to my enemies. For example today I was wearing Black tights with black shoes, a black tailcoat, and a cravat, and carried a copy of The Social Contract in my coat pocket. I was walking outside the Place de la Révolution. It was raining so there was no sun, which I was happy about. The scarlet pimprnel stopped another executition stared at me. I put up my middle finger at him.
