Cassius and Darrow are lowk so fruity

I’m sorry but if Titus gets a redemption arc I will stop reading, that is a RAPIST, I don’t care if he’s a red or whatever fucking kill him

Don’t get me wrong, I’m loving this, but why did the author feel the need to create this future society where he can literally make the rules and still let sexist stereotypes exist and mention them every few seconds? And not in a critical way, like he’s showing the wrongness of this inequality, but more subconsciously, as if he himself just thinks it’s a given. Yeah that’s kind of annoying.

How obvious do you want to make your criticism of our modern society?
This book: Yes.
