The only like particularly reactionary group of transfems ive ever really seen or encountered were almost all "femboys", who usually deny they have any commonality with trans women anyway. Other than that the most "right wing" transfem i've ever interacted with was basically a (in the american sense) socially liberal libertarian who pretended to be alt-right to get more money from men while doing sex work. Literally every other transfem I've interacted with has been no further right than milquetoast democrat. I guess maybe you could call anti-civ/posties reactionary, but as it manifests in trans women I'd argue its not really an especially right wing ideology, just a silly one. Where are people getting this idea of this wide spread phenomena of right wing trans women from?

the specter of the racist nazi channer transfem is just a focus-group’d, custom designed way to plug into social justice types transmisogynistic anxieties and connect with bias in community most effectively. it’s usually obvious you’re being insane if you call the trans women you don’t like degenerate shut in incels, so they just talk around it and use different words to construct the same transmisogynistic end point in your head. people on here are primed to think of trans women as universally white and see 4chan as the antichrist, so it’s minmaxing to scandalize and turn peoples brains off to get them to nod along with transmisogynistic othering, regardless of what any of the aforementioned trans women are actually doing or how many transmascs are allowed to do the same stuff without getting killed

it’s a good thing Foreman became Dean of Medicine because if anyone else had tried to replace Cuddy, House would have eaten them alive and spat their bones into the New Jersey sewer system

i have a lot of things to say but to keep it short moffat's writing so often completely lacks emotional weight, either because he fails to insert it or because he removes it without realising

as an example of the former, both the women in this episode have scenes where the sad music swells and everyone's crying and you're meant to be sad along with them, her mum died, the doctor's leaving, they're sad conceptually but i couldn't help sitting there and thinking... i just don't care about this. you've failed to write characters or scenes i can get emotionally invested in and instead reached for the cheapest tricks available (universally relatable sad concepts such as dying parent or ending friendship) and figured that would be enough to elicit a reaction. this is something he comes back to countless times, which i don't want to dwell on here but once you notice he's doing it, it's everywhere.

as for the latter, take the death of trev. he's a likable guy and watching him slowly dying would be quite sad but my immediate thought wasn't "aw oh no :( " it was that i have seen an unfortunate amount of moffat media and all his doctor who episodes so i am 100% certain that this isn't trev's actual end, that somehow his consciousness is gonna get uploaded to a database and live on, so there's no point being sad for him. and what do you know, like 20 minutes later they confirm i was right, which the doctor and the audience learns at the same time (except the doctor learns he's alive before he even learns he died, so he never even has to mourn). moffat's completely removed any kind of weight regarding the character's lives since he never actually just up and kills anyone so his stakes are impossible to take seriously.

"The immortal x mortal relationship dynamic [is about] loving something you know will die. It is about vulnerability, vulnerability in the face of centuries of pain, centuries’ worth of trauma, centuries of experience jading someone. And the strength and vulnerability and hope that it takes to love something after that, when you already know how it is going to end.

That’s the metaphor, right, like we have terrible experiences, we have terrible relationships and you go into a relationship thinking you know how this is going to end but you have to do it anyway and that’s really hard. And the [immortal creature] take on that is pushing it to its extremes, it’s telling a story about someone who has unthinkable level of bad experiences and traumas, who knows for a fact how it’s going to end, even if it goes perfectly by human standards: there is an expiration date. And you have to choose to do it anyway."

philosophically i like to play hard and loose with canon. but also i physically can’t start writing timkon fic until i’ve read all 100 issues of superboy (1994) and all 185 issues of robin (1993) and all 56 issues of young justice (1998) and all 26 issues of red robin (2009) and
