#They are one and the same

[enkays-den]

An anonymous trans donator asked skizz if he'd say a "trans rights" for pride month and he softly shut it down saying "this channel about good times good vibes, and not anything political. I've got nothing against anything, I've driven that home."

I know it's parasocial to be disappointed that a man in his mid 40s considers queer rights a political topic and it doesn't mean I won't watch him but,,,,, I couldn't help but feel my heart sink a little as that played out live. Skizz says he wants to bring happiness, and joy, and that's literally all this person wanted. A firm, no room for doubt affirmation that Skizz sees and cares for his trans fans. I don't think he's transphobic, but I do think he has a misconception about why saying "trans rights" matters, and why it SHOULDNT be political. Pride month exists for the same reason there's a women's month, and a black history month, and a Juneteenth, and a Veteran's Day. We are lucky to be alive, and we're still fighting for our rights to this day, so we need times to just celebrate our continued existence.

And like,,,, I'm sure that he's heard a lot online but the discussion on trans rights is only political because basic human rights are being denied to trans people for no reason other than bigotry. We want basic human rights for all, for trans people, gay people, disabled people, people of color. We want the standard of care the government and its services and the businesses of our country to be better, more accessible, and affordable for EVERYONE, regardless of gender, race, political belief, religion. The fact that THAT desire is a political matter is because politicians keep denying it.

There were also members of his chat that subtlety ragged on the anonymous donator, saying it was "weird" and "cringe". I have no words for them.

I know Hermitcraft is supposed to be a safe space, and a place to get away from the world's problems, but so you know what is counteractive to that? Bigotry. Transphobia. There are so many young queer fans of hermitcraft, and to say that their existence, this one little piece of affirmation isn't allowed, is insulting and disheartening. Good vibes isn't all free speech and being neutral, it's explicitly saying "you are safe here. I see that you are in danger and you are safe."

I will also leave this video here because I think it's important to be firm about keeping bigotry out of your community, regardless if it means you get less viewers or are seen as "political"

I'm on an autism quest, which requires me to consume every bit of doctor who media I can get my grubby little moth hands on, and while watching through classic who and actively paying attention, I noticed a thing- after 1 regenerates into 2, he's going about things in the TARDIS and the ring he always wore as 1 falls off his finger... hmmmm I wonder where I've seen that before

I have watched Twice Upon A Time a million times and saw loads of parallels between 1 and 12, but bc I'd never paid attention to classic who all that much (or watch the animated stories) I'd never picked up that the ring falling off 13's hand was also a callback, and let me tell you, I have NOT been normal since

If the fact that Walker didn’t even realize Percabeth was a thing until they kissed isn’t enough to convince you that he’s the perfect person to play Percy, then i don’t know what is..

Was rewatching Watching and Dreaming and when it got to the part where Philip is powerless, turning into goo, trying to guilt Luz into helping him he says “Don’t you want to make peace, Luz?”

And I was like “Wait I’ve heard that somewhere else before but where?” Then the realization slammed into me like a subway train-

happy birthday!

It feels like divine intervention or some shit that both the black haired, bi-dumbasses share a birthday.

Like i just KNOW that alex claremont diaz and james fleamont potter would have been besties in another universe!

And they both will bond over autistic nerd aristocrats for bfs and crazy best friends.

You know what's the thing with Pin ? She's a bit of a martyr.

And she's selfless, and loyal and I love her with my whole heart and always will. But since I defended her last week let me say something to counter that.

On the one hand she still has extremely valid reasons to choose what she chose, however when she says that it's her karma, that she deserves a life of misery with Kuea as a payback for all the wrongs she did to Anin, she is unable to understand that by condeming herself, she condemns Anin as well.

Pin doesn't understand that every punishment she inflicts on herself, Anin feels it as well. She thinks so little of herself, she doesn't imagine that Anin might love her so much that HER pain brings her pain as well. She doesn't realize that Anin loves her so much that watching Pin be miserable will make her just as miserable until the end of her life. She doesn't realize that by choosing to not be with her, she's not just condeming herself to be with a man like Kuea in a loveless mariage, she's condeming Anin to live a lonely life, just as loveless. Because Anin will NOT move on ! She will NOT get over it ! Pin seems to think she's replacable, that Anin will be better off without her as if Anin was not genuinely ready to abandon her privilege, her title, her home, her country, her family FOR HER.

Anin doesn't say things just to say them, she means it. She's never been anything but genuine to Pin, absolutely and entirely honest never hiding a single one of her emotions, even her anger, her feeling of betrayal, and even if it hurt Pin.

So yes, Anin doesn't understand Pin's point of view, but Pin doesn't understand Anin's either. Anin doesn't understand how Pin could even think that their social class matter, and Pin doesn't understand how their social class might not matter to Anin.

She wants to suffer alone to save everybody else. But she will never suffer alone as long as Anin is alive.

The song “Belle” from Beauty and the Beast is lowkey Varian coded, like the townspeople singing about how weird Belle is parallels everyone in Old Corona thinking Varian is a witch and being wary/small minded when it comes to his experiments

This was so random but I was listening to Disney music earlier and that song made me think of him 😭🙏

i KNOW we’ve all collectively agreed james potter is a big strong quidditch player but something in me just yearns to picture that man as leo valdez.

LIKE THIS MAN IS JUST SO JAMES.
