I think a lot of discussions would be made better by recognizing that masculinity and femininity aren't inherently preferred, but adherence to cishet standards is, which is slightly different.

This is why a masculine trans man* or a feminine trans woman* often still face stigma - it isn't that they aren't gender conforming to the gender they are. It is that cishetero standards do not want trans people to exist at all, in any capacity.

#trans #transgender #lgbt #lgbtq #ftm #mtf #nonbinary #transphobia #transphobia tw #it's just frustrating when the conversation is 'oh well [x] is ALWAYS rewarded!'#because in certain contexts it won't be #the sweeping generalization and assumptions will only alienate others who may have similar interests and goals #whenever i see these conversations it does feel pretty antagonistic toward people percieved as 'rewarded' for the way they're treated...#...and it's odd to me because it's not challenging any systems in any way. challenging the systems itself is a very momentous task...#...so while i do understand if somebody isn't ready or able to challenge those systems that doesn't mean the answer is going after...#...individuals. basically this is a branch off the tree of 'is this punching up or just attacking somebody?'

iceman + his concern for maverick post-hop 31

#icemav #top gun edit #ice is a FASCINATING one to watch post-hop 31 imo because while yes‚ obviously‚ the focus is on maverick and his grief and devastation #ice is there the whole time in the background‚ watching. and he's visibly disturbed by what he's seeing. because yeah -#he and mav had a rivalry going and yeah he called maverick dangerous and reckless to his face and he stands by that - he does.#but the problem is that this time - this one fluke freak accident of a time - it wasn't maverick's fault at all.#an unrecoverable flat spin brought on by a compressor stall from ice's jetwash isn't something that maverick could've outflown #by sticking to textbook maneuvers. it was just shit luck and shitty circumstances aligning to create a tragic mishap.#but now - now ice can see the way maverick is unraveling in the aftermath #and i'd bet that on some level it terrifies him to see that.#he's used to seeing maverick with all that brash cocky confidence with the moves to back it up.#he's maybe even had a bit of fun jockeying against that. not that he'd admit that out loud. (yet)#but maverick's spiraling now - a hollowed out shell of his former self - leaking grief and self-doubt and despair everywhere he goes #and it actually hurts to look at for ice‚ seeing maverick like this. seeing how much maverick really REALLY fucking cared under that facade #and wondering if maverick is finally taking the stuff ice said to him to heart‚ but applying it all wrong.#so he watches maverick and eventually that concern builds to a point where he tries to offer an olive branch in the locker room #you can SEE how carefully he gathers himself - how much he's holding back - he doesn't want to say the wrong thing to maverick NOW #he doesn't want to make this worse than it already is. so it comes out stilted. it's earnest - but restrained. he can't find his footing.#he doesn't know where he and maverick stand now but he's sorry - that goose is gone‚ that maverick's going through this‚#that he doesn't know how to help or what to say‚ and - crucially - for his own part in this.#but he wants mav to stick around and push through this. even though he's dangerous. even though he's reckless. ice wants him to beat this.#so when maverick shows up to graduation‚ ice is encouraged. and he's a little warmer. maverick really might pull through.#but then‚ all too soon‚ it's ice's life on the line in maverick's hands. and it scares the shit out of him because maverick's not ready #and now ice - and slider - are going to have to pay the price for that.#and then‚ against all odds‚ maverick pushes through. he comes back for them. he comes back for ice.#and after that...well.#after that‚ ice does know what to say: a vow.#my amvs #linds original

not pictured: every other resident of the island staring, somewhere between visceral horror and childlike awe

#and then everyone died The End :)#my bad i watched a little saya #didn’t finish it yet and don’t know when i will but i already know most of the endings so lol #im not a visual novel person unfortunately #but i do like scary stuff so i can appreciate the meat hallucinations #however whereas saya is a meatbeast of some sort (still not aware of what) I think vlinny is just odd and weird and his body does things #usually i think he branches but a softer alternative could be plausible #I didn’t want this to be an exact copy of how saya blooms so instead it’s a weird ether kind of thing #lolol :3 #vinesauce #vlinny #j.draw

They’re wearing the same outfit

#ace attorney #phoenix wright #gerard way #hesitant alien #some slightly odd tags to put together #anyway I was considering changing my blog header (currently the pinkish/don’t try EP cover as it has been for years) this morning #and then The Realization hit me #and then a tree branch hit me because I was so busy texting my friends about it that I walked right into it

Three gens in and my prosperity hood is really defined by hair colour... If the Sim is black-haired, they're a descendant of the Youngblood family. If they're brown-haired or blonde, they're Fosters, and redheads are the Irvings...

Everyone's brown-eyed, though.

#there is the odd blonde Irving and one single brown haired Youngblood #and of course one of the Youngbloods (well technically a Musgrove as that's the branch) is a redhead #but her mom's an Irving so...#i love genetics #sims #sims 2 #prosperity challenge #barrel's end

ok if I remember to swing by the library after work I will pick up Emily Wilde

#odds are solid I will not remember #and I'm not going to put a hold request on it (mostly because it's so close to end of work day that I'll probably be at the library first)#I checked and it's checked in at all three branches #even IF I remember I won't be able to read anything today because it's dnd night so I'm busy clear through 9:00 or later #however I have a wfh day on Friday and no outstanding projects at present #2024 reading list #<- this is me softly committing lol

Recent ones of these even though they all look the same lol.. forcing myself to document progress..

#I can average like 2500 words a day for a while and then something gets in the way and I don't write for a week or something #which then sort of erases my previous Doing Good At Keeping Up With It lol.. but... alas #Still moving slowly forward...#There's a 'community board' place in game where you can go to look at a few things and some of whats there is little 'odd jobs' the player #can do for a little extra coin (since you can buy items in the game/might need coin).#Thhough of course since it's just interactive fiction/visual novel it's not like... actual minigames or something. Just like..#mini stories of your character going places and doing stuff and having some interactions with the other places in the world #Like for example since modern refrigerators don't exist in this world one of the odd jobs you can do is help with doing ice deliveries #or there's one odd job where you assist a guy recharging the city's main bell tower/time keeping place by helping him go around and replace #the iriminel crystals (kind of like magical batteries - stones that are able to store energy that way and be used to fuel passive #enchantments). or one where you help food prep for the cooks at a nearby automat. etc. etc.#Just little short things to get a better glimpse of how the wider city is outside of just interacting with the main characters. plus earn #a tiny bit of coin. Though because they're so short there's not really branching paths or anything much for choices beyond #usually an optional dialogye menu where you can talk to the person you're working with and ask them personal #or work related questions if inclined to do so. It'd be cool if they were more in depth but.......erugh...#I have so much writing left to do already lol.. Also since it's really just to get money I could have just had them #all be like a single sentence of 'you go here and you do this all day then you come home. + 15 coins. yaay' and thats all #So maybe it's a middle ground to elaborate upon them at all. Just enough extra details to maybe be a little interesting #like ''ooh my character is in a little cart riding through the misty morning forest on their way to deliver ice'' . but also not so much #that it takes away time from like... the literal actual main game lol #ANYWAY. That's what all these are. There are like 10 optional little world exploring/job things you can do. and each I guess seem to be #about 2.500 words ish. That's including the optional chatting menus though. but still. reasonable for a little side thing I guess.#I got finished with one character's quests and stuff so I decided to take a break to work on some of the other little things like the Odd #Jobs and the 8 characters you can find around the world to have short conversations with that aren't actual main characters either. etc.#Then I shall return back to the Main Actual Things. ... augh...... still so much to do...#Which I could also just cut everything extra out but... idk.. since it's mostly all text I feel the need to give more options to flesh out #the actual setting somehow. Since in a 3D game you can walk around and explore the world and stuff. And of course there #are pictures. but it would take me infinitely longer to do detailed art of so much of the entire city youre in or etc. So i guess my versio #of still having some amount of ''exploration'' is just.. set up optional paths where more of the world can at least be Described.#You can't actually walk through a 3d orchard. or an elaborate bell tower. or an elven shrine. But you can Read About being in them LOL

have not updated gay coworkers bc i'm stuck on what happens next: e.g., whether this goes horror ala nightmare country or whether we keep with our slapstick feelings. SUCH good potential re: nightmare country glass house but also that gets sad real fast.

#gay coworkers au #like the odds are high this story plays out in slapstick but i do a one-off diverging horror branch for myself

crossover shipping melliwyk and felix is funny because I can really easily picture them in a longterm happy and stable marriage but with really toxic conflict handling, a happy and stable marriage but someone did an intervention on them and now they can actually communicate in a healthy and constructive way as well, OR divorced

#maybe felix needs more character development through play for me to get a better bead on the odds of longterm outcomes #but honestly it just feels like if you did a multiverse episode of their lives these would all be equally likely branching timelines #sometimes they make it work-- some of the times better than others-- and sometimes they don't. Depends #the specific ways they separately suck at interpersonal conflict makes it real easy to just keep doing it without reaching a breaking point #but that doesn't rule OUT a breaking point #and also it doesn't rule out someone being like 'you CANNOT keep fucking behaving this way. get marriage counsellings idiots'#my OCs #felix and mel
