i am not joking when i say trolls have gotten shittier at what they do. successful trolling and flamebait is a lost art. nowadays they just send you an ask like "it's really problematic that you did XYZ" expecting you to get angry and defensive. and thats because most people have honestly really failed to adapt to this kind of trolling? it keeps working, they keep doing it.

if an anon criticizes you all like "im a lesbian and-" or "im a trans man and-" or "im a poc and-" or whatever thats your queue to disregard everything they say. because you cant verify that. you have to internalize that it's in your best interest to treat all annoying anons as being sent by the same white middle class american cishet guy named kyle, and he just has a lot of free time and no friends.

"but what if it's not kyle! what if theyre actually a lesbian/trans man/poc/&c?" well theyre not looking for open discussion, if they were they wouldnt send an anon ask. so it literally doesnt matter, treat them as if theyre kyle anyway. and remember youre not a public figure youre literally just blogging, you dont need to be "held accountable" for anything.

and same goes for "thoughts on [controversial topic]?" and "why did you do [accusation]?" type anon asks. thats kyle again, hes just gotten bored with claiming every marginalized identity under the sun. if they wanna prove theyre not kyle all they gotta do is uncheck that box.

TUMBLR NATION, I'M BACK WITH A PART 2 TO THIS, THIS TIME WITH:

ELIAS LANYON/WRIGHT :3

Elias is the younger brother of Robert Lanyon by ~2 years.

Elias was born quite odd, with green eyes and bright blond hair, which even in magical England wasn't accepted with open arms. Lanyon Sr and his wife saw Elias as flawed, leading Lanyon Sr to hold some disdain towards him. Mrs Lanyon didn't want another child in the first place, more so forced too because of her hysteria. She somewhat believes her unwillingness is what caused Elias's flaws.

Growing up, Elias had quite an attachment to Robert, who Lanyon Sr always favoured because of how Elias looked and acted. Elias was commonly messy, hyper, and overly emotional, leading to him getting punished over his playful outbursts or emotional breakdowns. Of course these punishments only seemed to do so much, as Elias would be back at it quite quickly. Elias tried to behave better sometimes, yearning for his father's approval, but it never seemed to work very well, as he still always favoured Robert and scolded Elias.

Elias got bullied quite frequently by other kids, usually other higher society kids finding his looks or actions weird or too messy. This quite heavily reinforced Elias's connection with his brother, as Robert was the only person he really had. He'd run to Robert for just about anything, whether to play, talk, seek approval, or when he was feeling lonely and needed comfort. Of course, even Robert could only handle so much of Elias, finding him annoying at times, especially when swamped with lessons from his father.

Lanyon found Elias's yearning for their father's approval quite annoying, especially since he doesn't want to follow in their father's footsteps or enjoy being pushed to do all these hobbies, only to never be good enough. Elias tends to pick up Robert's dropped hobbies, doing them for quite a while, despite not getting Lanyon Sr's attention or praise. Otherwise, Elias tends to be drawn more to nature, playing in the garden and forest, looking for plants and bugs. Of course, he still tries to make friends, ever the social butterfly at heart, but it doesn't get him very far. Robert also refuses to join him in his dirtier way of playing, but sometimes will agree to simply watch Elias.

During family balls, Elias is usually kept separate (something else he gets bullied for occasionally), under the watch of a maid or servant. Lanyon Sr attempts to bring Elias out on occasion, trying to teach him to be more well behaved and proper, but with Elias's aversion to the clothes and his general oddities, this doesn't happen much. It's at one such ball that he meets Henry A. Kell.

Elias takes quite a liking to Kell, even if he seems quite detached and fake at first, playing with him every day. Eventually, Kell starts to open up more, growing attached back, and they quickly become inseparable. Kell does also end up acting as a sort of role model for Elias, making him act better to impress Kell. Of course, Robert grows quite jealous and bitter of this, feeling as if he lost his baby brother, who was what felt like his only real tether. Robert grows snappier with Elias for a long while, hurt that Elias would "abandon" him like that, and he's quite rude with Kell, jealous of him.

As they get older, however, they recouncil, Robert apologizing one night at their families cabin after Elias had wandered out, intent on finding flowers to make Robert stop being mad at him. Robert had gone out and brought Elias back in, who had been crying, and they once again became as close as they were before.

In university, Elias tried dating around, seeing that Robert and Kell were doing it. However, he could never quite find someone that wished for more pure romance (graysexual king) and didn't just wish to use him. After a rough break up, he went to Kell, swearing to never date again, and that's when him and Kell got together. Their relationship was quite smooth from the start, finally acting on the romantic feelings they had for each other. They enjoyed going on little "dates", wandering the garden or having little picnics. It was quite rare to see them apart, but they played the "simply best friends" card quite well.

When it was revealed that Robert was getting forced into a lavender marriage by their father, Elias made sure that Robert and Jekyll stayed together through it, acting as a voice of reason for all of Robert's fumbling thoughts. However, when Lanyon Sr attempted to Marry Elias off as a last ditch effort to save Elias's connection to their family name, Elias fought it. Because of this, Elias was disowned.

Kell and Robert of course still supported Elias, standing beside him through it all. Kell's parents were quite alright with supporting Elias as well, considering they had known him so long. Elias eventually took the last name Wright instead, cutting off his father and any of the other family that now looked down on him even more than before.

After University, his and Kell's relationship continued to flourish, ever soft and loving. They moved on to run a medical practice together, eventually taking over Kell's Parent's practice. Elias finally takes to more "proper" and fancy clothing, feeling more confident to be himself as he's no longer tied to his families name. Elias commonly pops over to the Society of Arcane Sciences, usually accompanied by Kell. He's still very close with Robert, helping out on paperwork or whatever else he can help with.

Overall, Elias is quite a kind, empathetic, and optimistic person, despite everything that shaped him. His love for Dr. Henry A Kell knows no bounds, and he loves what he does. He's far less rowdy, but you can never quite take that energy and sparkle from him. He's still quite fond of nature and plants, having his own garden behind their practice, and a large private one on Kell's family's property.

I also just realized that we really only get the 7 days before the crash to really see the people Curly and Anya were before the crash. It's not even the full seven days. We get the first two and the last two with a gap in the time for what could have gone down.

I just realized how vague it was and how quickly it all happened. They are such small moments and such short glimpses. She's only just told Curly two days before the crash. The next she told Jimmy and Curly had to confront him. It's further implied right after that conversation, Curly goes to collect himself and figure things out and Jimmy immediately crashes the ship, once he's far enough to not stop him, cause he knows Curly would never truly allow it to happen.

But he takes that as the okay to go ahead, because in the long time he's known Curly, that's always been the okay.

The difference in the gaps in the timeline really just paint a bigger less explained but more obvious picture.

spoilers for ofmd s2e8 - a discussion of the decision to do That to You Know Who

i guess my biggest issue is that you should have seen the end coming because it makes sense narratively, so in a way you did see it coming, but the show has spent two seasons subverting expectations and chucking logic out the window, so in the context of the universe they've created it fucking doesn't make sense.

I know it narratively makes sense to tie Izzy's arc off like this, but this show has gone to great fucking lenghts to show it doesn't give a toss about sense or how you're supposed to tell a story. The plot armour has been so thick for two seasons it's genuinely ridiculous, but that's the show and now this is the audience it's amassed. You think I've spent all this time watching these idiots strut around an ocean the size of a bathtub powered by nothing but spite and a gaydar because I value logic above all else? You think I like the show despite it's narrative insanities, not because of it?

Spending a season on Izzy's emotional and mental journey only to kill him off in the end does makes a certain literary sense. Him dying surrounded by the family he finally accepted and who accepted him in turn makes literary sense. His death allowing Ed to let go of the last of Blackbeard makes literary sense.

In the real world.

But we've spent two seasons in Pirate Muppet Land, with it's bathtub size ocean where everyone can find anyone, where wounds heal the moment they're patched up, where crocs and paparazzis paperazzis exists in 18th century. I'm not here for realism, I'm here for the insanity. I'm here for the workplace romcom where this community of queer idiots can laugh and cry and have their drama and, yes, a boatload (ha) of angst but it's fine because it is about them, the plot only there to further their personal journeys no matter how unrealistic that plot turns out to be. They created Something, something new and different and hopeful, and then made a single decision that went against everything they'd built so far because? Logic? I genuinely don't know.

Ultimately I'm happy with this season. I had so much goddamn fun. I enjoyed the ending, though for the personal journeys it concluded rather than story it actually told. This season was way too rushed, for which I assume we should largly blame HBO. The cast and crew did what they could with what they had.

Still though.

I said at some point during this season that I "genuinely can’t see a scenario where they kill off any of the crew, it’s just not that kind of show". Turns out it decided to be that kind of show, with the worst decision they could make. Killing off Izzy does make literary sense. Which, in context of the show so far, makes it goddamn unrealistic.

It's not a good plot twist to pull the rug from out under the audience if the rug is actually a carpet floor you've spent the whole season nailing down.

Hello! Semi emergency trans question:

Is it true hrt makes u infertile? I have known it is a possible as with everything. I am a 24 yr old pre everything (testosterone and top) trans guy and saw the tiktoker rosemary and how she got all her stuff out for future children before she started hrt because she says hrt makes u infertile but idk if she was talking about estrogen or testosterone or both can. I wanna start t but I wnat to have children in the future do I need to start saving to harvest my eggs now or do I start t and then I can go off it ? I know everyone’s different but I just need advice.I’m semi broke so I’m like stressing

From what I know, estrogen can make you infertile if youre transfemme but this depends on a number of factors, like how long youve been on feminizing HRT and that persons specific relationship to fertility. Unsure if it’s reversible if youre off E, but I imagine its only reversible to a point.

Testosterone does not make you infertile and you CAN get pregnant on T or if you stop T to get pregnant. Some transmasc folks do freeze their eggs, but I follow a couple seahorse dads (mainly Kayden Coleman!) who have gotten pregnant and had children. This is why people say testosterone is NOT a birth control and just because it can stop your periods, it doesnt meant you cant get pregnant (chances are just low, but never zero).

Unless your family has fertility issues or you have other medical issues that can impact your fertility, you should be fine to start t, plan when you want kids, and then get off t to start trying. Its best you consult with your doctors and with whoever is going to be prescribing you T, and I would reach out to seahorse dads or find what information you can on trans fertility. There are a lot of informational subreddits online, but there are many seahorse dads online who Im sure would be happy to talk. Queer doulas may also be helpful if you want information on gender-affirming birth care.

hope that helped!
