my brain cant make a good coherent analysis right now but tonight i am thinking about Lucas and Lilah and tbh i really like their dynamic in the comic (and what we can see of them in the show, even if its not really canon? i kinda see it as like. canon-adjacent.) and i wish we got just like a little more of it

I think they bounce off of each other well with Lucas being cynical and sarcastic and Lilah also carrying some of that back in their banter but being the more optimistic or at least more grounded one, i think their friendship helps kind of bring out a lot more of her character that might get lost if she was purely there to be Ethan's Partner.

Also i think its nice for Lucas to have a woman he's close to and doesn't have a romantic connection with (i have my own opinions on CAD Lucas and his relationship with women in general but that's a long winded rant for another day), they're just legitimately friends and bond over Ethan's eccentricity.

One nice thing to think about is that when Wes dies at the series finale *SPOILERS*, because he was still a Wolfram & Hart employer, the perpetuity clause is still in effect and that means that he'll go the same place as Lilah.

UGHHHH that was Awful man 😭😭 i cleaned the litter boxes including lilah's and im so mad at my mom bruh. when we decided to put a box in there for her she insisted we do it That Day that she decided, which meant it had to be one of the old non-bin ones. it was especially bad because the top and bottom parts didn't even fit together. and she was like "i promise i'll pick up a bin one tomorrow" guess who DIDNT DO THAT and i had to have that tiny non-shielded litter box for a Week. i put a garbage bag down under it because i Knew piss would get on the floor if i didn't, and halfway through the week my dad realized my mom wasn't doing as she promised and he ordered me a box off amazon instead. it finally got here today so i had to pick up the old box and garbage bag and oh my GOD there was piss saturated into that garbage bag it was DISGUSTING. my mom straight up does not understand how important bin boxes are, the cats WILL piss near vertically out of the box because they piss so weird!! anyway after a Lot of cleaning up since piss still managed to get on the floor even with the plastic placed down, i now have a proper litter box there OTL

A newborn baby girl will have to go through life with the wrong sex on her birth certificate after a registrar’s error, which her parents have been told they cannot change. Grace Bingham and her partner, Ewan Murray, were excited to register their first child at the Sutton-in-Ashfield Registration Office in Nottinghamshire last week. But, after nights of broken sleep, they failed to notice the registrar had written the wrong sex on the birth certificate until after it had been submitted. “We were horrified but assumed that, as we saw the mistake just a few seconds after it had happened, correcting it would be an easy matter,” said Murray. “But although the registrar apologised for her mistake – and the area manager also apologised – it turns out that birth certificates can’t be changed.”

this article is interesting because it demonstrates that cis people can very easily apply structural thinking to sex assignment - this couple immediately identifies that their daughter, having mistakenly been assigned male at birth by the registrar, will have administrative problems in employment, education, travel, and so on. they pretty adeptly identify the foundational role that sex assignment plays in the administrative and civil functions of a state, and how incorrect sex markers effectively produce a ‘rational’ reason for discrimination within these administrative and civil arenas:

The General Register Office (GRO), which is responsible for administering all civil registration in England and Wales, and the Home Office have both confirmed that Lilah’s birth certificate cannot be reissued, although an amendment can be made in the margin of the original document. But Bingham said this is not enough. “People reading a birth certificate might easily miss a tiny note in the margin – which means that Lilah could be regarded as male when she applies for school, her passport, for jobs – for everything that she needs a full birth certificate for.”

And given that this was published in The Guardian, this article makes zero mention as to why it’s impossible for this couple to receive an updated birth certificate with correct information (something the author notes was possible to do a year ago), but the reason is obviously transphobia. 

Now one might ask why there’s no exception for cis people whose birth certificates were recorded incorrectly at birth, but this reveals the instability of cissexualism. How would you determine who is a cis person with a mistaken birth certificate, versus a trans person who wants to change their mistaken sex assignment record? Sure, you could say well, this is an infant, of course she’s “really” “biologically” female (something the parents argue in the article as grounds for having their child’s birth certificate re-issued), but 1) that certainly can’t be argued for in all cases, 2) 'biological sex' is understood by medical doctors as alterable through hormones and surgery, which trans people are often required to undergo in order to change their records, and 3) binary sex assignment is already imprecise and discretionary, particularly if infants have sex characteristics that don’t conform to binary F/M assignment standards (which is part of how the category of intersex emerges, framing this failure to conform to state census categories as a biological defect - and in fact, many intersex people do not discover they are intersex until the onset of puberty or later, at which point they are even less in luck if they want to change their sex assignment - and if they don’t, if they are cis but have sex characteristics that do not conform to cis standards, they will be discriminated against anyway). 

Even setting aside the issue of transgender and intersex people for a moment, states fuck up all the time in administration! you've probably either experienced this directly or know someone who's had some kind of record fucked up by the government at some point in their life. If you get married they could fuck up changing your last name, fuck up your disability status, record your social insurance number wrong, print the wrong address on your driver’s license, fail to acknowledge you as a dependent when filing taxes, incorrectly mark you as having graduated when you’re still a student, fuck up your immigration paperwork, record your name wrong during immigration, etc etc into infinity, and this is not even getting into errors that occur when different levels of government pass information between one another. This level of administrative rigidity is purely to punish people who fail to perform cissexualism correctly, and in the case of this couple's child, the administrative error of the state is imputed to them as a personal failure that she and her parents will now have to deal with for the rest of their lives. 

I think the ultimate analysis is not that transphobia will become less precise and hit more "wrong" targets as it expands its reach, but that this is the exact same operational logic as all other liberal state measures - if you encounter a systemic issue, it’s your fault for not avoiding it, fuck you, go away. You’re poor because you’re lazy, you’re unhoused because you’re lazy, you’re disabled because you’re lazy, and your daughter is now administratively transsexual because you’re lazy. In this case, we don’t even need to assume the intentions of the state - they outright say it:

The family complained to the GRO but was told the mistake was their responsibility and could not be fully rectified. “The duty to ensure that information recorded in any particular entry is true is the responsibility of the person providing the information and not of the registrar general or the registrar recording the birth,” the GRO said.
