"is he a tall lanky boy" tailed by slenderman

Sharing my post from facebook

Today is trans visibility day

Outside of being a step-parent of two awesome kids who are under the trans umbrella, I too have realized recently I am under the trans umbrella.

PCOS being considered intersex notwithstanding

I am autigender and specifically a demigirl/demiwoman. 95% of the time I identify with my biological sex (again PCOS notwithstanding bc that's new info to me). The other 5% I barely want to be perceived, let alone perceived femininely. I classify it as identifying as a potato, but it's in the nonbinary spectrum.

I qualify it with autigender as I am realizing how I present myself directly relates to my masking.

Anyways I think Patrick Loller explains autigender best so I'll include their video explaining it

[featherlesswings]

Comedian Patrick Loller talked about how their brain tried to do this to him when he figured out they’re nonbinary! He has PTSD, ADHD, very likely Autism, and they were like, “the rhetoric I’ve been taught my whole life is telling me I can’t ALSO be nonbinary, because that’s too many things!”

I think this comes from ableist, transphobic, and especially racist and otherwise minorityphobic (is that a thing or is that just fascism?) media normalizing trotting out the one note Disabled or Neurodivergent character in the Very Special Episode or having The Cool Boy, The Nerd Boy, the Black Boy, The Funny Boy, The Girl, The Wheelchair Boy, The Brain Works Differently Boy, etc in every movie & tv show for decades. Have you ever noticed that the Autistic people we see in everything tend to be white (and predominantly male)? Likewise people who use mobility aids, have severe anxiety, etc. because they can’t be a POC AND disabled! Or what have you. That’s too many things! I think this concept or rhetoric or whatever has effected Boomers so much that they belittle their adult children and employees and patients, and make us feel like we shouldn’t speak out about all the facets of our inner selves, because Someone Might Notice, and then we will get bullied or bring shame to the family for being Too Much, or something.

You’re not too many things. People are complex! I have C-PTSD, ADHD, depression, am Nonbinary, pansexual, have children, and a lot of other things! We’re whole fully rounded people! Don’t let anyone tell you you can’t be 5 things or 20 things or 175 things.

why do people always only expect you to have one thing. one disorder one pet one gender one pronouns one name one favorite movie one crush one best friend. like why do I have an inventory limit

Not Like Other Girls

“One of the weird things about being human,” Patrick Loller said, “is that our entire existence is subjective.” When I was growing up, a lot of the stories I consumed fell into the “not like other girls” trope. Of course, when I was growing up, most stories had male protagonists because “girls will read books about boys but boys won’t read books about girls.” Before we had feminism, we had,…

Patrick is a blessing actually

[jeanjauthor]

This is indeed a rule followed by most nations’ military units...but not by all combat-capable / military groups.

Now, did I consider this rule sacrosanct in my military science fiction?  ...Up to a point.  First Salik War, absolutely, yes.  Second Salik War...well, most of the Alliance militaries also followed this rule for the Salik, except they would only tend the Salik when the fighting was over, because a wounded Salik could and would still attack, even if it was a medic coming to tend them.  Not always, but it was a definite solid percentage of the time.

(Dying with a bite of flesh “from a worthy foe” was considered an honorable death--more honorable than having surrendered, though surrendering was not automagic-deep-shape for them in, say, the Klingon sense (”Dishonor! Disohonor on you! Dishonor on your cow! Dishonor on your offspring for 3 generations!!!”))

Knowing what she knew, Ia only saved Salik lives where the needs of the future demanded it....and (spoiler alert) toward the end of the Second Salik War...the order was to coup de grace all wounded Salik soldiers, if they could not be immediately be shipped back to pure Salik territory.

And then, well...either you’ve read the rest and know what happened, or you still need to read the rest and find out what happened.

You may have seen videos circulating on the Internet that allege COVID vaccines are being used to inject individuals with microchip technology. You know, to track them and alert government officials of their whereabouts.

Ships of the Northern Fleet: 5 Best Episodes from the TikTok “TV Series”

https://ift.tt/eA8V8J

This Ships of the Northern Fleet article contains spoilers.

Ships of the Northern Fleet, the steampunk sky pirate TV show from the naughts, has seen a recent fandom resurgence on social media platform TikTok and in other corners of the internet. Adapted from a book series of the same name, SotNF ran for six seasons before taking its final bow in 2013 and sailing off into the sunset… until the inevitable reboot or revival.

In honor of the epic, pre-Game of Thrones fantasy series that launched a thousand queer ships, we’re listing up our five favorite episodes. So put on a playlist of your favorite sky shanties and let’s get started, Fleeters. Updraft!

“Clouded Tides” (Season 1, Episode 22)

It took Ships of the Northern Fleet an uneven first season to find its tailwind, but we get our first real glimpse at what this series would become in the Season 1 finale, when the show really starts to build out its mythology. “Clouded Tides” is the first time we hear the phrase “Four Fleets,” and when TV show viewers who haven’t read the books begin to understand that this world is so much bigger than the ongoing feud between the True Winds and the Necronauts. Captain Barnabas (Christopher Lee) and the Ropeswingers may have been our entry point into this world, but, by the end of Season 1, we know that Captain Hellman (Nathan Fillion) is the least of the Rosemary‘s concerns. The Apparatus is growing, and it doesn’t care which of the Four Fleets anyone belongs to.

“The Daggers” (Season 3, Episode 4)

While many viewers were unable to ever forgive The Daggers for setting into motion the events that led to Captain Montgomery’s death, the SotNF writers did their damnedest to give these “pirates amongst pirates” a redemption arc in the form of Season 3, Episode 4, which retells the events of Season 2 from the perspective of a random member of the Blade Admiral’s crew. Whether or not the ambition succeeds is up to each individual viewer, but if you tell me that you didn’t shed a tear when Duchess Mildred sings “Soon May the Wellerman Come,” I won’t believe you. That this episode also heavily features Blake (David Tennant) doesn’t hurt either.

cnx.cmd.push(function() { cnx({ playerId: "106e33c0-3911-473c-b599-b1426db57530", }).render("0270c398a82f44f49c23c16122516796"); });

“I Was Never Alone” (Season 4, Episode 17)

“She’s buttoned up, Cap. Let’s fly.” The episode that sees the death of bespectacled badass and fan favorite character Annie (Catie Osborn) may be a controversial one to put on this list, but it’s hard to argue with just how much this episode raised the emotional stakes of the SotNF world. Annie dies not in an epic battle, but in a double-cross gone wrong—a plot twist that is a change from the source material and shocked book readers. It’s a bold choice for the show, and one that implies any one of these characters could die at any time. (Hey, at least she saves the dog!)

It’s worth mentioning that Annie’s death is considered by many as yet another unfortunate example of the “Bury Your Gays” trope (Annie is explicitly depicted as being “pansexual” in the show, even though she never uses that word to describe herself), though queer audiences tend to be forgiving of the show’s choice as the series includes so many canonically queer characters.

“With Lambent Voice” (Season 5, Episode 16)

It’s honestly surprising that this show took so long to do a musical episode, given how integral sky shanties are shown to be to this world and its characters from the very first episode, but if we had to wait five seasons to get this television masterpiece, then it was worth it. Originally pitched in the writers’ room as a cross between Battlestar Galactica‘s “33” and Buffy the Vampire Slayer‘s “Once More With Feeling,” “With Lambent Voice” sees the crew drawn in by a siren during a routine mission through the Marish Abyss.

The fact that it all ends with Lady Ava deciding to leave the ship for good to live happily with her siren bae for the rest of her days is not only a clever and unexpected subversion of siren mythology but was a landmark moment in the depiction of queer characters on TV.

“We Need to Talk About Glurp” (Season 6, Episode 9)

It’s no secret that Ships of the Northern Fleet‘s final season was, um, not good. But, amid the mess that was Season 6, we got a few truly stellar episodes, including this midseason standalone, which sees the crew trying to decide what to do with Glurp (Patrick Loller) after he uses The Gravity Invalidator to take down The Singing Crone, leading to the deaths of dozens of siren mutants.

For SotNF to take a much-maligned character like Glurp, who was originally created in a misguided attempt to draw in a kid audience, and use them to tell a tale about community accountability that challenges most of contemporary TV’s use of the “redemption arc” is inspired and inspiring. All I can say to that is: “Swiggity swaggity, let’s blow up gravity.”

Pretty good advice, really...

And yes, “bait ‘em into an argument” is NOT the same as “debate them.”
