There is no next dimension this week, but have a little Sasha I did

[yupekosi]

anyway. data startrek is trans coded because he's constantly being dehumanised and misgendered (called 'it') and told he can't possibly understand things that are supposedly inherent to the human (cis) condition and asked invasive questions about the way he works by complete strangers and talked about like he isn't standing right there and legally does not qualify as a person and is told even by his friends and coworkers and allies that no offence, data, you're a machine. he's also just transgender in general but that's not my point here

had a fun little conversation at a party about ds9 and the guy and i agreed on almost everything (he's a big sisko fan, makes me trust him), except at one point while we were talking favourites he sort of casually went "i imagine julian bashir is nobody's first choice" and i was like. oh honey. you haven't met the trans nd trekkies have you.

mercymorn and augustine are somehow in the most lesbian relationship in the lesbian book series despite both not being together or lesbians

[m1ssunderstanding]

nothing intelligent or helpful to say about it really but we had SUCH a good time at One Hand Clapping. Everyone should go if they've got the chance.

Okay, Lily. I've turned on asks. If you're such a brilliant thinker and writer, ask me these questions:

Why do you hate dark, serialized stories so much? What makes you think the creators are so desperate trying to prove something to edgelords when they actually want to tell compelling stories?

Why did you accuse David Gaider of being a "misogynist MRA" and "fascist sympathiser?"

Why did you accuse Rian Johnson of being a "sexist", "racist" and "Nazi apologist?"

Why did you accuse Bryke of being "fascist apologists" and "abuse fetishists"

Why did you accuse Dana Terrace of being a "sexist" and "racist?"

Why did you accuse ND Stevenson of being a "fascist sympathizer" and "abuse-incest fetishist?"

Why did you personally attack Rebecca Sugar and call her a "sexual predator" and "closeted Neo-Nazi?"

What made you think attacking any of these creators was acceptable? What did they ever do to you?

Why did you lie about Steven Universe being "pro-status quo, anti-gay Neo-Nazi propaganda?"

Why did you lie about The Legend Of Korra being "pro-status quo, Nazi-sympathizing torture porn?"

Why did you lie about She-Ra being "fascist incest porn?" If Catra and Adora were really sisters, you would ship them non-stop like you do Gorion's Ward and Imoen along with Zuko and Azula.

Why do you dismiss ALL anime as being nothing but "misogynist pornography?"

Why do you think Astarion, Hunter and N are the same as Kylo Ren when they're clearly nothing alike?

If you truly claim to not like The Coffin Of Andy And Leyley, then why did you create a sockpuppet account obsessed with the game?

Why do you want all of animation to be nothing but Hamtaro and the Get-Along Gang?

oh my god can ppl find a reason to ship/not ship something that’s in the middle of a ship war w/o trying to make out the other character to be the worst person in existence? honest to god it’s not that hard to say “this ship doesn’t work for me bcz of xyz” u rlly do not need to go “uhhh actually no it’s not character a that’s a horribly racist asshole who thinks SA is cool (that’s so stupid wtf, they barely did anything), its character b. did u not see how they [smallest thing possible]??? can’t believe the hypocrisy u have going on here…” like seriously PLEASE u do not have to justify urself to this level it just makes everything 10x more annoying

happy storyteller saturday! colour wip and prophet story obviously deal with intense and tumultuous sibling relationships... are there any other significant sets of siblings in your stories? what about sibling relationships appeals to you from a writerly perspective? :3

Happy STS and happy vacation to you specifically :)

,,,, yknow,,, what's crazy,,, is I didn't even realise how heavy sibling relationships feature in my stories until you sent this. Hm. Hmmm!!!

I will say Theo/Cain, Red/Elan and Brighton/Bernadette are the most significant sibling sets - TSS also has Andy/Abelia (dead) and Dolly/Olly, but they're not as heavy a theme? Just around. Hanging out, yknow?

I have no idea what draws me to sibling relationships. I suppose there's something about the 'I hate you more than anyone else in the world. I would die for you' outlook is fascinating to me. See how far it can be pushed until someone snaps. See how it can be corrupted. See if it can be corrupted. See how you can ignore the love until it's too late, and then mourn so furiously.

Cough, cough.

I guess? Maybe? I do it a lot because uh. I've got a fair few siblings! Four of them, in fact! Whole range of siblings to contest with and manage and reflect on.

Now, I’m not saying I use explorations of Eddie’s implied neurodivergence as a way to process my own complicated feelings about growing up in a neurotypical society, but I do think about Eddie having undiagnosed ADHD/Autism a lot.

Can we talk about how in ND, Apollo was about to basically send Touma to the glue factory up until Artemis saved him?
