I think the thing that tickles me the most about that ask about Frost Byte's name change from Hail-Raiser lowkey feeling like a trans allegory is because 1) Frost Byte is literally more fitting for him especially if you have seen the Rankin/Bass Jack Frost design and 2)

Dear is literally right there

Dear, one of the supporting main characters of Glitter and guilt who is literally trans masc and goes by he/him pronouns and approaches being Charmed through the lens of someone who used to think they were a girl and learned "oh wait I actually am not" and learns that magical boys are totally cool and awesome.

LIKE - HE IS RIGHT THERE!

WE DON'T GOTTA RELY ON FROST BYTE - WHO IS JUST A WEIRD LITTLE GUY - FOR THAT TYPA STUFF

DEAR IS RIGHT THERE Y'ALL 😭

HELP SOMEONE IN NEED.

Pride month has always been a month to uplift voices of queer and trans people, it’s a month to enjoy ourselves and be proud of who we are and I want more people to enjoy it with us. I myself am part of this amazing community as a gay trans man.

Today I wanna uplift someone’s voice even with the little followers I have.

“Meet Elle, a 17 year old trans-woman from Algeria. At 15 she bravely came out to her religious extremist parents, unfortunately she was faced with abuse and got sent to conversion therapy. She pretended to conform, finally convincing her parents to send her study in the UK. Hoping to start a new life.

Despite these challenges, Elle has begun connecting with the LGBTQ+ community in London. She found support, friendship and acceptance. She dreams of becoming a makeup artist and living in a world that accepts her. Sadly Elle’s newfound freedom was short lived. Someone outed her as trans to her parents in Algeria and they cut her off financially immediately. Now without the means to pay her school fees Elle faces deportation back to the abusive household she fled from. This terrifying nightmare looms over her each day.

Your donation or your voice can help Elle stay in the UK, continue her education and live a life free from abuse and shame. Anything can help.”

Under this are the links to her tiktok and her Fund raiser. Please help as much as you can, even by just reposting this post can help reach more people, that’s all I ask of you all.

Okay, it's hilarious how they seem to know the lore of 00 quite well but still go using Trans-Am and decide that 'something' is just wrong, not taking into account that lore-wise 00 generally can't handle Trans-Am without the 0-Raiser. Or it shouldn't work like that in this mmorpg, but it's still the first reason I'd think of if I were them.

[inkisionary]

“So like, here I am, waiting for like, WEEKS!!! For this package to come In dude, and it does, right? It’s a Premium Limited Perfect Grade Trans-Am Raiser—just LOOK AT THIS THING!” Ezreal fumbles with his phone, pulling up the online images of the Gundam, yet, not the one he built…

“It was like. $500! And I was holed up in my room working on it, and Sett shows up and asks what I’m doing, and I show him—AND THEN HE EATS ONE OF THE PIECES. ONE OF THE PIECES OF MY $500 PREMIUM LIMITED PERFECT GRADE TRANS-AM RAISER. ITS NOT PERFECT GRADE ANYMORE. I could build other ones like…” he flips through his phone again.

“The MG 1/100 RX-78-2…or the Perfect Grade Unicorn Gundam 03 Phenex Narrative Version….but man, I was so excited about the Trans-Am Raiser—and I can’t be mad at the big guy bc he has those BIG DUMB EYES…” he gives a heavy sigh. “Whatever, I guess…”

Well, when the popstar said he wanted to talk he wasn’t expecting... this. He pulled off his headphones and paused his music just to have Ezreal go one about how much he loved his model building. Although, Hwei understood the passion behind the work. He appreciated that Ezreal once and a while asked for tips about painting some details on when he was unsure of the rpocess. Which had budded into a friendship built up on the agony of painting minitures and models. Although, regardless, both of the men were satisfied at the finished projects and frequently posted and shared pages to each other.

But to hear all of whatever Ezreal was going on about left his speechless. His eyes slightly wider than normal and mouth slightly open as he tries to find words in response to knowing that his boyfriend eats the pieces to his Gundam models. Although there had to be a reason or a way for the large to so nonchalantly eat a piece of plastic without knowing. Unless Ezreal just let him eat plastic? Was Sett like a dog?

“You let your boyfriend eat plastic?” he says, regardless of the conversation in contrast to Ezreals bouce. Hwei was rather soft-spoken and less animated.

#Onthisday: Jul 2nd, 2015

Title: Cuteness Member - Jet

Jet 🐊✈️ join's in along with his Astroblast crew team, and his Cuteness Mecha Armor, the "Harute" (from Gundam 00 movie - awakening of the trailblazer). 😁

GN-011 Harute Jet Came from the real: GN-011 Gundam Harute

Armament(s):

• GN Cannon Harute possess two large GN Cannons mounted on its back. They have been shown to be capable of firing powerful beams with minimal time lag, and are usable in MS Mode. Although they are often seen firing in rapid succession, they can also fire a more powerful beam combined with the GN Sword Rifles' outputs with a slightly longer time lag.

• GN Scissor Bits At port and starboard, the rear top part of the GN Cannons have 2 compartments that contain 5 GN Scissor Bits in each one, totaling 10 bits. These bits are literally flying scissors with cutting edges lined with the same material as the blades of the GN Sword Rifles. This allows them to store large amounts of GN Particles to greatly increase their damage potential. As melee-type bits, these weapons were designed to move at extremely high speeds to offset their complete lack of ranged-attack capabilities; while in action, they can only be seen as orange and glowing green blurs. Because of new developments in GN Tech, the bits have higher performance and reduced need to recharge with Harute. Ten more can also be equipped with Harute's GN Booster upgrades.

• GN Sword Rifle Harute carries two GN Sword Rifles that can also function as wings. The rifle itself is a retractable gun that slides up and down (at the top handle-end of the weapon) for quick transition between modes. The GN Sword Rifles can also be used as pincer-like weapons for grabbing and bifurcating enemy units. In Pincer Mode, they resemble straight-blade scissors. The weapons' Sword Mode was derived from the XN Raiser's GN Buster Sword design and the newer and more advanced green blade material design for more power.

• Tail Unit Adapted for the Harute, the storage unit for the bombs was removed in favor of more space for the GN Missiles. Harute's Tail Unit can be ejected to decrease weight.

System Feature(s):

• Bit Control System

• Marute System The Marute System (named after it's angelic counterpart) is a MS combat mode as well as a 3 co-processing operating system designed that allows Harute simultaneously.

• Trans-Am System

• GN Boosters A pair of armored thrusters can be installed onto the Harute's legs, granting the unit greater speed and maneuverability for combat. The boosters also have 2 compartments at the knees that contain 5 additional GN Scissor Bits in each one, giving Harute a total of 20 scissor bits.

[goodmode]

(to people who hate young children)

as a young girl-perceived person my only way of getting adults to listen to me about not having a mum instinct - like do not expect me to be the Older Female Look-After-The-Little-Ones Surrogate Mum sorry i do not have the right personality for it - the only way i knew how to portray this was to be aggressive, because adults werent listening unless i made it A Big Deal. so it was all "i HATE children!! babies are STUPID and hearing them cry makes me so angry and violent and i wish everyone was born fully grown” which is, like, you know, a lie, but also the child’s way of going “you won’t let me keep my distance from small and delicate babies that i am uncomfortable being around, and you won’t listen to me when i say i don’t want children of my own Some Day (TM) (C)  so i will make it a huge thing that you can’t avoid addressing. at least if you think i’m just Weird then you will acknowledge i’m standing my ground”

(aside: guys, babies are just little lesser tadpoles. they react to heat and light and noise. and they’re stupid because they don’t know anything yet and they’re also monkey-related so their reaction to most things is to scream so that a caretaker will come save them from the Bad Thing. we all know this. you know this. i know this.)

growing up i had to very carefully separate the childish urge to Be Horrible About Children from I Am Old Enough Now That Being Horrible About Children Will Do Damage.

i don’t know how to articulate this but i’m also trans and i have also come to certain understandings. yes i’m not a Woman Girl Motherhood Mother Lady Female Mother Raiser Of The Young or whatever. i knew this as a child. i know this still. BUT children aren’t the little demons i had to make them out to be defensively to protect myself from doing psych damage to them by being an arsehole on purpose. they are not the ‘annoying little mindless shits’ i would have blogged about at age 13.

what i’ve learned since is: babies are loud and annoying and they shit and it stinks so bad oh my god. but they are absolutely going to turn into people. they are a little larval stage of a person that is about to have opinions.

you grow up to be a monkey with your own life, and you (mostly) get to pick and choose when and where and how much time you spend with the little tiny baby monkeys. your cousin has a baby monkey or your friend has a baby monkey or your niecemonkey is visiting with your grandma or whatever. you can cancel these appointments. you can be around, or not. that is the thing you earn by just being an adult with your own life. it’s marvellous. you choose when you are ready (or not) for these appointments with baby monkeys. you can make excuses and leave. you are no longer at the mercy of Being A Child Expected To Like Babies. it’s gone. you’re free. you are a mammal unleashed.

but when you are around young children. and you will be! please be nice to the children. you remember when you tried to get an adult’s attention and they were talking to another adult about something. you remember when an adult said something to you that hurt and still hurts. you remember these things and you do better. even if you don’t know what you’re doing, listen. the literal and most widely-applicable trick to getting through an encounter with children is to listen. just say very little and go “oh cool!” and let them talk about the Cool Thing They’re Into and look at them and make eye contact and smile. and then you’re done.

sure your job isn’t to Be Expected To Be A Caregiver but you need to reconcile that with the fact that children don’t know a thing about expectation. they just want to be seen and heard and to know that someone’s in their corner. you cannot put your People Want Me To Be A Parent Well!! I’ll Be Horrid Instead mentality upon small children. it is an outdated mentality. you are an adult now. signed, a trans nonbinary adult who doesn’t want children and had to fight for that to be understood

[ex-shark-virtue-005]

I've got 5 planned Gunpla projects (2 MG builds and 3 HG custom paint projects) and I have no idea which one I want to start. It's either build the MG Kyrios or the MG 00-Raise or Custom paint a Trans-Am Virtue, Trans-Am Nadleeh (I DESPISE the Trans-Am version Kits Bandai put out they look gross.), or paint the Seravee Gundam Scheherazade.

(I also have an RG 00-Raiser, 1/100 No-Grade Kyrios, HG Full-Armor Unicorn in destroy mode (the white and green one), HG Reversible Gundam, HG Denail Gundam, Haro Shooting Orange, Lockon Bearguy, 4 other random HG kits, and Omegamon amplified (from Digimon Adventure) that I still haven't built)

[asexual-means-no-attraction]

How do you think, if someone is uncomfortable with all things transgender, should they force themselves to engage with such stuff and like it?

This is gonna be pretty long so I'm putting it under the cut.

Anon continued their ask:

I probably should've explained a bit, I'm sorry if this is rude or insensitive. To me, transgenderism (sorry, I don't know a better word) looks like an extreme form of self-harm. I'm not the most educated, of course, but it looks like cutting off healthy parts of the body, constructing new ones which don't work and often bring serious health problems to the table, hormones also seem to wreck one's body and make a person dependant on them for years, there are articles on long-term harm done by puberty blockers. And I can't understand, why people who are obsessed with losing weight are advised to accept their body and psychological therapy, but if you say anything about therapy around a gender question, they will say you are pro-conversion therapy. But it's sex change that is used in some countries as conversion therapy for gay people. People obsessed with losing weight also say things like "it's not my real body, my real body us hidden under these layers of fat". I just don't understand, although I wish I did, and I wish I was wrong, because otherwise if I'm right, it's really sad that self-harm gets so much approved by the society.

Answer:

-Trans people deal with gender dysphoria. People with body image issues and eating disorders usually deal with body dysmorphia. The way to treat these are very very different. Even when it comes to eating disorders and shit the solution isn't just "learn to love yourself as you are." There is a lot of therapy and various things that can help the person feel more in control while they work on feeling worthy of love and support as they are, as well as learning how to love themselves as they are.

-However, when it comes to gender dysphoria, transitioning is the only solution (not necessarily medical). You do get people who think they're trans when they're not. And for them, medically transitioning can and often will cause irreversible damage mentally and physically. That's why you need to talk to a therapist before medically transitioning. To make sure you're confident that you're trans.

-Trans people will often do a social transition BEFORE they do anything medical (if they medically transition at all). This includes: hairstyle changes, outfit changes, getting people to call you by your actual gender and a new name, etc. Things that don't require any sort of medical intervention. This is a really good way to gauge if you're actually trans or if you're just gender non conforming.

-Medically transitioning is a BIG deal. Like you said, it is completely changing your body. It's not something that should be decided on a whim. And it's done in close consultation with doctors to make sure it's still safe. I have to see a doctor every so often and get blood work done just for my hormones to make sure everything is within safe levels. It took a few appointments before I got top surgery scheduled to make sure that I understood exactly how the operation goes, what it mean, am ok that it's irreversible, and am positive I want to go through with it.

-The alternative to medically transitioning is a lot of mental issues. Before transitioning-- even just social transitioning-- I had major issues with disassociation, depersonalizing, depression, and identifying emotions. This is due to the fact that every time I looked in the mirror, saw my closet, was referred to as "she" or my deadname, it was hard to accept that was me. Something was wrong and I didn't know what. My first thought was not that I was trans. I thought I just had body image issues, so I worked on solutions based on that. They didn't do anything but make me feel worse. I explored the idea of being trans by pure chance. I participated in a drag show fund raiser at my university as a drag king and for the first time actually felt like myself. It took a bit to figure out if I just liked drag or if I was trans. But after socially transitioning I was confident that ya, I am trans. That's when I started exploring medically transitioning-- talking a lot about it with my therapist, friends, and family.

Had I not socially or medically transitioned, I don't think I would be nearly as ok as I am now. I am much more comfortable in my body, a lot more aware of my emotions, and I disassociate a lot less. There are some trans people who have committed suicide because they couldn't transition. There are some with other mental health issues that have developed due to untreated gender dysphoria. Medically transitioning is a big deal, and it's not to be treated lightly. But for actual trans people it's not self harm, it's helping them gain back their sense of self. And help them live as their real selves.

-Someone with body image issues saying "the real me is under a buncha fat" isn't the same as a trans person explaining that they aren't their birth gender. They have different issues going on and thus the treatments are going to be different even if the explanations sound similar.

-social media has created a subgroup of people who idolize self harm. There is some really bad parts of Tumblr and other apps where people glamorize it. And ya, it sucks how much it's been normalized in general. It's something that I am glad is being talked about, I just wish it was being talked about as something that requires support and attention, not something to think is neat.

-For the first part of your ask, about avoiding or not avoiding trans topics. I think doing proper research and listening to trans people's stories is a good thing. It's good to get out of your comfort zone. But I don't think you should force yourself to engage with topics that make you too uncomfortable. Especially online. You should be enjoying your online experience, and if you're not, you need to change how you're interacting with the internet. So long as you treat everyone (trans or not) with respect and don't misgender them then there isn't really a big issue. Just being a decent human being and seeing people as they are is really all I think people really want.

-Not proof reading this, so if there are any errors, f it.
