This is true I think, everyone just has very normal and even-minded thoughts and opinions about transfeminine sexuality
No honestly I think it’s REALLY important that people see this. Literally the exact same post, sans trans people, and it didn’t get flagged.
[ID: image in the OP is a reply by telltaletypist reading “if there’s one thing I know about being a trans woman it’s that absolutely no one gets weird or judgy at us for expressing sexual desire.” Image in the first reblog reads “Request community label review. We have determined that your post contains content that would be better suited with a Community Label. While it does not violate our Content Guidelines, a Community Label has been added to your post so that it is only presented to those who wish to view that material. If you think this was done in error, you can Request Review to let us know. Please include a short explanation with your request:” In the space available for comment, the OP has typed in “come on.” The image in the third reblog is a post by sounddesignerjeans with the exact same reply and comment, except that “trans woman” has been replaced by “man” and “transfeminine sexuality” has been replaced by “masculine sexuality.” A self-reblog by sounddesignerjeans adds onto that post “By the way, this post has been reported as missing a community label by several people and still isn’t marked mature. So it’s not even that the original post got reported and this one didn’t. Tumblr’s official stance is that trans women are considered explicit content. demilypyro, whose reblog of that post is the one the screenshot was taken from, has tagged the post ”#oh wow". The post has 875 notes. End ID]
doctor who quotes that rearranged me atom by atom as a 13 year old
Image description: text reading “The Doctor: Because every time you see them happy you remember how sad they’re going to be. And it breaks your heart. Because what’s the point in them being happy now if they’re going to be sad later. The answer is, of course, because they are going to be sad later.” End ID
Tumblr is giving us a lot of different dashes but the thing is no one wants “for you” so what I propose instead is you give me the ability to make mini-dashes with specific subsets of people I follow. Let me follow 300 people but then sort them into category. Let me have one dash for all my aesthetic stuff, another for news, another for my weird feral friends. Am I the only one who wants this? Maybe. Give it to me anyway.
I was a pretty weird outcasted child so one of the greatest wonders of my adult life has been realizing that you can just go someplace and meet some people and casually make some friends, and they might not be in your life forever but you can hang out for a while, and then you can go somewhere else and do it again, and again, if it doesn’t work out no biggie, etc.
Also there’s no point in your life where the window on making friends just closes. You’re never going to hit an age where that’s that, you’re done making friends, you’ll never make another one again. Seems pretty academic but honestly I think it would have saved younger-me (and particularly university-aged me) a lot of stress and worry if someone had just sat me down and told me this.
can we talk about that “this isn’t how I imagined reuniting would go”? how did you imagine it imogen? how many ways did you imagine it, alone at night, when frida and fcg were together and deanna and chet and fearne were distracted. did you imagine a grand romantic confession of love? laudna actually confessing to you first? did you have a speech planned and in the moment decided to just go for it because laudna gave you that chance? how many ways did you imagine it? all alone at night with the circlet jammed on your head keeping your thoughts in as much as everyone’s thoughts out. imagining kissing laudna finally. imagining laudna kissing you back. that one sentence was so damn revealing about exactly how much pining she was doing the whole time they’re apart and i’m obsessed with it.
imogen and laudna embody both “i can fix her” and “i can make her worse” simultaneously and i can’t wait to see what their tether/anchor dynamic unleashes
I can’t remember if I ever actually posted about this, but…
Ever since Matt first described the Judicators and their masks, I immediately thought of the descriptions in Calamity about how the betrayer gods basically used up, corrupted, and disfigured their clerics as basically just belief-power batteries. I have to watch [Calamity] again for the actual description but I remember it being gnarly.
I just… have a gut feeling that’s basically what the Judicators are. The weapon of the betrayer gods turned against them. That despicable method used in the name of good. Carefully guarded and limited, but not hidden or eradicated because it’s too useful. Too powerful to just let die out.
I feel like… If anyone ever successfully removed one’s mask… these respective followers of “good” and “evil” would be indistinguishable.
After seeing this post, I looked back at how the DMs talks about Judicators vs. the K'nauth (the Betrayer power-batteries) and.. you’re 100% correct. They’re exactly the same thing.
Brennan describes the K'nauth as people “so devoted to [a god] that it’s not even worth magically dominating them or charming them anymore. They just let [the god] into their soul.” (calamity e2)
Matt described Judicators (only on a nat 20 from Fearne, so this is pretty guarded information) as people who “volunteer themselves, giving everything to the cause, their individuality, their lives, to become a weapon for the Prime Deities.” (c3e43)
Judicators and K'nauth both have physical deformities and share in the motif of destroying their faces. It’s.. they’re the same. The lines between Prime and Betrayer Gods just continue to get blurrier and blurrier..
