Like, yes, it is physically possible for you to come into my house, but I don't want you to. It would be unethical for you to do so. It would be a violation of the rules of polite society, rules that we've all grown up internalising to the extent that they seem like axioms of the universe.

.... You are all so stupid and on the side of censorship.

He got terminated because there's dozens of accounts keeping tabs on him and deciding his fat fursonas are the worst thing on earth while convincing themselves they're not all fucking facists about that viewpoint.

Jumpscare! That hot chick had a cock! This incident is about how everyone except her feels about it.

This is Fern, everyone exclusively refers to them with they/them pronouns, it will never be elaborated upon narratively, they are a static character outside the main cast

Tee hee, I'm an anime girl who's actually a BOY. Have I mentioned I'm a boy today?

Critically acclaimed subplot where a trans man self actualises and then does nothing else for the entire rest of the series. Everyone has long serious talks about his identity in vague terms that are perfectly useless for anyone to reflect on themselves or relate to him in any way whatsoever.

Critically acclaimed story about the tragedy of a 40-year-old trans woman who's so, so brave. Just so incredibly brave. The cis man playing her sacrificed so much of his dignity for this role where he put on a wig and said "respect my choice to live my truth".

Today on Copaganda we ask the important question: Is the murdered sex worker in the wrong sometimes? It's complicated, because penis.

Because Fern is treated as a substitute for representation of nonbinary experiences in general. Fern has always been Fern, their pronouns have always been they/them, and that means as far as the story is concerned they are effectively a cis nonbinary person.

They have never transitioned beyond what the audience has to infer from the fact that they exist and use they/them pronouns. The same trans representation for someone using she/her pronouns literally would not register as trans rep, because she would just textually read as a cis woman.

One Fern is whatever. Many Ferns across multiple pieces of media, consistently treated as sufficient representation, become a problem. Trans "representation" without transition.

Defanged. Nonthreatening. Easy to pretend you didn't even notice. Decoupled from having been born, having been expected to be one gender and then actually being another.

I hate to rattle my can like this again but the only thing I've had to eat at home for the past month and a half has been peanut butter and wheat bread. I also badly sprained my ankle stepping out of a van on Thursday night and had to crawl back to my apartment because it was too painful to walk on it so my mental health has been in shambles and I feel like I'm at a breaking point. If you can spare anything that I can use to help me get some food, I would appreciate it. Thanks.
