queer pranks played by lightning

*sexting* I love talking to you

and while im on the bathroom scene ilya was trying to be cruel to protect himself from intimacy + ruin shanes ability to have expectations of him AND IT DOESNT WORK!!!!!!!!! FOR EITHER OF THEM!!!! shane is literally looking at him like he hung the stars like ilya just showed him that he still wants him + still likes him + shane is treating it like theyve shared something sacred and ilya realizes hes literally Right. He isnt crafting that kind of cruelty for anyone else . he isnt pushing anyone else like that . Having shane value that part of him turns it into DEEEEEEP intimacy for Both of them

and hes trying to punish shane by giving him mean mean instructions but hes also soaking up shanes relief and giving him explicit orders <- something hes done purposefully over and over To Calm Shane Down . Which he enjoys partially because HE gets to be the one calming shane down!!! like hes fooling himself!! hes trying to congratulate himself on holding back from letting shane see him but he is doing all his favorite stuff to shane and soaking in all of shanes beautiful reactions + shane is seeing him the whole time

happy day after ilyas birthday to shane hollander, hope your hole is okay king

the well ok of it all

at a certain point the question is simply, are you willing to care about other people being treated unfairly when it not only doesn't directly benefit you, but might actually directly disadvantage you? (or, to be more honest, remove an advantage that you have come to view as a natural part of the world?) the fact is that many people's answer to that is no, and this is a position they have come to hold out of fully rational self-interest. and you're not going to argue them out of this position when the core principles they're acting on are entirely detached from whatever sense of compassion you're trying to elicit.

there's some amount of accidental insight when you see transandrobros sealioning trans women asking for a reason to care about transmisogyny. for men as a class, for transmisogyny exempt people as a whole, there is not a compelling reason to care about transmisogyny. you already benefit from it! you are clearly already highly invested in turning transmisogyny to your advantage and it seems like you want to continue doing so! you as an individual are simply going to have to develop some fucking principles
