I’ve been doing a LOT of work on Lupus Automata lately and I’m really pleased with the results as I polish this series and prepare to make a full comic :3c!! Here’s some things I’ve done for Act 1, getting a feel of Gorven and the colors and how Kay El’s life has been so far while being stuck there (spoiler alert it’s not great)

Also I’m obsessed with these Lus that my assistant artist n friend @heyapoke keeps drawing. The animal

Trans women suffer reproductive abuse, especially in medical contexts. I was forced to freeze reproductive material when I was 12, being told I would "have to be a man" (words of my doctor) if I didn't visit a fertility clinic. My very first sexual experience of my body was googling how to masturbate at age 12, all because a CIS MALE doctor withheld my access to estrogen unless I froze sperm.

Like. It would be fine if the post said "pregnancy rights" or something similar- but no, it explicitly and clearly says reproductive rights. It explicitly and clearly says that trans women ("people who can't get pregnant") should be excluded from final discussion of reproductive rights.

I shouldn't have to say but this is extremely transmisogynistic: even aside from the example above from my own life, in most of the world transsexual women are still forcibly sterilised in order to transition. We are still forced, non-consensually, to give up our reproductive rights to have or not have children, in favour of the State or the Medical Establishment making that decision.

If you are watching a show/movie from prior to 2010 and it has a man in a dress 99/100 times this is actively a transmisogynistic joke or charicature.

-Peakly from Lilo & Stitch and the Ugly Step-Sister from Shrek are both transmisogynistic jokes. I like the movies too but don't lie to yourselves about this.

If the Show/Movie is made by a queer person or made after 2010 then 6/10 times it is a transmisogynistic joke or charicature.

-Rupaul and Richard O'Brian are both queer creators and both have said and defended horribly transmisogynistic statements and sentiments. Do not fool yourself into believing that because someone is queer or even fucks around with gender presentation, that they are trans positive.

Starvation is another challenge we face ,there is shortage of food in the refugee camp as we can't work in the refugee camp because of discrimination and fear to be attacked on our way

Another challenge is shortage of medical care ,most of the time transgenders we are discriminated in UNHCR hospitals by the doctors and other refugees ,so we find it difficult to go there for treatment, it will be better when one gets support and go to private hospitals where they will give treatment for money which is safer

Another issue is shelters ,we have few shelters with us ,when it comes to night ,some of us sleep outside ,we live the rooms for the lesbians to sleep inside and the little children ,if support is got ,we can add more shelters and also get a fence built with iron sheets for our safety

In “The southern Raiders” we get this exchange about whether or not Katara should have killed Yon Rah.

—

Aang: Zuko told me what you did. Or what you didn't do, I guess. I'm proud of you.

Katara: I wanted to do it. I wanted to take out all my anger at him, but I couldn't. I don't know if it's because I'm too weak to do it or because I'm strong enough not to.

Aang: You did the right thing. Forgiveness is the first step you have to take to begin healing.

Katara: But I didn't forgive him. I'll never forgive him.

This exchange is hardly perfect. The showrunners infamously said that Aang was being her moral compass here, which is just not the truth at all, and we get this sort of implication afterwards that it would have been bad for her if she’d made the other choice.

But even with all that aside, it’s an interesting and mature moment. The episode almost sets up a whole “I am imparting the lesson” moment with Aang saying Katara choosing to leave Yon Rah alive was the right thing, and that forgiveness is good. But she doesn’t decide “You’re right, I did the right thing.” she says “But I didn’t forgive him” and just like that the dichotomy of the episode is broken. She didn’t choose revenge OR forgiveness. And that’s okay.

But in the end, Avatar’s debate was pitched at 12 year olds, it had no choice but to bluntly tell you that obviously it would have been bad to kill someone. Anyone who’s treating Avatar as the height of mature storytelling needs to broaden their horizons. Hazbin by contrast should be able to explore these ideas with much more respect and maturity. I mean there’s no one stopping them, so they should at least be able to lean more towards challenging the audience. Right? Right?

Anyway here’s a scene from “new pentious” about whether or not we should go to war or seek redemption.

—

Vaggie: Are any of you here for redemption?

Female Guest #1: I thought this hotel was where we came to kill angels.

Female Guest #2: Yeah, who cares about redemption? That sounds like work.

Charlie: No. I-I know angels aren't like, the best, but we shouldn't kill them. We need to be better than them, right?

Female Guest #2: [Gasps] Oh, my God!

This exchange is fucking stupid.

Notice how before, it was Aang and Katara. Two named characters who were invited to feel equal amounts of sympathy for, presented in as respectful a manner possible by the narrative, both of their perspectives taken seriously. This sequence has Charlie bouncing her ideology off of an unnamed figure who is portrayed as vapid and lazy. She’s not angry, she’s not even bloodthirsty, she’s just too lazy not to kill her oppressors.

And the conversation does not even consider the idea that you can be a better person AND fight the Angels, even though Charlie literally did that last season. And I am not cherry picking. This comedy sequence is one of the only times this debate happens. The character of Vox does not get debated on the issue, he simply speaks over everyone while they uselessly sputter “that’s not true” over and over again.

And the comedy of this scene is specifically used to have Charlie and her ideology presented as the straight man to the crazy people who disagree. This does not happen in Avatar in ANY scene involving a moral dilemma. Even if you could argue an episode is being biased, it never presents an ideology as a funny joke except on the great divide, understood to be the worst episode of the show, and one that never carried over into the rest of the show. That argument over redemption vs war is the central conflict of the series.
