i want a Superman story about Superman realizing she's a trans woman. how would she tell people? who would she tell? how could she tell them? through what possible ways would she transition? Kryptonian biology may not necessarily be compatible with human hormone replacement therapy and needles are certainly out of the question. if she figures it out, at what point does her presentation change? superman can't take a break, people need her, even if her haircut is getting awkwardly long and her body is uncomfortable to be in. everyone on earth knows who Superman is, knows her face. is her secret identity threatened if Clark Kent mysteriously starts to transition at the same time as Superman? if she only lets one be publicly out, which one? and what would it feel like to put on that costume -- in either case -- if so? if someone tries to attack her on the street, as Ms. Kent, how does she hide her secret identity? how would the world itself react to someone with the strength to juggle planets being a tranny? with her super-hearing there's nothing she wouldn't know about what people are saying, nevermind what's being written in the press. how does SuperMAN, one of the most definitive icons of masculine indomitability and resilience, cope with changing? would her strength, her confidence, her ability to do anything suddenly be used against her? why can't she be more like wonder woman? why is voice training so hard even for someone with super-ventriloquism? does anyone know what it's like to be able to run faster than a speeding bullet and leap tall buildings in a single bound but to not be able to find a cute pair of shoes that fits? to be indestructible but afraid to use a public bathroom? would even the most powerful person on earth not feel just as helpless as i do?

i want to stress that it is crucial, like genuinely imperative, for this story in my mind that magical super special magic sci-fi kryptonian HRT that instantly rewrites Kent's DNA does not exist. it is not on the table. the entire thing is that Kent would have to transition slowly and awkwardly just like everybody else while also bearing the nonstop pressures and responsibilities of being "The Man of Steel" to literally every single human being on the planet. she doesn't have time to agonize over whether her shave was close enough before leaving the house if a plane is about to fall out of the sky

again i think some people are fundamentally missing a key point. this would be a story about how violent of an idea it is that a woman cannot be "Superman" and "Superman" cannot be a woman, and the myriad social forces that actively and passively enforce this ideology on everyone, including the very real and very strugglingly transgender Kent. it's about the vulnerability and frustration of it all, it's about secret identities and shame and choice and the unfair burden of tact, and all the superheroics stuff would just kind of a framing device. i swear to god give me a two week vacation from work and i'd have a script written

has anyone noticed recently that it's expensive

times like these really make you appreciate pouring river water in your socks

A small addition I wanna add to this, The Monkey D. family is LONELY Luffy as a child was lonely, but because he had a crew and friends who he was free to open up to, he managed to be happy and free. Luffy thinks he deserves to be here and free. Dragon has a revolutionary, and despite being a 'family' of outcasts, Dragon would never allow himself to call them family because of his guilt as a former marine and how any of them can disappear the next day. Dragon does not believe that he deserves happiness. Garp has his subordinates, but that's what they are to him, subordinates (pals at best). He always butts heads with them and can never relate or confide in them because he has a power gap and both him or the other person can never see eye to eye. He has no one, Garp believes he does not deserve to be human. Garp and Dragon are very much destined to be unhappy because they refuse to change and have already lost their chances to do so. All that's left is the image they wanted to be seen in.

got chased by a skeleton but when they caught me they just gave me a kiss and hug. turns out it was an xoskeleton.

Have you ever considered that hell is inside of Barf?

one detail i think is important to point out: if you look at the video frame by frame, you will see that his pants come off
