“why don’t they teleport back” because they’re not on the planet where everyone can teleport anymore. try to keep up dumbass

Dispatch hit me in a more personal place than I expected. I related a hell of a lot to Visi. Her ADHD, her anger, her insecurity, the way she identified with villainy.... Some people are naturally assholes. I certainly am. And it sucks when you're a natural asshole but you want to be a good person. Because that's not easy. People say it "costs nothing to be nice," but it's often a lot of hard work. It takes vigilance, reflection, self-awareness, and effort. I do often feel the way she felt in that scene in the park. Like I was put on this earth to be a bad person and there's nothing I can do about it. I'm *great* at being a bad person... but I just don't want to be, y'know? That's not what I want. I want people to be happy to have me in their lives. I want to be the good guy. And that's not natural. I have to work for it, and when I fuck up I have to rely on others to recognize that I'm trying my best. And that sucks. It sucks being dependent on others' forgiveness... It sucks knowing your next fuck-up is right around the corner... But there's no other way to be happy with who I am. So when you put a character in front of me who's going through that exact thing, yeah, it's not even gonna take me a second to press that dialogue option. I won't hesitate. You think you're unforgivable? Well I forgive you.

It became obvious to me years ago after someone tried to use it as a gotcha when I argued for gay marriage a la "any consenting adults" they gave this whole well what about Incest?! and I was like, I mean sure why not? and we went through the sort of arguments above and I never really thought much about it since. it just seems blatantly constructed post hoc

I'm not even into incest in fact I was sexually abused by a relative but you don't see me turning my personal trauma into a weapon against vaguely related situations which are fundamentally different. it wasn't abusive because they were a blood relative it was abusive because they hurt me without my consent

also the knew each other as kids thing is like. okay what about childhood friends? is dating people you met as a kid immoral? what?? it's so blatantly farcical

as for the genetics argument, its also just not correct and based on bad eugenics science. just wait until you hear what people used to say about gay sex being inherently unsafe because of STDs to justify their homophobia

hell, people still say it

get in loser we’re gonna try again despite it all

i could definitely beat the shit out of master chief seeing as i'm a lesbian and he's not a lesbian
