given the current climate this pride especially i feel i must mention that i love my trans friends, i stand with trans people in the fight against transphobic legislation and those who would enforce it, and this blog is not a good place for you to be if you do not vibe with that

My mom likes to tell me about how when I was a little kid riding public transport with her I'd always smile and giggle and chat with weird old ladies who smelled like cat pee and homeless folks and strangers dressed in bizarre outfits but any time a tidy and respectable businessman in a suit and tie waved at me I'd immediately clam up, and she takes a great deal of pride in my supposed inherentability to clock personalities but the truth is I do vaguely remember those bus rides, and it was never about the clothes or the hair or the smell, but more because everyone "strange" asked interesting questions and listened to what I had to say and seemed to think about what I said while the neat and tidy and rigid folks only ever acted like they were going through the motions, which was boring as hell and also pretty annoying

a handprint made in concrete is just the image of a hand, it’s not the real thing. or, it’s the absence of a hand, more than anything, the negative space. the casing around where it should be. it’s an indent that was made from something real - that could not have existed without something real - but it’s not the real thing, it’s just trying to be. maybe it’s not even trying. you put your hand there with your mother and the concrete remembers, and the handprint doesn’t even know why it exists, it just does. if we can make copies and not-things from real things in the world, who’s the say the world couldn’t do that itself? does it even need to know why?

Tsubaki got so disrespected by soul eater fans like yes she is the mom friend but that is borne of her deliberately making herself as accommodating and small and passive as possible because of her insane brother… she is trained in martial arts, uniquely has several weapon forms including one that literally drains the user, has a fun little list of what it takes to be an assassin, was the first character in the story to take down a high level threat, scores high in her class, and is the only person not only able to handle blackstar as a meister but also is insane enough to actively encourage him. I will not accept the “Tsubaki is just a nice polite girl” slander you all just refuse to actually evaluate the character. She is so much more.

does anyone else think about how brave all their friends are and get really emotional about it

I'm glad everyone is alive rn
