I don’t think ego renegade boy Len is metaphorically trans at all. I think he’s explicitly trans. I think he is just actually, genuinely, canonically trans. I think the metaphor lies not in him being trans, but in him being convicted. How he “killed” Rin in the story and is in court for it. The line “case open and shut” once he gets to the courthouse implies that, although nobody is dead, he has already been decidedly guilty. There is a line around the body, evidence at the scene, and yet there is no body there, and there never was. It’s a metaphor for the way trans men are treated. How their families pretend their daughters are dead, how they’re treated as violent and evil just because they’ve changed. Rin is not “dead,” Len is alive and thriving. And yet he’s accused.

Being an aspiring game dev is fun cause it’s like you have all these ideas for massive sandbox games with unique mechanics and NPC characters with personality and 18 thousand endings and a completely open world that will make people cry at its sheer beauty and excellence . But that shits gotta wait cause right now you don’t even know how to make the little pixel guy jump

I get that “DNIs don’t work” and all but I think if I have explicit boundaries online it’s fucked up of others to make a point about crossing them. Like my DNI isn’t gonna prevent people from telling me to kill myself, I get it. But I also think that when someone tells you something makes them uncomfortable and you proceed to do that thing it’s a lot more fucked up than if you did the thing without knowing it makes them uncomfortable. It’s good to curate your own online experience. It’s good to state your boundaries so they’re less likely to be crossed, at least by people that actually care about others. Yk?

hmmm…… why do I feel bad? Clearly I’ve done something morally wrong *had 2 hours of sleep* *hasn’t eaten in 16 hours* *under stress from numerous tasks as well as executive dysfunction*
