theory fan

Far too many people expect transmascs to just fall in line with the idea that transition erases the impact of their past experiences. That man who grew up the eldest daughter expected to raise his siblings while his brothers got to play doesn’t have his life rewritten once he starts testosterone. That enby who got catcalled in the street at age 15 for wearing a low cut dress doesn’t have that fear erased by using they/he pronouns. The boys who grew up being told by their classmates, their families, society itself that they were never going to achieve as much as their male peers don’t have that message unwritten in their hearts as soon as they come out. And to say that their masculinity inherently makes them complicit in the same pain inflicted upon them their whole lives not only is cruel but also absolves the behavior of cis men as an aspect of their condition, rather than a learned bigotry that’s much easier to perpetuate when you’ve never been the target of it yourself.

Rolling on the floor sobbing and crying and losing my mind at “GET INSIDE THE VAAAAAAAAAAN”

huge fan of when characters love each other and are closely bonded in an explicitly nonromantic way. however ☝️ i am very much not a huge fan of what happens when characters like this are introduced to fandom

The most obsession inducing trait a character can have for me is knowing somewhere in their heart That They Are A Bad Kid

This isn't necessarily literal. It can apply to characters who aren't children too. But there's something about characters who are either certain of the fact, or terrified of the possibility, that they are just fundamentally wrong and bad at their core

It is also important to me that it is not true. No one is fundamentally broken and evil.

I worked in a supermarket for 7 years and I don't think I can understate just how much cleaning you had to do for it to look clean (it very often where not in the places you aren't supposed to see)

True for food service, retail establishments, gyms, outdoor areas, schools, religious buildings, office buildings, etc. People usually only notice when a space is NOT clean, meanwhile every time a space is clean it’s only because of the diligent work of janitors, maintenance staff, custodians, parks workers, or volunteers.

That cat loves his human so fucking much. This is only possible because the cat's cool with it.

all cops are bastards because all cops are just doing their jobs

He uh, skipped awful quickly to “stealing gold fillings” didn’t he?

I would let her kill me for sport
