I think a lot of people went in thinking pre transition trans folks are all gender nonconforming and she definitely isn’t.

But among trans people and others in the know she was really obvious because she showed a bunch of clear signs of repression and a low level obsession with her masculinity. As a combo it was possible for that to be a cis guy, but it also heavily pointed to her being trans.

Valeris: “A lie?”

Terry Pratchett: "!" said the stranger.

Flight: If your body believes you cannot overcome the danger but can avoid it by running away, you’ll respond in flight mode. A surge of hormones, like adrenaline, give your body the stamina to run from danger longer than you typically could.

Freeze: This stress response causes you to feel stuck in place. This response happens when your body doesn’t think you can fight or flight.

Fawn: This response is used after an unsuccessful fight, flight, or freeze attempt. The fawn response occurs primarily in people who grew up in abusive families or situations.

Pitched a passion project to a network owned by multimillion dollar company

Had to remove MOST of the edge of said passion project.

Bent over backwards to promote the multimillion dollar company’s flawed streaming service so she could continue to make her dreams come true.

Was told MID-PRODUCTION of a second season that her show was gonna be cancelled with all that’s left to make being the rest of that season and three specials.

Was given little to no explanation as to WHY other than her show with an openly bisexual main character no longer fit the brand.

Proceeds to put two and two together when it gets revealed that the multimillion dollar company supported a Florida bill that prohibited discussion of LGBTQIA+ people in the classroom.

Scrambled to make sure that the rest of her series had an ACCEPTABLE ending.

Watched as some of her friends and colleagues go through the same thing with THEIR projects.

Get angry at the fact that the multimillion dollar company made bank off those projects while she and her friends got PENNIES in return.

Quit working for the company because all of the reasons above.

Proceeded to go independent and work for the studio that produced the most FINANCIALLY SUCCESSFUL ANIMATED SERIES OF THE FUCKIN’ DECADE.

And then make a show where the point is to essentially say, “Fuck you” to the multimillion dollar company and all that it currently stands for.

Knights of Guinevere is more than just a dark, horrific animated series that features scenes and ideas from a Dana Terrace unfiltered. Knights of Guinevere is an animated show made by a Dana Terrace who is spiteful and angry towards Disney and everything it’s done, not just to her and The Owl House, but to the animation industry as a whole…And I’m all the more excited because of it.

"Live action remake greenlit. No one asked for it, so we're making it!"

For these girls, transition provides an opportunity to suddenly experience a lot of really strong emotional connections with others in a way they haven't before. This can be hugely rewarding, and quickly result in becoming a kinder, more empathic person that people can trust and rely on.

Now here's the thing, if you're a girl like this: You also have to learn to be a bitch. You have to learn to tell that girl who's consistently choosing to go to you with her problems, who never talks to you about anything other than her problems, to fuck off.

You have to observe that she completely stops talking to you when she's doing well, and returns every time she's crashing out, and say "I am not trained to deal with your issues, and I am not being paid to deal with you." You have to learn to set that boundary, because you will burn out if you don't.
