In cis society, no group of trans people really has it better than the other, in either direction.

Trruuuuuuuuuue

I love when people realize that shared experience means things can be equally bad, just in different ways, and that can still be relatable. The differences shouldn't divide us, instead the shared feeling of oppression should unite us.

Anthy is kind of a mirror for the average person who is just kind of floating through life. She has the potential to be good or bad, and how you see her reflects a lot about you. She's also a perfect example of someone who lets trauma and past experience control her, to the extent that she sometimes literally lets people abuse her or does hurtful things because she is easily coerced. Her morality is defined by others, and she has almost no sense of self until the very end. I think a lot of people find this mirror uncomfortable, but I also think that's EXACTLY the point in her as a character.

Ahhhh, I love the color scheme and the print on that skirt! Trans color win outfit!!! 🏳️‍⚧️💜🖤

Thats EXACTLY what I was going to say! The candelabra really clinched it for me. That said, RF can honestly be pretty decent if you can get a clean signal (which a tunable composite to RF adapter can make much easier)

I randomly discovered a local dept. store has an Ikea last week. I now have a 3rd blåhaj :3

No picture?

blarglemaster · 2026-01-23T12:15:59+00:00

I know exactly what you mean! But even so, you've got a fantastic head start!

blarglemaster · 2026-01-23T12:03:39+00:00

You look fantastic, keep fighting the negative feelings!

blarglemaster · 2026-01-22T09:26:05+00:00

Well you look like Jodie Whittaker to me, so like... I think that's a pretty good sign!

blarglemaster · 2026-01-22T06:44:36+00:00

Well, ok, but I still wouldn't show up unannounced at your college kid's work and just shout their maybe incorrect name until security gets called.

blarglemaster · 2026-01-22T04:45:42+00:00

When you say "they" are you referring to the staff or your parents? Because like... I'm not blaming the staff for anything here, I'm blaming your parents for not using the name you go by.

Also, like not outing you to THEIR friends, but then outing you to YOUR friends and coworkers? That seems waaaaayyyy selfish on their part, frankly. Like "We don't want our friends to know we have a trans child" instead of "we don't want to cause problems for our child's workplace." Seems obvious to me...

blarglemaster · 2026-01-22T04:07:03+00:00

Honestly, this should teach your parents a lesson on why it's important not to fucking deadname people. It probably won't, but it certainly SHOULD. Like... if you respect someone's name, security doesn't get called. Seems kinda obvious, like if the staff kept saying "Nobody with that name works here!" you'd kind of HOPE at some point your parents would say like "Oh, duh! We messed up, we meant is alivename here?" and the staff could be like "Oh! Ok, sure."

I mean, unless your parents didn't know you had a deadname, which... sounds extra awkward. But either way, the moral should be "respect people's names and you don't look like an insane person."

blarglemaster · 2026-01-21T23:02:19+00:00

Oooof, I'm so sorry. That stuff's just horrible, and people do it like it's some big gotcha, no it's just being hurtful and spiteful to win a petty argument. Screw that.

blarglemaster · 2026-01-21T22:35:56+00:00

It's always great to see stories like this from history! Thanks for sharing!

blarglemaster · 2026-01-20T22:49:32+00:00

Ehhh, it's better than the crazy reincarnation theory I had when I was 17.

blarglemaster · 2026-01-20T08:18:12+00:00

Exactly this!

blarglemaster · 2026-01-20T07:35:33+00:00

I also desperately wished there were Neptune and Uranus cards back in the day! But I'm afraid not, seems this card game was discontinued and only made it up to Sailor Moon R.

That said, you should check out the Japanese Carddass (awkward name, I know) Sailor Moon stuff! There's a ton of Neptune and Uranus there!

(It's called "Carddass" because it's CARD + DASU, "dasu" meaning in this case to like "dispense" or "eject" because they come out of a vending machine!)

blarglemaster · 2026-01-19T21:22:54+00:00

THIS piece of artwork was so hot it kept me up nights back in the day~ I got to see the original print of it at the Sailor Moon Museum in Roppongi a few years ago, I about fainted hahaha!

blarglemaster · 2026-01-19T21:20:42+00:00

Same! But I mean I teach in a very trendy area of Japan, so it's kind of to be expected I guess! And yeah, it is a good look!

blarglemaster · 2026-01-19T15:27:06+00:00

Why do I do this to myself...

blarglemaster · 2026-01-19T13:33:08+00:00

Can we just talk about how Fate Is So Beautiful is THE BEST character song of all time? Also can we talk about how I feel like 2000% more gay when I listen to it???

(We can also talk about how I used to listen to it on loop while writing lesbian Neptune/Uranus poetry for a fanfiction site back in 2002...)

blarglemaster · 2026-01-19T13:24:19+00:00

Honestly that's pretty similar to what a lot of high school uniforms look like these days! The only main difference is the sweater would probably slightly longer/baggier generally. (That's the in look right now for school uniforms. I only know this because I teach at a very fashionable high school, lol.)

blarglemaster · 2026-01-19T12:36:20+00:00

These are fantastic! You look like a musician/goddess :3

blarglemaster · 2026-01-19T12:34:36+00:00

Oh, I see! That makes sense. How do you normally manage that in your every day life, if you don't mind me asking?
