Werewolves are such a trans thing, such a weirdly apt and correctly shaped bit of myth and story that has slowly been shaped by society to even more closely fit as an allegory for transness. Queer folk have so oft been forced to look to villains and monsters for representation due to awful censorship like the Hays Code and while we are hopefully long past that it's shadow still looms tall, I look at a villains and I wonder if they might be me, if they are the best representation I can have, and then I see werewolves, feared by society for something beyond their control, often forced to hide it shamefully, only feeling truely free and powerful and alive when they engage with that hidden self they simultaneously hate and cannot avoid. These beautiful creatures who so often only find family and community amongst other creatures shunned by society for something fundimental and unchangeable about them. I love werewolves as trans Allegories, I look at werewolves and I see myself, not as some monster, some otherworldly evil, but as a powerful, fierce, beautiful creature unstoppable and proud.

United Healthcare getting sued by its investors, because it didn't warn them that the CEO getting murdered (by the tendrils of their unmitigated greed) was going to lead to them approving more claims (for covered services that they had no right to deny) is a cartoonish example of exactly why their CEO got murdered.

Their argument is essentially "You promised us a specific profit margin that is not possible to achieve under this increased public scrutiny of your unethical practices. We only agreed to invest because of those unethical practices. So we demand compensation because you didn't warn us that you'd be behaving more ethically"

And idk. Satire isn't just dead. We've pissed on its corpse and now it's dissolving in lye.

I am so sick and tired of seeing the trans women around me being slowly hot coaled into the closet and into essentially being forced back into "Men who would really love being women but Can't because they Aren't". It is so painful stop fucking doing this to our trans women. Stop forcing them to be "Fine" with being called dude bro man he and biologically male stop it stop it stop it you are killing her. You are killing her.

Make sure you don't accidentally punish people for communicating their needs and boundaries. When someone cares enough to have the uncomfortable conversation, that's a compliment and a clear sign that they are invested in the relationship. Yes of course it's uncomfortable to hear that something you've been doing has been upsetting someone you care about when that was never your intention, but people generally only bother to have these conversations with the people they want to keep around - the people they trust to care. If they just didn't like you, they'd probably just try to avoid you. So make sure you don't make it into a more punishing experience than it has to be. Try to see the care and the trust behind the criticism, even when it triggers uncomfortable emotions. It's a good sign that they're there telling you.

The best tragedies will have you thinking "I wish it could've gone any other way" and "this is the only way it could've ended" at the same time
