One of my favorite thing I’ve learned about animals studies is that you should avoid using colorful leg bands when you’re banding birds because you can accidentally completely skew the data because female birds prefer males with colorful bands
Apparently if you put a red band on a male red wing blackbird his harem size can double
So like you can completely frick up the natural reproduction of a group of birds by giving a guy a bracelet so stylish that females CANNOT resist him

Guys in their 20s and 30s who insist they are unapproachable now because the love of their life broke their heart at 14. ...What. That is barely a step up from "you want to know why I'm so negative at 30? ...Animaniacs really fucked me up as a kid" like are you fucking serious?

So an ongoing fanon I have for Once Upon a Time is that Jareth from the Labyrinth exists and if Rumpelstiltskin sees him it's on fucking sight.
In my head I imagine that somebody ran off with the wrong son and this ended in a harried Dark One agreeing to solve his stupid maze and TF you mean you're gonna up the stakes and change the rules of the contract we already agreed upon?
Do you know who I am? I'm the guy that's gonna burn your house down!
...But no this ended with Baelfire home and the Goblin King no longer able to appear in the Enchanted Forest as anything but an owl. And he might have tried to force the Dark One's hand to break the curse on him, and a certain portal-jumping hatter might have gotten roped into that adventure.
I imagine dealmakers avoid each other's territories as a courtesy -- they all abide by different rules so it lessens instances of stepping on each other's toes. All of them agree that dealmakers who have unreliable contracts are not invited to the cookout, though. Rumple would break bread with Bill Cipher before he ever deals with Jareth again.

Being vague about someone you are expressing disdain for, like giving a simple name that could apply to hundreds, if not thousands, (or a highly specific name that is not related to the issue at hand at all) and when asked why just saying "[They] know what [they] did" and nothing else is peak comedy.

If you give this woman money, it will go to transphobic causes. If you give this woman a platform, she will use it to boost transphobic causes. This isn't a "well nobody's perfect" or "well x other creator also did something bad once" situation, this is an inordinate amount of influence for a creator to have, and supporting her by word or wallet actively hurts trans people.
