#<sprry i forgot that tag

[spearheadrampancy]

every time i come back to fandom spaces - like, the concept of A fandom at all - it seems like everyone is just so... hostile.

and yes some of the things that people are getting riled about are legitimate concerns and stuff, but it seems like everybody is just at each others throats more and more. feels like fandom is less a community and more a kind of label that some people present as some army rank or something.

i dont know. there's just something really sad about it. to log on and see shit like "if you think the princess would ever dare to wear a PURPLE 🤢🤢 skirt instead of the PINK one she is always seen wearing then you should kill yourself and i mean that genuinely." all the time. from all fandoms. from fandoms you didnt even know existed. from fandoms youve been entrenched in for years.

over the last couple of weeks i had started to wonder why i slowly felt less and less comfortable with being in fandom territory over the last 10 years, and i saw a post today talking about how tumblr itself is generally just hostile in the worst way and it clicked. it isnt really a fandom specific issue, it just happens to be prominent in fandom. it's not just a tumblr issue, or even an internet issue though. people on a day to day basis talking to their friends make jokes that are genuinely so aggressive and violent; there's some level of normalisation at play. i'm not sure where it comes from. there's something to be said about how it probably isnt healthy that we're constantly surrounded by news of Yet Another Moral Failing somewhere in the world, how there's a latent anger at everybody and anybody in every direction.

i'm not saying we're in the wrong to be angry at the world. i just think its sad that we've turned art and appreciation into a battleground for some reason.

fandom used to have rules like "dont yuck someone else's yum" and a whole litany of other phrases. but now everyone is just hostile all the time. it sucks. makes me want to stay far away.

HI SULLY i just need you to know that the "adventures is about gina and resolve is about iris" thoughts are actually life ruining like you are so so right about that oh my God. also your susato thoughts are PEAK always and forever... while resolve is such a perfect game in many ways i have some gripes with gina/kazuma at least and if u ever need to Discuss i would love to hear your thoughts abt susato in that game. hope u are doing well just saw your tags and RAAAA yk!!

i'm so sprry i took so long to respond to this i forgot the context but YEAHHH!!!!!!! obviously each game is about of a Lot of things so i'm being just a little purposefully reductive in the name of feminism, but yes yeesss i think gina and iris really do represent the overall ideas each game tries to present! ESPECIALLY gina... i think as a fandom we really sleep on the way her arc mirrors ryuunosuke's as they both seek to discover/rediscover their drive to move forward after having their trust taken advantage of. even though susato is the one who gets through to gina about letting ryuunosuke defend her (in what is possibly one of my favorite bits of dialogue in anything ever hiii i love you susato), i really think gina and ryuunosuke needed to see each other struggling with this in order to move on from it. everything is converging on this exchange of betrayal that megundal orchestrated between ryuu, gina, and susato (ryuu loses faith in what kazuma taught him, gina loses faith in herself, and susato loses faith in the london courts. or any combination of these). and it's just sooo fucking good how the unspeakable story addresses all these things at once, like ik it's not as well-regarded due to its weaker mystery-writing but the themes and characterization shine so strongly through those issues (the dgs adventures thesis statement actually).

as for iris, i think resolve is about her in the same way bridge to the turnabout is "about" pearl. like, she encapsulates the bright future of a bloodied family, she's the reason any of this matters and the reason kazuma and barok need to heal. she IS hope.... which is incidentally why iris & kazuma is one of my favorite potential duos like please just imagine them being friends it is so important to me.... also as they get to know each other, they would think the other is sooo funny. like. she is adopting him as her pet freak and he is using his sword to cut her sandwiches into cute bunny shapes yknow.

also yeah.. agreed on resolve being basically perfect lol, but susato's writing.... it's hard to complain about, because it's not like she's out of character. like i totally buy everything she does in that game, and i appreciate that the plotline is extremely ambitious and didn't really have time to center a character who already had a complete arc in the first game, but!! there were so many different directions she could have gone.... alas. blossoming attorney is my reconciliatory catnip. like i think that case also dropped the ball wrt her potential (is this a hot take?) but i am NOT immune to my fav receiving genderfluidity and a girlfriend. quite possibly the fourth best yuribait in the series (aurametis adrien/celeste lanamia susahao in that order ofc). i love this fic to blossom by @ magicwhiskers29, it does a great job of folding the themes of resolve into susato's character! i would be SO curious to hear your thoughts about gina and kazuma in resolve too..! <_< i have some thoughts as well but this response is already really rambly so i'll speak of them at a later time afdshgh

I CANT BELIEVE I DID IT AHHHHH

[anything-advice-blog]

Im pre everything trans masc and i pass pretty well. I have a pretty deep voice, my shoulders are broad, and ive been doing jaw excercises to look more masculine. I want to get on t but im wondering if i can get on a smaller dosage bc im worried abt the negative affects of t being amplified since im already pretty high in testosterone. Would a smaller dosage of t still be helpful or would i juat be wasting my time? - - crow

hello! Im the anon talking abt taking small doseges of testosterone and i tagged my ask as "crow" there was one thing i forgot to mention. Would the chances of me balding be decreases if i took a smaller dosage? Sprry i know 2 part asks can be annoying! I hope im not being rude

Hi!

No worries, 2-parters are always welcome. The answer to your first question is that the change may happen slower when taking lower doses of testosterone, however it should still be effective in the long-term. And yes to your second question, side effects of any medication increase the higher the dose and vice versa, so chances of balding (and other side effects) decrease the less you take. 

I would check with your primary doctor if anything since we are not professionals and this information may change depending on the person or brand of medication. I hope I was able to more or less answer your question!

Stay strong,

Iris
