personally i dont think karen using ziggs correct pronouns is like proof the chasitys r like so awesome and chill abt trans ppl like . legit feel like they arent like everyones entitled to their opinions on it yk ofc but imo it kinda takes away from the commentary of the harm of fundamentalist xtian views esp when they r canonically homophobic ones and ones clearly based in like. gender roles to act like transphobia isnt part of those harmful views yk but like i do have my own takes on those lines in hatchet town being. number 1 the kindaa boring one lol is that the songs in the show are non diagetic yk so its kinda like when ur telling a story abt ur friend whos nonbinary and like their mom or whoever is transphobic or theyre not out to her nd u have to mention smth their mom said abt them in the story but its not at all relevant to the story tht theyre closeted to her or she doenst respect their identity and like regardless u dont wanna deadname nd misgender ur friend so ur gonna say it like she was using the right name and pronouns assuming ur talking to someone theyre out to right. what im saying is the meta narrative (and also team starkid bc i suspect the real not in universe reason is they didnt wanna misgender both the character and their actor whos actually non binary which is like rly valid nd fair yk like esp in the instance of the simple hatchet town cameo irrelevent to any other hypothetical commentary i think itd feel less like an actual commentary on transphobia and more like. just pointless and somewhat transphobic in an of itself yk) is ziggs friend in this analogy and its not going misgender them even if it is repeating something karen said thank you very much ! and number 2 the less boring one is that ziggs nonbinary swag is so powerful tht the transphobes of hatchetfield dont know how to misgender them so theyre forced to respect their identity bc they dont know how to disrespect it lol

speaking of flags i find it funny that i still include the lesbian and nonbinary flags in there. i dont entirely enjoy identifying with them still but not in a bad way its more of like. idk theyre not completely descriptive of who i am but itd feel wrong not to include them. and so like i rack up flags like this. whatever!! i find it amusing.

Yeehaw here’s a pinned post i’ve been meaning to make for literal months!
I’m Matt [gender under construction]
21, aroace, from England (soz <3)
I’m disabled and at uni atm so sometimes i take a bit to see stuff and reply, I’m not ignoring you! Update: my dad’s also got cancer so uh. that’ll do it for sure.
This is a sideblog - my main is over at @gayandvibin so that’s where replies and likes are coming from
Ao3 is h0pscotch (no posts yet, but by god am i working on it)
This blog is for the last dragon chronicles - a book series that ended over 10 years ago and i continue to be so normal about that i almost singlehandedly revived the tag in 2022. Sometimes i post wips or the odd uni piece, but it’s mostly me drawing and chatting about dragon books. I love side characters that barely get screen time and you do not remember or care about. That is a threat and a promise.
(Also I read the UK versions if that matters to literally anyone. I love to pretend that everyone is okay and also that i understood the plot)
Please feel free to send asks (anon is on), I am always down to ramble about these characters. I’m also pretty much always up for tldc drawing requests (and even if i’m busy, there’s no harm in asking - i’ll get to them at a later date).
Tags: I don’t really categorise my reblogs, but [character name] will take you to anything original i’ve ever posted about them, ragnar art is for everything i draw, and ragnar rambles is for all my text posts.
Triggers are tagged tw [trigger] or cw [trigger], and if you need anything tagged/think i’ve missed something please shoot me an ask or a dm!
I block blank blogs on sight, so do something to prove you’re a human if you want to keep seeing my silly dragon posts! And in general don’t be an asshat, racists die, transphobes kill yourselves, pedos get run over by a lorry etc.
