It's the modernization it's the mechanization it's the way the old world has to die for the new world to be born and by killing gortash you've slowed it down but you haven't stopped it because ideas can't be stopped and the industrial world that will destroy your way of life is coming and you can't stop it by killing him any more than the luddites could stop it by smashing up a few factory machines

Excuse me while I lay face down on the floor thinking about subject: Gordon frantically and desperately trying to claw the hev suit off of himself.
By the time he realized the suit was the source to the pain it was already too late. The suit had already began fusing to himself; clawing it off at that stage would have been the same as him tearing off his own flesh and muscle. The locks were designed specifically to prevent him from taking the suit off by himself anyway. There was truly no chance he could have torn it off of himself with nothing but his bleeding, burning hands.
Yet, he tried. Tried and failed, just as he tried and failed to scream.

Consciousness is alluring. The truth and the core self are like a lover undressed; you know only you will see them this way, and that when the world looks on they will see creases in fabric and face, a friend, an option. But you, when you trace your hands upon that true reflection, will know the rawness of skin and the taste of flesh that will linger through every moment you are away, and your internal eyes will forever be imprinted with their sweet perfume that only you know they wear in bed.

i honestly feel like the cis vs. trans debate depends on how we’re defining the terms. “trans” as in “no association with your agab whatsoever”? probably excludes a good sum of trans people. “cis” as in “only expresses their gender through stereotypical presentation and/or never experiments with the concept of gender”? probably excludes a good chunk of cis people. but this doesn’t necessarily conflict with or negate the cultural significance of being cisgender or transgender and labeling those experiences as such. cis and trans people obviously receive very different treatments and privileges, so it’s less about strictly defining what it means to be cis or trans and more about how these terms (as broad groupings) help us understand and identify where we stand. they’re communication devices first and foremost, not diagnoses. i hope that makes sense

Making good progress on remaining comms! Internet isn't so great, though, so sending them out might be closer to the end of the week...
I should be making a post for lineart services later today or tomorrow and open a few experimental slots for them.

Like theyre obv different countries I acknowladge that but sometimes I see a non native person from canada talking shot to the us abt colonization. Girl the call is coming from inside the canadian boarding schools
