oh this is a REALLY good article.
[image transcript:
“The ghosts that haunt your building are prepared to take on substance
And the dull pain that you live with isn’t getting any duller
There’s a closet full of almost-pristine videotape
Documenting sordid little scenes in living color”
I identified so strongly with the lyrics it scared me. I had stomped down my gender confusion so much it left my whole soul bruised and tender, a dull pain which only got sharper with time. I tried to tell myself I was past the self-hatred and disgust that began at puberty, that I was content with my lot in life. But I, like the speaker of the song, had a closet full of evidence to the contrary, the memory of a thousand sordid scenes of gender-play and crossdressing more vibrant and real than anything I ever did as my assigned gender.
When I came out, it didn’t feel like a choice. It felt beautiful and inevitable, like the thousand ghosts of my body had decided for me.

I AMMMM OBSESSSSSEDDDD WITH THAT MOVIEE the machine fetishist is soooo me hes so hot. i too want to bring a guy flowers while hes transforming into a mash of metalll. ive been meaning to do an edit of it for a while but its hard to come up with writing that fits one of your favorite movies of all time. i cant put something corny and lame over the drill dick!!
i could write paragraphs on what it means to me as a trans guy but basically. tetsuo should be in the pride collection <3

What if Luxord was Keykiid's apprentice? I believe this because they both use cards (in Chi, before the medals, cards were used) they both use darkness and light, in addition to ludor, one of the possible names of Luxord's somebody, which means playing, what do you think?
it's an interesting theory! i've been thinking of the possibility that player themself could be luxord (though it's a bit of a stretch since we don't know what the exact rules for reincarnation are yet), but apprentice seems plausible too — especially since in the jp dialogue for the final dark road cutscene, xehanort calls player "master" (not necessarily indicative of them having apprentices, but interesting to note either way)
related to their similarities, i also keep thinking about that kh3 remind scene between luxord and xigbar, specifically where luxord says, "yes, that's what i've always done. i followed the orders from above without question." obviously this could just as easily be me picking out coincidences and making connections where there aren't any, but i have to admit that it just makes me think of player's line in the clock tower when they confronted their foreteller: "i've done everything that was expected of me without a second thought."
which also reminds me of luxord saying "the game isn't over until it's over" in the caribbean, which seems to be becoming something of a reoccuring line — it's said once in the loading screen of xehanort and eraqus's chess game with the exact same wording, ephemer says a variant of it in the khux finale ("it's not over till it's over, skuld."), and even player sorta says it right before they fade away though it's a lot more truncated and could be handwaved away ("it's not over yet."). it's interesting to me to see who gets those lines, and out of all of those luxord's sticks out like a sore thumb to me; sure, games are kinda his thing, but it seems like a line that's gaining some importance, so to give it to luxord of all people feels suspicious — all part of him becoming more important in the story moving forward supposedly
(and this probably isn't related at all so i'm just slipping this in last, but in that dark road q&a there's a question about odin where nomura just says "Naturally, Master Odin also had a master to mentor him. Said master entrusted Odin with a mission, which actually ties in with the identity of the blue-robed individual." and it just . it hasn't left my head because there are so many things you could extrapolate from it. does this imply player and odin had the same master? or is player odin's master? are they completely unrelated and the mission is the only thing that connects them? it keeps me up at night)
anyway i'm rambling but tldr; i think there's a lot of tiny details that link player and luxord together and it's fun to think about what their connection could possibly be, and i'm more than excited to see what gets revealed about them in the coming installments !!

Hoodie :) (plus today's outfit!)
Probably my fave piece of band merch from an aesthetic standpoint, so it was kind of scary to start fucking with it LMFAO
But also, as it was originally (regular pullover hoodie), I actually couldn't wear it comfortably cause of how it clung to me and bunched up in stupid ways (even though it's Supposed to be large 🙄)
For a while the only mods were the slits/patches on the sleeves and waist, but as it's been getting warmer and as I put A Lot of attention to like, the rest of my outfit a lot of the time, it's kind of a bummer to wear a pullover actually I feel like I would wear it more if it zipped. So. Implemented a zipper! 👍
Oooh found these pics too!!! From the og mod!!
I was very careful to preserve the other hoodie I took the fabric from, cause I loved it dearly LMFAO and wanted to use it somehow in the future (wasn't exactly sure how at the time, though). The Original original hoodie is from middle school, and while like. It fit. It was absolutely too tight for my liking, esppp as I've developed a STRONG preference for baggy/loose clothes.
Ultimately the fit of it is a little weird, it's VERY top heavy LMFAO (I actually haven't figured out how to stitch the second hood on without bunching up the other hoodie since they're two different sizes, large and small -- it's just pinned via safety pins for now) but it is SO COZY. AND funky. AND THE DOUBLE POCKETS ARE SO COOL. Sewing that bit was really fun too! All of it is hand sewn, and just me figuring it out as I went.
ALSO.
I absolutely took inspiration from these two Splatoon jackets in particular LMFAOOOOOO (patchwork bomber influence is p clear, combining several different jackets into one -- the dark bomber influence is more in how the hoodie is shaped, and in how the zipper doesn't completely meet the end of the jacket!)
All in all I just love it so much and so dearly and I'm really happy with the results!!!!

Hey, Good Omens fandom, wanna play a game? What do you think Crowley's favorite Ghost song is?
I think, it's either From the Pinnacle to the Pit (makes him feel better about the Fall), or Dance Macabre (but, he'd never admit he likes it).
