My World Was Broken Because of You

[windsweptinred]

I've moved this here @bobbole because we HAVE to expand on this! I HAVE THOUGHTS!!

Snapping on my shipping goggles. 'If' The Dreaming comics have to be canon then this for me is THE Corinthiel moment. This is when they realise it's love and they're the one. The fact the Corinthian is abscent from the Dreaming when everything goes down is so relevant. They're still both relatively young here, at a point where establishing their individual identities, separate from their predecessors must have been the most challenging. And the very moment the Corinthian is gone, (The only being who can really empathise with and aid Daniel in this plight). Daniel's memories of Dream overwhelm him and he immediately reverts to following in his predecessors behavior patterns. He's desperate for love and goes looking for it in all the wrong places. When it's RiGHT THERE waiting for him. It's such a Morpheus thing to do it pains me. I know the comic implies there's a measure of sorcerery in Daniel pursuit of Ivy Walker. But even so, I'm going to fanatically stand my ground that if Cori hadn't been off on a side quest at this formative point of Daniel's reign, none of this would have happened. The moment The Corinthian is gone Daniel looses his grip on HIMSELF.

......

So the moment the Corinthian returns and finds out what's gone down is a pivotal point in Cori 2.0s development for me. He's presented with a very similar senario to the one his predecessor once faced... Dream 'imprisoned' by occultists and the taste of freedom. And instead of bemoaning missed opportunities, he goes apoplectic. His fury is a declaration of absolute loyalty in itself. And his incensed rage at the thought of loosing Daniel, of someone touching what is HIS, a revelation of love. And here's the thing, even at this youthful stage as Dream, there's no way the Corinthian could hurt Daniel without Daniel allowing it. But he does. He allows Cori to shash that cursed mark from his skin. To vent all that fear, and rage and brand him anew. Mark him as his. This is Daniel's, he's the one, he's always been the one moment of realisation. It's the most fucked up version of 'I love you' 'I know' in the history of existence. And it's so unapologetically them.

First one!

(See keep reading for each option, spoilers for the Eminence in Shadow (kinda), The Legendary Mechanic, The Odyssey and My Instant Death Ability Is so Overpowered No One in This Other World stands a chance against me)

A: Be Isekai'd into the World of The Eminence in Shadow as the firstborn of a low ranking noble in the countryside (note that the world of the Eminence in shadow is significantly less sexist than our early industrial times due to the presence of magic eliminating any justification for sexism, and cid's older sister is set to inherit, not him)

B: Be Isekai'd into Troy 15 years before the events of the Odysessy as the firstborn (not necessarily son) of a low ranking noble

C: Be Isekai'd into The Legendary Mechanic as an ordinary individual with potential to become a beyond grade A in future on Planet Aquamarine at the exact same time the main character Han Xiao is isekaid (you may choose your faction)

D: Be Isekai'd into the world that Yogiri Takatou is isekaid, (which seemingly hundreds of thousands of people get isekaid to constantly) as someone on the bus with Yogiri, you can choose wether the battlesong installation by Sion proves a success, note that at the end of the series, his surviving classmates are offered a return home, and that due to the time loop via the great sage, you will be revived if you die prior to volume 14ish should you not be killed by Yogiri, and only have to survive the ensuing events of the remaining volumes

Typical March midway with some bits still MIA

[oldguardleatherdog]

let me start by saying, I'm okay to agree to disagree on this, and I respect you greatly as my queer elder. I hesitate to even send this because I don't think this cause is worth dogpiling (and not even the fun way) on anyone against and , like , I will continue to follow and admire you as a mutual who has been through a lot of the hell that I'm going through right now and got to a place I want to someday be. (for context, I am currently housing & food insecure and am trying to live in a queer-accepting city)

Posting will never be praxis, you are my brother in arms no matter what you call trump or cops or whatever. There are some fat liberation blogs that take issue with calling cops "pigs" for a lot of the reasons I bristle at calling Trump a fatass, and like, if someone is actively fighting cops who can and will actively hurt me and my found family, I don't care what names they shout while doing it. So I see where you are coming from and I'm glad you fight for me. I fight for us too, in what little ways I can while I keep me and my found family afloat. I do better work in the community just by existing around people as a living breathing transgender than I could do in a million posts on this website.

I do think that this is a valuable conversation to have, though, even though you are completely right that this is a trivial thing and not at all the bigger, more real issue at hand. I think it's still important, on online platforms such as this, to talk about how we refer to the other people on this planet.

Think about why you didn't call Trump a "retard". You certainly could have, it doesn't *not* apply to some of his behavior. I know people of our generations once used that word a lot, and we don't anymore. Why and when did we change that? I honestly don't remember. For me, my aunt was medically classified as "retarded" and she was the best person I'd ever met, so I decided that word shouldn't mean bad things. The first time I ever hit someone was over them using that word in a derogative way. it wasn't about "mental illness positivity" it was about humanizing the people that word has been used against - people who have been stigmatized and oppressed with that word.

Right now, hopefully, the same thing is happening to the word "obese". Fat people are less likely to be hired, granted loans or secure housing. they can be kicked out of airplanes and fired from their jobs because of their body size. There have been laws proposed to take fat children away from their parents and "treatments" proposed to wire children's jaws shut and starve them to make them thinner. They are often medically mistreated and misdiagnosed. I once went to a doctor with an ear infection and instead of antibiotics, he prescribed me *bariatric surgery.* I have been refused transgender top-surgery because of my BMI, which keeps me at a passively higher risk for self-injury and worse.

I do not care about body positivity. Honestly, between being fat, trans, and poor, I'm at a point where I've given up on ever feeling good about my body again. All I care about is getting jobs and meds and keeping a roof over my family's head and food on our table. Normalizing the idea that fat is a bad thing that anyone can change continues that stigma. When you use Fat as an insult, you are saying fat=bad. Fat is a neutral thing that some bodies can be, like short or tall or lean. The revolution needs to be intersectional, and body size is another axis of oppression that needs to be acknowledged, just like sexuality, gender, race, class, disability, etc.

If you've gotten this far, thank you for hearing me out. I'm sorry that others are just performatively parroting the same things over and over. Civility is bullshit, and if you still want to use body shaming as one of the ways you fight against bigotry, it doesn't really matter to me. Just as long as you acknowledge anti-fat bias as part of that bigotry too.

Thank you for writing and sharing your life experiences with me, and for your solidarity as well. You're striving to make your way as part of a despised minority in a world that's turned unspeakably harsh toward you in an aggressively mean way seemingly overnight, and I admire you for the life you have lived, for your courage and perseverance during this difficult time where resources are scant and your housing and food security is uncertain at best.

(FWIW, after I was bombed out of my Lower Manhattan home on September 11th, my income went from six figures down to nothing overnight, and I was homeless and destitute for years. Twenty years ago, I was where you are now, and I can tell you that what you're enduring today will not last forever, that there is light and hope and blessing in your future, that you're not as alone as you might think, that you must never give up.)

What more can I do to make the point that "fat" has nothing to do with this? As I've said, I grew up obese, and it wasn't until I enlisted in the Army at age 17 that I was able to free myself from my violent and abusive family and unlock the potential of the body that had been hidden under layers of fat and shame all my life. I know that my path is not for everybody, that many others are not so fortunate, and I ceased long ago to think that fat equals bad or lack of character or any other pejorative attitude that society has attached to it for generations. I hope I've made that clear and that you take my word as truth.

I am not saying "let's fat-shame Donald Trump to make him feel bad." I am saying that I'm deeply troubled by the LGBTQ+ community prioritizing hurt feelings over the very real damage that's being done to us right now all over the country by Trump, his minions, his proxies, and his cult of bloodthirsty followers and worshippers. Trump's accomplices in Congress and state legislatures and Moms For Liberty are taking over school boards all over the country, banning books and emptying library shelves and harassing teachers and librarians to the point where they're being run out of town, where the State of Missouri has defunded its entire public library system rather than follow a court order to restore books banned just for featuring LGBTQ+ characters.

DeSantis and Abbott have put in place policies that are unspeakably brutal, that are forcing trans people in Florida to slowly and brutally revert to their pre-transition state, that have given health care providers in Florida the right to deny treatment to you and me and all LGBTQ+ people because we are gay, lesbian, non-binary, trans... but God forbid we should call Trump mean names!

We've seen what happens when we buy into the "when they go low, we go high" fantasy pipe dream. This is not the way the world works, it has never been, and we need to put this loser idea in the trash bin where it belongs once and for all.

We're being attacked and harmed in unspeakable ways that are happening now. This is not theoretical or hypothetical. It's happening to us, to those we love, this minute and every minute of every day. And worse is in the pipeline - they're writing laws that will place us under virtual house arrest, that will regulate where we're allowed to go in our own cities and towns, when we're allowed to be seen in public, when and where we can shop, how we're allowed to dress, even what we're allowed to say and SING, for Christ's sake!

And I'm supposed to be concerned about some minuscule hypothetical percentage of my own people being OFFENDED because I'm somehow being insensitive and violating some trivial picayune social justice warrior philosophy, because there's a possibility of some fragile flower taking it personally, and that I should shut my mouth and let the MAGA nutjobs run roughshod over us? Oh, come let Daddy kiss it! while our brothers and sisters are suffering in real time. Sickening.

Anyone who has a problem with my stance doesn't have to follow me or emulate my proven effective tactics as an activist with 37 years of successfully defending our rights under my belt if they're so dainty and delicate and easily bruised. Everyone else that sees this for the strawman bullshit it is, get ready to hit the streets with bullhorns and whistles once again. We've got work to do.

Your arguments are strong and well-reasoned, and I accept and acknowledge everything you're saying. We can disagree on this, certainly, and still work together to turn back the progress that the MAGAs are making, restore our rights, and protect ourselves and each other. But that will require the snowflake contingent among us to get their collective head out of their collective ass, stop whining, and get with the damn program. Calling me names and telling me I'm being a bad gay activist is a waste of time and energy that should be spent fighting the fascists and the haters who are out to kill us.

And to you, my friend and fellow traveler with a radiantly beautiful soul and spirit, I urge you to hang in there, to keep the faith, to keep caring about life, to work with me to secure our own future and the future of our kind. I send to you my very best wishes, energy, and prayers that you will find your way to a place of health, security, stability, and love for yourself and for this precious community to whom we've both dedicated our lives, who mean the world to us.

Yours In Service, Animal J. Smith

OKAY so I've been binge watching anime, went through a few

Eminence in Shadow is wack, not something I would finish, but pretty fun. This dude is a dramatic ass bitch, I love it. Not my type of show, so I didn't finish it, but someone with a more developed sense of humor will probably like it.

The World's Finest Assassin Gets Reincarnated as an Aristocrat is definitely a recommendation, if you can ignore the incest and their ages. There's... an unsettling amount. There's also an episode dedicated to the backstory of the adopted sister for one of his identities and.... well, there's quite a lot of SA, so be warned.

Reincarnated as a Sword is a much more wholesome recommendation, it's very found family heavy and I love it. It goes into some dark places, but the relationship between the two MCs is sweet. Can't wait for season two! Also Klimt is great and I love him. He doesn't have much art so I'm gonna have to draw something later.

I didn't finish How a Realist Hero Rebuilt the Kingdom because it was kinda starting to bore me. It's fine, like a 6/10 from the four episodes I've seen, but i don't think I like it. MC is kinda cringe too ngl, can't give specifics, he just gives off a vibe. You'll probably like it if you like the whole kingdom building thing, I think, didn't get very far, so beware ig

Kemono Michi is a thing. Didn't like it's first episode and didn't want to waste my time. Glad I didn't because next is the reason for this post:

Parallel World Pharmacy is a must watch for anyone who likes wholesome isekai, medicine, or just likes wholesome anime. He is very powerful, has the mark of the god of medicine, and was a pharmacist that overworked himself to death because he eventually wanted to open his own pharmacy so he could help people. This baby can fit so much wholesome in it..... and some non-wholesome things. The best part, pretty much no fan-service or sexualization of the female mcs aside from a few shots. They're pretty few and far between, easy to ignore. I'm glad I don't have to deal with the sexualization of minors that often happens in isekai.

Anyway, I'd rank them in this order: 1. Parallel World Pharmacy 2. Reincarnated as a Sword 3. Eminence in Shadow 4. The World's Finest Assassin Gets Reincarnated as an Aristocrat 5. How a Realist Hero Rebuilt the Kingdom 6. Kemono Michi

I ranked EiS above TWFAGRaaA because it's genuinely pretty funny, has the cool "I am atomic" moment, and because the incest is really a no for me, alongside the sexualization of fourteen year olds. Just because they're adults in that world doesn't mean I like it.

anyway, give Parallel World Pharmacy a shot, I love it!

you know, i love chris x una and christine x chris because i think both una and chapel would benefit from being with someone caring and emotionally mature/intelligent.
