"xie lian is so oblivious" yeah yeah we've all been in the mires of queer plausible deniability. but xie lian had the deck stacked wayyy against him. he didn't know he was gay, thought hua cheng was taken, has been maintaining a chastity vow his whole life, depending on your headcanon is demisexual, and further depending on your headcanon is autistic . his ass was not reading into ANYTHING

eming is really so unbelievably embarrassing for hua cheng like can you imagine having your dysregulated touch-starved traumatised inner child just constantly exposed out in the open to your childhood saviour who is also your current crush. every time you stand next to him the personification of your ten-year-old self starts screaming shaking crying for his affection. you can’t do anything to stop him. i would die

i am "hua cheng is pathetic" advocator no. 1 and that's because it's true. he is so pathetic and that's a key part of his character. but it's really funny to remember that that's Only when he's around xie lian. hua cheng is the sweetest little puppy dog eyes guy around xie lian but his reputation is for realzies! he destroys people's lives and is sinister and uncaring and watches people ruin themselves in his gambling hall for funzies and is entertained by suffering just as a ghost king should be! the man makes it rain blood in his dramatic moments! but the moment xie lian rolls up he's all silly giggling blushing kicking his feet going "noooo babe don't worry you're doing soooo good at dice rolling..." gayass. he has destroyed gods

you start reading TGCF and assume Xie Lian is the damsel in distress who is helped out by the Ghost King with sinister secret plans, only to find out that Xie Lian CAN and will kick your ass, and figures out any sinister plans within seconds but keeps his mouth shut because life is simpler that way

people saying hua cheng would ask xie lian “would you love me if i was a worm” because he’s insecure. fools, all of you. hua cheng would ask it as a meme at the dinner table in front of xie lian’s friends and then snicker at everyone’s secondhand embarrassment when xie lian responds “of course san lang i would keep you safe in my pocket and nurture you” but then be secretly really touched and make out with him over it later while they’re doing the dishes.

I need to write about how Jun Wu's belief that everyone has the capacity for evil, if you just push them hard enough, torment them long enough, is directly contradicted by the entire story of tgcf, which posits that, actually everyone has the capacity for good. The misogynistic womanizer, the depraved cannibal, the man dead set on revenge, the one filled with envious resentment, are all able to do the right thing when it comes down to it. In a way, doing good is a surrender, it's giving up, it's as easy as falling asleep. And it's so much easier than letting the evils of your past dog your heels for hundreds of years. Isn't it such a release to change? To not be stuck in your old ways?

Doing boring backgrounds, but damn I made that new year’s promise. 

Funniest switch up on tiktok recently is the “Reddit aita stories read by a robot voice to Minecraft parkour” posts being slowly replaced with superbat tumblr fics instead, and people in the comments being like “I’ve never thought about Batman and Superman kissing until now but now I’m invested”

when dan and phil reference their own content it’s like wait what do you MEAN you know about dan and phil.

anthony is dead: the funeral roast (paid content)

I love how it wasn’t enough for lestat to be French, he had to be Italian too. If you’re gonna be European (derogatory) you might as well go whole hog and occupy both ends of the Obnoxious European Spectrum [trademark pending].

i love when pets huff or sigh dramatically. like i am sorry. you're so right. you live such a laborious life. it must be so difficult to take naps and get pet and fed treats and played with all day. really a packed schedule youve got there boss. how do you manage it all. well no matter i'd say it's time for your well earned 7th afternoon nap

idea: batman and the robins never acknowledge that there have been different robins. like they all act that there's only been one and that they're the same person basically.

Justice League who's used to teen dick not kid jason: who is this child?

Batman: what do you mean, it's robin.

-

Batman and Tim walking through the watchtower:

Justice League who remembers robin literally dying: ...*side eye*...

-

Flash: batman… who is this?

Batman: robin. you’ve met before. several times.

Flash: no, i met a black haired boy. this is a blonde girl!

Batman: her name is robin

-

Superman: it's time for you to explain. where are you getting all these children?

Batman: i have no idea what you're talking about.

Superman *pointing to damian*: who is this kid?!

Damian: i'm robin. i'm offended you would even ask that? don't you remember *proceeds to recite a story dick told him of his robin days*

Young trans men will come online, looking for community, guidance, and support only to be pushed away and mocked for expressing any vulnerability and insecurity, as if they were naive to think they deserved any ounce of care.

The cruelty is especially jarring when it's presented as some sort of common sense. Is it common sense to tell trans boys, because some of these people are boys, 13-15-17 years old, that they should expect and accept adversarial reactions because of their boyhood and masculinity because that's just what being a man is?

These are trans people, trans children, which everyone seems to care about so much when it comes to legislation, but a lot less when they actually express needs and wants beyond 'I wanna be alive'

why can't trans boys be met with comfort when they express their pain to older members of the community?

What kind of trans elder are you going to be if in your twenties and thirties you are telling trans boys that it's normal for other queer and trans people to isolate them because of their gender?

A shit elder, that's what you are going to be, a shit fucking elder who at best will be left alone in your toxic circles and at worst will actively harm younger trans people.

“What kind of trans elder are you going to be if in your twenties and thirties you are telling trans boys that it's normal for other queer and trans people to isolate them because of their gender?”

I see weekly posts on Reddit to the tune of “Someone in our all-girl group chat/D&D game/whatever just came out as a trans guy. The supportive thing to do is kick him out, right? I don’t want to invalidate his gender.” And the comments are always a morass of shitty advice from a bunch of cis people and trans teenagers who have no concept of queer history or community.

No, exclusion is not support. Do not kick your friend out when he needs his friends most of all. Stop drawing arbitrary lines dividing who’s allowed to associate with whom. Queer community is not a country club. Judging people’s identity to determine whether they qualify for admission is stupid and self-defeating.

“someone in our all girl group just came out, so we should kick him out to affirm his gender right?”

you should literally just stop calling the group an all girls group. seriously i cannot comprehend how cis people’s first response to someone coming out is “oh so we should abruptly cut this person off from their support system” like how fucking cruel do you have to be to think that’s an option???? also cis people (and honestly some trans ppl too????) have such a fucking warped view of what “gender affirming” is, like i did not feel AFFIRMED by my friends abandoning me when i came out. i felt betrayed and angry.

isolation is one of the biggest contributing factors to the high rates of depression and suicide in trans men. i promise you it’s more gender affirming to be alive with a support network than dead but kicked out of the all girls group chat in a “gender affirming” way. most of us would rather keep our support networks and just be in a dnd group called “the girls and alex.”
