Parents!Rayllum would totally fill the box of "embarrasses their kids on a daily basis"

#this is the kind of hyperfixation where i have their entire future mapped out #and that includes reproduction #but we dont talk about that #we just talk about how their child is annoyed and endeared by their dork parents #rayllum #callum #rayla #callum x rayla #tdp #the dragon prince

Conversations on here will basically be like

"Hey these new reproductive rights issues are affecting trans men too so let's make sure we include them in the conversation, instead of calling it women's health issues."

"Would you stop complaining? Trans women have it worse than trans men. TERFs want to kill us but only detransition you."

"If living as the gender you are not is so easy why would you transition in the first place? Obviously trans people transition because they can't live with existing as a gender they are not. Obviously "just going back" isn't an option because we often fail to behave the way we're expected to anyway. Forcing any trans person to detransition is a death sentence in and of itself."

"Why are you always speaking over transfems when we talk about transmisogynistic violence???"

#transandrophobia #its the conversation being about trans mascs to begin with that does it for me #yeah im sorry i interupted the beginning of your sentence with the middle of mine so rude of me #and the ultimate frustration is the topic has drifted so far off course #from including trans men in reproductive healthcare #and nobody cares #functionally i would just like access to reproductive healthcare #and you are the one pulling attention from that by turning it into a whataboutisms conversation #nothing that trans men want to acheive by being part of the conversation about reproductive health precludes trans women also getting rights #but telling trans men to shut up and listen to trans women because they have it worse #IS INTENTIONALLY LEAVING TRANS MEN BEHIND #not to mention arguing about who has it worse is what creates false dichotomies that leave out nonbinary people on top of it

Julian's line of "I needed another womb for the baby, and the only two other people on board were Major Kira and me." is already very. That Man Is Trans. and listen yes you can interpret it as him saying Kira was the only choice, but then it's literally followed up by Sisko saying "I think you made the right choice, Doctor." which I know is supposed to be a joke but the implication IS there that there WAS a choice and basically Julian is trans

#star trek: ds9 #julian bashir #he's trans what else can I say #his tboy swag is off the charts #and also I love the idea of him being trans and choosing to keep his reproductive organs like his uterus #I feel like gender affirming surgeries including hysterectomies would be much easier to do in Star Trek #so it'd be interesting if he elected out of that one #anyways can you imagine if Julian ended up with the pregnancy #Julian/Miles/Keiko fic where they all fall in love over the pregnancy #also fucking hysterical imagining Miles having to deal with Julian carrying his goddamn baby #I think that'd drive him insane #I think he would suddenly become very concerned about Julian's less-than-healthy work-life balance #I think Julian would be VERY offended when Miles suddenly didnt want them going to the Alamo anymore #im thinking too much about this now actually

[insomniac-ships]

I feel like now is a good time to make this perfectly clear: I am unapologetically pro-choice. If you don't like that, block me.

Y'know what? If you're anti-abortion/pro-forced birth? Please block me. Stay far away from me. Kindly go away.

#t.k. talks #pro-choice #gtfo with your forced birth bullshit #i have no patience #reproductive health is so fucking important and that includes safe and legal access to abortions

This is a very very unfinished thought but I've been thinking a lot as I reread the books about how the women of House of the Dragon don't really get catharsis and how that'll likely be worse in S2. Say what you want about asoiaf but a number of named women there experience catharsis.

They kill their abusers (Lysa, Cersei, Dany). They regain some agency after a violation (Lysa, Cersei, Lady Stoneheart, Dany), and they refuse to forgive the people complicit in their subjugation (Lysa, Cersei, Dany, Lady Stoneheart, Jeyne Westerling).

Obviously, three or four isn't enough in such an expansive cast of characters but the point remains that they claw back their autonomy however they have to. They're allowed to be angry, bitter, unforgiving and cruel to their abusers in a way women in House of the Dragon just aren't allowed. They're allowed grief, grief that is violent and destructive.

The women of House of the Dragon don't get angry. They stand around and stare plaintively at the camera, they cry prettily, and they plead for peace and non-violence. They suffer and suffer and suffer and there's no relief.

#although dany doesn't really set out to kill her abuser #in fact she doesn't really think of him as her abuser #but the fact remains that her story begins with his death #she gains her dragons and agency through his death #lysa murdering jon arryn #lysa not going to riverrun when hoster is on his deathbed despite cat's letters #she denies him relief for his crimes against her and it's one of my favourite moments in asoiaf #cersei killing robert #cersei eating robert's children taking back reproductive autonomy from the man that hurt her #lady stoneheart turning her grief and pain onto the riverlands #she hangs freys boltons and lannisters uncaringly #it's a failing of the storytelling because this is supposed to be the feminist retelling of the dance #but instead the misogyny that leads up to the dance has been defanged. #the point of the show has been obscured behind endless arguments of the supposed illegitimacy of rhaenyra's first three children #the women fighting for power have been replaced by evil men perched on their shoulders telling them to do bad things #they're helpless victims carried along by the stream of inevitability #or something idk #also i am not including alicent trying to take luke's eye and injuring rhaenyra as cathartic because they are not the cause of her sufferin #house of the dragon #not asoiaf thoughts #daenerys targaryen #lysa arryn #cersei lannister #lady stoneheart #alicent hightower #rhaenyra targaryen #helaena targaryen #rhaenys targaryen

the abortion debate really shows how many people judge others worth based on their ability to have a child. i cannot comprehend how people have come back to the old arguments of "if you don't have a child you're a bad person and selfish!!!" or "a woman first's duty is to her children (or potential to have a child) no matter what!!!". how did we get here. HOW

#chenposting #i am tired and small brained rn #how did we get here again #i thought we were past this #omfg #reproductive rights #reproductive health #bodily autonomy #abortion rights #this can also include trans rights #a lot of anti-trans stuff is about fertility too

You said "remus is too busy being in love with karl that he doesn't realize prongsfoot are in love with him" so what happens once he does realize prongsfoot are in love with him? Will they get all his attention or will karl always be his one true love? If so how do prongsfoot feel about it?

LLAMA!!!! finally getting around to answer this, I will preface it by saying I think the horny ghost of gay Karl Marx possessed me and I cannot be held accountable for what you're about to read! Also, after writing this I realized that I completely ignored the "in love with" part, so that'll have to wait for part 3, this part 2 of the antifa wolfstarbucks saga is more about bookshelves, horniness and practical examples of communism than it is about love, sorrynotsorry we will get to the love part eventually!

Okay so this is a direct continuation of the antifa wolfstarbucks post, here we go:

They're all dancing and Remus still feels a bit strange third wheeling a couple like that, Sirius and James are making out passionately and he would give them their privacy but he can't because one of his hands is locked with James's hand, and James's thumb is slowly rubbing circles on the knuckles of Remus's thumb. Meanwhile Sirius put one of his hands in the back pocket of Remus's jeans, which at first made Remus really excited because he thought it might finally be a clear sign that they are actually flirting with him, but then he remembers it's his left jeans pocket, where he keeps the communist manifesto, so Sirius probably just wants to feel a bit closer to Karl Marx while he's kissing his boyfriend, and Remus's ass cheek is simply collateral damage. Sirius keeps massaging his ass though, but Remus thinks he's probably doing that to soothe him so he's not too upset Sirius is taking advantage of Remus's communist manifesto instead of using his own...

That thought makes Remus look up at the bookshelves on the wall and his eyes automatically start searching for the communist manifesto. He can see 2 complete editions of Das Kapital in all their beauty, and there is a book wedged in between them but it looks a bit too big to be a copy of the communist manifesto. Remus disentangles himself from James and Sirius, who break their kiss to look at him but he doesn't even notice because now he's standing in front of the bookshelf, staring at a copy of Conjectures and Refutations by Karl Popper that sits in between the two editions of capital. Remus lets out a shocked gasp and takes the book from the shelf, looking for another space where it might fit in better, literally anywhere else will do but you can't just put Popper into a Marx sandwich, that should be illegal (even if the whole question of legality might be a bit complicated in this context, he thinks, chuckling to himself because he's so funny, making a joke about these silly anarchists who don't know how to properly organize a bookshelf. Did they organize it by author's first names or did they put Popper there on purpose? He can't even decide which option he finds more appalling). Remus settles on putting Popper next to Hayek, shuddering a little at the spectre of neoliberalism that haunts that section of the bookshelf. He quickly averts his gaze, not wanting to discover any other Mont Pèlerin society members and looks for something to soothe his mind when his eyes finally fall onto an edition of the Communist manifesto and other texts by Marx and Engels, right in between Hannah Arendt and Rosa Luxemburg and he starts to really question the sanity of whoever organized the bookshelf.

Suddenly he feels hands on his hips and Sirius is pressed against his back, resting his chin on Remus's shoulder and even through the book in his back pocket he can feel Sirius's arousal pressing against him... well, against him and Karl... Remus blushes hard at how much he enjoys that last thought and he's only a little bit embarrassed to admit that he is starting to get turned on by Sirius pressing against his back, knowing he still has the communist manifesto in his back pocket. He turns his face a bit to the left, where James is looking at the two of them with a fond expression.

"Are you okay with this Remus? If anything makes you uncomfortable please just say something and we will stop!" Remus looks at James, trying to decipher what he could have meant by that. Is Remus uncomfortable with their unorganized bookshelf? Well, yes, of course he is. But something (it might be Sirius's hands running all over his torso and occasionally brushing his nipples in a way that does not feel completely accidental, but Remus still isn't convinced Sirius is doing it on purpose) tells him this is about something else. Maybe James is asking permission to keep kissing Sirius in front of Remus, and if that is it Remus wants to scream YES! because even if he can never join them, he's so happy to be part of it in any small way they let him be. And if Sirius enjoys rubbing against his back and touching him, he might feel a little bit used knowing it's actually all for James (and maybe a little bit for Karl too) and not for him, but god, being used has never felt this good.

Remus looks James in the eyes and manages to sound almost normal when he says "I'm good, I'm just really happy to be here with you guys" with a trembling voice, while Sirius's hands keep exploring Remus's body in a way that makes Remus think about sharing his means of reproduction with the both them. James's face breaks into a big smile and by the sound of Sirius behind him, he's also very happy about it. As if on cue Sirius starts kissing Remus's neck and Remus thinks he might actually faint any second now because this is so much more than he could've ever hoped for, and it's also so surprising to him, since up until 5 minutes ago there had been no signs at all that these guys might actually be interested in him!! At some point he must've closed his eyes, just lost in the sensation of Sirius pressed against his back, hard, with his tongue and mouth and teeth exploring his neck, his back,...

Remus makes a very undignified sound when Sirius bites down on his shoulder and Sirius stops immediately and asks with a concerned voice "too much?" Remus doesn't know how to answer this without giving away how much more he wants from them so he just turns around and kisses Sirius to show him that nothing he has done so far has been too much, Remus is so greedy now, if he can only have them for a night, he wants nothing more than to turn "from each according to his abilities, to each according to his needs" into a sexy, practical mantra. He's sure Marx would approve, he was all about acting on ideology and not just talking shit about theory after all, and Remus is so, so ready to act on that particular philosophy and give them everything he can and take all they are willing to give to him in return.

James seems to sense this shift in Remus's mood and gently grabs them both by their waists and starts massaging their lower backs while they continue making out. As soon as they break their kiss (far too soon for Remus's liking) James swoops in and pecks Sirius on the nose, which makes both of them giggle and share a look that's so intimate and full of love and adoration, Remus can't help but smile because he loves seeing them like that. Then James turns to Remus and looks at him with a clear question in his eyes. Remus can only manage a tiny nod, he wants this, he wants it so badly and he's afraid if he talks now he will ruin this perfect moment and make them reconsider everything so he doesn't dare. He just looks at James and tilts his head a bit to the right and towards James, who happily takes the hint and closes the distance between them.

Super lucky find at the antique store. Carved bone inro with a cat motif and a carved horn fish netsuke

#smokey talks #inro #japan #antiques #ive never seen this particular one online but generally speaking finding a bone inro costs like $200 minimum for modern reproductions #antique ones depending on the time period can fetch enough to buy a house #this one is almost definitely modern but it appears to be handmade to my untrained eye anyway #if anyone can find info on this inro pls lemme know! #i found similar ones at online antique retailers claiming to be 19th century and those dont include netsuke or a cord #but the cord on mine is definitely a modern nylon of some kind so it mustve been added by its last owner if the antique sites r correct #regardless im ecstatic to have this! #the website i found the others on are charging €200 i got this for $40 USD

[prettyboyscollection]

(draft from my main, disclaimer for anyone who sees this: this blog is primarily a porn blog and stupid debating will be ignored or laughed at, you can try it but i dont care)

ive seen a lot of people incorrectly thinking that the trans people wanting to be acknowledged in reproductive rights discussions are all trans women, and as a result a lot of backlash to more gender neutral language in those discussions is like “you’ll never be a woman” “you’ll never be pregnant, so this doesn’t concern you” “‘males’ will never know the weight of this sort of decision, we don’t have to include you in this” and/or claiming that trans women throw tantrums and whine about dysphoria when it comes to about female-exclusive language and discussions about pregnant people

(they do not btw. i have never seen or heard a trans women interrupt a cis women and say that someone talking about periods or reproduction or anything to say they’re making her dysphoric, that discussing periods is transphobic, etc. and even if this hypothetical trans woman exists…��� trans people are not a monolith. a few trans people saying stuff like that does not mean all trans people believe it.)

in reality, the people pushing for more neutral language… are trans men and nonbinary people who can get pregnant. “pregnant people” or “people with uteruses” or “people who menstruate” are not terms that exclude cis women, nor are trans people claiming that this language is being used to include trans women who can’t get pregnant (which is all of them, in the current world)

gender-neutral language with respect to reproductive rights (like abortion) is not misogynistic or erasing women or anything like that. frankly, i think it’s really fucking telling that people think that defining womanhood and being female by reproductive capability is cool and woke and feminist. “if you can have children, you’re always going to be female” is an outdated belief that doesn’t serve anyone but cis women and instead harms anyone who’s not a woman but can get pregnant.

“pregnant people” does not erase women, it just includes non-women who can also get pregnant. that’s all. it’s acknowledging a fact. it’s not some long-con game to remove cis women from existence, it’s literally just acknowledging that not all people who can get pregnant are women

#transandrophobia #transphobia // #misogyny // #‘saying pregnant people ignores women’ women are included in the word people. dumbass #i remember just after roe v wade got overturned i saw several posts from radfem types saying that trans men who were asking to be #acknowledged and recognized as victims of that decision #were delusional and ‘not realizing they can’t identify out of oppression’ #and a lot of them even suggested we should detransition as a result of that decision #because we’re ‘always going to be female’ #which is an incredibly callous and cruel way to look at this. #if you really support trans men (which a lot of terfs specifically say they do) even just as dysphoric or confused women #how is telling them they’re trapped as victims forever like. a feminist statement to you?? #‘uwu you’re going to be a victim of misogyny forever so you should detransition and accept being female’ #and just……… accept misogyny thrown at us because of it #if you think that you are an incredibly cruel person with no sympathy for marginalized people. like full stop #women are not the only group affected by reproductive rights being fucked with and i will beat you over the head with this fact #until it sinks in. women. are. not. the. only. ones. who. can. be. pregnant. #cis women are not the only ones who need abortion access. they’re just not. and acting like trans men wanting to be included in these #discussions is erasing women #is transphobic and cruel #accepting that not all people who can get pregnant are women is quick and easy and free. trust me acknowledging trans men will not kill you

[desperatepleasures]

ok my current mental framework for how to reconcile the canon kkm mpreg is this (this is all speculation btw absolutely none of this is canon):

- many mazoku are what we would consider to be intersex- but it's just considered typical variation for them.

- being trans is also pretty normalized among mazoku, a lot of mazoku kids declare their gender/intent to transition as part of their coming of age ceremony

- all this is to say that it's not considered unusual for a man to have a uterus. this is the case even among men who do not have a vagina (i don’t currently have a headcanon for whether this viewpoint also applies to humans living in shinmakoku)

- magic can change things! majutsu is frequently used intentionally as part of transitioning....

- BUT it also can affect reproduction unintentionally! there's something equivalent to hormonal cycles that can cause a body to produce eggs and/or sperm when it otherwise would not do so.

- the above would obviously only apply to mazoku with innate maryoku! for half-mazoku, their physiology is more static. they display the same phenotype variation as full-blooded mazoku, but without maryoku their bodies can't "bend the rules,” as it were.

- anyway, in order to make cis mpreg happen, two things must occur. 1) a uterus has to appear where one did not exist, and 2) the sperm has to enter the uterus without the presence of a vaginal canal

- maryoku can affect where the sperm goes and even grow a uterus, though many mazoku (and half-mazoku) men already have a uterus, one way or another

- so any two people of any gender and any configurations of reproductive organs could conceivably get each other pregnant (though maybe not at the same time) as long as they both have maryoku!

anyway i am happy w/ this framework for now as it allows for both cis and trans mpreg to be a relatively mundane thing!

#kkm tag #cw for mpreg obviously and also vague talk of reproductive organs #more thought than anyone including the creator of kkm has ever put into mazoku mpreg #no one asked for this no one wanted this and yet here i am. here i am #mpreg tag

[sendmyresignation]

I didn't finish Girls to the Front partly bc I got distracted but partly bc I heard a few other people saying it felt biased or lacking a further critical analysis, I'm curious it it references any of the women who were involved in DC hardcore or hardcore in general, re the books assertion that hardcore is overly technical and masculine point thay you alluded to in your tags. I know that it was still a very male dominated scene but the continued way that some people act like the women who were there didn't matter or aren't worth discussing has always irked me, and I'm curious if you had thoughts

sorry, i just got the time to answer this! i wanted to be able to give some quotes so it didn't look like i was pulling anything out of my ass. but yeah, so while the book does occasionally mention women in hardcore, Marcus has this rhetorical strategy where she brings them up, but not without first diminishing their existences and then dismissing their contributions.

There's reasons for this, I think, actually. One is that she really wants to sell this idea that punk was more influenced by women in the 70s and then, suddenly hardcore happened and the "macho-ism" of hardcore meant that the 80s lacked the previous generations female presence: "its penchant for louder-faster-harder performances and frenetic slam dancing were catnip for boys anxious to blow off adolescent steam... [the mosh pits] drove most girls to the sidelines". This is true... but only to a certain extent and is also a generalization, the other thing is I think she just reallllly wants to make riot grrls this supreme influence on women in the 90s, like there were sooo few women in DC (not out front, not as personalities, as she quotes from Jen Smith). But, by writing off the entirety of the 80s, she loops hardcore and posthardcore together?? like rev summer bands were explicitly challenging the violence and the "hard" rhetoric with vulnerability- spiritually v connected to riot grrl. and, ofc, rev summer was conceptualized by amy pickering! like she is directly responsible for not just the term but is herself the catalyst (Marcus says: "The scene's previous golden age... was what Fire Party's Amy Pickering had then dubbed Revolution Summer" which I feel removes a lot of her involvement, esp when Marcus criticized the fact Fire Party rehearsed religiously for months before performing live, therefore they weren't a part of the summer itself and also stood in contrast to the Olympia-riot grrl values of anyone-can-play diy). She also, in an attempt to re-enforce this riot grrl linage into The Canon excludes women in DC who weren't direct inspirations on riot grrl (so for example, Chalk Circle is mentioned a hell of a lot in these histories bc she was a mentor for Olympia grrls after moving to Cali, wrote a precursor zine that a lot of riot grrls read, and was in a band with Kathleen Hanna, Holly Rollers always gets mentioned bc of Juliana Luecking, etc) but Pickering and others gets left out bc she's an imperfect role model (wanted her band to be seen outside the paragram of gender, she worked at Dischord, booked shows, was friends with most of the hardcore scene). Unsurprisingly, then, Marcus v. conveniently leaves out the black women in DC; Pickering's band included drummer Nicky Thomas (who is literally never named in the book, only Pickering is mentioned when talking about Fire Party which i find particularly egregious) and their first show was dedicated to Toni Young of Red-C and Dove who were legit hardcore bands.

She also is weirdly inconsistent about the contributions of female instrumentalists (that idea of personalities...); again, the members of Fire Party outside their vocalist are never mentioned, Unwound is briefly offhandedly namedropped but Sarah Lund's name never appears, Christina Billotte is mentioned and quoted when she's involved in riot grrl (Autoclave-era; later she would grow distant from the DC meetings) but is only passingly mentioned when Slant 6 is formed and none of her bandmates are named, Maria Jones is name dropped as a significant presence in DC because of the Holly Rollers connection but none of the other bands she was in are shared, including the all-girl, all openly queer Broken Siren, I could go on and on and on. Unless you were a frontwoman or directly involved in riot grrl, you were not relevant enough for Marcus to care about, which I find frustrating. who gives a fuck about female vocalists when the "technical" nature of guitar or drums makes them much more gender-locked positions in rock music? again, there's also a divergence about proficiency, as if attempting to perform complex, serious music was like.... giving into the masculine musical culture? which i find incredibly essentialist and insulting to women invested in their craft. Ultimately I find Marcus incapable of adequately accounting for the variety of women and their reasoning for being in a band during this period and it does a disservice to the history to simply pretend any woman not Doing It Correctly is worth forgetting or dismissing. so, hopefully that answers your question lmao. id still recommend girls to the front, if just because it presents riot grrl pretty unedited and the timeline is super helpful when dealing with a very fragmented small subculture and seeing that it gets preserved. but MAN did a lot of the analysis get on my nerves lmao

#if you want to actually read about women in DC i think Dance of Days (mark anderson of positive force's exhaustive history of punk in dc) #does go out of its way to track the contributions of women at every point in the scenes history (including riot grrl!) #its also a really fascinating supplement to girls to the front bc there's two or three events that are mentioned in both texts #from slightly divergent perspectives (like the benefit show in dc during the march for reproductive rights among others) #i think thats super interesting in the context of oral history and such but i digress #anyway. that is soooo much but this is My Thing now so. #my posts #igottheanswer #void-flesh

[raccooninapartyhat]

it's funny (and by funny i mean infuriating) that so many people who are read as cis women are told they can't get a hysterectomy because they're too young or they don't already have kids, but the second you're read as trans doctors are all too keen to tell you your best option is a hysterectomy for the most random things

my testosterone dose being too low is not solvable by me having a hysterectomy, and also I was 18 years old the first time I was told I should just sterilize myself

my ass when I gotta add two different hide autographs to my favorites on fromjapan and hope to god one of them is still there by two weeks (but I also can't decide which one I want more)

#one of them is like 200 USD and the other clocks out at 300 USD #They don't come up often and the $200 one has 55 people eyeballing it already #out of everything related to this skrunkly ass mf its his signature that would complete everything for me #I only have a reproduction from the hidden treasures box and then like #some guy on mecari has his autograph legitimately ; but photocopies it sometimes to include in X lots #so basically those are the two I have and they don't feel the same lmao #I compared both signatures btw they're basically the same if you've looked at hide's handwriting long enough #oough....excitement
