I think it's incredibly important to remind folks on testosterone or folks who want to reverse patterned baldness about their options, but man, does it sometimes suck wondering how much of our insecurities about our hair stem from backwards beliefs that to strive towards beauty is not only preferable but "makes you good."

As someone with a rather masculinized body pre-medical transition, patterned baldness has always seemed neutral. Hair is incredibly important (hell, much of my own energy is spent on my hair because I like it), but the pressure to have hair, to have hair the "right way" is something that I absolutely loathe.

I'm not here to judge people who don't want patterned hair loss or baldness, I'm here to say that those traits will never make you lesser. Not only is it neutral, but it is also just as worthy and beautiful.

#trans #transgender #lgbt #lgbtq #ftm #mtf #nonbinary #this especially goes for folks who may be transfem or trans women experiencing patterned hair loss/baldness #i love you and think you are gorgeous<3 #i mentioned trans folks going on t because that's a lot of my own experience #i already had a somewhat masc hairline before t and now it's just settling in...#...i found that i'm fortunate in that way for having an already masculine body and i think that's why my changes are more...#...like unpacking your house rather than moving to a new home if that makes sense #but i find that the beauty culture around hair adds even more unnecessary stress for those who want or value their hair #i am beauty culture's number one hater

it answers questions…

#shaking the writers by the shoulders #WHAT QUESTIONS!! WHAT QUESTIONS!!#and if we take into account the scene from earlier in this episode where she says ‘he cares about you; you care about him. tell him you love #him!’ and THAT’S what causes house to snap and yell enough?#THE HORROR.#house md #greg house #gregory house #hilson #house/wilson #james wilson #hatecrimes md #amber volakis #the IMPLICATIONS!#there was so much to unpack with this arc #that I forget about the little details #like the fact that hallucination!amber sings that song in the bar #and it’s the same one that plays over house & wilson driving away together in the final scene of the show #what does it all mean…

My instacart shopper noticed I added Easter cupcakes to my order, so she texted me "Happy Easter!" in the app and I was like "Happy Easter, Passover, Ramadan, and/or Saturday, depending on what you celebrate!"

so after she dropped it off and was going to her car, she called HAPPY EASTER! and then HAPPY PASSOVER! RAMADAN! and I'm yelling HAPPY EVERYTHING! and she's like HAPPY LIFE!!!

and wow, it really is a happy life sometimes, isn't it? when everyone's kind to each other. 💜

#just me #I'll be real with you I just thought the cupcakes were cute and I like carrot cake #I'm not actually a christian #she also tried to take my groceries inside because I'm disabled but I was like NO NO IT'S FINE #ma'am my house is messy af I'm still unpacking don't worry about it #easter #passover #ramadan #happy easter #happy passover #happy ramadan #happy everything #happy life

Unpacking is very cute and I admire the type of narrative it's able to pull off just through the gameplay of moving into spaces. the intimacy of everyday objects, still life, environmental storytelling, etc etc etc

But i have Got to talk about 2010. Unpacking is a game where all you do is take stuff out of boxes and find spaces for it, and for the most part it gives you quite a lot of freedom about where you can put stuff. There are some rules - most things cant go on the floor, stuff generally has to be in the right room, the soap has to be near the sink, etc etc, but apart from that there's no wrong place to put things.

Moving into this fucking guy's house in 2010 felt like putting everything in the wrong place. It felt like I wasn't supposed to be there, a square peg into a round hole. His entire house is pristine when I get there, everything organised perfectly, evenly spaced, colour-matched, sterile. Throughout the level I'm shoving everything around on his bookcase to fit my hoard of knickknacks, putting my red plastic colander in the cupboard above his cool green matching set of plates and bowls, my bright purple toothbrush cup, hairbrush, and straightening iron clutter his pristine bathroom counter. My family of stuffed chickens is made to look silly next to his fancy mixology set and miniature sand garden.

I end up putting my laptop and drawing tablet out on the kitchen island because there isn't a desk anywhere I can use. My markers and hoard of sketchbooks are crammed into my bedside table. I'm not allowed to move his posters in the living room, so my university certificate goes under the bed.

I won't pretend that I, playing Unpacking in 2023, didn't know how the game ended. I knew already that the protagonist would move on from this guy, but even if I didn't, I would have been able to tell. It was not fun moving into his house, it was not easy or charming to meld our lives together, I did not feel welcome there. Moving in with him felt like a transgression, an imposition. Moving in with him felt like a wrong decision in a game where I couldn't really make wrong decisions.

An incredible magic trick of game design, in my opinion.

#also something about how pristine this guys house was #but like. the CDs in his CD rack were all in there at random #and his fucking underwear was scattered randomly throughout 2 drawers #just gave me rancid vibes. this man cares so much about the Facade. the Presentation.#and as a result his house has the character and charm of a fluorescent tube light #anyway. good game #unpacking #unpacking game

I NEEEED people—especially those with unfathomably large platforms???—to start doing just a tiny bit of internal evaluation before they log onto a blue website and say “I don’t want these queer characters to fuck in canon” or “I’d be fine if these characters never kissed again” or whatever.

This is a post about Good Omens and the prospect of Aziraphale and Crowley potentially having sex in season 3. It's a response to a tweet that I'm crossposting, but let it be known the above statement and this topic applies broadly across multiple fandoms too.

But anyway, in regards to Good Omens specifically:

I am seeing this take that essentially boils down to "Canon has now made it clear that these characters want to have sex with each other through subtext (i.e. Aziraphale and the ox), but I don’t want that to reach narrative completion because the idea of them having sex makes me uncomfortable or isn’t my personal preference” and it is, to put it mildly and delicately, A Very Bad Take.

This is rhetorical (and I do not expect or particularly want an answer), but: explain to me how and why queer characters who are unavoidably visibly queer (aka 2 "man-shaped beings") fucking on screen wouldn’t be a net positive, especially when you can indicate how canon has set it up.

Presumably, some people say things like this because ~they want to see them as visibly ace.~ Okay. But by some of these people’s own admission, there IS more evidence in canon now to indicate these characters crave sex with each other (vs arguing otherwise)... yet people would rather that be ignored/erased all for the sake of them feeling comfortable or feeling better about what canon shows or doesn’t show explicitly??

I’m sorry, but—speaking as an ace person, to be clear—your personal preferences for the story shouldn’t / don’t affect anything here. There’s too much in this.

Yeah, I understand on a personal level not having “representation.” I almost never see myself or my unique experiences and identity reflected in stories. And yet, I also understand that that doesn’t change any story or the world in which we live. Things like this are not said in a vacuum.

Any queer characters having sex on screen IS a net positive. It is rare and impactful, and openly calling for or hoping for otherwise when canon points to its potential is a detrimental alliance with purity culture, whether intentionally or accidentally. Because we live in a Goddamn society!

Who knows (other than Neil Gaiman) whether Aziraphale and Crowley ARE going to fuck on international TV. None of us do! But the subtext right now blatantly says they’re starving for it. And you don’t have to like the prospect of that, but honestly? We SHOULD get to see it play out. There’s no truly legitimate reason we shouldn’t ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Whether you "prefer" it or not.

And my ultimate hot take is… if someone balks at the idea of that or doesn’t understand the importance of it, despite even seeing the subtext… then they should perhaps unpack that? Just a thought.

Truly the way fandoms are managing to hit either “subtext doesn’t count :/ ” or “let’s keep it to subtext so it’s ‘open to interpretation’ :) ” nowadays depending on what corner one visits is MADDENING. Whiplash-inducing. Surreal. And so much nonsense you can’t pick where to start.

So! I do genuinely hope I'm not kicking off discourse but I felt this Needed To Be Said (and on more than one site). Because posts like “even if they never kiss again, we’ve won <3 “ make me want to be like…

These characters are YEARNING. Do not doom them and us to it. For once, we can reach for the stars and maybe–against all odds–pull them down. Embrace it!

---

[Update: after more discourse has occurred, I have somewhat elaborated on this further, from the POV of the significance of the queer themes in Good Omens and more specifically how they center illicit pleasure/desire]

#good omens #good omens season 2 #good omens spoilers #good omens season 3 #neil gaiman #aziracrow #ineffeble husbands #I'm OVER ITTTT.#this is the delicate version of this rant. trust me. I tried to keep it chill for the sake of posting on main #char writes things #PS adding some brief tags now that the discourse has Escalated:#Mr Gaiman can be pedantic on the internet and pretend by omission he's never heard of subtext all he wants.#it's not what his story is saying and I do actually think he DOES know how to do stories. so. love & light to whatever his deal is.#(what I mean: do not come into my house & try to say 'neil said the ox scene isn't sexual.' inaccurate + that's a whole suitcase to unpack)#(I have now written about All That at length elsewhere with exasperation but it doesn't need to be linked in this post lol.)

choreman is a house rarepair and yet they fit the perfect bill of outward rivals turned lovers because they literally end the show single and they are the only constant in each other’s lives. there’s a whole episode (s7e20) dedicated to showing chase and foreman’s repression side by side, foreman isolating himself while chase has one night stands with women. like this is totally overcompensating for something (i.e. repressed queerness). foreman literally says “what does it matter what’s inside of me if i know how to control it?” okay sure yeah. chase and foreman both have strong religious backgrounds and both rejected their faith for different reasons which would definitely lead to some form of repression. having chase and foreman literally battle of who has the best repression method is so clever of the house writers. there’s a lot of debate over who has the most of house’s qualities and in my opinion foreman is the most like house (although chase is the better diagnostician) so saying chase is house and foreman is wilson might be true but we don’t really see them have any heart to hearts. it’s all rivalries and light hearted jabs and competition. i expect all the real meat of the relationship to get expanded on post canon since they’re all they have left. they’ll cling to each other cause who else do they have? (house and wilson). anyways choreman endgame. goodbye

#house md #choreman #robert chase #eric foreman #there is so much to unpack with them #literally just hilson 2.0 #gives me a lot to think about

Love that Terra clearly had the worst possible understanding of Eda and Raine (thinking they wouldn’t team up to fight her as kids, that Raine wasn’t smart enough to lie through their teeth until the Day of Unity, etc) but even SHE knows damn well those two are absolute fucking losers for each other. Can you imagine how insufferable they had to be off-screen for Terra to openly mock it with zero hesitation. What did she have to bear witness to

#the owl house #toh #toh spoilers #for the future #terra snapdragon #eda clawthorne #raine whispers #raeda #talk #drabble post #'i like musicians!'#oh girl what kind of bullshttery did you have to sit through #i refuse to believe its one of those 'you just see it from afar' things #i know in my HEART. THEY ARE ABSOLUTELY HORRENDOUS TO BE AROUND #lilith likes raine she does she thinks theyre cool but she couldnt STAND to be in the same room as them w eda #my apologies but we all have to know those 2 were the couple that borderline made out in the school hallways #literally always talking in the middle of class and doing stupid shit #arguably its worse now bc theyre in the pining obviously from afar but we gotta unpack that later theres a world to save rn #darius staring into space in the single day he had to be in the same base as them as they prepared for the day of unity like. oh good lord.#i forgot how bad they were. how did i ever forget this. how is this worse. how did they make this even worse they arent even kissing yet #theyre so disgustingly in love with each other its like getting toothrot #which is the long way of saying F to belos when eda learns what he did #it is on SIGHT YOU OLD CORPSE

house: this has absolutely nothing to do with wilson

also house: [brings up wilson unprompted] [spends 95% of the session either talking about wilson or deliberately avoiding talking about wilson] [literally admits it’s about wilson]
