I guess that makes sense. About the trans thing, I guess that's just how it's been presented to me. I came from a deeply conservative background and am working through a lot of deprogramming and relearning. Also Tumblr lib programming to undo too.

 

I'm a little unclear on how the furry identity works. Is it like an LGBT+ thing where you just are this thing regardless of your feelings or desires, or does wanting to be a furry make you one? Like, I've fought against being trans much of my life, but now I see I pretty much always was. But I don't know if liking the puppygirl idea makes me a furry, or if that's something I have to have always been? (this is not a reaction to a recently popular puppygirl, I've meant to ask this for a while) I also may be terribly misunderstanding furries; that's a taboo subject where I live, so I don't know much.

Most of our write-ins are lumped together. Claudia de la Cruz only got nine votes here, one of them of course was me.

Midwest has been seeing a few spring-like tornado threats this past week.

Not sure if "psychotically" is the right term. One does not have to have a disorder separating them from reality to be reactionary. Though it is reactionary, for sure.

Breaking in and freeing the Ood. They may not understand freedom, but they deserve it!

I have a fair amount of trauma binding me to the faith. May have been brought up in a cult-like community. But trying to separate from Christianity feels like tearing off the majority of my self. I believe in Jesus, but I believe he taught us to love each other like ourselves, so all the hate and division Christians sow, to me, seems counter to the Gospel they claim to believe in. Some of them would probably call me a heretic or straight up a nonbeliever. So whether I'm really a Christian may be up for debate.

You can't call me an idiot because I can't read Japanese-- wait.

Well, it's even weirder because, if I understood what I read correctly, the Typhlosion was the only party that really could consent. It talked to the girl both in a shifted human form and in its real form. The girl I can only assume was underage because they kept calling her a girl. So the Typhlosion was the real creeper. Also this took place in some ancient era where the boundary between Pokemon and humans was blurred. It has Japanese youkai vibes for sure. I don't know about the other stories, though, I only heard the Typhlosion one.

'Scooz me, I jus'... there we go

 

Hopefully I'm preaching to the choir and the main response from everybody is that this is obvious and didn't need to be said.

I read a few comments from some gross cishets about how angry they are about the female Custode. They prop up the Imperium of Man as though they are some paragon of morality and not the picture of everything wrong with imperialism. Naturally this perfectly moral force would have only men in its ranks, clearly! They don't seem to realize that if women are left out we have a sexist/mysogynist system which is not worth praising, and if they include women then it's the imperialist machine trying to keep up appearances. Frankly, I've always figured the Imperium didn't care about gender or race because everyone is suitable to die in combat and be ground into food for the starving populace.

tl;dr Men are upset that women exist and missed the whole satire

 

I notice a lot of people use terms like "psychotic" or "psychopath" as insults and negative descriptions on here. These are clinical terms that are used to describe real people with difficulties, not boogeymen! I don't disagree with the sentiment that these people are doing wrong, but if you wouldn't use the r-slur or "autistic" as an insult (which you shouldn't) then you shouldn't use these words either. And I get the idea of calling someone delusional, but take care that you don't just mean "I disagree with them." Though by posting on neurodiverse I imagine I'm preaching to the choir.

Sincerely, a casual schizoaffective disorder haver.
