This year at Pride, we had the proudest bus in the parade, not because it had the most glitter or flags, because it had the proudest people, Proud Dads. Gwan ahead and warm the cockles of your heart.
I really like the way Sakurai said he didn’t include BOTW Princsss Zelda “because she prefers her studies instead of fighting” because it implies that every other Princess Zelda is 100% ready to Throw Down
So if BOTW Zelda could speak to the other Zeldas it would boil down to:
Gina’s always so sure of herself. She usually doesn’t care at all what people say or think about her. Maybe not with most people, Captain. But she cares what you think.
the government is doing a consultation on the Gender Recognition Act and possible changes to it. I really recomend filling out the consultation, I’m linking via Stonewall because despite having a bit of a mixed relationship with them myself they have a good break down of the various questions in the consultation if you don’t know the exact legislation yourself.
please fill out it out to add more voices to those of our trans friends and family, particularly if you could speak out against the vileness that is the spousal consent provisions.
it takes a bit to fill out but if you are pressed for time you can save and come back to it later and deadline isn’t until october.
THANKS
heres a bit more info for non brits: britain is not an easy place to be trans, let alone transition
– there is a complex and difficult process to obtain a gender recognition certificate which currently involves living as your desired gender for at least two years, with all the difficulties being trans in a transphobic society can bring, and no legal protection
– if you’re married, your spouse can block your application. you are denied the one legal recognition of your gender available to you. and as the uk does not have no-fault divorce, the end of that marriage could be very costly and painful
– terfs fucking hijacked the biggest most important pride event in england yesterday and the media reaction is. pitiful
– even if you’re not trans or LGB in britain please, please, this is a really important time to support trans people and vocally support the right to a self-determined, non-medical, independent of marital status, legal transition in this country
– the government has helpfully provided an online platform to do just that. i urge you to read stonewalls summary of this consultation and please fellow brits ADD YOUR VOICE because the government thinks theres only 4 thousand trans people in the united kingdom and it’s a fucking joke
The year is 2042. Your daughter is awkwardly silent as she eats her dinner. “Something wrong sweetie?” She sighs and puts down her fork. “I was digging really deep in AO3 last night…Why didn’t you finish that coffee shop au?” It happened. Your past has come back to haunt you. Nay, it never truly left.
U CANNOT OUTRUN UR CRIME
OKAY BUT WAIT. This has happened to me. Recently. Because I am old and I have things out there from previous fandoms with previous pseuds and one day my teenager begins a rant at me about people never finishing any WIPs on the pit of voles (which he does not call the pit of voles because he has No Knowledge of such a thing but yet he still reads on which I didn’t think anyone did any longer) and he points out an example to me of something I WROTE AND LEFT WIPing for ages and he has NO IDEA #1 that his mom wrote this and #2 How much it still haunts me to this day that it will. sit. there. for. eternity. because I am too lazy to pull it down.
