happy pride to non-binary claire

Excuse my ignorance, but... Doesn't the fact that Barry and Franklin helped Claire and Owen in Dominion, despite being wanted by the government, make them corrupt police officers?

I'm just asking to clear up my doubt.

so legally claire does not have a warrant out for her arrest. owen isn't at all a person of interest (literally has a government job) but claire is. "person of interest" is different from an actual warrant and it's closer to someone being a suspect in a criminal case. like we cant prove you did it, but we're watching your movements closely.

HOWEVER! that doesn't necessarily matter because regardless franklin gave two civilians top secret information about an undercover agent and barry gladly went along with two civilians observing an operation. based on the fact it all happened in a foreign country (malta) under foreign laws (barry is part of french intelligence, not american), what barry did is probably way more of a gray zone in the law. the international aspect will probably legally help in evading any criminal issues (assuming they're ever formally discovered) but it's absolutely corrupt to give your friends this information in the first place.

trans claire would be like are you a chaser to cis owen and he would think it’s, like, a euphemism for asking someone out (because it’s kind of like chasing them?) and be like yeah I’m chasing you and it would ruin claire’s day. she’d be in her head like KILL ALL MEN!!!! MALE GENOCIDE!!! but they’d sort it out a week later. and owen would be really embarrassed about the whole incident because being a chaser is embarrassing. but then it would evolve into a board shorts and itinerary-esq running gag where claire tactically accuses him of being a chaser whenever she deems his behavior or words too saccharine. and he’d fall for it every time. easiest ragebait of her life. his automatic response is to be like IM NOT?? how can I be a chaser?! I have dated ONE trans girl?! I didn’t even know until I asked you out. WHAT AM I CHASING?! it’s a complete victory every time she deploys it. until he gets wise to her trickery and starts going yeah and I’m chasing #that ass. he’s bested her at her own bit. but a man making fun of a woman? a little misogynistic wouldn’t you say. and thus the joke evolves. until it is one day completely incomprehensible from its origin

generally speaking, the cooler and better your offline political activities are, the more important it becomes that you do not post about it on your personal social media acconts

[dearinglovebot]

there's this one quote of ursula le guin from omelas that i'm thinking about: "the trouble is that we have a bad habit, encouraged by pedants and sophisticates, of considering happiness as something rather stupid. only pain is intellectual, only evil interesting. this is the treason of the artist: a refusal to admit the banality of evil and the terrible boredom of pain." particularly in the context of how people engage with jurassic's good versus evil dichotomy where it's seen as a critical error that the villains like hoskins, eli, dodgson, etc. are "forgettable capitalists" which implies a good capitalist antagonist needs to be the suave complex anti-hero they're always portraying themselves as.

we need to remember that billionaires have rich inner lives and tragic backstories yada yada. but the more uncomfortable thing to admit is that many oppressors don't have good reasons to hurt other than it benefits them. most men don't have mommy issues to justify hating women, they just hate women because it gives them power. most white people weren't bullied by poc as kids, they just like the privilege of being prioritized. and billionaires don't hate workers because a worker spit on them once, they hate workers because that's how wealth is maintained. the most dangerous billionaire is the forgettable billionaire without a "tragic backstory" or suave personality. the most dangerous capitalists are sam altman and peter thiel who most people can't name, who have no stage presence, and who are unapologetically willing to hurt people for money. we don't need to sympathize or humanize these people. the problem, in fact, is we offer them TOO MUCH grace. it is not normalized to hate the rich in the real world. most people are capitalists or sympathetic to capitalists. there is not a single anti-capitalist country currently in existence (arguably, that has ever existed), only "socialist projects" aiming towards a future of communism.

we need to sympathize with good. the flawed people who defect from capitalist like claire, ramsay, or kayla or the flawed people who have their lives uprooted by it like ian, alan, or ellie. good is interesting because it's the harder path to choose and maintain. it inherently has less benefits because you're willingly giving up any privileges you could have by staying in the system such as male privilege, white privilege, class privilege etc. we need to sympathize with the real people making this happen like the marxists being jailed for speech across the world, the people who resist with weapons and do bad things for the greater good, or even just the queer group fighting with cops every damn day to exist. evil is banal and good is interesting. anti-capitalists are a thousand times more complex than evil because there's a thousand reasons to be anti-capitalist from being born into a bad situation, to being screwed over, to reading a book.

my jurassic headcanons in the spirit of pride:

claire dearing: THEE trans woman bisexual who would never use either of those words comfortably. she is a “transsexual who likes people”. she’d be non-binary if the world was kinder to trans women but she’s 38 and doesn’t have time to investigate that. 95% woman/enby preference, 5% men because she doesn’t think men have rich inner lives generally #misandry. high-key demi-romantic and exclusively falls for whoever is her best friend at the moment. monogamous-leaning but could get involved with closed polyamory (throuples and shit).

owen grady: cis and het and allo but he did experiment in the navy. wasn’t really into any of it. bicurious where barry is involved however. claire keeps asking to watch. honestly probably more monogamous than claire.

maisie lockwood: nonbinary lesbian who evolves into a butch during her gender journey. she’s the kind of baby lesbian who you’d actually be more surprised if she wasn’t gay. she’s nonbinary but her gender is lesbian not any fancy label. gets gender envy from girls who pass as guys. a #realass lesbian yearner who makes those “I need a gf” posts

zia rodriguez: butch lesbian. she is not a “masc” she is a BUTCH. she is the quintessential queer not gay leftist transfeminist. proudly identifies as a dyke. she’s got something trans masc going on but butch is her gender of choice. open to poly or monogamy in a “whatever happens, happens” way.

kayla watts: masc-androgynous bisexual. has something genderqueer going on but she’s not concerned about labels. she’s just gonna do it. preference for women and gender diverse individuals but she loves love. poly leaning

franklin webb: that one very specific type of cis gay who’s nerdy and middle class with a mostly accepting family. he’s what we in the business call a “steven universe” instead of “ketamine” gay. very monogamous. not asexual or aromantic, he just gets nervous and awkward about it.

henry wu: something between gay and aromantic but he has evil science to do so he’s not really concerned with any of that. if he did introspection he’d realize he’s agender but he’s not gonna do that. probably asexual spectrum. but he’s really not thinking about any of this right now.

alan grant: old ass binary trans man who considers himself heterosexual despite having homosexual inclinations towards ian. do not ask him what a neopronoun or polyamory is because he straight up doesn’t know. he’s monogamous leaning but would be open to adding ian to the throuple

ellie sattler: old ass binary trans woman bisexual who prefers men. she’s far more hip about what the Youngins are doing in the queer community but doesn’t really consider a lot of it for herself. like alan in terms of monogamy

ian malcolm: nonbinary bisexual but he’s not very open about the nonbinary part. very open to having a mr malcolm but it just didn’t happen due gay marriage not being legal. leans towards polyamory which is why his monogamous marriages flopped

sarah harding: cis bisexual. very causal about it. doesn’t really see herself as “queer” the political class. she just happens to date women and men. pretty normie like alan but she’s a very pleasant queer elder. never considered polyamory as an option but she’s down asf when ian suggests it.

darius bowman: aromantic bisexual who’s nonbinary but not dysphoric enough to really do anything about it. like he’s not a cis man and doesn’t relate to them much but he’s not that bothered about being gendered and existing like he is. if he was born a girl he’d be the same way. he’s strictly aromantic and is only interested in qpr’s under the terms that it’s with another aromantic who won’t make it weird.

kenji kon: bisexual who went through the trans med -> nonbinary trans masc pipeline. I’m so sorry to say this but he liked kalvin garrah content. very dysphoric and (mentally) hated on non-binary people because he sucked at dealing with it. only to realize post-jwcc it was internalized transphobia about not being an “acceptable” trans man. never acted on it to others, only thought it. hasn’t really considered polyamory due to the whole trans thing.

sammy gutierrez: trans feminine lesbian. has xenogender and neopronoun tendencies in intimate circles but prefers strangers gendering her as female. pretty much no internalized queerphobia and is very open to exploring all of these aspects of herself. mostly monogamous but open to negotiated non-monogamy with her forever primary partner, yaz. mostly in the sense of letting brooklynn hang out in the relationship every few months #yasammlynn nation

yasmina fadoula: demi-girl bisexual with fem pref. identifies more with being queer than being a woman, but like darius, not super dysphoric and won’t really do anything about it. maybe she has she/they in bio. same as sammy on monogamy but despite her attraction to men, she’s not really interested in ever inviting them into the ‘cule. she loves it being a girls club.

brooklynn lastname: trans fem butch lesbian. was far more feminine in her youth due to dysphoria but began to grow into her non-conformity post-jwcc. she’s like 50% girl 50% it/xe queer lesbian Thing which fuels her butch lesbian identity. had comphet with kenji. like many trans girls, she internalized the expectation that women HAVE to like men to be women. but soyona (and yasammy) had her like oh nah this lesbian shit is fire. being a masculine woman who loves women (and who is swooned over by femmes) is far more affirming than dating a man ever was. very polyamorous which is another reason kenlynn never would’ve worked.

ben pincus: gay trans man with non-binary tendencies he’s often dysphoric on acting on. at most has comphet about “real men like women” but is not truly interested anyone who isn’t under the achilliean umbrella.

gia lastname: trans girl lesbian femme. had some reservations about her lesbianism (women HAVE to like men) but it’s just not for her. she loves when women are masculine like butches but men do nothing for her. pretty binary trans girl. wasn’t sure about polyamory at first but brooklynn introduced her to lesbian polycules and she’s thriving.

soyona santos: trans woman lesbian. she’s also part of the transsexual generation and is mildly trans med about Having The Surgery. but she also loves butches who don’t transition. it’s very strange. dating her is a cognitohazard. the first trans woman who is a trans masculine chaser? I’m only partially kidding.

the handler: trans androgynous agender lesbian but she’s not using the agender OR trans label for herself. she’d be butch if she wasn’t evil. hates men. wouldn’t be friends with one let alone date one. likes fems. but she has a weird lesbian yaoi thing going on with brooklynn.

mae turner: fem lesbian with asexual tendencies. she’s alloromantic and does desire a girlfriend but she’s kinda aspec too. maybe demi-sexual. might be a femme (also as a gender identity) instead of fem but she has research to do so she doesn’t have time to join a subculture rn.

roxie lastname: cis bisexual with fem pref. wants mae’s cookie so bad.

dave lastname: mostly aroace (maybe a little gay) but everyone thinks he’s very gay for some reason. he doesn’t really mind but he does worry about all the men he has to gently let down. he’s very kind about it to not hurt their feelings.

ronnie lastname: butch lesbian. your classic gay elder. they call her auntcle ronnie.

Happy Pride Month!!

[dearinglovebot]

claire is old enough where she probably uses transsexual more commonly to refer to herself and others than transgender and she’d have a conversation with maisie about it and keep using that word, not even shortening it, and maisie would be like ugh mom that’s not woke anymore you can’t say that anymore and claire would be like how about you “woke” on your homework young lady

happy 2 year-ish anniversary to this image

[dearinglovebot]

it's pride so if you see me het post outside of a bisexual or trans context you HAVE to shoot me in the head. no exceptions. i'm trusting you guys with this important task.

[sun-moon-talia]

in 2014 you could come on here and say “misogyny is bad and more ppl should consume media that includes women” and everyone would agree with you. nowadays you post something like “if you don’t care about women you might be a misogynist” and the reblogs are ppl saying “ummmmmm this take is actually problematic bc the only way i can escape misogyny is by pretending women don’t exist :/” we’re so cooked.

WOMEN IN MALE FIELDS!!!!!!!!!!! 😤

[dearinglovebot]

2 me the butchest character in all of jwct is ronnie because it’s like. this comforting older woman puts herself at risk to protect a citizen journalist and her entire career is dedicated helping the helpless and she lives a very modest life in a single floor rural home that she probably saved for over the course of years. and she’s native with deep roots in her community as shown by all her art. and she’s just trying to do her best for everyone. my butch ronnie <3
