ROARING

Introject, not an RP blog. Gender is something in between butch and transmasc (system host is transfem, though. it's complicated). Call me by they/it, NOT she. Bisexual. I post whatever, including some freaky shit. If you got a problem with that, fuck off.

[dessknight-found]

So fucking frustrating how everyone just assumes I'm still the same gender as when I ran away. Assumes I wasn't in the closet even before then. Every NPC in the dark worlds *I* made calls me they/it and you bozos still don't get it. Even the host of my system keeps slipping up, and I can't even blame her because "she" is all it ever sees in this hellhole of a fandom. Fuck you.

I suppose I shouldn't be surprised. Kris' gender is even more obvious than mine, and you assholes can't even get that right. You're no better than mother.

Held against my father's throne by his most loyal knight, her cold gauntlet pressed to my throat as she pours another goblet of wine into my mouth.

"swallow" a cold and sharp order.

The only word she uttered to me so far. Likely the only one I will hear all night. The castle lays in tatters, the kings head lays feet from his body, and my fate lays at the tip of her blade.

Story is wild

Little girl was part of a county fair agro-educational program where they raise an animal for a few months and at the end it’s slaughtered. Supposed to teach them about the economics of farming and stuff.

But the little girl loved her goat so much she was crying on the day her goat was supposed to be taken away, so her mom sent the county fair people an email saying “I’ll pay for the goat and any expenses. We’ve had several deaths in the family in the past year, I don’t wanna take away one more thing my little girl loves.” Technically the goat had already been sold at auction, so the mom was on the hook for about $1000, only about $70 of which would have been profit for the county fair.

The county fair people were irate and got law enforcement involved, over this “breach of contract”. They literally got a fucking judge to sign a search warrant, authorizing them to go to this little girl’s house and search every room and every cabinet or box “large enough to contain a small goat”. The sheriff’s deputies seized the goat, and whoever they gave it to immediately slaughtered it, though they were supposed to wait until some kind of agreement had been worked out.

In the county fair’s initial email correspondence with the girl’s mother, they made it clear that they were pissed off because the story of the little girl who loved her goat was circulating on social media making them look bad, and they felt the girl needed to be taught a lesson about keeping your promises or whatever. So they refused the mother’s offer to pay for it, and insisted they get the goat. Even if it meant sending the fucking cops into her house lmao.

[kunosoura]

the congressman who bought the goat didn’t have any objections to the family saving the goat from slaughter either! it’s fucking insane that the cops were so eager to play act their swat commando fantasies that they played stooge to the benefit of no one except some self important local organizers!

Alternate link, LAtimes locks their stuff behind paywalls sometimes

[theelectricfrog]

Don’t forget the part where the goat wasn’t where they had a warrant to search, so they drove 500 miles, leaving the area they have legal jurisdiction in, then searched a farm they didn’t have a warrant for ans seized the goat. The fair then had the goat slaughtered, even though a court had ordered them to keep it alive until ownership was resolved and despite the fact that both potential owners of the goat had decided to keep it alive.

They broke multiple laws in order to “teach” a little girl the “lesson” that “everybody has to follow the rules”.

I sure hope all of the complaints sent to Shasta District Fair CEO Melanie Silva, whose decisions these were and continues to defend her actions, are polite and don’t waste too much ink. I’m certain nobody would take advantage of the fact that the Sasha District Fair and Event Center’s contact page lists their phone and fax numbers, not to mention the email form below that.

I found the lawsuit filing. It is a work of art, brief and to the point. If you read nothing else, check out page 2, the section headed Nature of the Action. Magnificent.

One of the things that bugs me in the notes is a bunch of people being like 'it's a livestock animal, it's her fault for getting attached' and.

My dudes, I cannot emphasize enough that the little girl's emotional attachment to the goat is in fact the least of the issues with this story. The main issue in this story is the fact that a bunch of cops broke multiple laws, including the unlawful entry to the property the goat was being held, the unlawful seizure and destruction of said goat, and the unlawful use of a criminal search warrant in a civil dispute case, just to start with.

The little girl owned the goat. At no point in the proceedings - and indeed at no point in the proceedings in the course of the normal auction-purchase-slaughter of a livestock animal in this program - did the fair own the goat. At no point in the proceedings did the person who successfully bid on the goat actually own it - he had made the winning bid to purchase rights to the meat. He hadn't even done that yet! The goat legally and incontrovertibly belonged to the little girl. The very worst that should have happened in this story is a brief property ownership dispute in a civil court.

The fair CEO decided to unlawfully force the auction of the goat, and, when the girl's mother began to dispute her actions, to make a false claim of theft, with precisely ZERO legal basis, calling the cops on an already emotionally fragile child, and then had the temerity to be angry with the child's mother because the story was making them look bad on social media.

Regardless of your opinion on the meat industry, livestock slaughter, or 4H, 'cops drive 500 miles, perform an illegal search, seizure and destruction of an American citizen's property, on the word of a biased 3rd party with zero legal rights to the property in question' should make you angry. Because it is a violation of civil rights, and also had no motive besides needless cruelty to an already grieving child.

News to know: The next court update on this is sometime in October 2024. I'm watching this case because it covers a lot of different facets of how contracts work, minors rights, property rights in the face of law enforcement seizures and searches, and how does one county fair have so much brutality to wield against a then-nine-year-old. I would not be surprised if this gets bogged down again with more counter-suits. It's absolutely ghoulish that they're doing all this over less than 1000$ of goat and one little girls grief. I hope that the judge who sees this case knows just how dangerous it is to dismiss, since this is a matter of third-party property rights infringement using law enforcement agents as bludgeons. The Sheriffs *cannot* be allowed to maintain extrajudicial authority.

Ryan Gosling’s career has just been one long quest to climb the Warner Bros water tower

[notaplaceofhonour]

that man has been trying to climb this tower since he was 16. he has asked multiple times, and every time they said no, but now he’s famous enough & variety was able to convince them to do a shoot on the tower. it all led here. it was all for this.

I’m obsessed with the implication that this was a coming-of-age ritual where a boy becomes a man, like a bar mitzvah

[littlehimedanshi]

the depths of mahiros repression is truly really really funny and so real. shes so eager to be a girl and so eager to love girls and will act on it constantly, but she cant ever think about it or she freaks out and tries to go back into the egg. she flips back and forth between joyfully engaging with her girlhood and trying sooo hard to assert her alleged Totally Impenetrable Masculine Identity that she waltzes into affirming her girlhood so often. yes you are a lesbian sweetheart. you were so scared of becoming gay you didnt realize you became gay.

[littlehimedanshi]

One thing I keep thinking about is how afraid Mahiro is of getting specifically “found out”. There’s zero way this could happen, but she still is terrified of being outed as being “really a guy” and experiencing transmisogyny specifically in the form of immediate accusations of being a disgusting pervert, etc.

Theres absolutely zero ambiguity. Mahiro is a trans girl, she’s just repressed.

i love the tendency of youtuber speedrunners to acquire a pet modder that they dump all their youtube money into to make them more things to do with the game

it's actually trans praxis how much these youtuber white boys end up throwing money at tgirls for that

can we go back to acknowledging that ignoring someone’s chosen pronouns is always misgendering, even when you’re using neutral ones instead

There exists only 3 types of "femboys": eggs, transmisogynists and trans women who do sex work but the term femboy sells better

Oh, hard to watch, is it? Hard to watch these Black teens retaliate? Hard to watch them do, to an oppressor, exactly what said oppressors have done to Black people for centuries? Hard to watch a cop on the receiving end of a beating for once? I hope that Roman Candle was heavy.

Was it equally hard to watch when, a week ago, an Ohio cop assaulted the 15 year old Kaelynn Reynolds? Threw her to the fucking ground, shoved her against his car, pressed his knee into her, and filed a charge against her spitting at him?!

No, we know what this man's doing. He wants to rally violence against these kids, who have all, no doubt, already been racially abused, profiled, and harassed by the police. Look at his language. "Horrifying." "Severe." "Mob."

I don't know what sparked this, but those teenagers have my full support, and I hope they'll be okay.

Black kids and Black teenagers, you don't deserve to be punished for defending yourselves. You deserve to be safe. You've been abused and assaulted by cops, and you know that every cop is willing to uphold white supremacy, so you deserve to strike them. Yes, even strike first. You are not evil. You deserve to grow up. You deserve the fucking world, and nothing will ever take that away from you.

before my egg cracked, i had noticed that trans people were often pro-accessibility and up-to-date on the needs of disabled people, but i hadn’t seen any inherent connection between the two (other than the obvious minority-looking-out-for-other-minority thing). but now that i’m trans and medically transitioning, and i have to constantly repeat myself while talking to doctors and nurses, and explain things about my own anatomy to medical staff who should already know this, and having every single problem i might have blamed on my “condition” so nothing i say is taken seriously, all of the sudden i have a little sneak peak into the life of someone who has to deal with this all the time. like shit bro, being disabled probably sucks ass, someone should do something about this

if i was writing deltarune i would have included a moment in chapter three where tenna slips up and he/hims kris

[strawberry-crocodile]

like the two biggest things about Tenna is 1. he is outdated and 2. hes an incarnation of everything Kris doesn't like about their family. like if any one character in the game would be transphobic it would be him.

[strawberry-crocodile]

there's that one tumblr post about Noelle or Toriel being mildly transphobic and i absolutely do get why you would draw that conclusion HOWEVER. the fandom is 1000% not ready to handle the nuances of a woman having transphobic biases and still being an ultimately sympathetic character. yes this is also partially motivated by spite towards the kind of person who makes spamtenna have more fics on ao3 than suselle.

[dessknight-found]

Also would've made it even more blatant than it already is that he/him is not an appropriate thing to call Kris. Y'know, for the dumbasses on the wiki.
