if i had a nickel for every time i put a song on a ship playlist, and then found out later that it was the same artist as a song on my homegoings playlist, i'd have two nickels

Do you still call it a cover if it's a performance of a traditional/folk song with no known original artist? (eg, the Child ballads, Greensleeves, spirituals, etc)

Day 27: Each of Us a Gift by Mark Oshiro

I've read Mark's book & TV reviews for years but had never read any of their novels. And wow, I loved this story about the power of community, of stories, of connecting with the natural world. It is dark and painful and very full of love.

Is he a trans man?

disclaimer: this is a hc, not speculating on what the writers intentions were.

Loid Forger (Spy x Family)

Yes, they are a trans man

No, but they're not cis

Sure, why not

I like this headcanon, but I also like seeing them depicted as cis

No, I view them as cis

I don't know this character but they have trans vibes

I don't know this character

reason: In a show about secret/hidden identities and Loid being a stealth trans man just adds another layer to that......(also. t4t yor/loid anyone?)
