Got this comment on my first fanfic I've ever written and it feels good! The EXACT reaction I wanted from the newest chapter. Chapter 1 and 2 were establishing, maybe a lil' mystery. But chapter 3. 3 is the one where I actually start the plot of the fic.

Anyway! It's a fic about Shadow from Sonic the Hedgehog. It started as a vent idea from some of his conflicting characterization over the years, and since then it's grown into its own life.

I really want to just talk about it but I would give spoilers so if people could just read it that'd be awesome!

Spin the wheel. That's who's trying to kill you.

Spin the wheel again. That’s who’s trying to protect you.

(If you have zero idea about a name you got, spin until you see someone you recognize.)

Are you safe?

Absolutely not. I'm dead. 100% dead.

I might stay alive, but it'll be a really close thing.

I'll take some hits, for certain, but I should be okay in the end.

A few attacks might get through, but nothing concerning.

The attacker might be able to get in one lucky hit. If that.

I am the opposite of worried. I'm 100% safe.

…Look. I've tried picturing this. But I honestly don't know how to answer.

Remaining time: 5 days 13 hours

(I've run this poll twice before, expanding it significantly for the second run. With about a year passed since that second run, I thought it was time to add another couple hundred names to the list and have another go.)

the problem with having a cool/enby/colorful haircut if you live in a place like Poland is that you end up having the same hair as your grandma. and many grandmas out on the streets will have wilder colors and better color matched wardrobe than you.

I just saw somone little in a long coat and short purple hair and a turquoise beret and thought that was my enby ex but then they turned around and it was literally somebody's grandma. the struggle is real

how dare you hide this in the tags

like fundamentally the concept of the femboy is what a transmisogynistic society wants out of transfems- for us to be skinny, white, and young, for us to put the maximum effort into passing but to still maintain and affirm the sexgender binary by identifying with our agab. and, of course, to be sexually available. they want us to do that or die.

[strawberry-crocodile]

the idea of a young transfem finding this as her only option, her shaving meticulously and spending an hour a day doing makeup and voice training and cutting her weight, and after all that to not even ask to be respected as anything but a submissive sex object thats still Biologically Male... harrowing. surely some people are happy that way but...

i hate how pervasive the r-word has become again

its like the 2000s to early 2010s again where talking to anyone theres a good chance they'll casually say a slur without any thought

[rockergiirl]

and whats even more annoying now is people who'll try to weasel out of being called out on it

'oh its fine because i'm legally mentally disabled so i can say it' NOT HOW RECLAMATION WORKS

[rockergiirl]

AND SAME WITH DEGENERATE

STOP TALKING LIKE A FUCKING NAZI

Oh oh what a happy family oh

trans people don't need to hear your justifications for still enjoying harry potter in 2026 stop looking for forgiveness where you're not going to get it

[infectiouspiss]

if i walk into your house and see harry potter stuff, i'm just gonna assume you're a transphobe. no amount of "i got it from a charity shop" can save you from the fact that you value those books enough to display them in your home.

you can't just put the work of someone who's currently trying to eradicate trans people on display without being questioned about it, especially if you claim to care about us.

same goes for your social media, if you're willing to keep putting jkr's work on a podium and proudly talking about it, then it's simply logical to believe that you don't care about other people. it's selfish if i'm being honest, to think that your comfort matters more than the lives of millions.

[infectiouspiss]

and to the trans people saying that they're "reclaiming harry potter for the trans community"

no you're not, you can't do that while jkr and her neo nazi friends are currently trying to kill you. you need to let go or else your own community won't be happy to help you when our collective rights are stripped further away.

[infectiouspiss]

trans children in the uk are killing themselves because of the things jkr has done.

children are dead. children who should be happy and free to be themselves are fucking dead because jkr has used her immense wealth and social power to change laws specifically to harm trans people. if you really think that your fucking "comfort characters" are more important than the lives of children then you should say that with your full chest. go on. tell the entire world that you don't give a fuck about dead kids. that you don't have an ounce of empathy in your disgusting shrivelled heart, because you still have your shitty fucking books and your garbage movies. your comfort matters more than anything, doesn't it? maybe jkr will tell you you're one of the good ones, wouldn't that be nice?

[this-is-trans-joy]

I remember reading through the archive of violence against transmasculine people (I needed to use it as a source) and you could sort it by location. In the UK specifically, pretty much every single death was down to suicide. The youngest was ten years old.

A ten year old trans boy is dead because of JK Rowling. There is no amount of reclamation you can do with her works that will separate her influence from the deaths of these children. That ten year old’s life was worth a lot more than some stupid books.

It’s 2026, there really isn’t an excuse anymore.

Please!! Does anyone want a commission like this for $40?? My pet is sick and I really need money for treatment

[angelic-soyo]

would you be mad to find out that the angel mind controlled you and your polycule and just kinda made you play board games with it

[four-cold-hands]

it's cute that the angel insists that it was mind controlling us and not that we all played board games and hung out with it of our own volition

[angelic-soyo]

Ok. What you're gonna want to do is chop up a cucumber and put it in a bowl. Then you're gonna sprinkle a generous portion of salt on top. Then you're gonna drizzle them with a balsamic vinaigrette and gently shake to combine, leaving you with a cool and refreshing summer snack. In 15 seconds dangerous and burly men are going to drag me away to an unknown second location. Remember everything I've taught you. I love you
