======> [S] Kankri: Preach.
KARKAT: OKAY, SHITSTAINS, MY FUCKING PASSIVE-AGGRESSIVE EXCUSE FOR A— KANKRI: Ahem. KARKAT: UHH… I MEAN, MY *ESTEEMED PRE-SCRATCH ANCESTOR* HAS BEEN LURKING THE FUCK OUT OF MY BLOG AND WANTED TO GIVE THIS SINGING THING A TRY. SO OF COURSE, INSTEAD OF STARTING HIS OWN, SHITTY BLOG, HE’S GOING TO DUMP HIS HULKING LOAD OF HOOFBEASTMANURE ALL OVER MINE. I NORMALLY TRY TO KEEP THE FLOORS CLEAN BY WIPING THEM WITH THE FACES OF THOSE WHO IRRITATE ME, SO PLEASE TRY NOT TO ADD TO THE MESS BY EJECTING YOUR HUMAN LUNCHES THROUGH YOUR DUMBASS GAPING PROTEIN CHUTES WHILE THIS GUY TRIES TO TELL YOU WHAT THE FUCK IS UP— KANKRI: AHEM. KARKAT: UH, I MEAN, WHILE HE INFORMS YOU… ABOUT… WHATEVER THE FUCK HE WANTS. ~~~~~~~~~~ 6ef9ran hives are run with precisi9n. 6ef9ran lives require n9thing less. Awareness, privilege checks, and rules must 6e the t99ls With9ut them: dis9rder; cha9s; rampant micr9aggressi9ns; In sh9rt, we have a ghastly mess! 6ef9ran gru6s are m9lded, shaped and taught That life’s decided f9r them, willing 9r n9t In sh9rt, I am distur6ed t9 see th9se wh9 identify m9re with castes n9t 9f their 6irth 6eing marginalized and treated as 9ddities rather than accepted int9 s9ciety in the niche 9f their ch9ice! N9t t9 trigger th9se wh9 find themselves perfectly happy in their all9tted r9le— at any rate, traditi9n isn’t all 6ad— 6ut, I ask y9u! Culling um6er gru6s simply 6ecause they wish t9 serve in a different capacity in the machine 9f 6ef9ran s9ciety! A highly questi9na6le practice, certainly! If true change is t9 happen, these changes 9ught t9 6e Fraught with dial9gue, and checks 9f privilege. These silly n9ti9ns, like… Ableist culling practices… Lifespan shaming… Cis-bl99ded r9le assignments…! YOU MEAN, GIVING THE RESPONSIBILITIES AND THE HARD JOBS TO THE TROLLS WHO LIVE MILLENIA INSTEAD OF LETTING THEM LIVE OUT THOSE MILLENIA ON THE BACKS OF SLAVE LABOUR? Yes, well d9ne, y9u said it… …n9w, a69ut this 6usiness of privilege as 6irthright It is n9t fair, ign9res a y9ung tr9ll’s needs. Each individual in y9uth sh9uld have their truth, They must ch99se …EXACTLY WHO THEY’LL BE? Exactly. THEY SHOULD MAKE THAT HUGE DECISION ON THEIR VERY OWN, LET NO ONE TELL THEM ANYTHING BUT “GO!” Quite right. AND WHEN THEY FUCK THEIR LIFE UP CAUSE THEY’RE ALL ALONE THEIR THINKPANS FULL OF JOY SHOULD OVERFLOW That’s… n9t quite what I— IT’S TIME THEY LEARNED TO MAKE THEIR OWN DECISIONS, Yes, that’s 6etter, TO FUCK UP HARD, AND DEAL WITH THAT WITH PRIDE 6ut I— I’M GLAD I HAD NO ONE TO AID IN MY TIRADES, IT’S NO BIG DEAL THAT HALF OF MY FRIENDS DIED! ~~~~~~~~~~
Karkat, I— FUCKING SAVE IT. 9h dear. He st9mped 9ff… I’m afraid I must have d9ne s9mething t9 trigger him. H9w I wish pe9ple w9uld list their triggers…

I really must learn t9 p9st these things 9n my 9wn 6l9g, 6ut the "audi9 p9st" 6utt9n is s9 much harder t9 find than the "re6l9g" 9ne. Perhaps I'll get Cr9nus t9 help me, he seems t9 have a firm grasp 9f this "pretenti9us artist" 6usiness...
