it's okay to draw for glory. don't let anyone convince you that art has to be a hobby. you don't have to rest or take breaks. if you feel yourself hitting a wall feel free to lose sleep over the process. you can forgo friendship if you need to. it's completely fine to want to want your art to win you immortality through your influence and canonization as a master. you don't have to take it easy

I wonder if Norm feels any guilt over the deaths of the 31s. I mean i wouldnt blame him if he didnt, all things considered. And maybe he doesnt, not really, but maybe theres a small voice in his head that sounds like Lucy that nags at him, reminds him they were all human beings just like him.

Maybe he looks at Claudia's injuries and thinks its his fault, because he woke her up so he himself wouldnt die.

Maybe he tells himself the other 31s were just collateral damage in his efforts to survive, and he hears his father's voice in those words, and he hates himself a little.

Maybe he comes to the conclusion that they brought it on themselves, that they were going to kill him and were willing to let him die while they fled to safety.

Maybe he remembers that they were part of an experiment that used all the people in Vaults 32 and 33 as disposable, breeding stock, stepping stones for them to climb to the top on.

And maybe still, that little voice that sounds like Lucy (or is it his mother, whose voice he barely remembers) that whispers that they were just scared and brought back to a world they no longer recognized and he had lied to them, put them in danger, and what would he have done in their shoes?

Maybe he feels a little worse. Maybe he decides its just how things played out and its not like he pushed the elevator button.

Its not like he was angry at Bud Askins, or the people frozen in Vault 31, or everyone he'd trusted that lied to him, like Betty and Stephanie. Like his father.

Its not like he had been warned about what happens when clever boys like him get angry.

i've made the immensely stupid decision to write a fic in second person and god am i struggling.

fun fact: debates about if being transgender is a choice or not are irrelevant, because the fundamental truth is of bodily autonomy - a right that should never be seen as conditional or requiring a suitable, immutable condition.

people who are trans deserve the right to transition, not because it’s a medical treatment or because dysphoria can be classified as a mental illness but because we’re human beings who should be allowed to do whatever the fuck we want to our own bodies! this is a basic human right!

THE CHAFF PROJECT

Hi! Are you cis in the UK and you'd like to support trans rights? Great!

How: buy a trans flag pin and wear it in public.

Why: chaff is an overwhelming amount of false positives so that when a missile gets close to the plane, it hits the chaff and not the plane.

In practice: the goal is to make it DIFFICULT to identify trans people to target with bathroom bans, and to create many FALSE POSITIVES for businesses.

Basically, you might get accused of being trans and kicked out, because of the badge. You say: I wear the badge because trans rights matter.

You follow up with a letter to the business saying you're fucking furious because some nosy dipshit just tried to play fucking genital police with you in the loos. You know lots of trans people (don't name any, if you do) and you wear the pin in support and you're disgusted at them for allowing this.

Blame the business for allowing the behaviour.

Businesses see that their cis customers are getting bothered over a badge and may clarify trans-inclusive policies, so they can kick out the bathroom botherers instead of nice cis allies.

You only need to buy and wear the badge, and you are protecting trans people. You can be genuinely heroic. Even one cis person doing this helps, and everyone you get to join in helps even more.
