Toby Stephens as James Flint BLACK SAILS | 1.07

[image description: five closeup gifs of Flint's face during his drunken breakdown with Eleanor. In all the gifs, the lighting is soft and warm. Strands of his hair lankly frame his forehead. His eyes are dark in the low lighting, and he looks very sad.

Me telling the newly adopted dog we are not going to continue walking through the intersection until she sits: "But I will stand here with you for an hour, a day, a year while you find a way to accept this outcome..."

i do mean this in the most light hearted way but also in genuine personal shock that over ten years have gone by and certain things i assumed were “fandom common knowledge” just. aren’t. like what do you mean the girlies (gender neutral) don’t know that colin specifically learned to juggle for the scene in 5x01. girlies am i misinterpreting or did you know this. i can’t believe the passage of time did this to us.

adhd-merlin

of course I know this. he learned from a circus performer. he wanted to juggle more items but he only had a day to learn. next question

adhd-merlin

detransition

an excerpt | read the full thread by eliza mondegreen

Phobia indoctrination instills irrational fears in members of a high-control group and uses those fears to manipulate members so they won't question the group's beliefs or try to leave. Here's what phobia indoctrination looks like in the trans community:

Telling community members that anyone who questions gender identity or transition (even if from a place of genuine care and concern) hates them, 'denies their existence,' or even wants them dead.

Pushing community members, especially naive children/young people, to cut themselves off from friends & loved ones who may question or contradict the trans community, or may simply fail to follow elaborate and bizarre protocols trans communities lead young members to expect.

Creating the false impression of a trans murder epidemic, which binds members to the trans community & increases their fear of the outside world out of all proportion to actual risk.

Inflating suicide risk & presenting transition as the only alternative to suicide when it comes to dealing with gender dysphoria. This increases desperation to transition, suppresses questions or doubts a person may have, & pushes patients to conceal other issues from doctors.

Vilifying and attacking detransitioners as traitors and existential threats to the community, thus demonstrating to current members of the trans community *exactly what will happen to them* if they step out of line or—god forbid—leave.

Teaching community members to bury their own questions and doubts by labeling any uncertainty about gender identity, transition, or community dynamics as manifestations of "internalized transphobia" that cause harm not just to the individual but to ALL TRANS PEOPLE.

thinking about detransition? you are not alone

Another trope I'll never get tired of: the stealthy character who somehow manages to sneak up on people or vanish completely unseen and unheard. I love it so much and yes I unabashedly used it in my work.

leave-her-a-tome

And that ONE character their stealth is useless against. For example, character A finishes an important discussion and as the last person walks from the room, they'll call out, "you can come out now." Character B comes crashing down the chimney in a cloud of dust like: "how did you know I was here??"
