The Alliance Space Timeline

Alliance Space is the name for the shared universe in which the majority of my sci-fi stories take place. As this saga spans the entire lifespan of the universe, I figured it’d make sense to compile a reference guide for where and when each event occurs.

This post will be updated whenever I post another story.

The Void. Pre-Time.

Deep Space. 11,500,000,000 BCE.

North Africa. 95,000,000 BCE.

East Africa. 12,000,000 BCE.

Talos 1193-7-E. October 6, 3738.

My running theory around the “there was no build up to Jax being trans” conversation is that it boils down to existing knowledge of what pre-transition trans folks are like.

I think a lot of people went in thinking pre transition trans folks are all gender nonconforming and she definitely isn’t.

But among trans people and others in the know she was really obvious because she showed a bunch of clear signs of repression and a low level obsession with her masculinity. As a combo it was possible for that to be a cis guy, but it also heavily pointed to her being trans.

I’m really glad Gooseworx wrote about Jax this way. It’s one of few queer cautionary tragedies that I can get behind because it’s not a story of how her queerness was tragic but how her avoidance of it was. Of a woman who ripped apart everything that looked like kindness because she hated herself so much that she couldn’t handle anyone loving her.

i relate to this a lot. in a darker world i would have gone down this path. thankfully there is light at the end of the tunnel for some. i will stop on the road to the fabled gay town in the mountains to pour one out for my sister that never saw it.

Jax's story is almost literally mine. I was never as cruel as Jax was, but I did actively avoid people and things that would have helped me, and I leaned into trying to be masculine and avoided anything feminine as much as I could. I was just as terrified of anyone seeing me be feminine and thus seeing me for what I am as Jax was. I also almost killed myself. I had a gun in my hand ready to do it, but I managed to pull myself away at the last minute with the thought "If Im gonna kill myself anyway, I might as well try transition. If it doesn't work or it's too hard then I'll just kill myself like I was planning to." And you know what, it did work. It has been the hardest thing I've ever done, but god hasit been worth it.

I hate people who say "there were no signs" with Jax as if that's bad writing. Cause that's literally, word-for-word, what people said about me. Yeah, no shit there were no signs to you. She was hiding, just like I was, she was actively trying her damndest to not show any signs, just like I was! That's the whole point of the closet! They're literally doing the same fucking thing that millions of people say about us every single day when we gome out!

[Photo ID: a screenshot of the 2016 film Moana during the “You’re Welcome” song where Maui is on Moana’s boat. It has the captions of the lyrics but the “you’re welcome” has been edited over with a black box with new white text over it.

What can I say except It is still possible to save the environment, there is still hope and we must try

Yugioh abridged has been in my life since I was a kid and it has been wonderful to see both it, and its creator grow with me. I wish all the love to Little Kuriboh. May following your truth bring you joy and love and may the people around you be supportive and uplifting always. Thank you for all that you do.

I think I’m literally never gonna be sick of this masterpiece. I think watching it on a loop for eight hours could fix me. Dancing’s what clears my soul. Dancing’s what makes me whole.

I just love that this very video is an accumulation of thousands of years worth of art made by people who have never met each other. The concept of this video was so completely unfathomable to every single artist who made the sculptures and yet they’ve all put something toward the creation of it.

i hate it when people call stuff in this game "theorybait" and "lorebait" thats called foreshadowing and storytelling. theres an entire storytelling genre based around "theorybait" and its called mystery
