Dear aphobes, could you get a little lower? No, lower. Six feet under

Dear biphobes, wanna know why I’m sitting? It’s because I can’t STAND you

Dear homophobes, if I could, I’d recreate the pie scene from The Help

Dear transphobes and TERFs, Does your mother ever reflect on her mistakes? Mistakes like you

Dear queerphobes, can you see when your head’s so far up your ass?

hey uh PSA—I really don’t like it when people trigger tag my posts about being queer. “q slur” is super insensitive and was started by TERFs, and “q word” makes queer sound like it’s as bad as the r word.

if you’ve been asked to use either of those tags on all posts about queerness, or absolutely refuse to stop, then please just don’t reblog any of my posts about queerness period. thanks for your time 💖

LGBT person: I don't like to be queer, please don't call me that because I consider it a slur

Y'all: Oh okay, so you're saying I can't reclaim it? You're saying you hate queer people? Fuck you. I'm here. I'm queer. Kiss my queer ass queerphobe. If you don't like the word queer then you can just fuck off out of the queer community and die. It's not a slur you stupid piece of shit because I said so. You have to reclaim it or get out of the queer community because a majority of us like being called queer.

Note:

If you are not disabled, if you are not gay, if you are not trans, don’t ever lecture me about what terms I can and cannot find offensive, because that is damn ableist, homophobic, and transphobic.

I am allowed to find “l*me” offensive as a disabled person.

I am allowed to use “queer” as a queer person.

I am allowed to dislike the term “lesbian” because it was personally oppressive.

And you, as an able-bodied cishet, are not allowed to tell me what you think is right for my identities.

19 27 and 41 for mito :)

19. What were your character’s deepest disillusions? In life? What are they now? 

It’s very hard to make Mito believe that anyone might be acting out of ill will (womp womp...) Even when she accepts the possibility of someone harboring ill will, getting her to believe that this person might not be willing to treat her as a equal is just as hard. Likewise, she tends to believe that everything has a solution-- not a perfect solution, but an adequate, effective solutions, and that those solutions are worth finding. This is something that has been purposefully used against her in her time in Ganeiian politics, but this fact hasn’t shaken the belief one bit. 

On a different note, one of Mito’s early beliefs was that her being transported to Ganeii was a test for her to make her way back home. She’s gradually eased into the idea that she will never return to earth, but when her powers start to inch into the realm of the extraordinary, the hope of returning home makes a silent, dangerous comeback. 

Overall however, Mito has not really made to be shaken in her certainties: part of the difficulty of her situation is that she is the perfect person to be the Passer in the time of Ganeii’s philosophical revolution: invested in abstract rationality, process-oriented, stubborn, clever. She’s been placed in a niche designed as if to fit her desires as a precocious 12 year old. Whatever she learns is merely learning, and what things she believes deeply are hard to pull out of their own systems of logic. (The exception to this being of course her relationship with Chadanaiy, wherein the difficulty lies in Chadanaiy’s unwillingness to ever make her critiques of Mito’s assumptions explicit in word.) 

27. How do they relate to their appearance? How do they wear their clothing? Style? Quality? 

Mito has politely accepted that she is beautiful. She doesn’t quite believe it in the absolute (she retains the memory of being the awkward, dumpy nerd in middle school) but understands that her position in Ganeii’s beauty standards is it’s own unique thing: assessments reflective of those who project it upon her. She knows which of features are considered to be striking, and takes this knowledge with the same anthropological curiosity she takes most things. Describing human western beauty standards is one of her go-to teachable anecdotes, and she’s gradually exaggerated it into absurdity as she’s grown older and continued to tell it. She also takes a kind of pride in the neutrality with which she sees her own traits.

However, these are ideas of beauty Chadanaiy has never reflected to her, and it makes her nervous. She’s often tempted to ask Chadanaiy for her opinion on her appearance, but knowing that Chadanaiy has come to accept herself as the opposite of beautiful, holds back on that line of questioning. Instead, she questions Chadanaiy on the beauty of others, the beauty of objects and craft, nature and design. 

Clothing, however, is rooted in agency, and is her playground. She loves to dress up, and treats outfits like experiments-- her outfits are diverse and eccentric. At times she’s requested to connect weavers from different regions and get them to collaborate, or gone to tailors to inquire about producing new attire, often under the excuse of practical study. When deciding to dress up, she wears whatever most fascinates her at the time (usually maximalist, cluttered, extravagant stuff) but uses a series of default Passer’s red/magenta-colored tunics as a transitional outfit, sometimes with a set of jewelry or a headpiece. 

41. Is your character aware of who they are? Strengths? Weaknesses? Idiosyncrasies? Capable of self-irony? 

Self-evaluation is a strange topic for Mito. On one hand, she has a comfortable knowledge of her abilities and has no issues recognizing her faults. She also welcomes commentary on her person and makes it her job to consider those exterior evaluations in her evaluations of herself. However, she is at times oblivious as to her effect on others-- being unusual is the background radiation of her life, and the extent to which the context in which her choices and way of being exist impacts their meaning is something she has not been ready to fully understand. Her weaknesses and strengths are amplified, become topics of conversation, deconstructed and resonant in the mouths of the people who surround her, but this is a fact that she pushes away. She’s capable of tremendous amount of self-irony surrounding her extra-ordinary status, but her humor about the topic makes light of something that is more serious than she would like to recognize.
