sorry, i've been making many, many realizations about my past relationships these past few days. i think Providence allowed me to become trans so that i could, finally, love myself for who i am. but this form of intense self-love involves some temporary, immediate pain. that usually takes the form of abandoning destructive friendships & reevaluating my relationship with my parents
I hate this compulsion people seem to have of "humanizing" everything. I know it's not that deep, but... why can't characters that aren't humans just be allowed to stay that way, to keep the essential traits that make them, them? What's so appealing about stripping back everything that makes them different to just make them another old human? Is that the only way you can be interested in them and their stories?
Plus as soon as you turn like... a dragon, orc, alien, skeleton etc into a human, you can't avoid giving them a race and saddling them with all the baggage and assumptions that come with that.
so many good points here! i personally enjoy exploring "what if" scenarios and taking the challenge of trying to translate a character from one form to another, but i don't disagree with you. it can seem like people do this because they didn't take the OG design seriously enough, and have to turn it into a more "relatable" form to fully appreciate the character. sometimes it verges on the assumption that non-human ch
aracters aren't capable of having as much complexity as a human. and that's a really... disappointing thought. honestly, at that point, they just need to make an OC inspired by that character.
i mean, people do this with human characters too. imagining them as animals. i hate to be that guy but most artists that even bother imagining what their favorite character would look like in another universe probably does so because they think its hot 😭
and there are more people out there willing to um... draw certain art of human characters than weird monsters
& I'm sure they wouldn't care about the oppression of LGBTQ+ under the Nazi regime. For people that talk so much about preserving history, they really know nothing about it
I've tried humanizing & empathizing with my parents my whole life (bc they literally made me to be this way), but thinking about all of the ridiculous statements they've made makes it really hard to be compassionate torwards them. In fact, I would rather be anywhere else than with them

sorry, i'm kinda rambling rn and my thoughts aren't very cohesive. i think i am going to go to bed now
I’m not trans, I’m gay, and I wholeheartedly agree. It took me a very long time, but finally I’ve recently come to actually like the fact that I’m gay after years and years of wishing I wasn’t, and then accepting it with neutrality. I’m 26 now and only maybe a year ago did I come to the place where I wouldn’t change things given the opportunity.
The early Christians, the christians living under Tokugawa Ieyasu, many Muslims in the world today, pretty much any religious person in North Korea, all love their god enough that all the hate in the world couldn’t sway them and that’s a beautiful thing. I love my god as much too, but I finally also love myself enough to say the same.
Thank you for talking about this I think it’s important for people who aren’t in that place yet. And sorry for rambling myself lol
