#JUST TALK FOR THE LOVE OF CHUCK

[v7n5]

Tyler, I'm grateful to you; for everything that you've done for me.

I can imagine Tyler helping Narrator stand up to his bullies not through the classic savior type of way but through the Tyler Durden method. He'd tell him something like "I'm gonna beat the shit out of you, you're gonna fight back, and we're gonna keep doing this until you've gathered up enough courage to do the same to them, because the adults in your life aren't doing jack to put an end to this", basically turning a portion of Narrator's childhood into a more messed up version of Karate Kid (i suppose it's kinda like a manifestation of Narrator's self-loathing early on.)

These lines from the movie gave me the idea of Narrator conjuring up Tyler wayyy before the fight at Lou's tavern, the initial introduction on the airplane, and even before them checking each other out at the nude beach. It's pretty interesting to think about, and I found a Reddit post discussing this theory too.

After that Tyler went into hibernation for 20 years or so, then made a comeback because he could sense the Narrator was turning back to being spineless and feeble and becoming the kind of grown-up that they both hated. Narrator got a gut punch from Tyler as a coming-back-home gift and he was like "this feels oddly familiar" lol

Essentially, the whole thing happened because Narrator never grew out of his imaginary friend phase.

#guys idk what im talking about #fight club #soapshipping #OMG im so glad that i decided to add lineart #i've been itching to do that for so long but my stubborn brain kept telling me to not mix mediums cUz iTs cHarCoAL #just stupid honestly #and i was contemplating not giving Tyler a shadow #cuz i kinda wanted to replicate the 'people who arent real dont have shadows' concept in those creepy stories #but i just love my light and shadow too much #so is he real. is he not real. doesn't matter. chuck would've wanted the ambiguity

destiel angst but imagine a world where when cas tells dean there real dean replies screaming and sobbing “really cas? an angel of the lord sent down here to put gods chess pieces into place? how do i know your not just another false hope your dad made to destroy me?”

#this is essently just if supernatural did what lucifer season 5 did if i’m being honest #im bad at wording it but if you know what i’m talking about i hope you get it l #like dean being so scared of everything being a lie he lashes out on cas #every story needs there tragic love and god does this feel exactly like that #of course chuck would dangle this in front of deans face give him the perfect man #just watch dean fawn over him forever unable to have him #destiel #supernatural #castiel #dean winchester #destiel angst #fic ideas #spn fic ideas

• according to travis beacham max is somewhere 8-9 years old. english bulldog live an average of 7-11 years. so max has about 1-2 years left to live. and this process can accelerate, because chuck died. imagine: max is gone. herc had lost the last thing that connected him to chuck. he never recovered from the loss of his son and now he has lost another family member. herc was left alone with his grief. i–

• it can also be assumed that herc gave chuck a dog for his 12th birthday (or 13th birthday, but i prefer the first option) before entering the academy (a year after the attack of scissure and the death of angela) in the hope of compensating for his absence

• also english bulldog have a friendly, patient, but stubborn nature. honestly i think young chuck was just like that. and that somewhere deep down this little boy is alive

#it's just a few chaotic thoughts that haunt me #im ready to talk about chuck's soft side forever looking at him with max #i mean…have you seen chuck? #he's a cool ranger who acts like a jerk to everyone #but with max he becomes the soft-hearted guy #he smiles at his dog #kneels down to kiss #always feeding yummy #calls him handsome #and always gives his love with the help of attention and physical contact #and im SO sad about it #chuck gave max everything he wanted from herc #and now hes GONE #pacific rim #pacrim #chuck hansen #herc hansen #max hansen

Regulus: sometimes i feel more like a robot than a person. someone will start laughing nearby, so openly and happily. and I'm just trying to eat something and I have to tell myself to chew, swallow, then repeat; clear instructions on how to disguise myself as one of you. It's like I'm a piece of machinery, trying to learn how to be a person, how to be a human. But I'll never fully learn. Real people see right through it, right through me. Because I'm so clearly messed up, I don't react to things the way I should, I don't think things the way I'm meant to. I don't feel fully human most days, but I want to be. I wish to be human more than anything.

Pandora: ... I asked if I could borrow your jumper

Regulus: oh right, go ahead

#regulus definitely overshares with pandora but everyone else he never says anything he's feeling #like his friendship with pandora is so different to the others. i mean all his friendships are quite different #with dorcas they mostly just make fun of each other. make bets and complain about people they hate (love) #with barty. its a lot of barty mocking regulus and annoying him while regulus just flips him off #and with evan it's a lot of sitting in comfortable silence to a minute later chucking things at each others heads #but then with pandora. regulus just talks and talks. and cries (no one else other than sirius has ever seen him cry) #marauders era #marauders #slytherin skittles #regulus black #pandora lovegood

#like… I am obsessed with the idea of ‘pretty but will make you dance to death’ ‘classic fairy’ Tim. all tall and regal and lovely-winged. #now. chuck him in a spider (monster’s) den. for the lols. or perhaps for a spidery boyfriend… idk drider (i think that’s what they’re #- called?) Jon has been living in my head rent-free for the past few days. #natural enemies but they’re in love (or just have a lot of hatesex idk u decide) is always fun. especially when we’re talking monsters.

hi apologies if youve alr made a post abt this (if u have, then maybe u can add a link to that specific post?) but i just wanted to ask for ur perspective bc this is smth i keep getting hung up on and i rlly only trust u to answer:

why would abolishing gender be harmful to trans ppl if transphobia stems from emphasis on traditional gender roles, and the abolishment would further their focus on relieving dysphoria thru physical sex change instead of relieving it by having to conform to sociological femininity and masculinity as a means to adapt in this patriarchal society?

thank you for taking the time to read and answer this <3

no worries! i haven't made a post about this before since no one's asked, but i'll answer it right here for you.

the answer is, it wouldn't be harmful. abolishing gender would ultimately be the best for everyone, but especially lgbt people & women. however... the contextualization of this point is what makes or breaks it. let me explain--

trans people have a negative reaction when people discuss abolishing gender not only for the same reason cis people might (a kneejerk reaction to protect the status quo), but also for the very valid reason of wanting to defend transness in a transphobic society. it's the same reason why some gay people will react negatively to the fact that homosexuality is a social construct, and therefore cannot be innate; most people use this argument to justify homophobia & patriarchy.

the thing is, to abolish gender, sex must also be abolished as it's the primary method of naturalizing gender. sex is a social construct-- it's not natural. however, terfs and any garden variety conservative will reify gender through the naturalization of sex. they'll say, "cis women and men are natural, but trans people aren't. therefore, they must be eliminated." similarly, "heterosexual people are natural, but gay and bi people aren't. therefore, they must be eliminated." eliminated can mean killed or, forcibly dissolved into the "natural" categories via bullshit self-loathing propaganda.

a really easy way to understand why this is so upsetting to trans people is just comparing their situation to gay people or women's, really, as they are so similar. if you walked up being like "wow i cant wait for gays to be abolished<3" ofc people will assume you mean it in a homophobic sense rather than a complicated, radical feminist sense, and if you're focusing on the abolition of minority groups in particular, it does likely stem from bigotry. not saying that you've said anything like that lol, but those examples are the best way i can illustrate the point.

also, everyone on the internet hates radical feminism, so regardless of how eloquently you explain your point & how sensible it is, if you associate it with radical feminism people will ignore what you say, misinterpret you so severely that it seems deliberate but could very well be internet stupidity, and also throw tomatos at you. 😭 radfems, matfems & a handful of marxist, anarchist, intersectional fems + womanists are the only ones i trust to not be covert antifeminists.

last p.s.: we don't know what a society outside of patriarchy looks like. assuming people will continue getting sex changes assumes the existence of a natural sex binary, though it's possible people may change "sex" characteristics as they please. trans people's issue is not only being forced into gender roles, but a hatred of transness which puts them into a catch-22 regarding survival under patriarchy-- they're "reifying patriarchy" if they transition, but plagued with dysphoria, martyrs to a post-patriarchal world centuries away from us if they don't. perhaps, a similar scenario would be if you told a gay or straight person to simply see people as gender/sexless and to experience attraction, to give affection as though we lived in a post-patriarchal society-- it just wouldn't be possible, and for the gay person who is particularly vulnerable under patriarchy, it would more likely be traumatizing. dworkin put it so succintly in woman hating...

i hope that wasn't too repetitive or long, i just wanted to be thorough. admittedly, this is kind of a loaded answer if you aren't familiar with sex as a social construct, so if you have anymore questions, feel free to ask!

#trans inclusive radical feminism #radical feminism #asks #ex-terf #ex terf #tirf #trans inclusive radfem #sex abolition #gender abolition #transphobia #i love to quote Dworkin Quote which expresses everything i wanted to say but shorter and better lmao #i am obsessed with this quote istg. but i also am with many other dworkin quotes and her in general... #her succinctness is truly something to be envied. i simply keep on rambling and talking in circles forever #i was gonna make a joke about how dworkin wouldnt mind because mackinnon was also quite long winded loll #but mackinnon is succint she just also uses a lot of big words that makes it seem . longer 😭😭😭 #reading mackinnon is kind of like when you put your tickets into the chuck e cheese ticket eater guy machine #because thats how my brain sounds like when i read mackinnon its a lot to process #very good but i am going to need some time and a dictionary to digest this #perhaps this is why i prefer dworkin and hooks-- the accessibility of them managed without blunting their incisiveness & insight

people ignore jonathans trauma because he’s not pretty enough, and people ignore steves trauma because he’s too pretty

#when i say people i mean large chunks of the fandom as a whole #the fandom mainly hates on jonathan #but also loves steve and often times reduce him to the pretty dumb guy #make sense? #because huge chucks of the fandom dont care #nobody really ever will since its not the common thing #not saying people dont talk about it #just saying that not ENOUGH people talk about it for either to be recognized apart from the small chunk of people #it needs to be a chain reaction and theres just not enough people to start that chain for the main fandom to care #jonathan byers #steve harrington #stranger things

[clairenatural]

dean antis will cite dean's treatment of cas as the reason why he's terrible bad beyond saving & deserved death as if castiel himself didn't give an entire speech on why they're wrong

#also all their talking points are very easy to dispute in the first place but this is just the funniest #''i hate dean bc he was mean to cas >:('' meanwhile cas: #cas falling in love with dean is canonically the one thing chuck couldn't control. cry abt it #ALSO it infantilizes cas!!!! castiel is not a poor little meow meow at the mercy of 1 dean winchester #he can and does stand up for himself #negativity #fandom wank

Since we are talking about gooses death how the fuck did I not realize that the navy left his body in the water ...howww like poor carole never even saw her husbands body

i don't think they did-? i mean by the end of the movie mav has his dog tags and i don't think they'd pilfer his corpse then leave him to sink 😭 i'm sure they just didn't show airlifting his body out :(

#i also don't think they'd be allowed to leave the body there but i have absolutely no evidence to support that so #also let's talk about how fucking much i hate the fact that mav chucked his dog tags in the ocean #THAT WAS MY BOYYYYY #also like did he offer them to carole?? did she get a say in what he took?? or did he just steal goose's shit and throw it in the ocean??? #love mav ! hated him for that.
