dreamt last night that I was reading Death Note for the first time and everything normal about Death Note was there but there was also a giant wasteland outside the city where paramilitary cyborgs in mechsuits dueled for supremacy and there were six major warlords called The Five Cyber Lords who all had names like The Doctor or The Brawler or The Werewolf. Anyway this was all completely ancillary to the plot, which was still just normal Death Note, and in my dream I was desperately trying and failing to google "five cyber lords death note" bc I felt insane for never having heard about such a major piece of background lore in world famous manga Death Note before.

Good evening Tumblr, I may have found a new fandom and immediately drew 1001298 things for it. I will not explain what DOATK is, but just know it is essentially internet absurdity distilled into MSPaint and banging tunes

if you are not familiar with DOATK and recognize any of these people- no you dont

Tired and on a train right now but im thinking about raiden sooo much. I love mgs2 its a horror trans allegory to me

Raiden is so transfem imo. Shes been forced into this masculine roll her whole life and it comes to a head in mgs2 when shes placed in the huge role of solid snake. Now snake himself doesn’t even embody this huge macho persona hes made out to be. “The perfect soldier” solidified by shadow moses and only “corrupted afterwards. Raiden is forced to take on this overwhelming masculine role, a test subject meant to be the next generation of unstoppable strong men.

Raiden’s story is one of a struggle with self identity and being able to live a life for himself, and this can be read trans or cis, but its so so interesting for me to read it as trans. Going along with the headcanon that solid snake is transmasc, taking control of his genes as “the failed twin” and forging his own life; his speech to raiden at the end of mgs2 feels like an older trans person giving advice to someone who hasn’t realized themself yet. Live your own life, find out who you are, we dont determine what the next generation is all we can do is bring them into a better more understanding world. Dont try to be me and dont let them force you to be me. Its ok to not be masculine. (Sidenote this speech and the one at the end of mgs1 is what makes mgs4 so out of place and terrible but thats another conversation)

Anyway long story short i really love raiden as transfem. I think it fits well with her storyline, making her own identity, and breaking away from this deadly masculine roll shes been forced into her whole life.

Wrapping back around to mgs2 being a horror game to me, it feels like the culmination of a psychological horror story. Cant site specifics rn cause i havent been through the whole game in a while, but raidens story feels like a constant disconnect of identity (for trans and trauma reasons). Mgs2 is a scheme created specifically to shatter Raiden into the mold they want for her. Psychological horror meant to make her question her personality, her reality, and her choices. That can be used as a very good allegory to going through the most internally violent depressive depersonalization period before coming to terms with your identity.

Setting aside the rest of her story for a minute, i think after mgs2 she takes a little while to figure herself out. She was already a little femmy before and doesnt change much. Imo shes transfem nonbinary specifically. I think she prefers to be a bit androgynous it makes her feel good. But she gets more comfortable with openly wearing more fem stuff, and allowing herself to be more vunerable with herself and others. She gets happier :) she figures it out

#sorry just spitting out words rn #train thoughts yknow #my post #i just. augh. grips the hell out of her #mgs2 #raiden mgs #love to put main tags on stuff like this everybody look at my posts now #and to that anon that asked why i think raiden is transfem #you couldve been genuine but you also sounded offended by that #well heres your explanation of my thoughts but fuck you she can be #slaps metal gear this puppy is so full of trans people #dont get me started on transfem kaz as well #and as mentioned in this solid snake is so fucking trans bro #diary

Last night I dreamed that I had invented this file format, it wasn't entirely clear what it was actually for. It was text-based and divided into key-and-value pairs, where each line consistedof "(name): (value)". You then encypted the entire thing. The universe of Guilty Gear somehow merged with ours, or possibly a portal opened or whatever, and Justice was so impressed with this file format I'd invented, she tried to hook me up with Dizzy. This was sort of background narration as I was going around some building and a highway in a rural area.

While I was waking up, my half-asleep brain tried to actually come up with a fanfiction with this premise, though in practice it was just a bunch of unconnected momentary scenes and quickly went off the rails. My self-insert, as part of transition, gave herself the nickname "Dizzy" as an explicit reference to canon-Dizzy (just like my username), and things got awkward when we actually met. There was a bit where I got Venom and Zato-1 mixed up since Zato-1 is taken over by a monster-thingy (named Eddie, possibly as in Eddie Brock), and Venom corrected me. While learning to fight, possibly from Sol, I got bogged down trying to become an eldritch monstrosity -- "I wanna be able to summon and transform into dark mist which I can form into tentacles and objects, and I want to stop time, fly, and teleport! ... failing that, I want to use a polearm or staff of some sort" and then this turned into a whole backstory. I ended up sort of being a mom-friend to Bridget; when we faced off against oh-shit-it's-Actual-Justice-The-Command-Gear, I was just like "RUN!" and fled using with my eldritch powers, pulling myself along like Olivia Octavius and carrying Bridget along with like shadowy tendrils or whatever (evidently I didn't get the teleportation).

Happy anniversary of Bridget coming out!

On occasion, I will see a post bewailing infighting between millennials and gen z, both sides acting as if generational resentment is a novel concept. Folks, I have old news for you about the scandalous misuse of the backseats of Model-Ts. And flappers. And beatniks. And hippies. And disco. And punks. And grunge. And--

#do you not remember wincing at gen x and their uncoolness? #congratulations now WE are uncool #I'm embracing it but then again I was never cool #it'll be fine let's just chill #we are LITERALLY the adults in this situation #give 'em fifteen years or so #provide some non-condescending information about #the difference between self-censorship and slang #then recognize that there's fuck all we can do about that #unless we get our 'of elected-office-holding age' asses in gear #c'mon now we said we wouldn't be like our parents #I'm not seeing a lot of that purported acceptance #plague anchoress diaries
