Danny developing any chronic condition that leads to periods of joint stiffness (and other things, but the major part is stiffness) has a ton of angst potential in regards to his status as one of the living.
Imagine being something in between life and death and then your joints get all stiff for the first time. I'd imagine someone in that situation who is unsure of their humanity *might* just jump to thinking it was rigor mortis starting to kick in.......

instead of getting angry about people’s bad takes about characters being ‘doomed’, im going to redirect my energy towards a discussion of representations of disability and illness in utena and say this: isn’t it weird how the only characters that the vast majority of us agree are For Real Dead are ones who died of unspecified illness (mamiya and ruka)? like, there’s so much death in rgu, so much of it is taken allegorically, and i think it should be, but it’s interesting to me how little people question these vague illnesses. meanwhile people are locked in threads discussing whether or not touga is actually dead despite the fact i think it’s quite straightforward to say ‘maybe the show that’s about how you can escape abuse and actually live even having done bad things isn’t going to suggest that if you’ve been abused and perpetuated abuse you should just die’. like. guys. imagine if ruka was like mikage but 1000x more incel-coded. what if the real mamiya was also pranking mikage by faking his death???? i don’t know why this is just the mikage dunk hour but you know what can you do. anyway has anyone heard from my buddy kanae recently im getting kinda worried about her..

It's really interesting how people perceive blame differently in the fandom. Like we have people yelling until they're blue in the face about how Sam can't be held responsible for s4 and raising Lucifer because Ruby was manipulating him and demons and angels were manipulating him, which, fair enough. But then those same people also say that Dean is personally responsible for every single fallout from the Gadreel incident even though his only real action was agreeing to let Gadreel try to make Sam say yes out of desperation. Especially since a) he agreed thinking that Gadreel was Ezekiel who Castiel vouched for and b) he originally intended to tell Sam the truth but then Gadreel essentially held Sam hostage to force him not to. Like, yeah, it was shitty, but I find it really strange that if Sam isn't to be blamed because he was desperate and hurting and outside forces tricked him, why doesn't that apply to Dean?

like idk idk i wont talk SOOO much bc its cringy to be a grown man writing in his public diary about his feelings but its such a slap in the face that after my grandma and grandpa died and i was effectively orphaned my mom said she was going to step up and actually be a mother figure to me and here we are. what, seven years later? and what has she done to overcome her own internalized homophobia? transphobia? to even just fucking call me by my name. she wont even politely accept an invitation and then decline to come later, like. its so. FRUSTRATING. idk
