transition tips Tuesday - a very simple shift where you place your belt it can help you pass tremendously. Wearing it above your hips make you appear more femme, and wearing it on the hips makes you look more masc.

Part of me is like, I should really start wearing my pants higher... but I'm sooooooo used to wearing them low and it's soooooooooo comfyyyyyyy

Lines of thought that seem Normal but are actually rooted in extreme puritanism:

-Seeing the nude human body is inherently traumatic -Sex scenes in art are pointless -Wearing kink-related clothing in public is the similar to performing a sex scene in front of unwilling participants -Depicting female characters expressing sexuality is always degrading -People's sexual fantasies are always an endorsement of the behavior they want to see in real life -Sex work is more traumatic and coercive than other types of work The goal is to treat sex as just another thing people do. That is a much healthier attitude than hiding it! It's not uniquely traumatic, it's not weird to talk about it or include it in society.

Look i get that this was a setup for a funny ha-ha Paris Bad joke but how can you say "mostly untamed wilderness" about the "pre-colonized Hokkaido" which you DESCRIBE as "pre-colonized" without an OUNCE of self awareness?? How can you say this and NOT understand the explicit pro-colonial propaganda you're rendering for the Japanese against the Ainu???? You're really doing Terra Nullius for THE COLONIZATION OF HOKKAIDO??? you people are fucking SHAMELESS!!!!!

This kind of rhetoric is trotted out for settler-colonial project after settler-colonial project, btw. "A land without a people, for a people without a land" was famously used by (although not originally coined by) Zionists as a snappy slogan for the settlement and colonization of Palestine. The JNF loved to use the phrase "Make The Desert Bloom" for its Tzedakah drives, infamously embodied in these little blue boxes passed around among Jewish schoolchildren:

Zionists also loved to use the phrase "The Villa in the Jungle" as a racist description of the Zionist Entity's (The "Villa") relationship with the surrounding area ("The Jungle"). These kinds of rhetoric have a violent colonial history!!!!

i don't think anyone's uploaded them yet, so i went and uploaded all the voiced banters from the octopath 5th anniversary live stage performance!

the CC subs in the videos are straight from the in-game localization, so some dialogue doesn't exactly match with what the actors are saying. i might try to add a more literal translation sometime but it will. take me time

anyway, link here! the list of banters included is below
