When your command is challenged by an upstart officer who has risen from the ranks
X: "That's an interesting perspective. Perhaps I will think about it."
Y: "Be careful now. I have a cousin at Horse Guards."
X: "Do you see another way to accomplish this task that I do not? Please, present it."
Y: "We'll see what Horse Guards has to say about this!"
X: "I may have an advantage in experience, but new perspectives are always welcomed."
Y: "Horse Guards is well aware of me. And if you were a proper officer, you would know this."
I have made a helpful chart for dealing with the relatively new phenomena of "upstart officers" who, instead of buying their commissions, are risen up from the ranks due to merit or acts of courage. Please consult at your leisure!

see, the trick is, I don't get annoyed to be called an egg, or annoyed at people suggesting I try estrogen, because like...that's a compliment? That's trying to help? lots of people live in fear of their gender and sexuality, in lives that ensnare them, and trans women are on the look out for that

i dont want to be in a fandom that critisizes the choices of fictional characters like they are human beings. i want to see THEORY and ANALYSIS and STORY STRUCTURE and CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT!! I WANT PARALLELS AND MOTIFS AND VISUAL CUES!!! They're not REAL they are TOOLS so stop acting like they are people who made bad choices and should be punished. of course they made bad choices!!! that shit is funny and cool to watch!!

Dodgers have a significant advantage in this situation because unlike ICE, they have the ability to give LAPD officers free Dodgers tickets

In what might be the logical endpoint of American Zionism, the Heritage Foundation has declared that pro-Palestinian activism is not just antisemitic, but is in fact a shadowy global conspiracy … led by Jews. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/18/u...

it's actually really interesting to me that this setup is only a "love triangle" from *machu's perspective* - as per her privileged upbringing and romanticization of adventure. neither nyaan or shuji see it as such: shuji is service (to the red gundam) and nyaan is survival and agency

modern shows make you think space marines are apex predators, but they are actually closer to scavengers (see the tiny, stubby arms) whose primary natural lifecycle was being melted into goo by plasma weaponry

Alas the internet is mad at me again
I said in Faust’s place I’d probably make the same deal (all earthy knowledge+magic powers and a homoerotic reputation with a demon? Hell yeah) and for some reason people are very upset about this

I love that in the Warhammer Fantasy Roleplaying game, it actually has a roleplaying note on being an elf and note how at no point does it say "arrogant" "smug" "condescending" or "rude"
It does say "gesticulate a lot like a fucking nerd"
