Final Fantasy XI
Final Fantasy XI is the eleventh numbered installment in the… Okay, you know what it is, I’m just going to tell you about one of the storylines!
During the Wings of the Goddess expansion, adventurers will be sent back in time to experience the events of the Crystal War, a cataclysmic event that is the foundation for conflicts of the modern-day timeline. Should an adventurer choose to serve the Kingdom of San d’Oria, they will be immersed in the story of the Young Griffons—a group of children who would see themselves knights, many of whom grow into prominent characters later in life.
Among the Young Griffons, the player will find Bistillot, a shy boy who doesn’t like to be seen. With his penchant for engineering, shy demeanor, and lack of combat potential, Bistillot prefers to spend his time inside of an orcish war machine that he was able to repair to working condition.
He is often seen before he is heard, with his signature phrase, “HAAAALLOOOOOOOOO” being used to hail the adventurer. Through the course of the story, Bistillot finds his way, even contributing to the war effort with his engineering skills.
However, when another member of the Young Griffons is kidnapped and taken to the present day, the adventurer must return to the present day and reunite with the Young Griffons’ present selves! The adventurer’s first contact in the present day is Bistillot. When the adventurer hears the signature “HAAAALLOOOOOOO,” Bistillot approaches the player, but what the player sees is… a woman?? She introduces herself as Bostilette, a “friend of Bistillot.”
After the rescue mission, Bostilette comes clean. She is, of course, the very same Bistillot who was a little boy twenty years earlier. She explains that she was very sick as a baby, so her parents gave her a boy’s name so that she would be stronger and survive the illness. Once she overcame the illness, she was comfortable to reclaim her name and gender. Well, that closes the book on that story, except… I’ve decided that’s bullshit!
I have unilaterally decided that Bostilette is trans, the sickness she had was dysphoria, she stayed in the orcish war machine because she was an egg, and I hope you all agree!

It’s ridiculous when cishets get mad at you for suggesting that someone might be an
How dare you push an innocent cishet to question their own gender and potentially find out that they’re not cis. This is oppression.

Dearly missing someone I last spoke to years ago and I can’t tell whether it’s because we had a genuinely meaningful connection or it’s because I’ve been such a loner for most of my life that I form attachments to anyone who’s nice enough to be my friend
Ah fuck, I found it, in Whipping Girl! Here we go:
I have also met some people in the transgender community who feel that identifying outside of the male/female gender binary is superior to, or more enlightened than, identifying within it. Such people often express gender anxiety (binary-phobia?) at people who identify as either female or male.
I’m done, lmao.Yes, Julia, I am certain that A) being non-binary is something people do purely as a “moral high ground” kind of thing, B) that their expressions of negativity toward the gender binary are exactly the fucking same as cisgender people imposing their belief that men should be masculine and women should be feminine on others. I am certain.
Binary-phobia
This is where that weirdass bit about “genderqueer is a privileged identity only accessible to college students with punk rock haircuts” type shit in Nevada comes from, isn’t it?deleted by creator

Finally got around to reading the Gender Accelerationist Manifesto. It’s a very good introductory text, and it’s good the bear site recommends it so heavily, but i mostly had the feeling i was already aware of what was being discussed. The totality wraps up a communist, non-liberal view on intersectionality in a useful way, tho, and i found the statement that the trans experience isn’t transhistorical because our conception of transness specifically exists in a post-colonial framework of gender quite eye-opening.
edit: i spoke too soon, the gender accelerationism intensifies
Owwwwww I hate life. I have no spoons, they areb’t refilling, chronic pain is probably making it worse, going outside for groceries is getting hard. Also I got on sickness benefits and it is only $228. Super over.
