People are judged by physical traits and I can't get over that
Not in the blackpilled-incel-grr-women-will-never-fuck-me way, I mean, in general, you're truly limited by your physical appearance and physical traits
There is simply nothing you can do to remove those traits from people's perception of you without being in a situation in which they are entirely removed in the first place -- e.g., posting anonymously on the internet
Even on the internet, you can see how people's perception of each other shifts based on what information they have on how they are physically in real life ("oh, that person is probably white," or, "oh, that person is probably a 40 year old man," or, "oh, that person is probably trans")
I've been guilty of this too, but it's kind of insane
how much of a sin it is to simply have a certain body, to have certain genetics, to look a certain way
I even see this in LGBT spaces to an extent
People going for "masc"/"fem" looks and wondering why they don't pull it off
Because you lack the physical traits associated with the look you're going for. that's it. that's what people are judging you by.
Trans people being obsessed with "passing"
again, it's about these arbitrary physical traits associated with the gender you're transitioning to
it's endless
it's literally just how we are as a species
what was that study?
we judge people within 5 seconds of meeting them?
how do you judge a person that quickly without basing it on entirely off of their physical characteristics?
you don't
even things like how they carry themself are arguably physical characteristics and don't tell that much about personality or how they think or what they've done in life
that's all
we're obsessed with looks and aesthetics as a species and that's not changing
it kind of makes me feel a bit unironically transhumanist at times
or even thinking that something like people opting in to an ideal simulation with other people would be kind of a good idea
but until all physical characteristics are choices for people in some way we're always going to have this problem because humans have brains that specialize in pattern recognition
Wearing this on a shirt while all the soldiers at Hoover Dam shuffle past me miserably because their general just got thrown 700 feet onto concrete and popped like a grape on impact
if you're trying to get into the head of your story's antagonist, try writing an "Am I the Asshole" reddit post from their perspective, explaining their problems and their plans for solving them. Let the voice and logic come through.
why would you like media that is good if you can like media that is bad instead and pace around your room like an insane person thinking about What If It Was Good
It’s honestly just disappointing to know that after over 50 years, they finally used this old Star Wars concept art and they just turned it into a scary monster. The original painting isn’t an action or horror scene. Luke isn’t scared. The organism is grazing calmly on fungus and doesn’t even have teeth. It’s sad that they couldn’t let a big alien “spider” just be a gentle baby. Expanded universe lore eventually held that the “spiders” were the immature stage of the *trees* on planet dagobah, which was an awesome concept.
she/her, 19. I don't really post cool shit sorry
