Probably one of the most overlooked hollywood movies on the past decade

The name didn't help and when everyone heard adaptation of a light novel it was probably written off completely

And yet, it's SO fucking good

At least the physical release got the originally intended name Live Die Repeat back
Edge of Tomorrow fucking owns folks. We did not deserve a movie where Tom Cruise dies horribly like 150 times and Emily Blunt does that stretchy thing with her back.

“the president seems to be using the doj to hide his years of involvement with the most notorious child sex trafficking ring in world history” feels like a story worth reporting on

i think when people try to convince themselves not to come to bsky from twitter and point to tumblr screenshots to claim the whole userbase is doing queer discourse 24/7 that its pretty incorrect. people are much snarkier here but also whatever queer discourse happens is simply invisible to me

It also betrays a certain ignorance as to why modern HRT exists in the first place or what it's used for. The modern transition procedure was very much not the intended usecase. It's not actually suspicious that a menopausal woman needs T rofl

They're literally taking T so they can be better at hetero sex after they've outlived their usefulness as mothers and their youth as girls. Like come on

It's a feminist killjoy thing, sure, but you can take note of how them taking cross-sex HRT doesn't at all disrupt their role in the gender caste system. That's crucial

I don't think claiming that the guy taking E to become forever-young or the housewives given T to fuck their husbands better after menopause are SECRETLY TRANS is particularly helpful, and it's certainly not true

so my big takeaway that i haven't seen other people talking about regarding this is: what other documents are Actually Not Redacted?
This is perfect. The DOJ's embarrassing snafu with disappearing redactions was the fault of Elon Musk. Musk cancelled government subscriptions to Adobe programs that would have made the redactions permanent. What a pack of fools.

and even when they don't fw her the fact that such a high profile trans character appeared in fighting games with her creators and company defending her trans gener had a material impact on FGC members being forced to accept the existence of trans girls.

Then too there's the fact that Bridget trans said to the FGC, irl, that women exist and lesbians play fighting games. Lots of trans fg players have cited her as the reason they transitioned or joined fighting games,

bsky.app/profile/kali... and even when you have trans users objecting that the character is incorrigibly stuck in transphobic tropes it's based on a spectacular misreading of the text that unqueer readers debunked in 2007.
www.destructoid.com/weekend-read... the entire popular understanding of Bridget's gender prior to 2022 is so wrong, in fact, that there's documented evidence from 2007 that people who perceived her as a boy found a different text than what most people imagine.

because no one paid *any* attention to the story of Guilty Gear just the vibes. I can basically legitimately say that 150%+ of the complaints about Bridget trans is entirely from people who never heard of Guilty Gear before 2023 and are mad about losing a core of their internet argument kit,

There's no legitimate complaints from anyone who's been following the character for twenty years. There wasn't even anyone who followed the story of Guilty Gear for twenty years. There's people who have placed top 8 in multiple GG tournaments who get basic plot details wrong,

The reason Dimitri Monroe's video has a weirdo non-sequitur chapter on how Daisuke never created Guilty Gear and the real true creator of Bridget is an artist who was signed on for (and then moved on after) the original version of GGX2 in 2002,

The backlash to Bridget trans wasn't, like, really in even the smallest nominal degree about Bridget or losing a character that they had known for more than five minutes. It was about the crumbling of their "but the canon" "but the author's content" line of queer erasure.

yet every single one of them is fully aware that that shitty meme is the foundation of everything they've ever said against queer characters existing, and Daisuke using Bridget to say women are real means that he singlehandedly destroyed everything that undergirds their existential philosophy.

The whole situation with the reactionaries and fascists is funny, there's lots of tells in the sources they use and the description of the past they make that they never even lived here for everyone is gay for Bridget,

I still absolutely refuse to believe that femboy as an oppositional identity to trans girl that's infringed upon and violated by calling astolfo trans/nonbinary, actually ever existed in the history of the world before 2020

Legit having Bridget guilty gear come out as trans was a significant turning point on multiple fronts of the wider nerd culture and since I've seen Bridget deniers repost Andy Ngo and Libs of TikTok I can confirm that the chud backlash has real consequences too
I’m thinking Bridget’s gender ended up being more relevant in online reactionary minds than Kirk’s murder.

Like obviously the latter has been getting far more attention and consequences IRL, but online when I check twitter, fucking crickets whereas bots have been screamin’ ‘bout Bridget for years
