YES YES THEY ARE

Omg I saw this on YouTube an now I see it on Tumblr

The Faemacist

A while back my pharmacist saw my deadname on my profile and accidentially called it out, he corrected and deleted my deadname from the system so only my preferred name shows up now. There was a crowd of people behind me, so as he hands over the pills he apologized, in equal tone and volume as when he called my deadname and lied saying it's been a long day and he didn't mean to call out -his own- name. I quietly told him it was fine and he didn't need to do that for my sake.

His response: "No, it's my name now."

I went to the pharmacist yesterday, his nametag is my deadname. He informed me he's immigrating and in the process he's changed his first name to my deadname to have an English sounding name. That's why he's now able to get a reprint of his nametag to be my deadname. And repeated, with the intense seriousness of someone who is going to die on this hill: "It's mine now. Not yours. I'm taking." His tone indicated that decision is final.

Bro literally deadnamed me once, and has committed to flat out stealing my deadname. It's his now. Legally. Officially. I over heard his co-workers call him by the name.

I have an idea for how to have battle Mechs in a realistic sci-fi setting!!!

They are ceremonial

Since Mechs are really cool but kinda impractical....have that been the point. "we are so powerful that we can go out of our way to make war machines that are slightly worse but way cooler and still win" it's intimidating and inspiring to see giant walking humanoid robots on the battlefield, but mostly they are used for propaganda rather than actual combat....

Bring them in once the day is already almost won to Finnish up the battle and claim that the Mechs were the thing that brought final victory. Then have your photo shoot and make lots of posters for all your citizens to look at and go "wow that's so cool. I sure am glad my tax money is being wasted on this instead of going to something practical or beneficial to society"

being on the aro spectrum would be a lot easier if being single wasn't made to feel like a literal death sentence
