its either completely inane or some Story of Your Life by Ted Chang shit, no in-between
For my high school Iād only consider 1 trans ally. There was somebody who was transitioning aswell secretly but sadly they were a bad person.
the thing i really distinctly remember about this one was that it had the fucking. Illuminati from Enemy Within
shit now iām really fixating on like. the fact that in the future sight dream the problem wasnāt that nobody believed i had future sight. itās that unlike every other future seer, the things i was seeing werenāt considered important
like there was a library where all the people who could see the future wrote down what was going to happen, to ensure minimal paradoxes, and I was feeling overwhelmed by the fact that all I had to offer was. well, the experience of the 231st century. trans autistic kids who had good childhoods, trans autistic kids who werenāt traumatised. a vision that was not considered of value
i tried my best to coerce linguistic information, anything that would be of use, and i couldnāt. all i could find was someone like me being happy.
okay fine subconscious this fuckign rules iāll write it as a proper story tomorrow
huh
yeah.
i think Iāve heard this one
you have? i mean like yeah the idea of seeing the future is common but i think this sfpeciifc story is not something iāve seen before
(it was a joking reference to cassandra, the prophet cursed to never be believed)
oh, right! yeah, i know of cassandra, what was interesting is that what i was saying was being believed, it was just believed to be pointless
just like me frfr
the cursed by apollo because you betrayed his trust part or
incase youāre concerned i havenāt heard that specific part anywhere but iām not an avid consumer of fortune teller stories
did you say savant instead of fortune teller because theyāre both botc roles
ā¦i donāt wanna talk about it.
i rewatched the mask (1994). it was fine. the start really hooked me, i didnt realize / appreciate as a kid how good the character building is for the protagonist. they do a very good job of portraying him as a loser, its like very easy to digest. towards the middle and later part i starting losing interest, the characters started acting so chaotic that i didnt know whats happening anymore. the dog was good, the blonde love interest was great looking, jim carrey was great, the mask character is good. the other characters entirely forgettable. not bad. 6/10
i like the tommy gun scene
