    I have a lot of transage headcanons posted in my comment on this thread:

    https://rqd2.net/post/44061

    Plus others if you browse my profile. Recently Gabby from MLP as trace.

    But yeah what came to mind immediately when seeing this post is Fluttershy as transage OTY. I just think it’s cute. Actually I hc a few MLPs as transage but Fluttershy especially. She still a tall filly let’s be real. And I like to imagine Rainbow Dash is protective of her.

    Our necroness is related to our suicidality and special interest in suicide. More interested we got in suicide, gradually discovered the appeal of necro. We especially like the transition between left and dead, that in between zone, shortly before death and shortly after. It feels peaceful and important

    Contrapoints talks about CWC in her video on cringe which is overall great video

    Content warning edit: rewatching this video and it contains pedo contempt, ableism, as well as other things I’m not aligned with. Well constructed with good points and introspection but needs criticizing. Proceed at your own risk

    I also find Contrapoints’ conclusion at the end of the video to be limited and misleading. Her framing of self-love betrays a lack of understanding of what the experience is like. Self love is not merely claiming to have qualities valued by others (society), such as, “I’m a genius. I’m a supermodel.” In my experience it is seeing the qualities in yourself that you enjoy and trusting that enjoyment, seeing the qualities in yourself you feel are difficult and responding with patience and compassionate curiosity.

    This can result in seeming more confident to others, and even using more uplifting language to describe yourself to others (can be interpreted as “cringe” bragging by people who envy having the “audacity” and/or don’t understand where the confidence comes from and respond with distrust). For example after experiencing more self-love, I’m more likely acknowledge my insightfulness others. I am afraid of being seen as overconfident and being proven “wrong” but due to my experience with self-love this fear is less than it has been in the past. I have some security that even if there are times others don’t see me as I see myself, my love for myself remains important and the compassion in myself will try to help me through difficulty.

    Also self-love I think is particularly important to autistic folks because we are all so different neurobiologically speaking and are pressured into distrusting ourselves. Which is not to say we should be expected to be independent and not care how others think. External validation is also important as it can teach methods of self love and inspire confidence.
