reblog to tell your mutual you’re proud of them and it’ll all work out
When I first received this zine in the mail I was a little turned off. It made me think back to the pamphlets and fliers that people tried to hand me on my college campus in hopes of “converting” students trying to get to class. But boy was I wrong (talk about judging a book by its cover)!!! Anyway, the author, D (Who wishes to remain anonymous), kicks things off by sharing some of his thoughts on his childhood and growing up in a conservative evangelical community. In fact, he mentioned how this zine started as a letter to his parents but now coniders it to be a letter to every church and church leader he’s encountered in his lifetime. According to the D, he often felt like questioning religion was dangerous and ungodly. Although he was taught to “love thy neighbor” he often questioned why this didn't include queer people, people with children out of wedlock, working women, and more. How come were taught to love unconditionally but no one actually practices it?
The intro is one of my favorite parts of this zine. The zinester brings up the common saying “God is Love”. Something that you’ll hear church members say fairly often. Then the writer invites us to close our eyes and imagine. What would it be like to live in a world where “they know we’re Christians by our love.” You walk into a room, talk to the people inside, and without a doubt they know you're a Christian by your love. What did you say to them? He then asks us to think: Who counts as they? What groups will know your Christian by your love? And what groups won’t? Finally, he asks the reader, “Whom have you pretended doesn't count as they to make the whole love thing easier? I love this whole concept. I often see so-called Christians making up excuses to make their hatred go down easier but for trans people like me and others from marginalized groups, that can be a hard pill to swallow.
One of my favorite pages was the Scripture page. It lists 3 different scriptures (Mark 12:31, Isaiah 1:17, and Galatians 3:28) and at the top states, “What would it look like if your political beliefs were informed by these scriptures?”. It’s so common to see bigoted people using the bible to explain away their wrong-doings but when it really comes down to it there are a lot of “Christians” that seem to know nothing about the bible and what it preaches and this page encompasses that.
Overall this zine was a great read. If you're in the process of, or just starting to, unpack your religious upbringing then this book is just for you. It’s fairly long so it was impossible to mention everything that was discussed so I highly suggest tracking down one for yourself. DM me if your interested in the digital verison of this zine! (PS This zine pairs wonderfully with a hot drink while listening to Preachers Daughter by Ethel Cain)
mutuals lets do this
I never feel more 'are ya winnin', son???' than when I need to do literally anything on instagram other than post photos, so if you'd like to see my sad attempt at a probably already played-out meme, the reel version of this is over there. XD But I liked the snoot view of Krypto, so here we go!
henloo ‼️ how has everything been lately? i hope you're alright and having a nice day/night <3
can i make a request for Ryusui, Sai, Ukyo and Tsukasa with a dyslexic s/o reader? nothing too fancy, just them being comforting because it is actually a very frustrating condition most of the time, haha
that would be it, tysm 🫶
hi anon (you’re now 🐳 anon)! I tried my best because I’m not that familiar with what people with dyslexia go through so if anything so insensitive or offensive I’m sorry and please let me know🙏 I hope you like it💗
Ryusui, Sai, Ukyo, & Tsukasa with a dyslexic s/o🫶
Ryusui:
I don’t see Ryusui really noticing at first lol. If anyone were to ask him if you have dyslexia he’d probably just shrug and be all like “idk but who cares?”
When he sees the red on your face when he points out you’re sentence is missing some words he feels so bad
“Love I didn’t mean to offend you! I’m so sorry I just want you to make a good grade that’s all!”
“I know Ryusui… it’s just so hard dealing with this…”
“With what?”
“Ryusui you know I’m dyslexic right? Ryusui?”
Immediately goes to Senku💀
He wants to know how he can help you
If you want a professional to help with your words and/or writing than bet Ryusui will have like 10 of the best at your doorstep in 10 minutes
If you just wanted some encouragement than Ryusui’s got plenty of it!
“Hey love it’s alright. Take your time I’ll be here to listen.”
He’s always here for you to vent and to listen no matter what
Sai:
Sai is more likely to catch on, but doesn’t want to say anything because he’s worried he’ll offend you if he’s wrong
He does bring it up though when he sees you having a hard time reading a menu at a restaurant
“Darling do you want me to read it for you?”
With a blush you nod, that’s all he needs to know
He has no problem helping you
He makes sure that if you spelt something wrong or need help reading something to whisper it so you’re not embarrassed
If you ever get frustrated he’s definitely someone to go to. He’s not good with words but while hold you and let you vent
Ukyo:
He heard you mumbling to yourself when he found out
“Damn this stupid dyslexia…”
He never brought it up to you but definitely helped a lot
When he talks to you he always waits with a smile for your response
“Sorry Ukyo, it just takes some time for me to find my words…”
“Hey don’t ever be sorry! Take all the time you need.”
If you ever misspell something he’ll either whisper it to tell you and give you a small sign like gently tapping your shoulder or motioning his head towards the word
He wants to help you in anyway you can, so if you wanna read to him to help yourself then he’s gonna listen
If you wanna write him little notes he’ll read them and identify any changes if needed
“Take deep breaths baby, we’ll get through this together!”
Tsukasa:
He found out when you went to one of his matches
You help a sign that read I love you Tuskasa!!
He didn’t say anything to you after the match, but Mirai did 😀 kids are so bold I swear
“Big sis that’s not how you spell Tsukasa’s name!”
Your face immediately reddens as you look at the sign again. You didn’t recognize it at first but after slowly reading it you found the issue
“O-oh…my bad. I didn’t mean to-“
“It’s alright princess. No harm done, in fact I love the sign.”
After that Tsukasa asked you about it and told you Mirai didn’t mean any harm in what she said
“It’s alright my prince, I’m just embarrassed. The whole arena saw that stupid sign.”
“Hey I told you I love it so don’t talk bad about it!”
His next match it was hanging on his side of the ring❤️
He’ll help you in anyway he can
He also talks to Mirai so she understands of course she gives you a big hug and apologizes
God forbid someone else gives you crap for it cause he’ll knock them straight out without hesitation
Random dude: “you spelt this wrong. What’re you a kindergartn-“
Tsukasa smacks the shit outta him know he’s knocked out
“Come on y/n let’s go.”
No one messes with his girl
Y/N : I can hold the whole world in my hands.
Damian : That's impossible.
*Y/N cups his cheeks*
Damian *blushing* : I have a reputation to maintain.
