Status Updates From A Necessary Fiction

Karin if you say "swishy" one more goddamn time

Oh my gd we're rehashing everything AGAIN

If you're this stressed about a single craving for an ice cream cone you have an eating disorder btw

Sorry it seemed like Becky had some kind of horrible news but instead we've been derailed into talking about how Elizabeth got the new job AGAIN.

This book could be 500 pages shorter if Karin stopped rehashing shit we already know

The mother is now rehashing everything we already know to the protagonist and her sister

It's like a 5 page conversation

Constantly describing exactly what your character is wearing is indicative of bad writing btw

After 867 pages I am extremely fucking done with the protagonist's self deprecation

Do people actually fill out comment cards? Because Karin seems to be under the impression everyone does but I literally never have unless I had an awful experience

The fact that the trans girl protagonists are always like subjects of Scientific Study is definitely a kink thing bc it doesn't make any sense

Karin stop saying swishy challenge

I'm gonna be so real man: I do not feel bad for the man who prioritized work over his DYING WIFE to the point that she was dead for TWO DAYS before he noticed.

This whole segment is so transphobic and insulting.

AND THATS THE T SLUR HOLY FUCK KARIN

Idk why Karin is saying salons aren't open Sundays like that's a universal fact

Looked up the "absolutely gorgeous" dress that our protagonist is talking about and yall it's super ugly

Karin is now implying you have to pass as a cis woman before they let you start estrogen which

No????

What could the gender clinic POSSIBLY need a stool sample for? I have never needed to give a stool sample for anything.

I do not like how casually Karin throws around the word dyke actually

Our protagonist is now being a bioessentialist heteronormative weirdo about the concept of clothing.

And that's a transphobic slur

Why is her mother like watching her undress.

They are now gluing breastforms to her body.

DO NOT ASK OUT SERVICE WORKERS WHILE THEYRE WORKING HOLY SHIT KARIN

And calling a penis "an objection to womanhood" is extremely gross and disrespectful to trans women who do not want bottom surgery or don't have bottom dysphoria

Calling breasts "indisputable proof of womanhood" is so fucking gross and disrespectful not only to trans women who don't go on HRT and to trans men that don't get top surgery but also to breast cancer survivors who get mastectomies.

I hope Karin dies.

No one says "kicky" for fucks sake

This is the single worst written coming out scene anyone has ever written what the fuck is happening

Karin you cannot be bringing up hyperspecific niche porn genres

Oh boy time for Karin's Weird Fatphobia
