That’s a relief, I just came back from a big internet detox for my silly little brain health, was super excited to catch up on LB, thought to myself “maybe I should go back and read up from where I left off 🤔” but then I realised it was the ballroom night chapter and I couldn’t wait so I checked out the last page for a little context
*IMMEDIATE PSYCHIC DAMAGE* 🤯 (still can’t believe the blue dress was for TIMOTHY!?!)
Can’t wait to see all my favourite ladies interacting 🥰
Wonderful to see the excellent and dedicated Trans Allies putting more effort and more concern into comforting Babygirl than Blaire, whose dress got ruined and whose hair was set on fire. Shez is looking so cute in that turtleneck though!
I have to admit I feel a bit of dread seeing Blaire next to these GNC women… how many of the others does she have trans headcanons about? 🙁
What was Tim even distracted by? His big fake tits?
“Accident.” Smells like envious sabotage and pulling the male ignorance/incompetence card.
Blaire when a TIM wrecks her stuff and burns her hair: 🕊️🕊️✨✨🏳️⚧️❤️😇😇😇
Blaire when her girlfriend demonstrates less than perfect trans etiquette: 😠😠💢💢👎🚫🌵🌵🌵
I’m really excited at the prospect of Riley standing up for herself, or at least honoring what she really thinks about everything Blaire is pushing on her. (Riley? Acting to make things better? I hope that’s what that means.)
Homegirl deserves to shake her off, ride into the sunset, and look back with no remorse, and hopefully she takes a step towards that this chapter.
Aww look at Blaire she looks so sad.. 🙁
does ari have a crush on violet?? 👀👀
I love how cute amd excited Jaden looks 😭 she’s so happy tosee her friends!!!
Also rip in piss to Timothy lollll imagine trying to sabatoge a woman’s night out with her girlfriend only to end up helping her get a super cute new haircut (and shout out to those ladies who helped fix Blaire’s hair!!!!)
Blaire, wishing the TiM would think of something other than himself for a change?! The very idea!!! At least I got the answer to the effort that went into Blaire’s hairstyle… 😅
You know, this would be one of those times where I would be like ‘Nah, Rusty. Comon’ you exaggerate with Blaire’s simping for TRA stuff’. But then I remember there are videos of women apologizing to their tim assaulters for…saying they assaulted them, and I be like: Nevermind. Proceed.
‘Not making trans-friendly sizes’
Blaire! Come on! The guy is three sizes bigger than you with sex toy boobs!
Unpopular opinion, but I don’t think this is sabotage in the traditional sense. I think this is Timothy’s unconcious pathological need to be a victim meant he screwed up naturally. “Oh I tried to style a Cissy’s hair but I burnt it! If only the Cis-Normative Patriarchy didn’t oppress me into not knowing how to style long hair”
So I genuinely dont think this is malice. Just another symptom of invented victimhood
I get the impression this isn’t the first time that disgusting fetishist has shoved himself into Blaire’s outfits. Something I bet he doesn’t do with the clothing of women he isn’t attracted to, and would a hundred percent still do even if every company made abundant “trans friendly” attire.
I’m actually glad he ruined it because I’d hate for Blaire to be wearing it after he’d been inside it. You KNOW he would get off on that too. As much as TIFs get on my nerves, as much as even HSTs are still misogynistic, there’s nothing to compete with my absolute seething disgust for an AGP.
Especially one like this exploiting the goodwill of the women around him for his own disgusting jollies and getting away with it. Hate. Just hate.
Also “helped her fix it” you mean the actual women fixed it while THE MOID WHO RUINED IT DID NOTHING AND GOT COMFORTED (ugh “other girls”) I also firmly believe his “distraction” wasn’t anything as innocent as mere ineptitude (though that too) but because he was getting off to doing “girl things” with Blaire and touching her hair.
I knew it! I KNEW he did it on purpose to punish Blaire and to try to ruin her night and make it so she can’t go! Blaire even mentioning she wishes tim had asked first is BIG for her, but wow she’s just willfully blind to his abusive behavior. These last couple pages, especially this one where he takes it out on Blaire physically, make me legitimately afraid for her. The only soothing factor is that Rusty wouldn’t do a plotline where a woman is hurt in the unfortunately realistic way that behavior like this can foreshadow (glances at The Daughter of Miriam 😰).
I very much dislike Blaire, she’s a terrible, manipulative girlfriend with disgusting beliefs, but holy hell does this trigger my “we have to save her!!!”. And heck, ALL the QTs! Tim likely wouldn’t be into any of the others because they’re not feminine enough for him (except Elissa), but still. Tuck Blaire under my arm and run away with her.
Riley’s faces throughout this and last page when Blaire tells her what happened are perfect. She knows what he did is messed up and that it’s clearly on purpose, but doubts herself and feels like she can’t say anything because Blaire says it’s fine. I can see this story playing a pivotal role in Riley peaking.
Blaire, please grow a spine, dammit! It’s great how you stand up for your friends, your heart is in the right place most of the time (even if you’re incredibly misguided), but you have to respect yourself more. As does Riley. But hey, I imagine that’s exactly the conflict we’re headed towards!
Very, very curious how that’ll go down. Part of me hopes it explodes in front of the Yonique crew so Riley can be the one with backup for once, since Blaire keeps running to the QTs to get her position validated against Riley.
That said, Riley is right, she looks very cute with that haircut. Not as cute as Riley in her suit though – she cleans up very nicely.
So he destroyed her dress and burnt her hair?? Hate that so much. I really do wish they could just have a good time but alas.. the plot. Especially bc I do still like Blaire and hey she could turn around and wake up, I did after spending my late teens and earliest 20s trying to be a ‘good ally’. I’ve been helping a tif friend figure her shit out and after years of being on T, she is detransitioning and reading radfem literature and waking up. And a lot of it had to do with interacting longterm with tims and maturing and realizing how much of it was a reaction to neglect, abuse, and traditional familial misogny (she started med transitioning the moment she turned 18 and is in her mid 20s now, thankfully never got any surgery). So you know I will hold out hopes for MJ and Blaire and def want someone to helicopter in and evacuate Clancy.
blaireeeee ;-; i feel so bad for her (though her placing the blame on transphobic clothes companies had me rolling my eyes lol). BUT more importantly, jaden’s here and looking cute!!! i enjoyed her suit pun w riley 😀
