(he/it/dark) talk to me about alan wakes american nightmare please

CAUSE IVE MADE MORE MISTAKES THAN SIMPLE EMPTY MOMENTS, EACH ONE AS OUT OF CHARACTER AS YOU KNOW I TEND TO BE

THERE'LL BE SCALPERS AT THE CEMETERY GATES, WITH ALL MY WOULD-BE WIDOWS WEEPING

I'D HAVE FORGOTTEN ALL THEIR NAMES, SO WHY SHOULD YOU REMEMBER ME?

the reason why transfem elias is my favourite theory for gwendolyn is because think about the implications.

so let’s say this alternate universe reveals that elias is actually transgender, and would present/identify as female if they had the opportunity to figure themself out and transition (elias was reportedly very young when jonah possessed them)

then the idea that in the tma universe they not only didn’t live long enough to do that, but THEIR BODY WAS TAKEN OVER BY SOMEONE ELSE WHO THEN PRESENTED IN A MASCULINE WAY AND LIVED AS A MAN USING THEIR FACE AND BODY FOR OVER TWENTY YEARS?!? FUCKING TERRIFYING

as a trans person myself, even though the real elias was dead the dysphoria that idea gives me is absolutely unreal, and really creeps into serious body/existential horror territory which i think would be really interesting and very in-character for a writer like jonny to explore.

this is so upsetting, PLEASE rb to spread awareness

PLEASE, PLEASE REBLOG THIS, WHETHER YOURE JEWISH OR NOT.

THIS IS A SUPER IMPORTANT PART OF OUR HISTORY, DONT LET IT GET DESTROYED.

Because I'm only seeing other Jews posting about this, non-Jews I need you to be aware that for the past month or two there has been a wave of bomb threats and swattings at synagogues all across the US. They usually do it when services are being livestreamed. I haven't seen a single non-Jew talking about this. High holidays are coming up in a few weeks, which is when most attacks happen against our communities. We're worried, and we need people to know what's happening to us.

this is awful on its own, but on top of everything else it has lead to cops and other law enforcement swarming synagogues, which is a one way ticket to all jews of color feeling too unsafe to enter. This is a fucking nightmare

Nooot looking forward to how much more security there’s probably going to be for the high hols than the increased amount there usually is. This shit is going to be extra costly for shuls who’s security budgets are already pretty tight.

don't hide this in the tags, it doesn't exist if this is what we're forced to do, esp bc it means most JOC can't freely practice their religion at all
