So I calculated pretty much everything I could (as Paypal ain't letting me check how much I need to pay them, nor is Navy Federal showing the checking balance of my closed account). If I want to fully pay off everything (my leases and my credit cards), I'll need like $1500 (~$700 minus the credit)

If someone told me that Flip Flappers was essentially mahou shoujo Otherside Picnic with TRIGGER-tier animation done by the same studio that did SAO Alternative GGO...

I would have watched this months ago

Hot damn what a first episode

I can't believe this is necessary but

Here: An actual timeline of the real history around Bridget being trans in Guilty Gear.

The actual *text* of the games is barebones and says exactly all of the verbatim exact same things that Strive does about her life going into her debut game, and the only comments that touch on her gender talk about her being a trans girl in 2002 if anything.

[Highlight in red: "12-01-02" = untouched since 2002]. 6. TRANSLATIONS

Here I will provide translations from Japanese into English of various
aspects of the game. In-game quotes are translated a bit more loosely than the move names in an effort to make them sound natural. Also, I didn't bother to translate quotes that are just moans/groans/yells/whatever.
I'm a half native-speaker of Japanese so I am reasonably sure of these 
translations, but if you have a different opinion, feel free to contact me. 

General Terms
Ougi: An often-secret, often-powerful technique of a particular school of fighting.
Iai: A style of fighting characterized by rapid sheathing and drawing of a katana from its scabbard. Used in this game by Johnny and Baiken.
[Highlight in red: "I'm a half native-speaker of Japanese" = actual Japanese speaker, bilingual]. [Bridget's GGX2 bio with biological info, likes/dislikes. etc.]
Story: He used to cheerfully obey his parents, but then he realizes that the more he searched for his own happiness, the more he hurt them. He came to the conclusion that he would have to live as a boy and not trouble the village further. At that time, news of the bounty came to him. He became determined to seek out the bounty for himself and the village. The fact that the bounty on Dizzy had already been collected is unknown to him.
[Highlight in red:
1. "He" = opposite of a trans agenda.
2. "his own happiness" "not trouble the village" = Bridget is happier as a girl, but makes herself more miserable as a boy to help her parents and her village.] [October 2022 interview with TBS News Dig. Translated by Sukie Bapswent/@padraicratigan.]
The truth is, some of the characters that appear, I expressly tried to create characters that were a minority in some way, because I wanted to make heroes for those kinds of people. At the time, there was pushback, but now we’re able to be very public about it, and have it greeted happily instead.
Interviewer: What did you think regarding Bridget’s gender at the time she first appeared?
Ishiwatari: At this point in her story, she’s thinking that she doesn’t want to worry the people around her or cause problems. I think that at that point in time, Bridget herself was trying her absolute hardest to not think things like, ‘Maybe I actually am a girl.’
[Highlighted:
1. "she doesn’t want to worry the people around her or cause problems." = Bridget is minimizing herself for the benefit of others.
2. ‘Maybe I actually am a girl.’ = Bridget wants to be a girl.]

$10 or $20 would literally be enough to survive the next 2 days (might not get my unemployment tomorrow due to holiday)

So we got screwed on money this week because of a shift change messing up pay and automatic payments, so we need to be able to make it through to Monday night.

Anything would genuinely help.

The current idea is that Rose is gonna edit what we currently have and then I'll either continue to the original chapter end we planned on or post what we have (as it is also possibly a good chapter ending)

Fun Fact: Kat is the only SPD character to not have the Sentai Counterpart Actor voicing her in the Japanese Dub

Instead is by someone else

this is an explicitely nazi administration and anyone who still supports them should be viewed as such

Incredible.

Jack Posobiec references the earliest version of antifa -- the anti-fascists in the Weimar Republic who were opposed to the Nazi Party -- as the bad guys.
