IMPORTANT SITE REMINDERS ARE LISTED AFTER THIS RANT (so please read all of it in order to find the rules >:3)

On this mega I shall take the opportunity to rant about one of my favorite things: the Webnovel UNJUST DEPTHS!

Do you love transgenders?

Do you love communism?

Do you love queer romance?

Do you love killing fascists in a giant fucking mech?

Would a plotline with all of these things happening in a underwater retro-futuristic gundam setting intrigue you?

Especially if its actually really well written with good characters, rich worldbuilding, and a marxist leninist transfem author?

All of the answers should be: YES I DO or else I WILL BAN YOU

Since you obviously love all of those things then Unjust Depths is perfect for YOU yes YOU! It is DESTINY

The Imbrian Ocean is at a time of severe instability. The monarch of the vast Empire that spans its unjust depths (:3) is sick and nearing death, every territory of the ocean now vying to carve their own Destiny out of the chaos. From the Volk fascists pigmask-off , Zionists hamas-base (they literally will not die why are they still here oh my god), The 'Anarchists' (social chauvanists) lenin-dont-laugh in Bosporus, and the monarchs gui-trans of each vast noble domain, each vies for power and prestige no matter who they crush underfoot, but it would be a pretty depressing story without a bright light in the dark.

On the edge of the Empire sits the glorious Union! The (Soviet) Union soviet-chad is a socialist federation of three states (and one anarchist mountain left-unity-4 )that were formerly slave colonies under the Imbrian Empire until they broke away in a fierce liberation war. They have spent the last 20 years since then building themselves up. Whether they be Human bridget-disco , Shimmi kbity-how (Catgirls who usually follow a religion closely related to modern Islam), and Kattaran transshork-happy (a hybrid humanoid species with characteristics of sea life ranging from sharks to cuttlefish)building socialism side by side.

First lead under the revolutionary leader Dashka Kansal, then the Idealist Ahwalia who lead the country to near ruin in pursuit of building a utopia on pillars of sand, then under the scientific socialist three-heads-thinking leadership of the Grand Marshall of the Union, Bhavani Jayanskar (I love Jayanskar so much shes basically as if Stalin, Lenin, and Zhukov were rolled into the same person but was a black lesbian badass who wore the uniform REALLY WELL)(she aint the main character at all tho shes only in very few scenes i just love her so much). Under Jayanskar, the Union has been growing their economy to both eliminate hunger and give everyone a home chad-stalin , but also growing their military capabilities for the inevitable return of the Empire. The Union is alone, but with the people by its side nothing, not even Destiny, can snuff out true freedoms light. specter

As war wages between the Empire and Republic (basically underwater USA) once more over the lands between them, the facade begins to finally crack...

And a border conflict between the Empire and Union escalate, and the dreaded reconquest begins.

Amidst this turmoil, lives our main characters (yes there are multiple and all of them are lovely). Each of whom I personally love dearly, and are very well characterized. Many are soldiers of the Union, some are scientists, some are divers (mech pilots), some are lost strands finding new meaning after joining this band of Brigands

All are Communists steban

All serve the Union USSR

All would gladly give their lives to defending socialism comrade-stoic

but even they would have little inkling of the adventure set in store for them as the lands beneath the waves erupt in fire, fury, and revolt

Can these transgender badasses kick fascist ass?

Can they kiss? (oh my god please kiss ISTG THERE IS SO MUCH SHIPPING AHHHH ITS GLORIOUS)

    He's such a momma's (is there a good informal/cutesy word for an enby parent?) boy, he'll jump up in my lap and purr and nap for hours sometimes. Felix and Rosie like sittin' in my lap sometimes too but Curly's definitely the biggest lil' cuddlebug :3

    He makes an adorable little soft squeaky sound every time he hops down from something too, it's like

    (thwump from landing) "eehm"

      (I need to discover the informal term for enby parents!!)

      Lmao do several of them go in your lap at once, I guess I've seen a few pics of several mice on your lap, amazing.

      Oh my fuckin, why do they squeak upon landing???? Our dog does that too!!!

        Curly, Felix and Rosie will all hop on my lap at the same time when we go out in the backyard, and I think it's part of their morning routine.

        Goggles likes being held on my shoulder and walking around so he has a better vantage point to survey his territory but he's still a bit skittish and doesn't really approach people on his own, but he likes pets and scritches when he's laying down somewhere

            I'm very sleep deprived and they keep me very busy but I love them so much and they've been so good for my mental health meow-hug

            Before they showed up, I used to have a lot of "why even get out of bed if I don't have to" type days and now I'm kinda getting my shit together

        Coming up with good enby terms for relations always feels a little clumsy to me, maybe "pear 🍐" for parent? idk

        My cool aunt tried "niecephew" for me and the thought was sweet but it's a little clunky lol

          I kinda like niecephew though... I have a shocking lack of knowledge of these terms, smh.

            They're all pretty loose and varied based on the people using them from my experience, there aren't really widely standard terms. I feel like there are probably better words in other languages that could just become loanwords but I'm unfamiliar with them

            "datemate" for bf/gf equivalent is kinda cute with the rhyme but is still a little clunky

            I kinda like the Mx prefix in place of Mr/Mrs but nobody outside queer social circles really knows it and would probably give you a blob-no-thoughts look if you said "mix (last name)" irl

            I don't quite feel comfortable going by all feminine pronouns and titles but they're a lot better than masc ones for me and they don't hit normies' ears as awkwardly so I might try them out irl when I'm presenting femmier, idk

            The whole thing smacks of gender

              Never heard datemate myself, pretty funny though. HOWEVER

              and would probably give you a blob-no-thoughts look if you said "mix (last name)" irl

              What happens if I do it anyway madeline-stare

                I'd probably either awkwardly stammer about "uh it's like miss/mister but d-different haha" or throw a smoke grenade and scamper away

        There are types of cats that are hypoallergenic I'm pretty sure, but yeah the litterbox can be rough sometimes lol

        It's cool and odd how they all live in the same house and play in the same yard but all have distinct smell to their fur though, if you smooch the top of their heads, they have different earthy/flowery/grassy/mushroom-y scents to their fur. I'm pretty sensitive too and scooping the box clean be an ordeal but they're very fastidious overall and appreciate you helping them keep clean

          hypoallergenic cats, eh??? omg i gotta look into this, but we do not have a place for the litterbox lol

          all have distinct smell to their fur though, if you smooch the top of their heads, they have different earthy/flowery/grassy/mushroom-y scents to their fur

          wow that is incredible, i love the interesting way things smell (you know, as long as it's not overwhelming), this is so cool to me

          I'm pretty sensitive too and scooping the box clean be an ordeal but they're very fastidious overall and appreciate you helping them keep clean

          yeah, major advantage to cats over dogs. we had dogs growing up and dealing with the poop was so bad for me, i would retch every time. i can smell it from across the street sometimes if a dog has gone nearby
