    1. Today's out of pocket High Guardian Spice critique is: transition magic ruins Snapdragon's because it instantly solves all of her problems without her needing to struggle with her gender. Also pretending Snapdragon isn't trans, somehow? We'll skip this because it's obvious

    What gets me pissed here is that transition magic is mentioned in exactly 2 lines of dialogue. One that explains how it works, and another that lets Snap know it exists. All you have to do is listen to both lines of dialogue to understand it? It's not hard

      The whole point of transition magic is that it DOESN'T just instantly transform you into the gender you want. You have to take magic hormones monthly. It's not immediately straightforward and, like, surprisingly so. It's why I dedicated a whole thing to it

        But I think what's actually happening in this TikTok is that they'd rather people "struggle" with their gender forever than, like, transition and be happy. Snapdragon having an actual solution in transition magic feels "cheap" bc they'd rather her not have one ie not be trans
