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)

    Ok imma have to read this, quasi-theory disguised as narrative sounds right up my alley ^^

    i like it, my plan tonight is to get through a bunch of it ALSO NO WORK TOMORROW WOOOOO

    Ugh seriously, nongendered bathrooms with a mirror sink and toilet, is that too much to ask!?

    100%

    yeah I was in that crisis for like 2 or 3 years… I just tried to not think about it until recently…

    oof, that’s a long time. did you ever resolve it?

    the gender superstructure fucking sucks doesnt it… The accelerator talked a little about enforcement through SV, but implicit enforcement is in our language, built into our cultural norms, its everywhere and I hate it.

    i agree, it really is everywhere. its kinda eh, i used to feel affirmed by gendered language, not sure anymore. just get me out of this binary lol

    Havent felt comfy in my height since I started really growing… My mental map of my body is just different than how my body is.

    this is it, but it’s not even just gender. its like a part of my expects me to have more of the shape and height of my mom, it’s not even like sadness, just … well, surprising, when i see myself in the mirror. dysphoric, lol

      NO WORK TOMORROW

      lets-fucking-go

      did you ever resolve it?

      Eh kind of? I slip in and out of resolution, but the idea of identity being performance really helpedr resolve everything for me. Cause I was ripping out every performance, only to find another performance underneath, and sometimes one I thought I had excised already. So it was this horrible black hole of lack-of-self that I couldnt escape.

      i agree, it really is everywhere. its kinda eh, i used to feel affirmed by gendered language, not sure anymore. just get me out of this binary lol

      This one is so weird for me, cause on the one hand I want the binary to be gone, but im also like, idek how to describe my gender but its like adjacent to binary woman, and im comfy, or comfy enough, in binary womanhood. So I feel affirmed by gendered language and kind of love it, but also hate that it exists, all at the same time lea-breakdown

      like a part of my expects me to have more of the shape and height of my mom, it’s not even like sadness, just … well, surprising, when i see myself in the mirror. dysphoric, lol
