I don't get the references to corpses and salves..

It's on a horror story sub, so in this story the narrator is literally a zombie trying to pass as a living human.

So he is trans-alive.

And people with Cotard delusion are trans-dead. (It's a form of psychosis in which a person believes they are dead. The psychiatric field still isn't tolerant enough to recognize that their deadness is biologically valid though. What bigots.)

Why doctors are not making transition surgery for them then? They are making surgeries for girls of age of 12-14! Why here not? It is transphobic to not kill people who believe they are dead!!!

yeah I gathered that after... that's an unsettling imagination right there.

Which is a good thing to have if one is a horror writer. I have to go look at the comments (they wouldn't load when I read the story on my phone earlier) because I'm curious what readers make of the trans parallels.
