OK, so last year @confusedshades wrote me an adorable, lovely, amazing fic of Dick carrying his siblings that then I just had to draw it. And then I think I forgot to share with the class.

[This one is part of my mission to post all the art I forgot to post in the past. Sorry to all the people getting random pings years late. Wish me luck in not double-posting.]

I need someone to do some detective work and uncover whether someone is transphobic or has stood firm while a long time collaborator went off the deep end.

Every work of art says things the creator hasn’t considered, but if you’ve really thought about what you’re trying to say then generally the additional dimensions you didn’t know it had are in alignment with your purpose, whereas if you think you’re making no cultural comment at all you are actually making a LOT of cultural comments, most of which will be unflattering to you

[kuttithevangu]

Porn is one of the most culturally rich types of media imaginable so the answer is: you cannot do this

[rockshitty]

“I don’t want to make anything with cultural dimensions. That’s why I only write within the genre that is legally sequestered away from every other kind of storytelling because of my culture’s attitude towards depictions of sex.”

i love it when his suit is all torn up

[deadchannelradio]

one time. mid teen years. garth had a very rightful rant about the amount of single use plastic products plaguing our oceans and menstrual products are included in that. and dickie g had overshot his testosterone pellets or fallen off his shot schedule and had his period for like the second time in his life and, feeling guilty about his previous pad usage, purchased a menstrual cup. Got it in there. Could Not Get It Back Out. Had to go to donna silent horrified tears dripping down his face walked into her room Shock white and could not talk for like ten minutes she thought somebody had fucking Died.

took AGES to get what had happened out of him but finally he's like. (literally gasping for air between sobs) I put in a diva cup and now I cant get it out First it was just stuck but Now i cant Reach it it's gone It's literally gone. "HOW did you do that theyre designed so that does not happen." I DONT KNOW BUT ITS GONE FOREVER NOW "it is not gone. repeat after me My Vagina Is Not Infinite, My Vagina Has An End Point," Donna I'm going to get toxic shock and DIE. "you are not going to die," Are you laughing at me "i would never" I CAN SEE YOUR FACE STOP ITT STOP I NEED HELP!! she gets him squatting on the toilet and fishes it out and is like yayyyyyyy!! blood all over her hands and hes like THIS. IS NOT A YAY SITUATION.

[deadchannelradio]

and it's gotta be donna like. he's not going to urgent care for that and he absolutely cannot ask anyone else it's got to be donna. garth and wally would pass out. roy is just a no and joey is a different kind of no. kori would do it with love but he is trying so hard to date her and he is not having her first interaction with his vagina being him crying and her pulling a bloody menstrual cup out of him Absolutely not he is not asking his crush to do that. it's a defining moment in dick and donna's friendship she claims it as the moment she knew they were supposed to be siblings. she still brings it up sometimes shes like I would do anything for you remember the time i went spelunking in your vagina "IT IS NOT A CAVEEEE"

The first draft philosophy that has finally gotten me writing for fun isn't "worst version of story" type framing, it's "tell the story to yourself."

Your story isn't ready for polished prose, you don't know what happens yet. This doesn't make it Bad Writing, it's a different type of writing. And this ties into why I think the plotter vs pantser debate misses the mark - both detailed outlines AND make-it-up-as-you-go first drafts are ways to make up the story. This part is for you, so how you do it should be whatever is the most fun or satisfying way to tell yourself the story.
