to me, correctly using 5+ commas in a single sentence is like perfectly executing a combo in a fighting game. to me.
if you think a sentence needs 5+ commas it should be two sentences
itâs not about what the sentence needs, iâm afraid, nor is it about economy, clarity, or style. itâs about winning, little-theatre-fairy.

What the fuck is that
can u be nice
currently reading modelland which is tyra banks' YA novel from 2011. this book is so strikingly weird in its visuals. it feels like shaun tan's the arrival and the uglies series had a baby and the baby was bad but there was something fascinating about the baby that made you want to read it. it is also very hard to follow because it feels like it was dictated. i do think tyra actually wrote it instead of having some ghostwriter editor do it because no one else would write like this and it's genuinely magnetic. i keep doing other things and then going god i can't wait to go back to reading modelland.
what the fuck is going on with the smizes. they're like... spontaneously generated orbs that are released into the dystopia's water so it like incentivizes everyone to waste water and swim in sewage for the chance to have one because it bestows a magic power that means you can become a famous fashion model. and then when you find a smize it like expands like a ponyo spell in your hands and turns into glasses that make you beautiful??
another wrinkle is that the world of modelland has nations. one of them is france, but the first guy from that nation who we meet is a homunculus with a giant human hand for a head. he's the only one like that so far so i don't know. another nation has ONLY people with albinism, which is really confusing because they explicitly point out that their whole nation-state has a ton of life-threatening health complications because of it
unfortunately i have a lot further to go before i know all the secrets of modelland
No, we never know when ManAttack will happen.
fun phenomenon
been sitting on a lot of zexal art tbh sorry about that guys
windowshopping on 42lolita is not good for me
SVSSS and the Onion headlines!
One of the most fucked up parts of Americaâs for-profit medical system and insurance often being tied to your work is that you cannot work if you are sick and if you are not working, you have no insurance. People are fired in the middle of cancer treatment or a severe mental health episode and suddenly there is no way to pay the hospital and buy the medicine you need. Republicans will outright say âYou donât deserve free healthcare if youâre lazy and unemployed.â anytime someone mentions this, actively ignoring the fact that you often cannot work when you are sick and shouldnât be forced to work when youâre sick to be able to afford to get better.
Day 3 + 5: I missed fashion week..... but I am here now!!! I want to draw Binghe in pin-up poses!!!!
Old Bingqiu doodle! Throwback to back when Velinxi gifted us an oficial fluffy haired binghe đ„čđ
Something is wrong / you people canât do anything
Seeing people in the tags relate to this, my heart breaks because there really is nowhere for those of us who struggle with these things.
We get jobs and our mental health gets worse and people still just suggest more work. I was still broke when I had a job, I was even more mentally unstable, my living space suffered because work takes every last ounce of life out of people like me.
If you struggle creating value for shareholders while also staying alive there is no empathy for you.

It was in response to this climate [feminist hostility to trans women] I wrote the piece âThe Transfeminist Manifesto,â which was later published in the anthology Catching a Wave: Reclaiming Feminism for the 21st Century edited by Rory Dicker and Alison Piepmeier. The manifesto addressed various feminist concerns, such as reproductive choice and health and violence against women, and discussed how transsexual women share many of the concerns of other women. I wanted to write a feminist theory that counter the argument that transsexual women were so different from all other women that there is no place for transsexual women within feminism (or that feminism has no use for transsexual women). I wanted to provide easy-to-repeat arguments that pro-trans feminists can use to confront blatant bigotry and falsehoods against transsexual women. And to these ends, I think âManifestoâ was successful. But there was something unsettling about the âManifesto.â In an effort to forge an alliance between transsexual and non-transsexual women, the piece neglected the struggles of transsexual men and other transgender or genderqueer people who do not identify as âwomenâ unless it was convenient to include them. The piece was also weak on intersectional analysisâthat is, how anti-trans sentiments and oppressions compound and complicate oppressions other than sexism, including and especially racism and classism. It borrowed from the work of women of color when it was usefulâfor example, to point out that transsexual womenâs unique experiences should not be the basis for their exclusion because to do so would presuppose a singular universal female experience, which is obviously falseâwithout contributing any insights as to how the inclusion of trans sensibility helps to fight racism and other oppressions. The fact is, I had only been living in my new home town for three months or so when I wrote this piece, and I was not fully in touch with my own discomfort with the white feminism that filled nine out of ten weeks of the Introduction to Womenâs Studies, nor did I feel confident enough to challenge the view that feminism is simply about advocating for women and fighting sexismâand nothing more. In short, what I had written was a version of white feminism that was modified just enough to include transsexual women. At the time, I felt that it was the only safe way to write a feminist theory that advanced transsexual womenâs place within feminism. I spent next couple of years meeting more people with a common commitment for justice for all, slowly building the self-confidence it takes to âtransform silence into language and action,â as Audre famously stated.
from Racist Feminism at the National Womenâs Studies Association (2008), attached to the The Transfeminist Manifesto by Emi Koyama.
what's so interesting about this to me is how this is exactly what i've seen people saying about the backlash to the discussion of transandrophobia & transunity.
like people would tear someone apart for saying it but its right there. Emi's Manifesto is far better, even without the initial Postscript, at tackling transfeminism and the question of male privilege and gender essentialism than most "transfeminists" on here and she still thought she didn't do enough in 2001 when it was published (& i agree).
and then seven years later she felt that what she had written was "a version of white feminism modified just enough to include trans women." & that's exactly what so much "transfeminism" right now looks and acts exactly like!!!!!!!!!! its what we have literally been saying
& then the fact that Emi reflected on how much of that was born out of her own lack of self-confidence in feminist spaces, dominated by cis white women, and her fear that anything too transgressive would be seen as opening the doors of feminism to MRAs and she would be blamed for cheapening the work.
earlier in this essay she talked about her experience with a Women's Studies course that unfortunately very much mirrors my own
It was during my second year of college I was first introduced to the writings of Audre in a Womenâs Studies course. Throughout the academic term, students read several articles each week, discussed them in the class, and wrote journal entries that reflect on the weekâs readings. Week after week, most of the assigned materials were those written by white, middle-class, straight (or sometimes âpolitical lesbianâ) women, and I was having difficulty relating to much of what was being discussed. I kept writing in my journal how I didnât relate to the reading, but I did not realize it had anything to do with the selection of the materials. I felt bad about being so ânegativeâ about feminism and feminists.
& i think that for a lot of trans people, particularly trans men&mascs and nonbinary people, this is a very common experience. being unable to relate to feminist courses and discussions which never engage with any of your experiences, and then feeling bad and/or being made to feel bad for being so "negative" about feminism.
idk gang its just wild how the Manifesto and the additions Emi made to it as a historical document still reflect so much of the "discourse" we are seeing right now. i think a lot of folks out there could benefit a lot from reading Emi's work and her bring up how her own experience feeling othered and shut out from "good feminist theory" directly led to her neglecting trans men and nonbinary/genderqueer people "unless it was convenient" out of fear that including those groups would be too alienating to cis women. so much of online "transfeminism" is just thinly veiled attempts to get white cis women's approval.
