Comic #329: Dumb reasons to have kids #1 - Website links: Here! I have had some genuinely stupid reasons for having children leveled at me but this one… hooo… this one my whole family’s existence disproves! I am ending a long line of wanderlust ladies skipping all over the commonwealth & that’s just fine! Let ppl live their own lives🐻🚫👶
ID: a sketchy two page comic of my tortoiseshell kittens, Maggie and Bunny.
From off panel, I hold my hands out to Maggie, who leans away
Me: Aw, Maggie doesn't wanna come up?
Maggie: Mother I am not a child.
Me: You're ten months old.
Maggie: I am a warrior.
Bunny pops up from behind her sister.
Bunny: I'm not! I'm baby <3
I scoop Bunny up while Maggie watches in shock and confusion.
Me: Aw, yes you are, Bunny. Who's my sweet baby?
Maggie flops on her back and shows her tummy. She has big blobby tears in her eyes.
Maggie: Mommy??? Betrayal?? You abandon your baby?? Your Darling Girl?? Your little Maggie-Pie?!?
End ID.
Maggie is a strong, independant kitten, so long as you never pay attention to anyone else, ever.

every iconic gay kiss in xena in all its 90s censorship glory 💋
Ah, the cut-away kiss, the -just-on-the-cheek-reveal kiss, the in-a-man’s-body kiss, the buddy-breathing kiss… all of them classic.
The second kiss though… that deserves a thing of its own. For those unfamiliar with this 2nd season episode, the takeaway is that the beauty pageant is won by a transwoman (played by Karen Dior, a bisexual adult films actor who was a male-identified female impersonator and AIDS activist). So yeah, someone can say “Xena’s really just kissing a dude in a dress” as a handwave, but in-universe Xena is the only one who is aware Artifys is trans and never once does anything except immediately accept her identity. When she kisses Xena, we’re seeing Gabrielle processing the sight of her gal pal getting passionately kissed by another woman… and realising that she, that both of them, are clearly okay with that.
And as the article linked above mentions, Lucy clearly being okay with the kiss despite Karen’s HIV/AIDS status, not just in itself but being filmed and basically distributed around the world? That is a fucking statement a lot of other people wouldn’t have been brave enough to make.
Time to break out the Xena DVDs again, gang
“I know I’ve told this story before, but my abusive ex refused to let me take birth control. I was on the pill until he found them in my purse. I went to the Student Health Center—they were completely unhelpful, choosing to lecture me about the importance of safe sex (recommending condoms) instead of actually listening to my problem. Then I went to Planned Parenthood. The Nurse Practitioner took one look at my fading bruises and stopped the exam. She called in the doctor. The doctor came in and simply asked me: “Are you ready to leave him?” When I denied that I was being abused, she didn’t argue with me. She just asked me what I needed. I said I need a birth control method that my boyfriend couldn’t detect. She recommended a few options and we decided on Depo. When I told her that my boyfriend read my emails and listened to my phone messages and was known to follow me, she suggested to do the Depo injections at off hours when the clinic was normally closed. She made a note in my chart and instructed the front desk never to leave messages for me—instead, she programmed her personal cell phone number into my phone under the name “Nora”. She told me she would call me to schedule my appointments; she wouldn’t leave a message, but I should call her back when I was able to. And that was it. No judgment. No lecture. She walked me to the door and told me to call her day or night if I needed anything. That she lived 5 blocks from campus and would come get me. That I wasn’t alone. That she just wanted me to be safe. I never called her to come to my rescue. But I have no doubt that she would have come if I had called. She kept me on Depo for a year, giving me those monthly injections in secret, helping me prevent a desperately unwanted pregnancy. I cannot thank Planned Parenthood enough for the work they do.”

I know I’ve reblogged this before, but it bears re-reblogging (?). This is how you respond to abuse, this is how you give people control over their bodies/uteruses, this is how you act as a generally non-judgmental and compassionate person. I love this story so fucking much.

And THIS is one of many reasons why we need to safeguard access to birth control.

Comic #293: - To fix or Comfort - Website links: Here! It’s natural to slip into ‘Fix it’ mode! Don’t feel bad if that’s your first inclination. Even a “That’s rough buddy” is a good start to getting your friend out of their funk. Listen to their problems, ask em about it rather than comparing it to a problem you had/have. I’m working on this myself all the time!
Whenever I take a long car ride I end up exhausted afterwards, and I'm always like "why am I so tired? I was just sitting around doing nothing all day."
But the answer, it turns out, is I was doing something. Riding in a car jars your body in many directions and requires constant microadjustments of your muscles just to stay in place and hold your normal posture. Because you're inside the car, inside the situation, it's easy not to notice all the extra work you're doing just to maintain the status quo.
There's all sorts of type of work that we think of as "free" that require spending energy: concentrating, making decisions, managing anxiety, maintaining hypervigilance in an unfriendly environment, dealing with stereotype threat, processing a lot of sensory input, repairing skin cells damaged sun exposure, trying to stay warm in a cold room.
The next time you think you're tired from "nothing", consider instead that you're probably in situation where you're doing a lot of unnoticed extra work just to stay in place.
Remember kids
I don't know who needs to hear this, but if the phrase "self care" doesn't resonate with you, try calling it "system maintenance" and see if that clicks.
