How Did I Even Get Here? @bunnilena - Tumblr Blog

The story of Icarus always spoke to me deeply as a Black boy who grew up trying to find his wings. Mixed with the African Folklore I grew up with I found something magic. We launch on Kickstarter in just 13 Days, follow our page on Kickstarter and help us take Flight 🪽💫

A coming of age story about Black kids who finally have power to fight back against systems designed against them.

I think over the years I’ve realized that assuming people you don’t understand are stupid by default is just like a mental shortcut to avoid having to think about why people act the way that they do.

I’ve kind of gotten tired of people doing that I guess. I used to do it, so I get it, but I’ve also figured out that you can learn a lot if you don’t assume by default that people are stupid. Almost everyone is fairly intelligent in some form or another, actually.

My family is full of mostly nice and empathetic people and they raised me to be kind and even they I think kind of raised me with the idea that we’re the smart ones and some people are just stupid

But over the years I’ve slowly decided to try to understand people better instead just assuming that they’re stupid.

And some people are idiots. But they’re rarely stupid.

It takes work though to think like this. Like I said, I understand the impulse to just assume that people are stupid. It’s easy. It involves a lot less research and connecting the dots and listening to people who annoy you or even people who actively dislike you.

It’s possible I have too much of an open mind sometimes but idk maybe broadening your understanding of the world and having a bit of compassion for people that you dislike is also very worth it.

A friend of mine basically lives under a rock and just learned about the existence of AI girlfriends and his first instinct was to assume that people who use these services are just stupid.

But it’s like. No I don’t think that they are. I think that they’re lonely and most of them are fully self aware about what they’re doing. And even if they’re not, the bad guys here are the companies profiting off of their loneliness and stealing their data. Not someone that’s so starved for human connection that they become attached to a chatbot.

And maybe pointing that out makes me a stick in the mud but I feel like I’d rather be a stick in the mud than just dismiss other peoples perspectives immediately.

Watching this scene hurt more than any other scene from any movie I had ever seen, and the more I dug into why the more I realized I was a woman. The sound of her screaming “I’M REAL” was the sound of my egg cracking. Watching this and the rest of the matrix series and I Saw the TV Glow within a couple months was an interesting time for me.

Hi, The Creature Codex here. Gigi.

I've been running this blog for over ten years now. Over that time, I've made 1999 monsters for Pathfinder RPG, all available for free on tumblr. Monster 2000 posts very soon. I'm not planning on quitting anytime soon; I've got some new ideas that'll really make 'em scream.

I am also a trans woman. Who was forced to quit her last job over being bullied by students in the classroom and the administration's insufficient response. I have gotten all of one job interview in the whole time I've been looking for work, and I didn't get that job. Although I have launched a Patreon, and I'm very proud of how active it is... it's only a fraction of my rent. And my savings are dwindling as costs are rising.

If you like the monsters I've written. If you've reblogged my posts. If you've stumbled on this site through a Google search because apparently I'm considered an expert on obscure monsters now. Please, I could use the help. My paypal is here and my Patreon is here.

Thank you.

(WIP WIP WIP) but I just wanted to say I'm glad ppl seem to take a liking to Hitch's cane paws. they aren't there for show but rather to give him extra support and help him go through rough terrain thanks to the materials it's made from. he got it designed from a friend of his.

personally I want mobility aids to be a lil personalized too in some aspects, I think they can really bring out a person's personality along with ease the social shame of having an aid due to societal ableism. it's something that held me back from getting a cane myself but I might cave in soon cuz my bad knee gives me awful flare ups. enough Abt myself but I just want disabled characters to feel, idk, cared for. cries.

If you’re willing to accept that cis/trans, perisex/intersex, white/racialized, and such are useful terms. Then why do you refuse to do so for tma/tme. Well, I know why, but I want to hear you admit it’s because you don’t actually think trans women are oppressed.
