you can't say "hey has anyone noticed that M/M fic outnumbers F/F like 100:1” or “it feels racist that only 3/202 characters on the ao3 top 100 ships list are Black and two of them are Alastor HazbinHotel” bc some ppl will start going like “oh so you think we should FORCE people to write about things they DON’T CARE ABOUT for WOKE????” and you’ll be like “no, i’m pointing out that the conditions that created this disparity are informed by racism & misogyny” and ppl will say “it’s not BIGOTED to only care about WHITE MEN” and then the gargoyle king appears

Monster Hunter sword and shield is like you can't hit me. You will never hit me. I am shmoovin. I'm flowing like water. I'm a hummingbird. Blocked. You have been parried. You have always been parried. I'm eighteen steps ahead of myself. It was always going to end this way.

Is it rude to smoke weed at a concert (in the crowd during the show)

Yes

No

OK, I voted yes it's rude, but also this person is also the drama. You can move and honestly it is nowhere near as ubiquitous as cigarette smoke.

I have never gotten a second hand high, and I'm cheap enough to have tried.

I’m allergic, I’ve had to leave shows before because of this ish.

An ancient Roman soothsayer would be frothing at the mouth at this.

Hat tip @msilverstar isn’t this amazing… a little on the nose as an omen though!

Put the light out. | Turn the light on.

I started this painting about this time last year, finished it a couple months ago, and then promptly forgot to post it. WHOOPS.

Anyway. Awhile ago I was hit by the similar but opposing natures of fire towers and lighthouses, and I wanted to explore that more. Both lonely, out of the way stations worked in isolation in sometimes extreme conditions, both tasked with protecting large swathes of people they will never meet or probably even see. Yet one is about spotting light in the distance and putting it out, while the other is about turning on the light within and shining it out.

I'm doing a special run of prints of this illustration on high quality poster canvas paper, at multiple sizes and starting at just $10usd, to help with the fact that I've been caught in the government hiring freeze, so I'm not sure when I'll be back to work at my day job at this point.

You can pre-order a print here.

Absolutely nothing beats Valentine's parenting strategy of "this is my good son who I keep in the house and my evil son who I keep in the shed. They're both named Jonathan"

Some rando: You should think about stopping your prescription

Me: My pills make me not want to die tho

They: You shouldn’t want to die, that’s not normal

Me: Yeah that’s why I’m taking my pills

teaboot

Again: But you aren’t the *real* you when you’re on your pills

Me: I’m the alive version of me

They: “But you might be on pills the rest of your life!”

Me: “So?”

illnessisnteasy

Good! That means that I have a “rest of” my life to continue living!

Thanks to the pills.

Meanwhile, no person ever: “You should think about giving up your insulin/antiretrovirals/beta blockers/anti-rejection drugs/prosthetic legs/daily multivitamin, because using those your whole life is bad for some reason”

Oh no, they do that too.

I have a kidney transplant. A woman once told me she didn’t believe in organ transplants and that people should just die when they’re meant to.

Sounds like a great set-up for a murder

People who are fully healthy, fit and neurotypical seem to think they are that way because they’re doing something right that the rest of us haven’t thought of, and not just because they got lucky

Speaking of the luck of the non-disabled…I once terrorized a Karen who was using me to teach her entitled kid that disabled people are Other and should not be treated with respect. I told her (truthfully) that until I was twenty-eight, I wasn’t visibly disabled. Then a defective chromosome that I hadn’t known about kicked in. So my luck ran out. But until then, I had been normal–just…like…her.

The sheer terror on her face as the concept of “You mean I’ve just been lucky so far?” seeped into her brain was a thing of beauty.

“You are one stroke of bad luck, common viral illness, or traumatic event away from being just like me” is honestly the most terrifying thing you can tell an abled person - and you should. I was healthy and fit and doing everything ‘right’ too - right up until some inner switch flipped and my body crumbled right out from under me.
