Trees are a social construct. This is a fairly broadly understood concept now, right? Like y'all understand now that "tree" is not a taxonomical category, but a social one. Because there is no way to classify what traits are required for a plant to be a "tree" in a way that includes all the plants we call "trees" and excludes all the plants we do not call "trees." "Fish" is another example of this. But this does not mean that trees and fish do not exist.

This is what we mean when we say that "sex is a social construct." And it's disappointing how many people on our side even misunderstand that. Sex being a social construct does not mean it isn't real. It just means that it can't be a biological category, and its a crime to science that it currently is considered to be one. Every biologist who refuses to recognize this and continues to insist that "sex" is a biological category instead of a social one is doing a disservice to science, which becomes very evident when you ask them to define "sex." It quickly falls apart in exactly the same way that "tree" does when you try to biologically define that.

Like, they'll usually say something like "female humans have xx chromosomes, and estrogen-dominated endocrine system, enlarged breasts, a uterus, a vulva, and a vagina. Sounds reasonable, right? Except that there are people who do not meet one or more of those categories who are also definitely female. When someone gets a hysterectomy, do they stop being female? What about if they're born without a uterus but meet all those other categories? This is actually not uncommon. What about people who have xy chromosomes but meet all the other categories? Another thing that is not uncommon, and I am not just talking about trans women, there are a lot of cis women who are born with a y chromosome that is not expressed for various medical reasons. Defining "male" also has the exact same problems.

While sex is very obviously a social construct, as demonstrated above, it is also very obvious that it has very real effects on people's lives. Social constructs are real. The reason we point out that something is one is because social constructs are changeable, they are not immutable physical categories. We, as a culture, decide how to define a social construct, and we can change that definition at any time.

A conversation I don’t think yall are ready for yet is that you can love a character sooooo much and relate to them and see yourself in them but at the end of the day they’re still fake and that’s why someone else’s take on them or headcanon about them isn’t a direct message about you or insult to your identity. If your identity is so wrapped up in a character that you can’t distinguish between reality and fiction, then you are the problem. Not some random person online who interprets the character differently than you.

[gaypiratebrainrot]

this also goes for when you hate a character soooooo much and relate them to every person who hurt you and see everyone you hate in them, at the end of the day they're still fake and someone else's love for them is not a commentary on your trauma

[laerugo]

#i also think we should not be using 'i relate to the character' as a claim to authority on the character #just because you relate does not mean your interpretations are law for the rest of us or even correct or 'more accurate' than anyone else's #it just means you relate full stop lmao.

Okay here there is a very important talk. cw: transphobia

I live in the environment where is being queer person is considered illegal.

Every day of my life I struggle, having no real safety even inside my own house, surrounded by my transphobic family, forced to hide important part of myself so I AM NOT fucking with people who have an AUDACITY to call my feelings wrong and make “responses” with their offensive drawings, misgendering me and complaining about how “sad” they are, because I love Viima and see my own story resembled in him. Juma’s take on identity is very comforting to me personally, and to a lot of queer people I am sure.

EVERYONE GO AND SUPPORT JUMALANPELKO COMIC AND THE CREATOR @sysiheart !!!!!!!

after 4 years of drawing webcomics, this is my wisdom:

start now. now. now now now. or else you'll never draw this damn thing

it's fine if you don't have the entire story figured out yet, it'll happen naturally

draw what you want to draw!! webcomics often run for years, so you better work with something you like

don't overcomplicate things. a simple, efficient work flow is your top priority in order to stay consistent

bullshit some things. trace background refs. reuse poses. draw your character's face from different angles and just copy paste it in to save time. be smart about your work baby

take breaks if needed. webcomic burnout is real

sometimes, a panel or a page looks bad. shit happens. move on

lettering is actually really important and super hard to pull off

it's your comic. do what you want forever!!!

I'm begging you again to work smart, not hard. reuse backgrounds. use brush sets for webcomic artists. trace 3D objects. use 3D models to pose your characters

you may need hours or days to draw one panel, but people will look at it for 5-8 seconds. keep that in mind

a simple background is better than no background at all (avoiding the white void increases the quality of your work by a ton!)

sometimes the anatomy needs to be a little off to make an interesting shot/panel. that's fine, don't worry about it too much

at least 2000px canvas and 300 dpi for good quality results

it's okay to stop by the way. it's okay to move on from a project if you no longer find joy in it
