ENBY LINK! ENBY LINK! ENBY LINK!

This gels real nicely with something I noticed about the Kokiri whom Link was raised alongside.

The Kokiri seem to have a gendered dress code. Boys like Mido, the shopkeep, and the Know-It-All Brothers wear pointy hats, shirts (or a tank in Mido's case), shorts, and green shoes; girls like Fado and Generic Kokiri Girl, on the other hand, wear headbands, long-skirted sleeveless tunics, and tall brown boots. Now take a look at Link:

Link's outfit mixes and matches elements from both "uniforms": a Kokiri boy's hat and sleeves with a Kokiri girl's long tunic and tall brown boots. A big theme in Ocarina of Time is that Link is a bridge between multiple pairs of different "worlds" without truly belonging to any of them: Kokiri and Hylian, child and adult, hero and victim. Bridging the masculine and feminine without being either fits right in with all this.

So I work at a library and about a month ago I helped a little old woman who is legally blind figure out how to listen to our audiobooks on her tablet. We got to chatting and I mentioned that I always listen to audiobooks while I knit, which made her very excited and she told me all about the afghans she used to make when she could still see. She was so sweet and I was so glad to be able to help her figure out a way to still enjoy books without being able to read.

Yesterday I answered the phone at work and when I said my name the woman on the other line got so excited and said “Madeline?? You’re exactly who I wanted to talk to! This is Marie, you helped me about a month ago. How late are you working today?” It was her!! And about an hour later she and her husband showed up, and she was carrying a huge stack of old knitting patterns for me, and her husband brought in a few boxes full of yarn. They couldn’t stay long but I was so touched that she remembered me, and I struggled to not just flat out start crying when she handed me the patterns. When I looked through them later I realized it was her entire personal collection from over the years, including all her personal notes and drawings and even some photographs of her finished pieces. No one in my family knits, and to have someone pass on their legacy to me like that was incredibly moving.

This isn’t what I usually post here, but with life being especially dark lately I wanted to share a moment of happiness and a reminder that a bit of kindness goes a long way ♡

did-you-know

Scientists invented fabric that makes electricity from motion and sunlight. To create the fabric, researchers at Georgia Tech wove together solar cell fibers with materials that generate power from movement. It could be used in “tents, curtains, or wearable garments,” meaning we’d virtually never be without power. Source

Y'all are fucking idiots. Clean energy will NEVER be enough to replace the energy we have now. We’d have to tear down DOZENS of forests just to fit enough windmills and solar panels to get even a QUARTER (probably less, tbh) of the energy we can produce now.

deniedmysign

Yeah, sure, when they’ve already calculated that a few square miles of panels in the empty ass Arizona desert could power the whole nation. But ok, fracking and the diminishing petroleum supply is worlds better.

inushiek

Nevermind that windmills are often most efficient off the coast. There they take up no land, impact no trees, don’t pollute the water, and are conveniently located where winds are often strongest anyway.

And solar panels can literally be built into roofs of buildings and in empty areas like deserts. The sun strikes the Earth with the same amount of energy in an hour that our civilization uses in a year.

But yeah, it would be impossible for us to ever have enough energy from clean sources.

Durr hurr technology is bad and I would rather light shit on fire than have clean energy

mllemusketeer

I can also testify to the Arizona desert being empty ass. And the California desert. And the Nevada desert.

greaseonmymouth

also…no forests were cleared to make space for Denmark’s windmills and yet they regularly produce so much power that it covers almost all of the country’s power needs. Oh, and then there’s the times when the windmills generate 140% of Denmark’s power needs. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2015/jul/10/denmark-wind-windfarm-power-exceed-electricity-demand

Friendly reminder that oil pipelines are a scam.

blackwoolncrown

The fact that anyone can believe a limited amount of dinosaur oil is more plentiful and efficient than moving air or fucking sunlight is proof that entire populations can be completely brainwashed.

mckitterick

And don’t forget wave and geothermal power.

The best place to install solar? Parking lots! Here’s the Community Mercantile in LFK:

Not only can it supply almost all the power needed for stores that build these, it also reduces ambient heating from the roasting pavement and keeps cars covered from the elements.

Everyone wins!

solarpunkcast

The ways we can produce sustainable, renewable energy grow by the year. There is zero reason to keep maintaining oil and natural gas industries!

thepunkprophet

The only reason we still use fossil fuels is that rich people are selfish.

So obviously not done, but jesus, I live for how this came out. I did a draft since LAST YEAR thinking of a unique, simple, creative and cute design for a tattoo without just using the Avicii symbol only. I wanted the symbol only sure, but fuck, I'm an artist. I should at least put a bit more effort into a tattoo of all things. So after a heartbreaking experience searching for help with that, I got absolutely no help whatsoever. It was so bad that I literally didn't actively think about it for a while since I couldn't get past my initial drafts. They were okay, but not... right. So suddenly, today I'm freaking sitting here, going through my sketchbook and find the drafts, yeah? So I just got slapped with a voice like, "grab your pencil bitch. Look up flower language. Let's get this bread." Boom. Bam. Here we are. Like I said, obviously not done probs will do some tweaking in the inking phase, but yeah. This a was an emotional trip over a tattoo.

me wearing a dog collar and leash looking up at my manfriend in his trench coat and fedora: let’s go out in public where you can walk me like i’m a dog in front of people who are visibly uncomfortable

thecybersmith

IT’S NOT A FL*PPING FEDORA, IT’S A BOWLER HAT!!!!!!!

an-average-sized-person

Keeo goobin’ goober. A fedora is a fedora is a fedora.

thecybersmith

Anyway, with regards to the original post, what would actually be wrong with that? There’s no mention of public nudity, nor of treating the human pet in a way that would be considered strange for a dog.

Should people be obliged to modify their behaviour so that the irrationally prejudicial do not experience discomfort?

an-average-sized-person

“Irrationally prejudiced” motherfucker admit you have a petplay fetish. there’s no shame in it on this website.

thecybersmith

Okay… just please consider the following scenario. It’s five to ten years from now. You’re sitting in a restaurant, enjoying a lovely meal, when I walk in, accompanied by my wife, my children, and my human pet (whose genitals are covered as it enters on all fours and is wearing underpants). If my family and I then make an order of our own at the table next to you, in what way have we infringed upon your freedom? What rational basis do you have to demand that we leave or beloved pet at home? H*ck it all, let’s consider a more extreme scenario. It’s five to ten years from now. You’re sitting in a restaurant, enjoying a lovely meal, when I walk in, without my wife and children (for whatever reason, they haven’t accompanied me), with my surgically modified human pet (wearing a collar) being lead in by it’s leash. My pet has been spayed/neutered (though you can’t tell because its genitals -along with its boobies if its a female- have been covered up), it has no vocal chords, and it walks on all fours not by choice, but because its toes have been removed, along with the tendons in its ankles being severed (it may also have had its thumbs and the last two segments of each finger amputated, making it easier to care for -no fingernails to trim-). Perhaps I’ve even (humanely) removed its eyes, making it less independent. Even in this scenario, I haven’t infringed upon your liberties. “Irrationally prejudiced” is precisely what you are.
