The people who police your gender will police your gender even if you're cis.

Eat them.

[libraford]

"OH those body builder women with pancake breasts arent-" eat them.

"This woman has a beard, thats not-" eat them.

"That man has a baby face, that's not" - eat them with barbecue sauce.

Eat them. You will never be gender enough for their definition of gender. Eat them.

Transgender Day of Remembrance 2025, Nik Jovčić-Sas (nikjovcicsas)

Honoured to speak at the beautiful St Michael Within today as we remembered the trans lives lost to violence this year. At least 350 deaths reported globally—though we know the true number is far higher. It was heartbreaking to learn that the youngest trans person to lose their life in the UK this year was just 13. May their memory be eternal.

In the Orthodox Church, the Christian tradition I belong to, on Easter we sing: "Christ has risen from the dead trampling down death by death and upon those in the tombs bestowing life." I pray to Christ: As you bring life and your love upon the tombs, bring it to us here as we remember our trans siblings we have lost. Bring that life and love to every trans person where it is needed. Christ, bring your love to every queer craft club, every poetry night, and every gay bar. Sit with us in every drag queen dressing room, every gender clinic, and every counselor's office. Walk with every trans woman making her way home at night and hold the hand of every trans man laying awake and lonely at 3:00 AM. God, give your protection to every sex worker and to every non-binary person exhausted from explaining who they are to those who refuse to listen. Jesus, bring your love to every trans person living in fear of racist discrimination or deportation and to all who walk under the shadow of occupying forces in the lands you once called home. For as you harrowed hell and went among the tombs, there is no place we cannot find your love. And that in the end, no death, no hate, and no transphobia will ever defeat us. Amen.

it is truly astounding how unembarrassed people are to have less basic curiosity about the world than a rural peasant from the 1400s

someone figured out how to eat tapioca and you won't boil an egg

[mortalityplays]

I don't like the phrase 'learned helplessness' bc I think 90% of what we use it for right now isn't learned helplessness at all, it's learned refusal. Nobody actually thinks they are too stupid and incompetent to try boiling an egg or to click on the second page of google results, they just can't be fucking bothered and have learned all kinds of cargo cult structural inequality talking points to justify it.

Ohhh schools don't teach critical thinking any more ohhh my parents never taught me how to boil water ohhhhhh not everyone is privileged enough to have the time and energy to read two whole wikipedia articles I have no choice but to go through life with the accumulated knowledge of a dead beetle.

Allowing an addict to eat might be the most holy thing my tax dollars have ever done.

the worst part about grief is that it feels like the world should be horrendously earth shatteringly changed, and to an extent it IS but its also the same. to everyone else it's just another tuesday. the world moves on. you have to go grocery shopping.

BENEFITS OF BUYING MY ART FOR YOURSELF OR A FRIEND:

- You’ll have walls decorated in unique collages made by a real human person and not produced by some AI overlord

- My fine art prints are high quality, vibrantly colored, and large enough to be able to pore over the subtle details in a way that’s hard to achieve through a tiny phone screen

- You will be supporting a small business and not a huge faceless corporation!!!

- The small business meaning literally just me, an independent artist attempting to pay my bills and put food on the table

- Which in turn allows me to continue making and sharing my art and connecting with so many lovely people like yourself

If any of that sounds good to you,
