IT FELT SO SWEET

IT FELT SO STRONG

[frogopera]

moving blogs!

hello!! it’s been a while!! so long story short after leaving tumblr for a bit i realized that this blog thats been active for like 5-6 years or so and is impossible to regulate anymore isn’t making me happy anymore. keeping it operational is more stressful than anything else SO i figured it was finally time to just restart with a fresh blog!! i’ll still be posting art over there (with proper tags for it and everything lol) but it’ll also be more of a mixed blog where i might reblog stuff to it too? idk im still working things out!! 

anyways the new blog feels a lot better to me it’s cleaner and i can actually handle it properly (not that this blog was THAT huge of a mess but i mean….i made it when i was like 12 so uhh) so feel free to follow me at my new blog!!

@coeurcore

sidenote: i’m gonna keep frogopera as like…an archive so i’m not deleting it but it won’t be active anymore

It’s hard being trans. It’s even harder when you can’t find a doctor. A new site hopes to fix that.

There’s a lot of talk about physical violence and employment discrimination against trans people, but there’s one aspect you don’t hear much about: health care.

According to 2011′s National Transgender Discrimination Survey, nearly 20% of survey respondents reported having been refused care because they’re transgender. More than 25% reported being harassed in a doctor’s office, and 50% had to actually educate their doctors on aspects of trans health care.

“I have been refused emergency room treatment even when delivered to the hospital by ambulance with numerous broken bones and wounds,” says one survey respondent.

But a group of four trans people have teamed up to provide a simple service: connect other folks with trans-friendly medical providers.

this is fairly obvious but any time a movie is made about gay people with large age gaps it’s stemming from the homophobic belief that gay people are predatory / pedophiles

Maybe put it on a canvas instead of someone’s property, and we can all be happy.

[niggardlydefiant-deactivated201]

who paying for these canvases or the art programs so these kids can have that? Why should it matter if these run down buildings that never get fixed up anyway get graffiti’d? 

[kyssthis16]

Therein lies the issue. Art programs, both visual and performance based, are the first programs to be cut. Canvas ain’t cheap. Neither are the supplies. Much of the graffiti that takes place IS on buildings that are run down. The gov’t didn’t place any value on these properties and yet get pissy with dudes “vandalizing” their shit. You can’t have it both ways, ya dig.

My father was a garment contractor in LA. In the late 80s, he owned the building where he had his factory. He thought it would be a cool idea to commission local graffiti artists, usually young Black and Latino men looking to stay out of trouble, to paint murals on his buildings. After all, he runs a garment design/manufacturing company, and creative signage is great advertising.

One day, he showed up to the building and the city just painted over the murals without permission or notice.

First, the city told him he couldn’t have graffiti art on HIS building because it brought down property value. After he complained, then they said: ok you can do this, but you need a permit. After he got the permit, then the city said: ok, but you can only use these artists.  Of course, these artists were all White graphic design students from USC, and of course they charged 3x more.

There is a prejudice against this type of art, and it’s racial.  Banksy vandalizes folks buildings all the time, and folks treat him like the Messiah. He ain’t doing nothing new that Black and Brown folks haven’t done for decades.

If you’re exclusively attracted to fictional men, than you’re probably not attracted to men. Fictional men have the aesthetic appearance of men but what makes a man is a lot more than the aesthetic appearance of one and men in tv shows are often idealized and act in ways that we never see in men in real life.

I’ve seen that post about the white kid egging the Senator like five times now but nothing about vivafalastin, the young Muslim woman on Twitter who confronted Chelsea Clinton for speaking over Muslims and has been getting death threats for the last 24 hours now.

Go follow her and support Muslim voices instead of white voices. 

[eliciaforever-deactivated201906]

That white kid was released from jail without charges, btw.  

But Viva Falastin, who is Muslim and has a right to speak as a Muslim woman (and has the right to be angry when white people talk over her), is watching her life get destroyed.

The absolute definition of white privilege.

[mitskism-remade]

Her name is Leen Dweik.

[grayclouds]

i should add the context for this: chelsea clinton, who sicced her delusional white boomer mob on ilhan omar, a black muslim woman, smeared her as antisemitic for criticizing israel (not jews, israel) and on top of that using the words “as an american” which is literally reinforcing islamophobic rhetoric that helped empower someone like the NZ shooter. after doing this, clinton still thought it a good idea to take her ass to a vigil meant to mourn the muslim people killed in the shooting, which leen dweik very understandably didn’t fucking appreciate and so she reacted with anger at clinton’s presence because you know 

49 people in her own community were just fuckin murdered so you’ll excuse her for her trauma

note that im not remotely saying that clinton is responsible for the shooting, just like leen dweik wasn’t saying that, but what i am saying is that clinton was complicit in fostering an environment that breeds these type of tragedies

and now you have yet another mob coming for this palestinian muslim girl and pundits with millions of followers gleefully piling on top of her to protect Rich White Millionaire Heiress because GOD FORBID delicate white women be made to feel uncomfortable for a few fucking minutes while being held accountable for the shit that they spew! let’s go ruin a college student’s life i guess!

and that’s the story so far

There is no difference between white people and White People™, straight people and Straight People™, cis people and Cis People™, and so on.

Wanting a buffer to differentiate between good and bad members of an oppressor class or subgroup completely destroys the nuance of how privilege, oppression, microaggressions, and discrimination function materially and only serves to assuage the guilty conscience of those people and to give them plausible deniability regarding their own behaviors. 

Its not about a good and Bad™ binary, its about how a spectrum of behaviors and social functions create and maintain damaging social conditions that are enforced, willingly and unwillingly, actively and passively, by the actions of the privileged and how they should take action to check those behaviors and mindsets in themselves, as well as how their own intersections don’t cancel out their privileges, but alter their appearance and behaviors.

Transmisogynists have been talking about putting “terfs don’t interact” banners on their own posts to trick people into reblogging them

So remember to look at people’s urls before reblogging

[pussyhaver-deactivated20231126]

how have they not had a “are we the baddies” moment yet when they really are advocating just flat out lying to make their ideology palatable

[pussyhaver-deactivated20231126]

Like this isn’t just “twisting the truth” to suit your needs or omitting the Fine Print because it’s convenient like so many ideologies do, this is flat out just, lying

[incendiarybomb]

If you guys are on Chrome install shinigami eyes and any red links including Tumblr URLs are transphobic/terfs. That should help stop them
