Rewatched x-men (2000) and can I just say magneto's plan (turning all those politicians into mutants) was objectively hilarious. Like can you imagine. Somebody's firing the transgenderization beam into congress

HAPPY PRIDE MONTH!!!!

[procrastinationau]

been a while since we had a character bio! I'm doing them in watercolor now because my tablet pen crapped out on me. Anyway.

NAME: Shadow

AGE: ????

OCCUPATION: Kimiko's new bestie :)

LIKES: Bugs, the color purple, attention

DISLIKES: Goody-goodies, being ignored

SIGNATURE MOVE: Popping up in unexpected places

BIO: Much like her name suggests, Shadow is slippery and insubstantial, vanishing just as suddenly as she appears. Who is she, really? Where did she come from? Whatever her true motivations may be, she seems to have attached herself to Kimiko for now. Which is probably a good thing, right?

I mean he’s kinda ugly and freaky looking I’ll admit it but he’s special to me so it’s fine

And you find love and it stays with you.

Older women are so, so beautiful, and older trans women are no exception. Celebrate the beauty of our elders! Celebrate trans beauty!

I wanted to share some more of these, specifically trans women of color. The images I'm posting are from a project called To Survive On This Shore and it's an interview project. I am only posting a handful so it's so worth checking out!

This is Linda, 60

Alexis, 64

Helena, 63

Kendrah, 72 (!!)

Tasha, 65

It was deeply healing to me to discover this project. The site has selected photos and attached interviews and it's definitely worth your time. I didn't include any because the focus of this post imo is transfems but there are a lot of beautiful interviews with transmasc people too if you're interested! But that'll have to be another post 💖

for those interested, the photographer is Jess T. Dugan. The link to this particular project is as follows:

Remember when Lil Nas X beautifully explored his sexuality, seduced and killed the devil to the banger of all time, and instead of cheering on this openly gay and proud Black artist for his artistry and fighting back against respectability politics, suddenly said respectability politics was all the Queerest Place on the Internet cared about? Hm. Wonder what happened there.

Anyway I miss him and hope he's doing better with his mental health 🙏🏾
