Seeing people who full-chest talk about how transmasculine people need to be decentered in feminism is genuinely ??? "Let women be feminine" levels of online. You can't decenter a group that has never been centered, and the worst part is, you're telling everybody that continued transmasculine erasure is praxis. Rather than organizing around social forces of oppression, you're explicitly abandoning one of the most vulnerable groups to patriarchal violence.

youtubers should do reverse sponsorships. just interrupt the narrative of the video to shit-talk some random company for 1-2 minutes.

Aro culture is hating the "we can still love" framing that is rather persistent throughout the aspec community. Why are we framing our lack of certain forms of attraction as a deficit we need to "make up for" by loving in other ways? I'm a big enjoyer of platonic love but my relationships with others shouldn't be a substitute for the kind of love expected of me by society. And what about people who don't identify with the idea of "love" because of its romantic connotations? Are they not wonderful people with lives that are important outside of their connections with others? Idk it kinda rubs me the wrong way personally

🖤💜 Happy international asexuality day! 🖤💜🐀

Asexuality is the lack of sexual attraction to others, or low or absent interest in or desire for sexual activity 🖤💜

anyway i am once again tapping the sign that says poc can be cis, intersex people can be cis, disabled and neurodivergent people can be cis, queer people can be cis, even some multigender people are cis

just because someone is cis, doesnt mean they cant be marginalized in other aspects of their identity

i know folks are gonna call me a pedo for this one, but i grew up seeing my mom and grandma naked. they had health issues and at times needed care and help showering. and i truly think more kids need to be shown the nonsexual reality of naked women at a young age. there is nothing sexual about my grandmothers breasts, they were simply body parts. more women die of heart attacks because people are too afraid of breasts to do real chest compressions, because they are scared to touch their breasts. the sexualization of our bodies literally kills us. i need people to be more normal about naked bodies and i'm 100% serious.

Life update!

tl;dr: im fine, school is a lot, and something awesome is happening and if you would donate here that would mean the world to me

Hi everyone! It’s been awhile since… I’ve posted anything substantial. I’ve been really really busy with school, like more busy than i ever imagined. I just finished my spring semester, and I passed, yay!!!! I am SO TIRED, HAHA. Any veterinary school is not for the weak, us vet nurses (technicians is the technical term here) also get that. But, I’m very proud of myself. I’m taking a few days to just… catch up on sleep (GOD.) and with friends before I start making things and getting back to my commission queue. I left this semester with a lot of inspiration for art so hopefully you all will see that soon! Other than that… I have something pretty exciting to share!

As mentioned previously, I am currently in school to become a Licensed Veterinary Technician (essentially, a vet nurse.) and it is thanks to my school that I have been offered the wonderful opportunity to travel abroad to the Dominican Republic to help animal welfare. But this comes at a cost and I need help in reaching the funds to be able to go.

This experience will aid me in bettering my skills as a future LVT, but more importantly, I, alongside Project Samana’s team plus my colleagues and the veterinarian & LVTs that are educating me will be able to provide necessary veterinary care to animals who would otherwise not have it. By donating you are backing a wonderful cause and helping out animals in need!

Unfortunately, at the moment I do not currently have the time to take on any more commissions, but if this is to change I will update. For now, we have a donation pool (yayyy!)

Any and I really mean any, a dollar goes a long way in this economy, amount helps. I have until August to raise the necessary funds to be able to go.

If you are wanting to donate money but are unable to through kofi *please* reach out to me. If you are unable to donate in general, consider sharing this with someone who might be able to or who can help with outreach!

To donate, see here: https://ko-fi.com/sevenator/goal?g=0

To learn more about Project Samana please go here: https://www.projectsamana.org

Any additional funds to this goal will go towards the budget for future outreach events that my program may hold for future cohorts

Thank you so much in advance if you do choose to donate, you are helping thousands by doing so and I am eternally grateful. I hope to return the favor by going out and helping the community!

We’ve reached a little over halfway, but there’s still more to go! With the money we have raised so far I have been able to purchase the tickets to fly out & return. The remainder, once fulfilled, will need to go towards the deposit i must make for the hotel stay, food, gas for the car rental we are using, & to be able to purchase items i need in preparation for the trip

It's always "stop harming yourself or we'll have to lock you up!!!" and never "what do you need to change to want to harm yourself less and how can we help you make some of these changes?" and that's why we're not getting anywhere

[donutdrawsthings]

I was thinking of a pride art challenge people could do with their OCs, because I thought it'd be cute! A queer/trans artist with their creations.

but then I realised that same challenge would be infinitely more funny with folks who have atypical or horror OCs

[therapatical]

somebody apparently tried to get the Wikipedia page for discrimination against trans men deleted entirely because of the use of the word "transandrophobia". y'all are part of a fucking extremist hate group at this point. it's pride month and the government is killing us and you're actively trying to destroy documentation about trans people's discrimination? really? how fucking evil do you have to be to do this shit?

can we finally admit that these anti-transmasc people are part of a hate group? can we finally address this fucking problem and acknowledge it exists?

[tboy-cock]

"trans men have never done anything for the community or the world u cant name HARDLY ANY trans men in history" well if yall would stop deadnaming and misgendering the dead ones or even allow us to speculate if gnc "women" who "pretended to be men" might have been transgender and hiding their identity to avoid persecution because you just loooove your "girlbosses" so much then we might be having a different fucking conversation

[draconym]

i would rather see the information for an event handwritten in sharpie on a paper towel than see another AI generated flyer

[cherrysnax]

so when people are transphobic for jokes, is it just a phase? or is that only for antiblackness

[lifeafterpsychiatry]

"Clearly I wasn't talking about disabled people-" yeah part of the problem is that the existence of disabled people just isn't considered in your worldview like that's the problem we're criticizing not a get out of jail free card

[mephistopheles]

um so quick question you do know that the world isn’t divided into People Blindly Accepting Of Gender Roles and Smart Trans Ppl. the world isn’t divided into People In Romantic Relationships and Single Aros. the world isn’t divided into People Who Socialize Easily and Oppressed Autistics. the world isn’t divided into Enlightened Queer People and Stupid Misogynists. like you are aware of this ? i hope you are aware of this
