The embrace that feels like home
My piece for the Potluck Secret Satan 2026, featuring AmphithereRose's Dian! Because I'm predictable and a stars druid drow with gold and purples was just a bit too tempting!! Also please look at the pattern on the borders of the picture I made that with so much love
i think if weāre going to have conversations about consent we should talk about how consenting to something doesnāt necessarily mean itās going to be a good experience, and having a bad experience doesnāt necessarily mean someone violated your consent. this can apply to a lot of situations but the two iām thinking of right now are sex and transition.
youāre getting it on with someone. you enthusiastically consent to having sex with them. afterward, you feel a little weird about it. maybe even distressed. maybe they did something you didnāt enjoy and in the moment you just didnāt say anything. maybe you just realized after the fact that you were not in a good headspace for sex and now your mental health is declining. that doesnāt inherently mean the person you had sex with violated your consent. sometimes it just means you need to take a break from sex or work on communicating your needs or boundaries better during sex.
and with transition, i feel like this is something that gets consistently overlooked but like. there will never be zero detransitioners. there will always be people who decide that actually transition wasnāt right for them. they could have had the best most thorough doctors in the world who did everything by the book and got full informed consent at every step. and some people are still going to decide they donāt like the changes and wish they hadnāt transitioned. that doesnāt mean that the doctors violated their consent, and that doesnāt mean that transition shouldnāt be available to anyone. it just means that we need to have more resources available for folks who detransition.
regret does not automatically mean someone did something wrong. regret is simply one possible result of having bodily autonomy, and i think we need to get more comfortable with that.
made me think of some of you <3

its awesome that neither mind reading nor god are real and all of the thoughts inside of your head are completely private and consequenceless forever #myprivacy
Eating when I need food (body hungry, requesting nutrients) and I want it: FUCK yeah this ROCKS
Eating when I donāt need food but I want it: This is okay Iām probably having some small delectable treat. As long as Iām not overeating to discomfort this will be enjoyable.
Eating when I donāt need food and I donāt want it: *This is something that some misled parents and caregivers impose and doesnāt apply to me as an abled adult*
Eating when I need food but I donāt want it (maybe sick/nauseous/menstruating, body signals confused, exhausted, waited too long to eat, preferred foods not available, etc.): The Trials and Tribulations of Maintaining This Mortal Flesh Could Never be Comprehended by Any Machine. I Am Burdened with the Unsought for and Unending Task of Providing for a Creature of Meat for my Comprehension to Inhabit. and actually after that banana I am feeling a little better.
new kind of guy dropped
he's unironically 100% correct and i will hear nothing against him
"Maybe it's just stress/anxiety" is so crazy as a Dismissive Statement because even when it *is* anxiety it's such an understatement to be like "how about you just chill out idk" when your body is poisoning itself with its own stress hormones. Like okay sometimes it is anxiety. This is still physically happening to me
"It's probably just stress" and it's like well documented that it can just kill people sometimes
do you guys remember when we googled something and we would get results that were actually related to the things we searched

legend tells of a mysterious being called ānuanceā that allows multiple things to be true at the same time. some say you can still hear its voice whispering in the trees
Iām running an Introductory Animation Workshop with creative arts students this Saturday (August 20, 2016) for TheĀ School of Creative Arts Open Day at Melbourne Polytechnicās Prahran Campus. Iāve rotoscoped and broken down some of the greatest dance gifs to their basic poses and weāre going to collaboratively design characters then MAKE THEM DANCE!!
Come down, check out the campus and say HI!
I canāt wait to see the weird animated goofs that result from this workshop, Iāll post them in a couple of days so we can all be in awe of their hilarious spontaneity!Ā
This was such a fun thing to make and do! YOU SHOULD MAKE ONE!!
I was literally just talking about the time I did My hero Academia animations to these and was going to find the references and lo and behold
okay hey real question: what are good ways to describe fat characters?
I see a lot of 'have more fat characters' and I'm Here For It but as someone who is skinny and in a world where most existing literature makes characters fat only as a joke or an indication of some variety of moral badness, I'm not really sure how to describe them in a way that's not objectifying or insulting. like, I've grown up on poetic descriptions of thin characters ('long slim fingers' and 'willow figure' etc etc) but I haven't read flattering descriptions of fat characters and I don't know where to start. I've seen a lot of 'how to describe poc' or 'how to describe disabled characters' or whatever and I've seen art ref posts for drawing fat characters, but no posts about how to write them well. so. open call for advice or for examples you've found and like??
I remember at least two posts about this subject. Alas, I was only able to find one.
Howdy! Fat short white woman here. I've got some hopefully helpful thoughts on this which I will share a little later (I've got a few things to do first sadly).
In the meantime, OP (or anyone else) if you have specific questions about what it feels like for me to be in a fat body or what I personally do and don't worry / think about... I'm more than happy to answer.
In the meantime - I know you said you've seen ref posts for drawing fat characters...but here's one I like (in case you haven't come across it) that is nicely wordy: https://www.tumblr.com/bacchicly/677854396964634625?source=share
Ok here's an actual one about writing fat characters that I've skimmed and that has some good advice!
[Social media resources updated 9/20/18 ā Article resource update in progress] Are you a skinny writer? Do you want to write an awesome fat
Ok as promised I've written my own post - idk if it will be helpful to anyone - but here's the link:

Happy writing!
