Someone will say "as a queer person in the heart of empire, my life is in danger every day" and you'll find out they're a developer for Amazon and live in San Francisco or Seattle or some shit, and then you'll meet a trans girl from Alva, OK who's like "Yeah, things are pretty good. AutoZone moved me to full-time."
Someone in a queer group in my current blue city said that they didn't like expressions of solidarity because it "diluted their oppression".
#That's what I mean when I say the foundation of feminism and queer community should not fixate on victimhood #Once you feel that our suffering is our shared experience an not our love then our suffering becomes vital to the culture #I don't want a culture where suffering is vital #I want a culture where love is celebrated #The suffering is an imposition not a prerequisite #And yeah I sure fucking hope our oppression is diluted bitch you WANT us freebasing the uncut shit???
as someone who does sex ed stuff for a living (for some big sexual health nonprofits), i’m so jealous of how ur able to do sex ed stuff on tumblr. bc sometimes ppl will ask a question that makes me want to say “girl that’s obviously not what i was talking about” or “bro life is short go fuck nasty if you want” but instead i have to take a deep breath and give some sanitized answer because of ~optics~ and ~board members~ and shit. so anyways thanks for answering ppl’s questions in an accurate, nuanced, and super real way.
I promise I will be blunt and vulgar enough for us both, comrade 🫡
The Winter Maw, 2026
a totally handmade, fully-functional marionette created for the annual "Winter Exquisite" gallery show (this year's chosen medium was puppetry) at the Forbes Library in Northampton, MA - if you're local, you can visit anytime between the 7th & the end of the month!
for the winter theme, i designed a monster that blends my appreciation of this season's beauty with a more sinister, predatory element representing struggles against seasonal depression. bringing her to life was a huge learning experience & i got to try out a lot of new materials/techniques - i'd never made a marionette before! she took me all January but i'm very pleased with the result.
Every once in a while, I wish the friendship meter from the Sims was real so that way when people tell me "I used Chat-GPT" they can visually see just how much respect I just lost for them in that moment.
One time an acquaintance told me she entered Snape's star chart into chatgpt and I could physically feel that meter dropping three separate times over the course of her sentence
"Cherokee Words for Body Parts", Cherokee anatomy poster
- Loretta Shade & Hastings Shade, Cherokee Outpatient Center, Tahlequah Oklahoma
For those interested in how Cherokee is phonetically pronounced -
A as in ah or father
E as in eh or cake/fate
I as in ee or bee
O as in oh or no
U as oo or loose
V is a nasalized sound like the "u" in fun.
Ts can be a j or ch sound depending on word.
Q can be kw or gw depending on word.

literally a cartoon bad guy
I don't like sharing my house with a tiny nude man.
This counts as fan art
learning that constantly thinking about and analyzing and interpreting my traumas isn’t actually healing . and don’t get me wrong its made me a very effective communicator and emotionally intelligent person. but actually im supposed to be moving on and experiencing new things and happiness and stuff and not just compulsively reliving and recontextualizing the past. oops!
Best therapist I ever had helped me unpack my trauma and then, crucially, helped me pack it away again
Except this time it's all correctly labeled so when I start experiencing issues related to them I'm not just drowning in undefined pain.
I'm like: "ah shit the Childhood Neglect container is leaking all over everything! I better mop it up and put it in a new container"
And sometimes something comes up and I'm like: "ah. This belongs in the religious trauma box. Let me put it away and then I can do art until I feel better"
You unpack your trauma to organise it and correctly label it do you know how to handle it. But you still pack it away so you can live your actual life
every conversation on here increasingly feeling like this tweet
japanese serow and brown hyena... a bona fide pair of changelings
the problem with tumblr spells is all of you lil sluts are casting and not giving it time to charge so you're all casting cantrips and not 9th level death spells. everyone wants to be the one to take them down no one wants to be the one who assists
we're going to try again witha little but minimal casting
IT will happen in August of 2026. like to charge and reblog to cast but cast sparingly
Wait stop. everyone +like now and spread it a little but cast on the same day in August. lets try August 6th or something.
CAST NOW!!!
CAST MORE
i think one of the best parts about being a teenager in the early to mid 2010s was that cigarettes were definitely not cool anymore and vapes hadn’t popularized yet so my lungs made it out of my peak impressionable years relatively unscathed
*last post on dash was 15 minutes ago* every other Tumblr user has been raptured. I am all alone. nobody is out there
