Hey y’all, I’m opening up commissions! keep an eye on the blog description where I’ll keep you updated with when commissions are open or closed
I’ll do fanart (including of things I’m not a fan of), OCs, pets, but no real people. Image references preferred, but as detailed a description you can manage works too!
If you’re interested in commissioning me for a drawing, email me at [email protected] with a description of what you’re looking for and we can talk shop!
my god you people are so boring this isnt about making characters talk about their trauma this is about UNEXAMINED GENDER POLITICS in CROSSDRESSING PORN. for the characters themselves sex should be - and write this down - physically and/or psychologically damaging to all those participating. jesus christ.
so I guess it was some ancient Greek who said “truth lives at the bottom of a well” and I don’t know what he meant or why it stuck, but I’ve seen a lot of 19th-century references to it (because people always love showing off how much they know about stuff)
but I like this because imagine how fucking pissed off you would be if you lived at the bottom of a well in the first place, but then you had to climb all the way out of it somehow because humans were such unbelievable assholes that you were forced to yell at them in person
"If we use titanium instead of steel we'll save a bunch of weight" baby you need to stop worrying so much about your weight! And maybe worry more about what happens to titanium when you expose it to deuterium plasma.
One of the things I love about watching people make art on the internet is clocking the way they use the tools they know. The way a nail artist makes miniatures is completely different than the way a polymer clay artist does the same thing. How a whittler and a painter approach printmaking.
Consider the ways in which you are a rocket engineer.
I want to boost everything this person has said and add on.
The reason I call myself a tomboy now, despite it being seen as a childish word and having had someone swear at me over it because ‘tHeRe’S nO suCh thInG as BoY thInGs anD giRL thIngS sHut uP’ is because I couldn’t call myself that or be like that when I was a kid. It was seen as a negative thing and I was already bullied enough. “Looking like a boy” was the worst thing that could happen to a girl.
And I’m not even 26 yet. We aren’t talking 30+ years ago, we are talking 2000s and even 2010s. It’s only since trans people have become more accepted in the past few years that gender nonconformity has too.
And the people who helped me accept my gender nonconformity more than anyone else? Were trans people. They taught me, “there’s nothing wrong with how you feel. You’re still a valid woman no matter what you wear, how you have your hair or what you’re into ❤️”
And don’t even get me started on how people treat gender nonconforming men. JK Rowling has a lot of nerve to be like “uwu boys can wear dresses and only us gendercrits accept that!” when she has, even in recent works, made femininity in men a negative trait, as well as making masculinity in women a negative trait also.
A lot of people still don’t accept gnc people even now. Just last year I had someone tell me they’d never let their daughter “dress like a boy”, and I’m always terrified to walk into a bathroom in case the next JK Rowling is in there, sees my gender expression and pepper sprays me or worse.
“There’s no such thing as boy things and girl things.” I don’t need to be told that and I’m sure 99% of trans people also don’t need to be told that. Tell that to the society that hates us both instead of actively encouraging that hate.
Gonna point out the og tweet thread is now full of terfs saying that life was better for gay people in the fucking 80s, that it was super easy for them to be a tomboy in the 70s and 80s and therefore it must have been that way for everyone, and that it was totally acceptable to be a gnc gay person in the 80s! 🤪
They’re rewriting history as we speak to try to argue trans acceptance is making it harder to be gay and gnc for youth than it was to be gay in the 80s. This is a blatant lie.
I do increasingly want to make an ace and aro anthology where cozy slice of life is OUT and Bad Rep™ is IN. Give me your aro and ace nonhumans, your alien species where no one has invented romance and sex doesn’t exist, your loners, your grouchy bad-attitude assholes, your hackers who feel more affinity with computers than other people, your characters who are deeply hurt when others abandon them for their romantic partners and are not gracious about it, your people who feel outside of their society, your characters who make bad and selfish decisions and conversely your characters who are dramatically self sacrificing. Give me military SF and postapocalypse and angst and drama and stories where a small research team goes to a distant planet and everybody fuckin dies. Give me ace characters who aren’t patient or understanding and aro characters who do not give a shit about romance, fictional or otherwise. Give me aroaces who decide to take fate into their own hands and bomb Mercury about it
I lasted literally one singular day between finally posting the workskin I preemptively spoiled before I posted, and making another workskin that I am spoiling before I post it.
Unrelated, here's how to make what looks like a rainbow sticker on Ao3!
[ID: two screenshots of digital "stickers" that look like half-rainbows, facing opposite directions; they are surrounded by a white border and have a shadow underneath them, making look as if they are laid on top of the white background. End ID]
to use these, you'll have to make a workskin, then copy the CSS that I provide into it. Then, you would go into the fic, and apply the workskin to that fic (it's the "select workskin" drop-down in the section labelled "Associations"). Then, just copy the HTML that I provide into the location where you want a rainbow sticker to appear. Unlike the last one, no edits are needed!
Code under the readmore:
This is the CSS and then the HTML for the one on the left:
Make a new workskin (workskin, not site skin!), name it something unique, then paste the above CSS into it. Then, once you've applied the workskin to your fic, copy the below HTML where you want a rainbow sticker to appear!
In order to get the rainbow on the right, instead or in addition to the other one, you would follow the same procedure (pasting both sets of CSS into the same workskin if you want both to appear) for this code:
ugh of course he has two mothers. they just had to make it woke. and one of them's made of cloth and the other wire too. sick of this forced diversity bullshit
