always fantasized about a cute girl shotgunning smoke into your mouth, but never had a joint to share with her? here's how to roll your own!! ^x^ feel free to send an ask if you have any questions!!
throwing a hand grenade into a hornets' nest here but all other criticisms aside, its just plain weird that so many people insist that half-century old usamerican bar culture (butchfemme, drag, etc.) is a Universally Understood and Accepted Queer Experience. like the overwhelming majority of present day queer people have zero connection to this concept, let alone the millions that have existed across history.
basically done for good on here. i'll make a cleaned up pinned post linking to the things i care about in the future
if a block list exporter ever gets made please get in touch with me because i think mine is quite well curated, less a few false positives and people i just think are stupid assholes
if anyone doesn't have alt contact info for me and wants it, send me a dm, i log in to check them every so often. play CS2 with me.
I've officially been served an eviction summons. My case is in less than two weeks.
My name is Paz, I'm an artist currently working and going to school to survive. I've been in poverty for the past four years, and I am hitting a breaking point. I am at serious risk of being homeless.
I'm a full-time student, and I also work. My situation has been worsening since I've started this campaign. I am optimistic I'll be able to get on my feet, but things are extremely hard. My mental health has suffered tremendously from the stress of losing housing, but nonetheless I am still exploring lawyers and other contingencies. The stakes are high, an eviction could stay on my record for the next seven years, and that would severely limit my options for leasing an apartment. I am really tired and exhausted from the trap of poverty, I'm really tired.
My job does not pay enough, school is increasingly difficult and I'm still trying to fix my GPA. I feel it physically, the stress, I feel my health getting worse, I feel tenseness throughout my body. I feel like I can't catch a break. Disability also compounds all the problems laid out. More than anything, I just want honest work with good pay, and I want to make comics on my time off. Art has been a refuge, and it's always nice when others like and share my posts. It makes me happy.
Sorry for the GFM posts, I'm just doing everything I can right now to not fall apart. I'm looking for another job, but the job market is really bad. I currently have commissions open, but they will be severely delayed due to court and my life circumstances more generally. Sorry to anyone currently taking a slot waiting for a commission update, I promise I haven't forgotten about you, I'm just prioritizing my current situation. I hope you understand. If you are interested in a commission, check out my comms sheet (pazataque.neocities.org/commissions), and/or check out my Ko-fi or Patreon. You can message me on IG, Bluesky, Tumblr, or simply email me at the email listed on my website.
Donations to my GoFundMe campaign will go towards housing, groceries, court fees, late payment fees, and other household items/necessities. Leftover funds will be put away in a rainy-day savings account.
If there's any way you can help, please consider donating here: https://gofund.me/2ac4ed0fb . Anything helps, and it is greatly appreciated. To those who have donated, thank you for helping me during this hard time. And if you can't help financially, you can feel free to share this post, like or comment it for engagement, or otherwise keep me in your thoughts and wish me luck. Thank you.

the incredible violence with which lesbophobia is normalized in every facet of society is sickening every time it crosses my mind. i'm so sorry lesbians, you don't owe men your time, respect, or body, and you don't deserve to be in community with people who insist the opposite, including other queer people.
i have got to get my father to sit down and focus and actually watch some portion of HLVRAI before he dies. im constantly haunted by the knowledge that all this incredibly innovative, completely grassroots improvisational theater--which is frankly some of the most cutting edge "new media" that currently exists and gets zero credit from academia or the larger art world for it because you have to be an exact 50/50 hybrid of annoying shakespeare college guy and annoying extremely online guy to understand what's even going on--is happening ON TWITCH for an audience of people who, while appreciative, are only experiencing it in the context of it being a "[a joke about a] video game stream". there should be regular columns in the New Yorker about stuff like Jerma's Dollhouse stream, one of the most well-known pieces of performance art in the classical sense that currently exists. it just bugs me. i dont know what to do about it. i used to be able to get paid to write really long articles about stuff like this in Kotaku and Wired etc but there's no readership for that either, and there wasn't then. no matter who im trying to explain how groundbreaking this stuff is to, they will need like a 30 minute preamble about either the world history of live theater traditions, or why the joke a gnome just said originated on the Something Awful forums in 2004 and why it matters.
of the two types of annoying guy you have to be to get this particular angle on this medium, the theater people are the ones who are going to get more out of it with much less explanation, but when you spec out of academia you lose touch with that peer group except for the other dilettantes, who are extremely few and far between. there's nothing anyone can do about this except vaguely plan on writing a book someday
for the first time ever in human history we are experiencing as an audience an improvised, live, ensemble theater production from the first person perspective of one of the actors. there should be a new paper about this on Academia.edu every week!!! its a big deal!!
me trying to explain to a theater person why someone is trying to distract Gordon and keep his field of view pointed a certain way while they delete the Lanky Kong prop they just spawned behind him by accident: its like that scene in A Night At The Opera where Harpo climbs the matte paintings during Il trovatore and drops the Potemkin(?) backdrop behind the Anvil Chorus
them: ohhh i get it. lmao
me trying to explain to the average twitch viewer why they keep calling the Vortigaunts "Vonneguts": so first up have you ever read "a book"?
hello friends and comrades, today i met a trans girl in need of help. ill let her words speak for herself:
I'm Alice Mcdorman and I've been homeless for a year and 3 months since I had to flee an emotional abusive relationship in wisconsin, I have a job now in my hometown and I'm working on clawing my way out of homelessness but I need some extra help to get out of homelessness, honestly any help is very helpful. I'm going to be using the money for food and to get some form of shelter while I wait to hear back from apartment complexes and the housing authority in my town.
her ca is $GoddessEd3n and even a small amount is appreciated

The bourgeoisie needs hirelings who enjoy the trust of a section of the working class, whitewash and prettify the bourgeoisie with talk about the reformist path being possible, throw dust in the eyes of the people by such talk, and divert the people from revolution by giving glowing descriptions of the charms and possibilities of the reformist path.
