I'm so obsessed with my latest mug -- I think I've spent 6 hours on it so far? I even put a secret beetle on the bottom. May the kiln gods have mercy on my soul
This may seem silly, but are there any photos out there of frogs in costumes? Of times people have put real actual frogs into hats or capes or suchlike? My Google-fu is failing me and just giving me endless images of people in frog costumes interrupted occasionally by dogs, cats, parrots and babies in frog costumes.
hello sir, big fan, ive seen your request and im here to provide. I'm sorry to admit some of them are toads, i hope that's not a problem.
for the love of god HELLO???

this post includes a tutorial for stenciling stuff on a shirt, with paint or bleach, here is the finished result for ppl who aren't interested in the tutorial and still wanna see what i made
against me! on an old sleeveless tee i got from my dad
alright time for the crafting
first youll wanna draw or print out out your stencil.
i advice printing black on white, black being the stuff youre gonna cut out of the stencil.
also for stencils bigger than A4 (or whatever size ur printer can handle) i advise using blockposters.com to print out the images youre using over multiple papers
cover that paper front and back in tape, itll prevent the wet paint from leaking through or ruining your stencil, and youll be able to reuse it!
Now comes the
SUFFERING
time to cut out those stencils.
take ur time doing this, yes itll take long but youll be able to use this stencil forever afterwards so its worth it.
make sure parts of the stencil you wanna keep are connected to eachother, so you dont lose detail in the stencil.
the white stripes on the stencil is where i drew the connections between the loose parts of the stencil
time to paint
i always shove a big piece of cartboard inside the shirt im printing on to give me a surface to pin the stencil to and to prevent paint from leaking through, so it doesnt slide around while painting. (you can also tape the stencil down if you dont want to run the risk of the pins leaving small holes in your clothing)
to prevent paint from getting under the stencil i apply the paint by dabbing the point of a big brush, with a bit of paint on it, onto the fabric. itll take around three layers for the paint to cover completely.
wow you did a craft!
i always iron my shirts after painting to "seal" the paint into the fabric. doesnt always work so i always wash my shirts by hand the first time to see how well the paint stays on.
feel free to ask any questions you have, i hope this was comprehensible

Incredibly disappointing behavior made all the more cynical by it happening just after Pride Month
Here are some LGBTQ+ helplines to call instead of the Trevor project in the wake of this:

hey netizens! i'm not sure how many people are aware, but youtube's been slowly rolling out a new anti-adblock policy that can't be bypassed with the usual software like uBlock Origin and Pi-Hole out of the gate
BUT, if you're a uBlock Origin user (or use an adblocker with a similar cosmetics modifier), you can add these commands in the uBlock dashboard (under My Filters) to get rid of it!

I want to encourage you to request these from local libraries especially right now. If at all possible, it is a great way to support your local queer community and library at the same time!
1978 San Francisco Gay Day Parade
Excerpts from “Queer Action Figures” zine #3, 1996. NYC.
Here's some queer history in honor of the approaching Pride month.
It's an acronym.
The organization shut down in 1968 due to pressures from both straight and queer parties (there's always been those gays more concerned with being seen as normal than actual progress) but they permanently changed the face of the queer rights movement and their spirit lived in to today.
"Precisely because nobody fits the definitions of male and female, these categories gain power and currency from their impossibility."
-Female Masculinity (1998) by Jack Halberstam
So many cishet perisex people who wouldn't consider themselves GNC may fall outside of someone's perception of what a "man" or "woman" ""should"" be. Because gender is a spectrum, extending between man and woman and beyond, people of any label can fall anywhere on the spectrum. Long hair? Beard? Tall? Broad? High voice? Anyone can have any number of "conflicting" or "complimentary" characteristics and still be deemed "not enough" of something or "too much" of something else to be perceived as their gender.
Mix in things like race and culture, and "clear-cut" ideas of any gender becomes even blurrier.
We are so desperate to fit people into one of two rigid boxes, when almost no one--trans, cis, gay, straight--fits perfectly.
