now now i know we hate pjackk but if were getting serious here it WAS a character sideblog run by a transfem & i genuinely have to assume thats why pjackk was banned in the first place. i hope we all know this is another case of staff nuking a popular transfem blogger & not just like "lol pjackk got killed because he sucks"

[adastrabbit]

frankly its a little bit crazy that the character sideblog is getting more attention than milk5 who is the real human person who got all her blogs banned & reinstated & banned again within the day. we need to get a little bit serious i think

face makeup is evil. i don’t care. like eyeshadow can be a fun and creative thing and it’s not like anybody is going to think you genuinely have purple eyelids but face makeup that’s made to look “natural” just ends up making you think your normal skin is something to be covered up and distorts your perception of your face. the whole “it makes ppl more confident!” thing is a lie because it’s not that the makeup itself is making you feel confident it’s that it creates an association with confidence and the results of that is you end up hating your face which is the opposite of building your self-confidence.

[tallahasseemp3]

i keep getting (and blocking lol) comments like “let people do what they want with their appearance!!!” on this post when like that’s literally my point makeup should be a thing you wear because you feel like you want to be creative and fuck it why not have black eyelids and purple lips today. foundation and contouring and colour correcting that look “natural” are the opposite of that! you’re not doing it because you want to you’re doing it because you feel like your face is lacking without it after wearing it for so long and makeup companies prey on that. it’s a good business model because a foundation bottle is something you’re gonna have to replace once a year if you wear it every day but eyeshadow and lipstick will last you several years even with daily use like i’m a goth i wear heavy black eyeshadow on my eyelids every time i do my makeup and i haven’t had to replace it in years. “but foundation helps people go out in public because they have low self-confidence!” is a myth, and just because it’s a coping mechanism doesn’t mean it’s a good one like it will in the long run make you think your naked face is lacking which is fucked up because it’s your FACE. there’s nothing wrong with it and the industry that is selling you the foundation that “empowers” you is actively working to make sure you need to be empowered 

[tallahasseemp3]

“let’s totally erase cultural makeup!! you’re evil and mean!” i know the reading comprehension on this site is low but come on you know that’s not what i’m talking about at all. ah yes the ancestral and sacred practice of contouring your face and covering every single blemish you’ve ever had because god forbid someone sees you have acne like a real human person

Mirroring my post from bsky, about Lilith Zone and Zoë Sparks, who are urgently fundraising to avoid homelessness.

Two very important and influential artists need a little help to cross the finish line. If you have the funds, give back to some foundational voices in indie / altgames culture. Some brilliant creative voices who just need a little more time to get on their feet. Any of these speak to you? Donate.

Lily and Zoe have someone helping to find a place and provide transport, there is a tangible end in sight and every dollar goes directly to gas or help securing a home. These are real people who just need some help to achieve safety and stability. The two have given so much to the net, give back!

Comms from Lilith Zone can be requested at:

We, Lily Zone and Zoë Sparks, have less than two weeks to find housing and are running out of money, so we’re trying to raise funds quickly!

Lots of extras and goodies are being dropped at cicadamarionette to fundraise. Please share, look through, and donate what you can.

truly genuinely honestly for real i DON'T get why so many grown adult people stopped using google search for simple questions and just go straight to chatgpt now. it's not like google ever stopped working??? we've been googling things for decades without any issues why would you stop??????? to ask a program that lies half the time??????????????
