I'm really tired of people outside the UK claiming that JK Rowling's bigotry doesn't extend to trans men and non-binary people. I can't get an autism diagnosis, because I'm scared that it will be used against me to deny me the healthcare I need, as Rowling and her ilk have been spreading the rhetoric that transmascs are just confused autistic girls who are too stupid to know their own gender.

99% of queer discourse stops right before they define the true difference between bisexual and pansexual!

[saspitite]

FOR THE LAST FUCKING TIME

BISEXUALS GROW FROM THE GROUND

PANSEXUALS GROW FROM THE CEILING

[fraterrisus]

No no, you're thinking of stalagmites and stalactites.

Bisexuals curve inward like an hourglass, while pansexuals curve outward like a(n American) football.

[lailah-tov]

No, you're thinking of concave and convex. Bisexuals are a one-sided, two-dimensional surface with a boundary, and pansexuals are a one-sided, two-dimensional surface without a boundary.

[alltangledupinblue]

No you're thinking of Möbius strips and Klein bottles. Bisexuals have bears, pansexuals don't have bears. (Phrased for maxiumum hilarity.)

[wintersoldierfell]

No, you're thinking of the Arctic and Antarctic regions. Bisexuals do not move, while pansexuals are paper products.

[ariaste]

No, you're thinking of stationary and stationery. Bisexuals are a figure of rhetoric used to describe something by comparing it to something else without using the words "like" or "as", while pansexuals are that but they do use "like" or "as"

[tiltingheartand]

No, you’re thinking of metaphor and simile. Bisexuals are intentionally unobtrusive, while pansexuals are individually separate or distinct.

[thewalrus-said]

No, you're thinking of discreet and discrete. Bisexuals are figures of speech where the part is meant to represent the whole, and pansexuals are the use of an attribute for the thing represented.

sorry I’m not leaving this in the tags

[modmad]

Could you please tag your invisible disability pride flag posts with eyestrain? I absolutely love the symbolism behind it but it gives me a migrane everytime i see it

Also have you considered making a more screen friendly version that isnt so contrasting? Like using a very dark grey instead of pitch black? I understand the contrast is part of the symbolism but as it is now its inaccessible to a lot of us with invisible disabilities

thank you for the feedback! gosh, I am so sorry- I made it high contrast to be accessible (in consultation with my partially blind friend) but if it's causing pain for some then I will absolutely reduce the contrast and make an alternative: how about this? to be honest the unicorn is the icon- you can put it on whatever bg makes you happiest!

here is a clear png with just the unicorn so you can put it on a background that best suits you!

[modmad]

hey as it is disability pride one time I made this unicorn icon as a representation of invisible disabilities- here's a post about all the what and whys about it- and it turned back up on my dash today so, if you folks would like to use it here you go! it's designed so that you can add it to other flags however you would like, so you can use your pride flag of choice as a background if you want to!

"only 90s kids remember-" wrong, if you're poor and/or rural enough, old tech and fashion doesn't just disappear when it stops being trendy. We had dial-up until 2012

[scramratz]

It sucks there seems to be a concerted effort to distance the transfem and transmasc communities from each other. If it weren’t for trans women, I probably wouldn’t have realized I was trans until much later in life.

The cis women in my life were so miserable in their womanhood, I thought that misery was normal. Seeing trans women actually love and fight to be seen as women made me question my own misery

I love when emotionally inarticulate/inexpressive/repressed women have a love interest who just loves them openly and unwaveringly. However this unfortunately brings the "she doesn't even like him" "he's too good for her" accusations that are NOT true let my girl be loved

So I do 3D modeling and printing as a hobby, and a few weeks ago I designed wheel guards meant to prevent office chairs from running over cables and clothes... or your pet's tail.

I got the idea from cowcatchers old locomotives used to have.

Anyways, yesterday I uploaded the model to Thingiverse, and just hours after uploading it, the Community Relationship Manager of the whole website left a comment suggesting I enter the model into a competition that's currently being held on the site.

So I did... and now it's in third place not even a day later. First place is $500, but the competition still has a month to go.

Then the Community Manager contacted me again, telling me they want to feature my model in an upcoming design promotion.

Just, what is happening? I mostly made this thing for myself in, like, an hour, and now it's suddenly super popular? This is all a little bit overwhelming 😵‍💫

Other models I worked on for weeks didn't get nearly as popular. I swear, it's impossible to predict what people will like.

Anyways, if you want to print the wheel guards yourself, you can get the model here or here.

I also made a quiet version you can stick furniture felt pads on.

People love simple, extremely practical things. I hope you win!
