This was the one time that Kiryu matched Majima’s freak and the results are now the stuff of legend…

Can we talk about Mio for a moment? The man had to play it so restrained for the first part of the series, and then just absolutely feasted on the material he was given in episode 9. Incredible.

I wanna give y'all a taste of the pain I've been enduring the past week.

So, I'm getting into figure collecting, and my first professionally made figure was Limtoys Gunslinger, also known as our beloved Mr. Morgan.

But being a Morston fanboy, I can't just leave Arthur alone with Bojack (the horse. He's custom painted, forgive the scratches, he needs some more work done.)

So I got to work on designing my own John as I'm too impatient to wait for one to be made. Plus, I figured it would be a chance to do a young John, a John that will be specifically mine. A pretty boy John if you will, because I'm a shameless fucking fanboy.

I got to work on the head annnnd...

Little disclaimer, I used a pre-made face and basically just built upon it with baking clay to get his features. Finished it up with makeup, paint, etc. Hair piece is entirely custom and hand-made.

I know he doesn't look as sharp as Arthur, but I loved him regardless, was super proud of myself and SO FUCKING READY for his body to come in the mail so I could put him all together.

There's just one issue.

The head I used as a base for John? It was an Emma Watson face sculpt.

So, the head was intended for a female body.

I did not take this into consideration at any point until-

Sigh.

So he looks like Adam Driver fucked a Giraffe, but I can fix it, right?

Well, I don't think I can. I have to start over. I've tried everything to get it to look right on that body and it just won't (not to mention he's beefy as hell and that ALONE is making me struggle to view this figure as John, but I don't think it's that bad. Under clothes you won't be able to tell.)

So yeah. I'm starting over. From scratch, with not pre-made face sculpt to go off of.

He's currently at that Five Nights at Freddy's bare animatronic flavor of terrifying, but hey, I did it once, right? Maybe I can do it again...

Maybe, I can finally bring little John to life.

And not shed a single tear in the process.

This has me giggling again

can we like…get rid of the so-called leather and rubber “pride flags” ? it’s honestly ridiculous and offensive to the lgbtq community. those aren’t pride flags.

dead-dyke

The leather pride flag is the second oldest pride flag. It has been at almost every single US pride parade and protest in history.

It’s older then you are, it’s older then I am. The leather community is responsible for pride. Leather daddies were the ones chasing away cops when they tried to arrest us for being queer in public back when Pride Parades were illegal in the US. They are still the ones chasing away cops and corporations from smaller pride events and those that aren’t sanctioned by Wells Fargo. The leather community is essential to the queer community and has a long and rich history.

Please fuck off if you’re not going to learn the actual history of pride.

And don’t fucking out your hate in our tags, asshole.

The leather pride flag represents an expression of self which is inherently queer, and a community which has been around for generations. It is not offensive to the LGBT+ community in any way. I have seen cis gay and bisexual men standing shoulder-to-shoulder with trans men, all of them united by their leather community roots. The leather community is more diverse and nuanced than you perhaps know, but that is no reason for you to shit on a community you don’t understand.

Here is a photograph from 1998, displaying the leather pride flag, the bear gay pride flag, and the rainbow flag. This is our history.

Here is a photograph from 1987: three queer women entering into the Ms. National Leather Association Contest, or simply gathering as spectators.

A photograph from 1988: Tony Deblase, the creator of the leather pride flag, and a gay man, embracing a fellow member of the leather community. Over his shoulder is Judy Tallwing McCarthy, a Native American woman who was part of the leather community from 1959. She co-founded the first lesbian BDSM group in Portland, along with her partner, Sashie Hyatt.

Just because you don’t know the history, doesn’t mean it isn’t there. Be humble, and always assume you have more to learn. Hatred, and outright dismissal of communities you know nothing about, is the most aggressively anti-LGBT thing I can imagine.

The leather community has always included trans people, lesbians, gay men, and bisexuals. The leather community is global and nuanced. The leather community is where many of us encounter our found families, and our lovers. For you to dismiss that is cold-hearted and ignorant. Just because queer sex is involved, doesn’t make the community dirty or bad.

I’m again fucking begging the baby gays to read/watch/listen to How To Survive A Plague.

Do you have any. Any idea. Any god damn clue. How kink intersects with LGBT and queer community. Queer history. Do you know why the community pushed for, and against, closing the bathhouses during the 80s? Do you know who organized awareness campaigns about HIV, even way back when it was still called GIRD. Do you know who created the safe sex pamphlets, the classes, who pushed for disclosing your health history to partners, who distributed contraceptives and condoms and dental dams at parties and meetings and baths? Do you even know where the safe sex education we have now comes from? Do you know where a bulk of the language about consent came from? Do you have any good god damn idea what the kink communities have done for us, and continue to do for us?

Keep their names out of your mouths because you clearly don’t know what the hell you’re talking about

If there is one thing I could say to young queer folks, especially young queer folks in the U.S. who are coming of age in a world that is more accepting than the one I knew growing up, it’s this:

Don’t be so quick to sanitize your queerness and make it corporate pride daytime TV-friendly. Don’t be so quick to jump on the purity bandwagon. Don’t be so quick to speak on what your community should look like before you’ve actually learned the history of your community, and always be aware that there are things you probably don’t yet know.

These things will not protect you. They never have. And all you’re doing is isolating yourself from community, from support, from the strength we all have when we stand together in a world that would gladly pick us off one by one.

Queerness isn’t as hidden or embattled now (in some places) as it once was, but make no mistake: when our existence was illegal everywhere the people you have this knee-jerk “hide the weirdos” reaction to are the very ones who would’ve had your back against the cops and the gay-bashers.

The people who made me feel safe to come out in my 20s flew the rubber and leather flags alongside the rainbow flag and often the trans flag as well. You don’t get to tell any of them they don’t belong anymore just because you don’t understand.
