[header ID: a picture of the Sixth Doctor and Peri Brown from Doctor Who. Peri is holding a fan with a flowery pattern in front of her and is smiling at the viewer. she has short brown hair in a bob and is wearing a headband. her head is slightly tilted left, towards the Doctor next to her. the Doctor is looking at the viewer with an almost displeased look on his face. his body is facing Peri, and he is raising his back arm in the air. the Doctor has short blonde curly hair. he is wearing a multi coloured waistcoat, with a white shirt that has a red question mark on the collar, and a blue and white polka dot patterned cravat. behind them is a building /end ID]
[icon ID: a picture of Sergeant Benton from Doctor Who. he has short brown hair and is wearing a UNIT uniform, which is a green army jacket, paired with a red rope on his only visible shoulder, a white shirt, and a sort of grey ish coloured tie. he is taking his khaki beret off of his head as he looks up, with a distressed look on his face. there have been two swirls edited onto his face, the first one being coloured to match the aromantic flag, and the second one being coloured to match the asexual flag /end ID]

"I'm gonna acknowledge an experience lots of young trans men and mascs with estogenized breasts go through and consider there's a lot of issues you face regarding estrogenized bodies you don't want including being barred from modifying them for your comfort, but if you tag this with the tag you use to talk about these things I'm gonna kill you and use your money to fund a weapon to genocide a whole group of people- it's ok I can pretend I'm including cis people when I say tme's, I'm bery smart actually"
Actual joke. This is a whole goddamn comedy cast. A mime show. A circus.

I had a dream last night that I ran away from fascists and ended up at this farm that was full of this weird but very large prehistoric animal that was like a fluffy Tapir and I want to know if it actually exists. It was about the size of a Dairy Cow.

I don’t know a lot about sewing, but I want to make or have my mom make some linen pants & shirts for when I’m watering, because it gets to 105 here and we have mosquitos so I need to be covered. What type of linen do I buy? Also, linen pajama shorts, yes/no?
(I’ve been wearing my renfaire pants which are a linen mix, I think. But the frikking mosquitos that hide in the tomatoes get my arms)
For wools, I cannot recommend Woolsome enough! They’re a bit more expensive then the above links, but they have a spectacular range of colours and weights, as well as diamond pattern and herringbone weaves. They also have a range of linens, though not as extensive.
parents are allowed to straight-up torture their kids with zero consequences. they can withhold food and water, lock you out of shelter, confiscate your belongings, bar you from human contact, attack and harm you and exert complete control over your physical appearance. and this is just the norm. if you speak out against it you're seen as a delinquent or a predator. even otherwise progressive people get uncomfortable with the idea of dismantling the nuclear family unit because they still see it as the best way to keep kids safe when that simply couldn't be further from the truth. it's evil.
This is also part of why I'm so loud about homeschool reform, specifically in the USA.
In the US, there is no meaningful legal definition for educational/academic neglect in any of the 50 states or federally. What this means is that a child can be "homeschooled" and exclusively be taught how to cook and clean, reach the age of 18 being unable to read, write, or count, and this alone is not considered neglect. That 18yo, should they even have the knowledge that suing exists, has no legal grounds to sue their parents for denying them an education.
In over 40 US states, a convicted child abuser can homeschool their children. So someone who has done time for child abuse and somehow regains access to their child(ren) can decide upon returning home that they want to "homeschool" their kids. Those children are now locked in a home with their abuser where nobody can see them.
There are no welfare checks.
There are no routine assessments.
There aren't even databases — state or federal — keeping track of how many homeschooled kids there actually are.
Meaning a child can be locked in their home for their entire life with their convicted abuser, learn absolutely nothing, never go to the doctor, and so long as that child is fed, clothed, and the abuse isn't physical or sexual, that child has almost no chance of rescue and no legal ground to seek restitution if/when they escape.
The only way homeschooled children get rescued is if they're beaten, starved, or physically neglected and they're able to get the right person to see that. Otherwise? They have to wait until someone finds out they were murdered as a result of their parents "homeschooling".
And feral homeschool parents love to jump down my throat about this, and then get even more pissed when I tell them I'm a homeschool alumni.
Because I know it's not all homeschoolers. But even one is too many, and the lack of protections should scare everyone. If you're a good homeschool parent, nothing will change. If not, you deserve whatever comes your way as a result of adequate oversight.
NIIKE !!! (Also Nemos there too) BUT NIIKE !!! He’s (because he is trans to me) probably my favourite main character in an ongoing manga . Actually that might Kyoko Mogami in Skip Beat but that one updates irregularly. But look at how ethereal he is
Also, the cover for the latest chapter
(I still haven’t read it because I want to wait till October, but I do look at the chapter titles)
He’s so <3
