#please know the difference

[that1sleeplyartist]

not to be that one "Oh you're doing it wrong it's actually THIS way!" type of person but I've been seeing a lot of Transfem Jax designs (which I truly love. my fucking Shayla<3) BUT some people are using the Transmasc flag with some of the designs and stuff.

This is what the Transfem flag looks like:

Wendigo VS Wechuge

please let me rant i'm so passionate about ts

You're getting wendigos wrong. The picture on the left is the modern and wrong depiction of the wendigo. The pale thing on the right is an accurate depiction.

The original folklore of the wendigo comes from Algonquian-speaking Indigenous people, like Ojibwe, Cree, and Naskapi, from the East coast of Canada, Great lakes region, and Northern forests of Nova Scotia. The folklore describes the wendigo as tall, sometimes over 15 feet, pale tight skin, bloody lips and fingers, and a ravenous appetite that causes it to not only consume others, but pieces of its own body as well. The more modern, deer-like depiction of the wendigo stems from an illustration from 1944 by Matt Fox, with the deer skull imagery being added by white artists.

Another Native folklore monster that DOES fit the modern description of the wendigo is the wechuge.

The wechuge is described to be a giant made of ice or a hybrid between a man and an animal. Wechuge folklore comes from the Athabaskan-speaking people, like the Dane-zaa, in northwestern Canada. The Wechuge and Wendigo are very similar. Both are man eating monsters that possess humans. But PLEASE start accurately depicting them. The only media i've seen that accurately depicts a wendigo is Until Dawn and i've seen NO media that depicts a Wechuge.

I really like how she explains the difference.

lil reminder: band of brothers (the tv show) is a dramatized miniseries, not a documentary

Me, an asexual butch lesbian: *finds an improperly tagged fic with characters and concepts I like* (Mentally) This sounds good.

*While reading, non-straight couple kisses and profess love for each other*

Me: (Mentally) How cute! I’d love to be able to do that at some point.

*Gets to the story’s graphic depiction of the “horizontal mambo”*

Me: (Mentally) Abort mission, abort, abort!

I just said this in a private chat but I think I'm going to go ahead and say it out loud.

Too many baby leftists mistaking cynicism for wisdom and repression for responsibility

You know it bothers me that people in the OP fandom don’t know the difference between animation and art and now I have to deal with that in the Pokeani fandom :/
