This is me @teeg - Tumblr Blog

literally every anti-polyamory caricature I've ever seen has just been filled with this latent rage that people that are "ugly" or "weird" are able to be desired by multiple people. fat people, autistic people, people who talk weird or have disabilities or even who are a bit cringey about their relationships - there's just a desire to discredit the fact that they're wanted and loved by portraying their relationships as intrinsically shallow. it could not be more of a self-admitting L if it tried to be. mad that people you hate are still capable of being wanted aren't you!

It kind of fucks with me that somebody killed ötzi the iceman because ötzi himself is like whatever but the silent presence of human hands that drew back the string of the bow that shot the arrow that killed him is crazy. the idea that there were various people involved in that situation and while one of them has had his last hours painstakingly reconstructed and studied to no end, the others now only exist insofar that an arrowhead had to get into his shoulder somehow. imagine killing someone and then suddenly your entire existence is only a vague shadow implied by the fact that you killed them. much to consider

Testing the mummified bone marrow of ötzi to figure out his ancestry whole time there’s definitely another person, maybe more than one, standing in the room with us but I can never see or speak to them because I only know them through the assurance that they were there too in the form of one single arrowhead. I hate prehistory so much it’s unreal

lesbians

autistic women being sarcastic

black and brown women who are loud and assertive

10 year old tomboys

discussions and appreciation of female biology

Mansfield Park is basically a bunch of really dumb twenty somethings desperately going “see??? we’re having FUN!!!” even though they’re all actually having a terrible time, and then hating on their chronically fatigued younger cousin for being the only one too honest to pretend otherwise.

I'm finished with art for the semester soooo here's what I've been workin on! All assets are my own. I used a DSLR camera along with Photoshop and Clip Studio Paint

Feel free to send asks about the unaltered photos/photo locations, cause some of the original signs were pretty interesting tbh

what's that one thing where they asked how ripely from alien was so realistic and believable as a female character in scifi for once and they were like "well we just took the dude from the original script and made him a girl and changed nothing else. it works bc men and women are the same?" and people were like "woah no way" and then didn't learn anything from that for 20 years

detectivehole

"how do you write such believable men as a woman?" "how do you write such believable women a man?" and the answer people who are good at it always give is "i just write people. were literally the exactly the same. do you think the opposite sex is some sorta totally different animal???" and people respond "woah that's wild. yea i do. and im not gonna stop thinking that goodbye :)"

I remember seeing an interview with Louis Gossett, Jr. when he won the Best Supporting Actor Oscar back in 1983 for An Officer and A Gentleman. He had replaced a White actor at the last minute, and he said they offered to change anything in the script to make the part more authentic as a Black character. And he said while he appreciated the offer, he was pretty sire that Black and White drill instructors did their jobs the same way.

the kamala harris campaign was so bad it's crazy. like setting aside all my loonie leftie purity testing positions like "genocide is bad" for a second, even setting aside the fact that biden hideously sabotaged it by demanding the campaign not do anything that might make him look bad like, say, 'promise any differences at all from his unpopular administration' -- the pivot to immigration hawkishness was unbelievably stupid. trump is the ultimate issue owner on immigration, you are never, ever, going to convince someone whose main worry is about Evil Illegal Immigrants Taking Jobs and Doing Crime, to vote for you over donald trump on that basis. kamala harris could have filmed herself executing undocumented children with a shotgun and it would not have moved the needle on this, so all that these ads achieved was affirming for such voters that The Border was the Big Issue of this election and so that they should vote for the Border Wall Guy.

& again i am saying this from the point of view of my electoral politicsona, this is all, yknow, fairly within the purview of uncontroversial liberal polsci shit. Legendarily bad campaign, in any sensible world these people would never be allowed to touch electoral politics again. let alone what would happen to them in any Just world

It really is amazing that they had one thing going for them, Walz leading the charge on calling the Republicans weird (and they are, they believe very weird things, and even Carville was telling Democrats to campaign on this) and then some advisers said "no don't call them that" and they just stopped. Instead they pushed forward on the Median Voter Uber Alles strategy that forgot there is no longer a median voter.

She probably would have won just by saying "we're going to make further aid to Israel contingent on respect for human rights" and won handily, at least they wouldn't have alienated every left-wing voter under 65.

making art sites that don't allow NSFW is useless to me. not even to get my rocks off, i mean at this point not allowing NSFW ends up being a nightmare of random queers getting banned because the guidelines are too ill-defined and art that presents the human body, especially femme and trans, will just get obliterated for no reason despite not being sexual.

leog4u

come here and make art :) except the gross art. we don't want the gross art

Don’t forget that “NSFW” means “Not Safe For Work”. As in, if you’re at work and the boss sees you looking at it, you’ll be penalized. As in, NSFW is defined by what joyless corporate types will get upset at. As in, NSFW art includes any art that will make corpos upset enough to punish you for it.

In other words, all LGBT art is by definition NSFW. Same with all leftist art. Same with all pegan art. Same with a lot of ethnic minority art. It’s all stuff that make corpos mad. And it’s all stuff that a site that don’t allow NSFW art will target as they see fit. It’s not a bug, it’s a feature.

all that said the guy with my car insurance company who answered the phone was so fucking funny. he had a heavy Georgia accent which endeared me to him immediately and he was sooo worried about me and apologetic that there was no one to send to my aid and I said "that's okay. if i end up missing though they're gonna interview you as the last person who heard from me. what if there's a documentary?" and he said "ooooooo, can I start drama?" I said, "well, what kind?" And he said, "I'm gonna tell them you said you saw a green flash in the sky over the field and I heard strange voices then the line went dead."

genuinely obsessed with him to this very day.

“Be curious about what you’re writing about” is not stock Common Writing Advice but it really, really should be. There are a lot of written works that fail due to the authors just being obviously incurious about what they are writing about.
