He/Him • Steven Universe art! mostly of which being Connverse • I have another blog, @bruder-wurm where I post my non-steven universe art if you'd like to see that.
Transphobia is about to be signed into law in the UK. We can fight this.
I am begging the UK trans community and its allies to attend the Mass Lobby at Parliament on June 25th, 11am-4pm, organised by Trans Solidarity Alliance.
Last year we broke the record for an LGBT+ mass lobby of Parliament. Will you help us break it again? Join us on 25th June 2026 to demand be
The new EHRC Code of Practice pushes trans people out of toilets, hospital wards, and community spaces. It normalises gender policing based on appearance and stereotypes. It becomes statutory guidance in the UK by the end of June.
Trans people are now legally their assigned gender at birth and must join gendered spaces accordingly, but if they are perceived as their lived gender, they can also be ejected from those spaces. The guidance says: either break the law, or don’t pass too well.
A mass lobby is where you invite your MP to discuss your concerns with you in-person. Ask your MP to:
Demand full parliamentary scrutiny, debate, and use their free vote on the EHRC Code of Practice.
Support any motions rejecting the EHRC guidance. As of June 4th, Labour MP Nadia Whittome has submitted a prayer motion - Early Day Motion 240.
Write to Bridget Phillipson, the Minister for Women and Equalities about our concerns
Your MP does not have to be an ally, they do not have to respond to your email for you to show up and greencard them (details below the cut.) What matters is that as many people as possible show up.
I cannot stress this enough: Showing up in person matters. It is much more effective than petitions, emails, and letters.
It is a horrible, stressful time, and I am so sorry if you're trans and live in the UK. But I was at last year's mass lobby and the line for greencarding alone stretched around the back gates. It was a record breaking mass lobby and made us impossible to ignore. Let's do even better this time. Details under the cut:
Worried about what to say?
Bring your personal worries about transphobia being signed into law, and trans friends being excluded from public spaces. You are a living person who deserves dignity. Remind your MP of that. You will also get guidance and brochures from Trans Solidarity Alliance that outlines our demands. This is mine from last year.
Money issues?
Trans Solidarity Alliance provides a travel bursary that you can sign up for via the link.
Got a refusal or no response from your MP?
Come anyway! You can request a same-day appointment with your MP through a process called greencarding. They will come and see you if they’re already in Parliament. Even if they don’t, they’re made acutely aware of your cause because you showed up in person. This is my greencard from last year.
Here is the EHRC Code of Practice in full. It's a tough read, but some highlights are:
Organisations can’t provide trans-inclusive, single-sex services, or they risk being sued for discrimination.
e.g. domestic violence support for women including trans women, men’s rugby group including trans men (12.68).
Trans people will have nowhere safe to pee.
If you’re a trans man, businesses can't allow you to pee in the men's, and you can also be ejected from women’s bathrooms if you’re perceived as a man. Vice versa for trans women. EHRC suggests a ‘third space’ bathroom, which is discriminatory and unworkable for most businesses. (13.130-133)
Sports organisations must exclude trans people from single-sex competitions (13.73).
A women’s only sports competition must exclude trans women because of their biological advantage or face potential lawsuits (13.74), but a trans man who has undergone testosterone treatment can also be excluded based on fairness rules (13.81).
Trans women are stripped of the legal definition of ‘lesbian’, and therefore no longer have legal protections if they’re discriminated against on the basis of sexual orientation. (2.50, 2.92).
Here is the Good Law Project's better explanation of the EHRC Code.
I have also made a PDF printout of QR codes for the government petition, email your MP tool, and mass lobby link to pass around your communities. DM me and I'll send it to you.
how do you think bout connie and steven would've reacted when they found out Connie was pregnant? Anytime you draw connverse, I remember how much I adore them 🥹🙏🏾🪷⚔️ !!
AGHGGHHG TYSMMMM I LOVE THEM SO BAD 😭😭💕 i have sooo many ideas in my head but its 4 am and none of them are coherent. And ive been drawing these for a while so all i can do is give some vague thoughts and show these drawings to you and try and project my thoughts into your mind via brainwaves. My bugs. this idea had me giggling for a while
Also just some quick ramblings on connverse baby/pregnancy in general cuz. I feel like connie and steven dont have kids until like their mid to late 20s. And like i think that’s lowkey my default for all my blorbos now probably just because im entering my 20s and the thought of me or any of my peers between the ages of 20 and 25 having a child is TERRIFYING to me but also
1. people are having kids older on average nowadays anyways
2. Connie definitely has all her major life events planned out and she is INCREDIBLY careful to not fuck this up i think
3. I just think they should have a while just as the two of them. Stevens living and enjoying his life now and they’re in no rush
4. To actually have kids they have to also fight stevens 7 Evil Parental Issues /ref and that’s a WHOOOOLE other can of worms. But they get there eventually
I remember also when i posted my last connverse baby drabbles on insta, i posted them along with my sketches from the ask about ukd and rapunzel’s pregnancy (which were obviously much angstier), and i had some people talking abt connverse baby/pregnancy angst there which i found kinda funny because like hey i’m always down for suggestions (even tho i usually don’t do them) but i GENUINELY couldn’t think of anything like i felt like i was out of the loop somehow.
And like i guess i can only think of something with steven’s gem half and that impacting the baby and taking a toll on connie in some way? And I can see that being interesting but like me personally that just does not rlly click in my brain. I feel like because steven’s gem gives him all his abilities and their kid wouldn’t have a gem, i can’t see the baby having any powers or anything, nor can i see it having a Huge impact on the pregnancy
i feel like maybe it was a little more tiring and the labor was a Little abnormal for Human standards but like, nothing super freaky or life threatening ever happened. HOWEVER ☝️ I do think steven was REALLY FUCKING DISORDERED about THINKING something would happen. like his mood swings were just as bad as her’s /j he’s happy about it most of the time and then suddenly he’s just deeply convinced she’s going to DIE and everyone’s like. Hey. Hey man. Let’s chill out abt that? And other than that they were fine
Simon and Pearl are in a (for lack of a better term) lavender marriage. both of the loves of their lives morphed into eldritch horror/human child so they keep eachother company and wallow.
I keep having dreams about like mini epilogues after Future but before Lars of the Stars and everytime I wake up sad because it doesn't exist. I think this is the 5th time my brain has conjured one of these.
I have this headcanon that sometimes steven accidentally uses gem phrases in casual conversation which is INCREDIBLY awkward considering he’s literally just some guy now. Like he never even says those things around the gems they’re just subconsciously drilled into his vocabulary. he uses “oh my stars” sometimes which is a little embarrassing but overall not that weird. But i think he’s slipped up and called someone a gem insult at LEAST twice
Connverse in 50 years where Connie is president but her and Steven still look way too young and there are conspiracy theories that the government is withholding the cure for aging and people are too stupid to understand that Steven is just a gem and he heals her
Apparently, from what I hear people say, in the new Tumblr update, if someone reblogs your post and adds a comment of their own, that reblog is counted as a new post and it belongs to the reblogger. Not you. You, as the OP, do not get the notifications if someone else later reblogs from the person who reblogged your post with their own comment. You can’t see what comments people leave on the reblogs of the post you originally made unless they reblogged directly from you.
If this is actually true, it will just open doors for harassment. And also it takes the credits away from the OPs. Tumblr’s etiquette has always been “reblog don’t repost”. So this new update, if true, contradicts the whole core values of Tumblr as a community.
Respectfully, we don’t want this @staff @support @tumblr @changes please listen to your users.
I’d also like to clarify that this is what I hear from what a lot of people are saying, and it bothers me. But if I got anything wrong, I do apologize.
His cuteness is intoxicating and makes me feel like a primal ape, gemcation is a very cute and interesting episode, to me….. some opals in there too as per a request and a singular spinel, there was an evil spinel drawing but then I realised I drew her gem upside down and felt too much shame to post her
Steven and Connie yay! Yay! Yay! I'm so fucking mad because I really like how I drew steven in the first one and I don't think I'll ever be able to replicate it ever again
Since I have nothing else to post here's this thing I made in like 2019 that I dug up
I have no recollection making this. I think it's of if Steven went to school and is on a fieldtrip? I do know the girl at the telescope is not Connie. At least Steven's nose is not upside down in this because I do remember I used to mess that up for some reason lmao. It was just a square with dots to me, permutation was optional.
