家主は…オレがしょうじにシワをつけたと？

Hey landlady, do you say I crinkled this paper slide door?

むー……

Hmmmm……

そうですよ！オレですよ！オレがやりましたよ！

That’s true! I did! I crinkled this!

“That’s true! I did! I crinkled this!“ A painting of my favorite post from @straycatj I hope my rendition of this dastardly crime did it justice

Why do you reveal my naughty past… although it’s a good art…but…but…but…

if you ask the average person what they know about bottom surgery (literally any bottom surgery) their answer will be "I've heard it's not very good." like across the board. they will say that the technology "isn't there yet" and that it works/looks/feels "different"

(they can't describe how with any specifics. they usually do not know surgeries are often multiple-stages with multiple procedures involved, and certainly not the names for these procedures. there is never any consideration given that "difference" might be desirable or actively pursued by some, or that anyone wants an end result that does not involve pericis normative genitals at all).

that is what people have unconsciously absorbed culturally before they ever look into it themselves. all information about these surgeries has to first pass the barrier of "but I've heard it's not very good."

there is also a very common prejudice that trans people are manipulative, hiding bodily information, and trying to "lure" people into transness.

when this baseline "common sense" about bottom surgery (that it is bad) is conflicted by information from a trans person (who by default is imagined to be manipulative, hiding information about it, and trying to lure you), people's initial reaction is to assume the trans person is lying and attempting to coerce people into surgery.

it creates this paradoxical position where no one who has actually had these surgeries are taken seriously, and only people who have the least accurate medical information about trans people's bodies are trusted to speak about them. the less you know about healthcare, the more "objective" your descriptions.

this is frustrating always, but for those trans people who have gotten these surgeries, and are constantly treated as unreliable witnesses to their own bodies in favor of the clearly 'unbiased' descriptions of transphobic asshole #5642498, I suspect it takes on a surreal absurdity that is apt to jokerfy anyone

tomorrow i have to give my daughter’s pikachu plushie gender-affirming surgery

[beneathsilverstars]

(original tags: she literally had tears in her eyes while she explained that her pikachu had a boy tail shape. i was like hey she can still be a girl. all we know from her body shape is what her body is shaped like. maybe if we asked her she would say that she feels like she’s really a girl. and my kid was like BUT POKEMON CANT TALK 😭😭😭😭 so i was like ‘ok. pikachu. if you want to use he/him say ‘pika’. if you want to use she/her say ‘chu’. and if you want smth else say ‘pikachu’’. and my daughter had her say ‘chu’ and i was like see there you go! now. she doesn’t HAVE to change her tail shape. she can totally be a girl with a rectangle tail. but if she would feel more comfortable with heart shape bc she prefers it, or so that people won’t assume she’s a boy, i can make that happen. so pikachu what do you think? do you want tail surgery? and pikachu agreed enthusiastically! so. plushie gender-affirming surgery first thing tomorrow i guess!)

her results look great, congrats pikachu! 💖⚡️🏳️‍⚧️

Was so cool that I was able to recognize so many of the random background inverts and fish in the first epi of Sayonara Lara. They really did their research.

Crystal Jellies

Glass Octopus

That random Enigma Seamount Crossota Spp. that hasn't even been named/identified yet

Dumbo Octopus :3

And there's even more like Moon Jellies, Humpback Anglerfish, Parrotfish, Cambered Nautilus, and even a Coelecanth (it's hidden in the background).

Whoever worked on this epi definitely had fun. God I loved it

and also Grace

cancel your mullvad subscription

tech news today is that Mullvad VPN has gone mask-off about being the major funding source for the Swedish Orebro party, who are racist nationalists. unfortunately all discussion of this is occurring on fucking Mastodon instances i can barely load

if you are a mullvad customer (as i am) and want to get out, here is guidance from this guy

If you don't want your Mullvad fees going to fund neo-Nazis - or @mozilla VPN fees, which is rebranded Mullvad - cancel and get a refund immediately that's whose "free speech" the official account is talking about here, and that's where your fees go to EDIT: Mullvad has a 14 day refund policy. But the message below is a direct call to ask for a refund if you don't want to give money to Nazis. If Mullvad refuse a refund, call your consumer protection agency. And reverse credit card charges on the basis of deceptive refund policy representations. It's not like you ever want to be a Mullvad customer again. archive copy of Mullvad statement: https://web.archive.org/web/2026062717

I put a collar on him since you can wag his tail. :)
