my BOOOOYYYYY 😭😭😭

a medieval style digital drawing of an androgynous brown-skinned knight on horseback on a hill, stabbing a long gold spear into a blue dragon on the ground. the knight has a gold halo behind their head and wears a suit of silver armor with a nonbinary flag striped tunic and a trans flag as a cape. their horse is white, with blue tack with trans pride trim. there is black gothic text at the top and bottom of the image reading “A world without trans people has never existed and never will.” there’s an ornate pale blue border around the image, filled with pink and blue scrollwork, gold hearts filled with colorful flowers, a smiley bat, two smiley moles, and two smiling frogs holding up trans flags.

a world without trans people has never existed and never will

i like sonic 3 a very normal amount

my body is remembering that deep down in its very core it is a shadow the hedgehog fanboy and sonic 3 awoke it like a sleeper agent

No matter how much skill you acquire, drawing reveals something indelible about yourself that maybe even you don't comprehend. You're confessing, not flexing. We're connecting with your vulnerability as much as your talent. Hiring a robot to spackle over those faults is a cosmic goof.

somewhere along the way i got the idea that i had to make sure everything i drew was "good" or new or challenging in some way, but sometimes all i really wanna do is just draw the exact same sonic head looking left 50 times because doing that is just *fun* and i want to let myself have that again 😭

i think i fell out of love with art because i forgot about the base animal pleasure of drawing the exact same thing 50 times and allowing myself to feel the dopamine that gives u

one very annoying thing about the death of games media and the rise of the youtube/streamer influencer as the primary pillar of game related criticism and so on is that it is weirdly fucking difficult to find a simple explanation of what a popular game is and if it is any good

The persnickety part of me died the first time I self published a book. Doubly so once I started working professionally in production.

Everyone says it's a miracle that anything gets made but ITS A MIRACLE THAT ANYTHING GETS MADE. Nothing makes itself, someone has to care to finish any project

god please let the AI bubble burst soon, i know it's going to take half the economy with it i'm just sick of every tech product i use begging me to try their shitty fucking AI content generation

The idea that history passively bends towards justice has deradicalized so many people, so let me reradicalize y'all.

HISTORY ONLY BEND TOWARDS JUSTICE IF YOU !!ACTIVELY!! FIGHT FOR IT AND !!MAINTAIN!! IT!

You never get to rest. Ever. You stay vigilant or you lose it.

staring at my cats in extrme jealousy because they dont know there was an election

Do not obey in advance. Resist. Do not offer an oppressive government what it wants. Do not anticipate its needs and offer up what you think it wants. To do so teaches power what it can do.

haunted by the time i quoted hey andy sweetie in the discord call in its entirety and NO ONE KNEW WHAT IT WAS FROM

now i just have to go to work on monday again like i didnt experience an entire week long physically exhausting and emotionally traumatizing event cool cool cool cool

im glad that after having been thoroughly entrenched in the evangelical church/christian private school system for all of my formative years, the one core belief i hung onto from all that shit is that people are inherently worthwhile and you dont have to do or be anything to be deserving of love

today should be a national holiday. i shouldnt have to work on a day when i have to worry about getting rickrolled in the year of our lord 2024

nice try but i won’t let you make me harden my heart to the world you dumb bitch

fine dining

Years ago when that "I forced an AI to watch 300 hours of x" guy was posting fake AI transcripts, I was annoyed because a) they were misrepresenting what AI could actually do to a credulous audience, and b) dude wouldn't admit they're fake even when asked. Same thing here, but with a lawsuit twist

as we come up on the election year, remember:
every time you say you want to move to canada, you owe a brown person in your community $100

goodnight and i love u to the viera in ul'dah who /pet me and then screamed and ran away when i blew him a kiss back

cannot stop thinking about how fucking good godzilla minus one was

I think another annoying but less frequently discussed aspect of book bannings is the undue administrative burden it’s meant to create. It’s supposed to make being a teacher or a librarian feel like more trouble than it’s worth. It’s in line with how often teaching salaries are barely livable.

one of the funnier book to screen transformations is frankenstein's monster being a silent, lurching creature when in the books he just cannot stop giving melodramatic monologues? he talks SO MUCH about like the ineffable human spirit & poetry and the movie monster is like "gruhhhhhhh"

im so fucking happy,, i woke up from anesthesia and didn't even have a reaction to my chest bc it just felt right. it's just the right shape now! this is what my body already was in my mind

just came out of top surgery hell yeah fuck yeah hell yeah boys lets fuckin go
