Did a thing yesterday. I love her. 😭💕

Forgot I had an account here oops. Here's a silk shine I did a little bit ago.

Israel started this conflict with an unprovoked surprise attack, using diplomatic negotiations as cover, and just dropped bombs on a central Tehran apartment building killing more than 60 civilians according to Al Jazeera.

Y'know of all things to take place on a slow Thursday I didn't expect DSBM band drama to be one of them.

I can't communicate my needs without feeling like the scum of the earth. Even when my needs are completely understandable.

I hate it here.

BREAKING: LA solidarity protesters in Austin are occupying JJ Pickle Federal Building, which houses local ICE processing center

Leather as an identity is all about embracing yourself authentically. So transphobic leatherfolk are really fucking weird, IMO.

Break me down again
Desperate, blind servitude
Teach me to want it

The painting titled Judith Beheading Holofernes by Artemisia Gentileschi. The painting portrays the moment that Judith beheads Holofernes, mid act of sawing his head off with a sword. Judith grasps his hair as he lies face up on his bed and cuts the sword across to behead him while blood spurts out of his neck. Another woman helps hold him down as he attempts to resist.

Some guy on Twitter made a point of announcing that thousands upon thousands of men are descended from rapists, and we women "aren't going to like it when [they] stop asking nicely."

Which, you know, surprise surprise brother, but you're also not going to like it when we stop refusing nicely.

Rose tinted moon
Gazing above mountain's peak
It's true, they speak of me
When no one listens
Except the trees

I am forever grateful for leather women.

Elder leatherwomen carry so much history and experience to the table. I adore them.

Show me a picture on your phone that has your energy that isn't a selfie

a screenshot of a gradient backed text image with the word FALSE superimposed on the top. the text (which, again, is misinformation) reads: As Trump shuts down the suicide hotline, Canada has broadcasted their national hotline which now has a toll-free American version: 1-877-330-6366

please stop sharing this. it is completely misinformation. it is putting vulnerable people at risk.

1. the number given is for the Canadian Trans Lifeline, not suicide hotline.

2. the US Trans Lifeline, 877-565-8860, is still operational

3. Trans Lifeline is not part of the US 988 network

a black and white typography edit that reads "dykes make the day brighter" in all caps. to the right of the text are two interlocked carabiners. on the carabiners are a heart-shaped lock and two leather charms. one leather charm has two intersecting venus symbols. the other charm has the transgender symbol. the entire image is textured to look photocopied.

another one for lesbian visibility week <3

Excluding people from your community because they don't fit YOUR experience of queer identity is cop behavior.

Quit your bitchin', pick up a brick, and throw it at those who actually wanna kill us.

A pair of freshly shined combat boots. The laces are golden brown.

Polishing my boots and I have a little bit of service toe peaking through 🥹

God I love it when leather gets worn in

*Licks your boots as a Dom* 😈

This Good Friday, remember that Gabumon died for your sins.

Patched a teeny divot on my boot.

Took two hours and was frustrating as fuck but I did it.

The vengeful and hateful god has bestowed us a glorious day of celebration

The lesson from this whole Signalgate catastrophe?

This administration will never, ever take responsibility for their mistakes, even when they endanger people. Especially when they endanger people.

And it's the American people who will suffer.
