Saw this on Twitter and I obligatory need to share it

So she actually said that she does not see the appeal in Senshi at all and that the panty shots weren’t intended to be horny - she just has a neighbor who looks kind of like him and does laundry in his underwear. Which she finds kind of weird and offputting, and put into his character to be funny.

But that’s the thing. She doesn’t exaggerate or grotesqueify or alter people’s bodies to fit some standard. (Except insofar as she draws different species differently, and those are exquisitely practiced to ensure they have the same diversity of appearances that humans do.) She just presents people exactly as they are, complexities and oddities and all.

It just so happens that when you present people exactly as they are, what you present will be beautiful and alluring to many. Even the things you yourself might find weird and offputting. Honestly I think it’s a touching example of how you don’t have to see the beauty in everyone for the beauty to be there, simple honesty is enough to let the wonder of people’s humanity shine through.

#i think we should put this post next to the interview where she said she doesn’t want to eat the food in the series cuz she’s a picky eater#and file them both under ‘you don’t know an artist from their work’#and maybe you don’t need to!#maybe all you need to know is that ryoko kui is Good At What She Does#idk I don’t like the implication that artists (and women especially?) can only create from personal life and feelings#some people have imagination and craft#kind of a tangent but. there you go.

no but you’re very correct

So, in Brazilian, USAmerican, and LGBT+ politics news, transgender Brazilian congresswoman Erika Hilton has received from the USA a visa marking her gender as male.

Hilton canceled a trip she was going to make to the US this month, where she was going to participate on Saturday (12) in a panel at the Brazil Conference, and says she will take action against US President Donald Trump at the UN (United Nations) because she considers the case to be transphobic and disrespectful of her Brazilian civil records.

UPDATE: fellow transgender Brazilian congresswoman Duda Salabert has been informed her visa will also register her as male.

“More than transphobia, there is a question of national sovereignty involved: it is not up to the US government to disagree with and refute Brazil’s documents,” she said.

Im gonna be so real can yall actually talk about ways we can support trans women in the UK instead of giving all the attention to fucking JKR. I already know that Harry Poter sucks, I wanna know how to actually HELP people. Something something you have to love the oppressed more than you hate the oppressor

Instead of focusing on a TERF who we’ve known about for at least 8 years and giving her more fucking attention, we should focus on learning about and supporting groups like TransActual, a trans/NB run organization in the UK supporting and fighting for the rights of trans and NB people (tumblr straight up won’t embed the link, suspicious)

Im a usamerican and it took me literally googling “how to help trans women UK” to find them. The people on tumblr in 2025 aren’t going to stop engaging with jkr no matter what you say, please put your effort elsewhere

Trans Rights petitions in the UK

Following the ridiculous and inhumane news out of the UK yesterday, two out of the top 3 petitions on the UK parliament petition site relate to trans rights:

Screenshot of petition website. Title: Popular petitions Legally enshrine the right of adults to physically transition using NHS services: 1,378 signatures in the last hour Allow transgender people to self-identify their legal gender: 1,046 signatures in the last hour Ban fossil fuel advertising and sponsorship: 280 signatures in the last hourALT

Let me point you in the right direction!

1. Legally enshrine the right of adults to physically transition using NHS services

2. Allow transgender people to self-identify their legal gender

Who can sign?

  • Anyone living in the UK, regardless of citizenship
  • UK citizens living anywhere in the world
