>// 24 ✦ it/he/pup/star/plush ✦ gay/demi-aroace ✦ audhd + plural

⁠    +// i draw stuff. commissions currently closed- when they're open, i'll have links to info here

    +// i'm plural. most likely osdd, considering it's closer to a steven universe fusion situation than a moon knight one-- i'm the sum of all parts, but those parts are also their own individuals with things that set them apart from me. we usually act as one unit externally but sometimes one will come more into focus for one reason or another

>// some of my special interests/frequent hyperfixations include art, the stars, madness combat, lancer rpg (especially the in golden flame campaign by vexwerewolf), and ultrakill

>// i tend to talk a lot in the tags, i have just. a lot to say lmao

>// i generally try to make a point to tag common triggers, but if i miss something please don't hesitate to let me know. i typically tag weapons (especially firearms), flashing images/eyestrain, bugs, nudity, and blood/gore.

  • plushie- the "don't wanna be a person" one. uses exclusively it/its in third person (i.e. "it wants to play minecraft" instead of "i want to play minecraft")
  • shep- the caretaker/PDA wrangler (lol). the poor bastard tasked with getting us all to collectively lock in (and probably the one writing some of this, now that i think of it)
  • stardust- the little! and maybe a trauma holder. just a silly little guy! ambiguous age... we can't tell if they're a child or an adult, or just entirely ageless...
  • selkie- the 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝓪𝓴𝔂 alter. except hes no less asexual than the rest of us. honestly i think he just likes getting a reaction out of people...
  • spite- the newest. not even entirely sure he's. in here? but i'm pretty sure he's an anger holder. also a cat, funnily enough

pretty unbelievable that in spite of the insane level of flesh ripping edits to turn him into a human bird this is still instantly recognizable as Jerma

"Wow, this kink is so weird and extreme" and then you look inside and it's literally just "what if I never had to Be Responsible or Make Good Life Decisions ever again, and somehow this was a sex thing?"

Can't even boycott the last of us, can't even boycott captain america, SOME OF YOU CAN'T EVEN QUIT HARRY POTTER. And then you refuse to read some classic from a guy who's not even around to do any harm because "all the classics were written by white heterosexual men" WHICH IS NOT EVEN TRUE

some of you couldn’t even boycott the minecraft movie

who needs reality shows when you have Ceiling Bug Drama

brushing my teeth watching a gnat bumble around on the ceiling somehow juuust barely avoiding the bathroom spider's web each time while the spider is visibly trembling in frustration

i liked the mental image of this

white t girl i love you. and also do not forget that you are not the modern martyr for the oppressed voice. that's still black girls. it's always been black girls. stories of black martyrdom simply don't make it into the news cycle until the unrest caused by its reporting can be packaged as a "riot" segment between traffic reports. i know you suffer, but whatever you're experiencing, i beg you, when interacting with your community and building nuanced understandings of each other and the system which binds us, to not forget that a black tgirl has felt it 100 times worse before positioning yourself as an authority on all systems of oppression for having suffered unjustly at all. because you have suffered unjustly, but suffering unjustly as a white person means something so much different.

serenely reblogging this once more after deleting responses from white people saying "talking about this is actually unhelpful because im oppressed too" yeah i know. i wrote that down in the post i made, and i also wrote down why remembering the difference is important. did you read it?

there is no malice in my reminder. no "you need to do better", just a reminder. do not read it as such. i didn't write it as such.

again. i did not say you were not oppressed. this post is literally about how you are oppressed. it is a reminder that you are not the most oppressed person in the world, a way i've seen a lot of white transfems acting lately. maybe not even necessarily in a detrimental way, but in a way that definitely leans towards the "white is default" lane of thinking, which erases black suffering, which erases progress towards black safety. this, to me, is troubling, which is why i made this post. it's important when building solidarity within our community to understand who the most vulnerable of us are, because the safety of the most vulnerable of us will ultimately be the safety of all of us.

please do not be offended when you are reminded that your skin is white. im not calling you evil. im asking you to remain aware of yourself.

wow, look at that, a black trans woman saying the exact thing i said, except she said it a year ago and it didnt get as much traction.

"weird! i wonder why!" she exclaimed, whitely.

please read it. it's not long.

Thing is that I’m not the only Black trans woman writing theory on transfeminism, Black transfeminism, or trans intersectionality - I’m just lightskinned and won’t shut up so I’m one of the most visible ones, and crackers STILL get mad at me for saying the most basic-ass concepts like “white people are still white even if they’re otherwise marginalized”

In many cases, intracommunity racial intersectionality fails because given the choice between solidarity with nonwhite trans people and white people (trans or cis), white trans people will almost always side with other whites in the hopes of preserving a degraded position within white supremacy, because they internally see being “lesser” within whites supremacy but still above nonwhites as preferable to solidarity with nonwhites that loses them that positionality.

Oh, and by the way, that Supreme Court ruling is where that Harry Potter money goes.

This isn't even a slight exaggeration. JKR has openly given at least £70,000 to For Women Scotland to campaign against trans rights and fund this exact supreme court ruling. x x

Her anti-trans Crisis Centre in Edinburgh has the director of For Women Scotland on the Board of Directors. x

We can presume she's given more (financial) support off the record or in other ways.

Rowling consistently makes passive income on all Harry Potter products. Multiple sources have cited that Rowling earns anywhere between $50 million to a $100 million each year from royalties. Forbes estimated she earned $95 million in 2017 alone. x x x

It is a well-known fact that she earns net profit percentages on all her IP. Every time you buy any HP merch, from anywhere, she gets a cut. Every time you watch one of her films, even streaming or just on the tv, she gets a cut. Every time you visit Universal Studios or Harry Potter World, she gets a cut.

And she uses that money to do this. To strip trans rights at every opportunity.

This is where that Harry Potter money goes.

The UK Supreme Court has overruled Scottish Courts and declared the Scottish Government was wrong to include trans women in the definition of 'woman'.

Scottish Government needs to grow a spine and tell them to get fucked as far as I'm concerned. The UK can shove their 'Family of Nations' schtick up their arse.

This doesn't change anything about the average person's capacity to recognise people for who they are.

Gay love was recognised and existed long before equal marriage was recognised by law.

Biological essentialism is a fucking step back, and these hate groups funded by some of the worst cunts in society have been able to continually escalate their legal case until they've found a court who can undo everything else.

Important note here from @tgraywrites

Not a single trans person was heard from at any point by the Supreme Court before they made this ruling.
