Humoresque of a Little Tooni

@misstooni

She/her | 35 | May 29 I'm Hannah! I draw, write, and sew. I like ghosts, mysteries, video games, and sweets. I try to keep this blog a positive space and reblog things that make me smile!

more people would exercise if this culture didn't make it absolute hell

I teach martial arts. we play games with the little kids. they swordfight with noodles and throw foam balls at each other. in the summer, we take them out into the parking lot with water guns. in the winter, we have snowball fights.

the teenagers get swords and staffs and practice knives. we teach them moves from marvel movies that they ask about. they get squirt guns and snowball fights too. we let them goof off and climb the support beams and charge directly at each other in padded suits.

sometimes parents say they miss doing things like that. I tell them, "stay for an adult class. just try it out." we build obstacle courses and let them mess around with training rifles. they chat while sparring. we scream and cheer for them when they're in the middle of a circle. and then we send them out to the parking lot with squirt guns and snowballs.

it's exercise. it's healthy. it's an important life skill. and it's fun as fuck.

This is one of the forgotten but imo super harmful symptoms of diet culture-exercise being relegated to weight loss rather than jist enjoying using and being in your body.

Don’t like the gym? Ok, go find a line dancing club. A Tai Chi class. Play Just Dance every day. Arrange a tag football team. Go to a trampoline park.

Using our bodies shouldn’t be a chore assigned in shame.

Friendly reminder that you should

  • Write that fic
  • Draw your OC
  • Redesign that blorbo
  • Plan that comic how you want
  • Create the content you want to see
  • Be cringe
  • Be free

The only thing that matters is you having fun! Not what others think!

does anyone else remember when peoples talking point against asexuality being a queer identity was to make up a cisgender heterosexual but aromantic man who wanted to get in to all the lgbt society meetings or was that just an embarrassing thing people i knew did

the question was always "do you really think that guy should be allowed in" and it was like.... first off you made him up to get mad at for some reason. second off yeah he can come in if he wants. hes aromantic of course he can. other stuff doesnt matter to me. what are you a cop. why are you policing peoples identities so hard

Even if someone totally straight and cisgender decides to start sitting around the queer folk and hanging out... literally how is this a bad and terrible thing? Maybe they're questioning. Maybe someone they love just came out and they're trying to learn more. Maybe they're lonely and saw a group of objectively cool people and sat down with them. Who even fucking cares.

So what if they sit in on a meeting about people discussing what life is like being queer. You know what happens when they do? They learn about what life is like for queer folk. How exactly is this a bad thing? How? What is being damaged here?

Generally the logic was "well, if he's a cis man who doesn't want love and just wants to fuck he's going to hit on everyone and make them uncomfortable", which as a strain of logic kind of requires thinking that sexual harassment is a sort of sexual orientation possessed by cishet men and nobody else, and that queer people do not and can not sexually harass people. And like... No.

throwback to when I was working at my desk with Cu Rùa on my shoulder and suddenly heard a loud and abrupt fart… I genuinely was so startled at the volume of it and thought it was my dog but she was nowhere to be found. I turned my head and there he was, tail pointed down near my ear… next to a large pile of shit

“what was he doing on your shoulder” all of the animals that I’ve ever owned have had an affinity for my neck and shoulders. the perfect perching spot

"what was he doing on your shoulder?"

Shitting, next question

Ice cold takes from a Transgender Woman:

  • Not all Men are evil
  • Everyone has the capacity for evil
  • Transgender Men are men
  • Transgender Women are women
  • Excluding Cisgender Men from your spaces requires Transgender Men to out themselves if they want to engage (Same for Women)
  • Anyone can be Non-Binary, there is no "look" or requirement
  • Non-binary masculine presenting people should be welcome in queer spaces, many are just treated as men and predators
  • Non-binary feminine presenting people should be welcome in queer spaces without being seen as "Woman-Lite"
