Miss Juneteenth, Houston (1983)

For three decades, Daniel S. Williams documented Juneteenth and Emancipation Day celebrations across the country — which included parades, cookouts, and other gatherings.

Happy Birthday, the Ultimate lifeform!

Back then the father of said violent candidate was riling people up against the “tree people”. Fred, Barney, and other soldiers fought what they believed to be a defensive measure against the tree people. Turns out, it was actually an invasion, in order to kill off the tree people and take over their forest to build Bedrock.

That’s what Fred means when he says he and Barney participated in a genocide. They literally did.

Equiping an armor tutorial

I'm in the middle of this year's Junicorn daily challenge, and you can see all previous drawings I did from 2024 and 2025 on this blog if you are so inclined.

Dreamin’

SO the story here…did I just draw a 9 page comic just for sonic to hold shadow’s hand? yes bc shadow is that dramatic LOL there’s a lotta symbolism in this so lemme fill ya in-

–

-this is set sometime in the future

-sonic is still very much alive 

-BUT there is still bit of rift between them & that’s kinda sonic’s doing instead of shadow’s 

–

the snow in way represents shadow’s loneliness and how cold it can become out there when u are alone…rouge & omega are also still around BUT shadow…has been separating himself from them more and more 

when sonic left again, it was beginning to get colder

the cave represents shadow’s heart. it’s hard to find and you gotta go deep to even find it (could even become a bit chilly when trying to find it) but sonic found it. it’s beautiful and warm inside. do u even know that urself shadow?

the pool represents the depth of shadow’s heart. there’s only a few stars in there, not many to show that despite what he may say or do, he still cherishes those he cares about. sonic included. (And ye it’s a bit of an SA2 ref too with it looking like space )

& yea shadow has feelings for sonic. has for a PRETTY long time but…it just hasn’t been acted on. they dance around each other constantly, & the difference between the sonic in his dreams & the sonic he knows in rl is that a secret part of him wants sonic to reach out to him further…but considering how sonic is when it comes these feelings, he hasn’t acted on them either. he remained flighty…despite having feelings for shadow too. (but shadow doesn’t know that. or perhaps not to a particular level)

Last week, the Trump administration quietly released a sweeping new federal rule that would use funding threats to force institutions across the country to reject transgender people. The 400-page proposed regulation would codify the administration's anti-trans executive orders into binding federal policy, imposing a blanket prohibition on federal funds going toward "gender ideology"

The proposed rule, formally titled "Regulation for Federal Financial Assistance," rewrites the government-wide framework governing all federal grants across every agency. Among its most consequential provisions, it requires that before a federal grant recipient can receive money, the award must pass a "pre-issuance review" conducted by a political appointee—not a career expert or peer reviewer—to ensure it is "consistent with applicable law, Federal agency priorities, and the national interest." The regulation explicitly instructs these appointees to screen for "denial by the recipient of the sex binary in humans or the notion that sex is a chosen or mutable characteristic." [...] An institution that acknowledges transgender people exist—through its policies, its training, its healthcare, its bathroom access, its HR procedures, its name-change processes—could be deemed to "deny the sex binary" or to “support the notion that sex is mutable” and have its federal funding blocked.

2. Never use ace bandages/belts/tape/etc to bind.

3. Do not sleep in your binder.

4. Do not wear your binder for long periods of time.  I’ve seen 8 hours mentioned as the max amount of time.  Learn to read your body.  Some people cannot handle binding for even 8 hours but ignore the signs and injure themselves.

5. Whenever you take your binder off give a few big coughs, this well help to break up any fluid that may have settled in your lungs.

when i was young and stupid, I used duct tape to bind. NEVER EVER DO THIS CHILDREN. i couldn’t breathe, i could barely move, it cut into me so hard that sometimes i bled, it was so hot i got blisters, i would sometimes cry because of how much pain i was in, and it left my breasts numb in some places because of how tight it was. It killed nerve endings in my chest.

GC2B is pretty standard nowadays, they’re breathable and they go on and come off so much easier than Underworks ever did

Transtape is another option, this does NOT go all the way around your ribcage!!! It may be difficult to use if you have sensitive skin because it is an adhesive, to protect your nipples you fold a square of toilet paper and that on with a little piece. To put it on you lean forward, swoop ‘em to the side and stick (use more as needed) this can be used to go swimming and shower and is sleep safe*

DONT buy cheap binders off of amazon!!!! The materials will not move with you, they will restrict your ribs (and the sizing charts often suck ass) which means you can get hurt and will have to take a break from binding to heal!!

You don’t want to take a break from binding because it gives you the relief and comfort you need to function??? THEN PLEASE BE SAFE!!! The safer you are the more often you will be able to do it.

For those of you who can’t afford or cannot safely get a binder at this time:

sports bras are your friends, the ones without padding. Double up, one forward one back.

We all know hoodies help, but it gets hot as fuck in the summer

Compression shirt, they’ve got them for swimming and working out
