another fuckin dogboy?

Last week I was at a meetup where I was the only transfem. I checked the groupchat when I arrived and there was a message from the organiser: "We have a newcomer called X, can you look out for him if you get there first?" I located X, introduced myself, sent a message to the chat say, "I have located X," and continued to talk to him until the organiser arrived. When the organiser arrived, she was not happy with me. It turned out my phone had autocorrected, "I have located X," to, "I had located X," which the organiser interpreted as me passive aggressively telling her that I had already done the thing she was asking about. Her conclusion: I was unreasonable and aggressive in responding to her reasonable request. My explaining what had happened didn't convince her otherwise.

A different occasion last week: in a local trans groupchat, a trans man sent a link to a drag event happening in our town. A few people said they were already going, some said they might go. Then a trans woman replied saying, "Thanks, but I don't really like drag." Her tone was immediately called into question. Her words were assumed to communicate: "I think you are a terrible person if you like drag," even though she never said that. Several non-transfems who had never even heard that drag might not be universally-beloved by everyone were upset to discover that fact. A trans woman simply saying she didn't like this thing became A Big Deal.

Meanwhile, at a different event again, a trans man told a group that he was straight and attracted to women, but he wouldn't feel comfortable bringing home an "AMAB woman" (yes he actually said that). It was quickly brushed over, and after he had left even trans women tried to defend him by saying "he probably didnt realise people would be offended" etc etc. In contrast to the examples above, he is not even aware that anyone was upset by what he said, never mind worrying about what consequences he might face.

Imagine you have a twelve year old child. Now imagine an adult man who draws toddler rape porn takes a recording of your kid’s voice, alters it so it sounds like your kid is giving a blowjob, then adds the recording of your kid to one of his childporn animations so pedophiles can masturbate to the sound of your kid choking on dick.

Now imagine the guy who did that to your kid gets hired by Cartoon Network to work on Ok Ko, and also gets roles as a character in popular games like Indivisible, Skull Girls and Friday Night Funkin’ because he’s buddies with the pedophilic developers. Would that be cool with you?

That’s Zone for you. If you don’t think it would be cool if Zone released a porno of your kid sounding like they’re choking on dick, then don’t support him. Because he did that to at the time 12 year old Jessie Flower in his Toph from Avatar porn animation.

Also, five minutes into this video Zone says he loves Shadman:

The guy who draws porn of real children.

(is shitman gonna be the next pedo to get hired by cartoon network? who knows lol not like they have any standards.)

Zone also jacks off to toddlers and has drawn porn of Rugrats and Lisa Simpson, along with Potemayo (sourced from rule34).

Zone himself stated that Peter Murray Hill was his name on his website, that’s why some of his porn is signed PMH.

Egoraptor and Harry Partridge are both giant fans of Zone, despite Zone being a pedophile who sexualizes real children, and have been featured on his youtube:

Vivziepop is also friends with Zone (credit to Wubboboi11 for alerting us to this):

The voice actor for Charlie from Hazbin Hotel, Elsie Lovelock, is also a Zone fan (again, credit to Wubboboi11):

Wubboboi11 writes that Joel Guerra, creator of the ENA series, also follows Zone and has drawn some weird stuff involving minors.

As of December 2022 Frederator (makers of Adventure Time) are still partnered with Zone and promoting him to children, despite Zone’s pedophilia and how they got called out as far back as 2017 by this blog for it:

Zone depicts himself as a young girl of indeterminable age and hires a pedophile approving woman to voice him. He’s not trans, he’s just a revolting adult man who knows he’ll get more attention for his pedophile art if he pretends he’s a girl who looks underage:

Zone-tan is just his shitty original character, it is not Zone. Zone himself considers them separate people, note how they have separate twitters and how he refers to Zone-tan as his mascot:

-no

-yes, intentionally

-yes, accidentally

-they might (i haven’t watched or read all of their media)

-they seem like they would but not canon

You are beautiful and wonderful and the event will be better because you're there.

Most of the people there are just as nervous as you are. You're gonna say something you think is unbelievably awkward (they won't notice). They are going to say something they think is unbelievably awkward (you won't notice). You can choose to spiral about it, or recognize that this mutual embarrassment is small potatoes. Were you friendly? Did you compliment them? That's all they'll remember.

Take your tits out. (remember sunscreen)

It'll be over before you know it, cherish it while it lasts.

Take plenty of pictures.

Make a sign! That will give you something to hold in your hands that isn't your phone.

Stop at the tables afterwards. Sign up for things. Take fliers. Start going to local events so that next year you're not going with new people, you're going with friends.

This is *your* community. It belongs to you. Act like it's yours for the taking.

Talk to the organizers. Thank them for what they do.

"This is why I try so hard to protect my trans sister, she has to deal with so much of this all of the time."

"And this is why I will never learn how to swim"

"I never go swimming, unless it's an event that explicitely mention that Trans Women are welcome"

hiiiiiii it's j 💕

yesterday i quit my job due to mistreatment from management. i was hoping to have a lot more time to figure things out before it got to this point, but things hit a fever pitch and i had to get out of there. i'm finding myself back at square one very suddenly, a lot more disabled than i was last time i had to job hunt, and frankly i'm. scared :')

i'm very thankful that my partner, their parents, and our roommates are willing to be flexible in helping cover some of my expenses while i rest and recover and find a new job, but i still need some extra support to make ends meet.

trying to build up savings so i can pay rent and our utility bills over the coming months is my main concern right now. any help at all is deeply deeply appreciated ... even just reblogging helps a ton. thank you all 💖

i currently have enough money in my bank account to pay for rent this month, but we need to get groceries this week and the utility bills are coming up as well.

setting my goal for making rent since i'll most likely have to pull from what i currently have saved to pay for everything else:
