a changeling child, grown

(this isn't at you prev, it's just something that comes up for me) it bugs me that the mainstream use of bara doesn't already include fat & chubby. the only reason to not include all big masculine bodies in the big masculine bodies genre is anti-fat bullshit /rant

A "hobo nickel" is a type of folk art where artists carve and modify small-denomination coins, most famously the Buffalo nickel minted between 1913 and 1938.

Bad day to be a strategic bomber.

Each dead American troop means at least a few innocent children are not getting bombed overseas in America's imperialist wars. May many more follow them!

OK, calling it now: I bet this was a 'can we let AI do everything on our aircraft?' test and the answer is 'no you fucking can't'.

Hi everyone! This is an illustrated guide I made as part of my co-admining work at The Middle Eastern Feminist on Facebook! It will be published there shortly.  The technique that is displayed here is a genuine one used in psychology - I forgot the name and couldn’t find it again so if you know about it, feel free to tell me! Some could say: “Yes but you can use that technique for instances of harassment other than Islamophobic attacks!”, and my reply is: Sure! Please do so, it also works for other “types” of harassment of a lone person in a public space!! However I’m focusing on protecting Muslims here, as they have been very specific targets lately, and as a French Middle Eastern woman, I wanted to try and do something to raise awareness on how to help when such things happen before our eyes - that way one cannot say they “didn’t know what to do”!  I’d like to insist on two things: 1) Do not, in any way, interact with the attacker. You must absolutely ignore them and focus entirely on the person being attacked! 2) Please make sure to always respect the wishes of the person you’re helping: whether they want you to leave quickly afterwards, or not! If you’re in a hurry escort them to a place where someone else can take over - call one of their friends, or one of yours, of if they want to, the police. It all depends on how they feel! For my fellow French-speakers: I will translate it in French and post it on my page as soon as I can :) Please don’t hesitate to share this guide as it could push a lot of people to overcome bystander syndrome!! Lots of love and stay safe! PS: I you repost this cartoon of mine on twitter or instagram, please add me in the post so I can see it, with @itsmaeril :)

The more you know! :D

Go dance and get fisted. Fucking iconic.

It’s a net profit of information. 12/10 post

Poster I made for my local Pride parade. Quote is from Guillermo del Toro's/Mary Shelly's Frankenstein.

Humanizing: Hey, I’m sorry that I blew up like that earlier. In the moment I felt really attacked and overwhelmed and I reacted badly, but I know you didn’t mean to offend me with what you said, so that behavior is on me.

If you're diabetic, you don't have to eat the honey glazed ham that will send you into a coma (their example). But you also can't yell at the person offering it and accuse them of trying to kill you. You can just say "thanks, but my body can't handle that kind of sugar intake, so I'll pass"

re ehrc guidance. which is not legally binding.

that's a very good addition actually, a solid "you want me to ask people's kids about their genitals? can i have that in writing?" should make upper echelons very uncomfortable.
