cutebunny world!!

why is that? if it was just a matter of report inundation, of them being swamped and not getting around to it, then why are reports against transfems seemingly immune to those delays?

Me: I am literally just doing my job. Everyone else is slacking off.

Kiss it Goodbye: special #2 - Pancakes

I’ve worked on these characters and their story in the past year, and I think I’m ready to finally show them online o/ What is this about? An original wlw love story with these two characters, Aruka and Yukimi! *cheers* I’ve posted a year ago that one ufo catcher comic, and I’m still surprised it got so much attention?? Thank you for validating my dumb gays ♥

So, hope you are excited because I am!! :D

@voidcatdoll "cramps are caused by muscles"

No, cramps are in your muscles, but period cramps are caused by the uterus releasing prostaglandins. If you do not have a uterus, you should not mysteriously get abdominal cramping regularly. That's a sign to see a doctor.

Your body *does* actually know that there's no womb, and will react accordingly. For example, in cis women without uteruses and ovaries, there is no monthly cycle or cramping.

I don't understand why trans women aren't being recommended more resources from post-hysterectomy cis women because those *do* tell a very different story than what you're being asked to accept, and are much more applicable to your bodies.

1. That's a woman with ovaries. Ovaries release hormones such as LH and FSH regardless of a uterus. This is why I specified in my initial post the following:

2. Who you should be researching for this information is post-menopausal cis women, because their experiences will be far more akin to those of trans women. The cramping experienced after menopause is not a period and does not occur on a monthly basis, it is often a result of minute hormone fluctuation and pelvic muscle flexibility. These cramps are a symptom of larger issues and often precede pelvic floor disorders.

why would cis women who have low estradiol levels be comparable to me, a woman who does monotherapy? I have more estrogen in my blood than you.

why do you insist on being aggressively ignorant and saying wrong things so loud? you need to be mad at how little you were taught about your own biology, not us.

cackling. here's the very first blood test I had (low is good for those of us on monotherapy)

it's so, so obvious to everyone outside your weird bubble when you're being a bigot. you did not even bother with reading the first paragraph of a wiki article here

In females, an acute rise of LH known as an LH surge, triggers ovulation and development of the corpus luteum. In males, where LH had also been called interstitial cell stimulating hormone (ICSH), it stimulates Leydig cell production of testosterone. It acts synergistically with follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH).

I'm currently staying at my sister's place, of which has a mold, ant, and leaking water problem. we've had to deal with ants crawling out of the walls three separate times this week, and it's become too much to deal with. the ants are crawling out of the outlets now. im trying to get money for her to help her move. moving costs plus fees and rent and whatever will probably be a lot so im. on my hands and knees asking for this

it's my kofi but that's just because her paypal is locked or something and she doesn't have a kofi. any amount helps. please

Cutting - in my opinion, the most labor intensive part of the process. The amount of time/effort needed varies depending on the pattern and if seam allowance is included or marked separately, but no matter what this process can not be done by machine. Each and every panel and piece of fabric that goes into a garment must be cut by hand by a person.

Pinning/clipping - pinning (or clipping) is the stage at which you align the pieces you are going to be stitching together and hold them together with — you guessed it! — either pins or clips. This can not be done by machine.

Stitching - the actual sewing. This can be done by a sewing machine, but that machine still needs to be operated by a human being.

Ironing/pressing - two words that mean the same thing. The iron itself is a machine, but once again, it needs to be operated by a human being.

Finishing - depending on the technique you use, there are certain finishing techniques that can only be done by hand. But, let’s assume we’re talking about fast fashion, which is usually just finished with a simple overlock/serger. Once again: these machines need to be operated by people.

These are just the basic steps to making a garment, and don’t include textile arts that I am not as knowledgeable about, such as weaving, knitting, and crochet. Also, it is important to note that there are a lot of things that can only be done by hand, such as certain stitches and decorative techniques.

Also, the machinery being operated in textile factories is not equivalent to a domestic sewing machine. We’re talking about one of these guys:

See that gray cylinder under the table, behind the knee pedal? That’s the motor. These machines can sew through your fingers bones and all and not even stop. The people in these factories and sweatshops are operating heavy machinery, and are subject to all the risk that comes with that in addition to all of the work I mentioned above.
