Mushrooms n' Bones

i actually do think you should draw clocky trans people. no i don’t think they’re a stereotype or caricature. i think that’s a horrible thing to say about real people who exist. i think that’s a horrible thing to say about my friends and my family. i want to see your art of a trans boy with curves and long hair and baby face because that’s me. i want to see your art of a tall trans girl with broad shoulders and facial hair because that’s my friend. stop being scared to draw the people you know.

“I’m not going to draw a clocky trans woman because that’s how TERFs draw them” i don’t think my friends should be forced to only see themselves in artwork made by TERFs and transphobes. They should get to see themselves lovingly drawn by other trans people.

"I asked chatgpt-" Well, I asked the Oracle of Delphi, and she told me that you're a little bitch, and you're facing an imminent death, so...

something that drives me insane on a relatively regular basis as a body jewelry understander is talking to people who have sensitive skin who are like "oh well I just can't wear any earrings without my ears getting inflamed" and I say "well what have you tried" and they say "well I've tried sterling silver and I've tried gold..." and it's like. ok. I don't know how gold and sterling somehow got spun by the jewelry industry as being especially good for sensitive skin but whenever I'm like "well have you tried implant grade titanium" they're always like "no....... but I've tried sterling silver... and it didn't work ..." like. I don't know how this narrative about sterling silver somehow got so strong but when they put pins in your fucking legs when you snap your leg in half are those pins made of sterling silver or are they made of implant grade titanium or surgical steel????????? HELLO. HI. YOU MIGHT BENEFIT FROM TRYING IMPLANT GRADE TITANIUM I AM JUST SAYING

to clarify this is not because of any particular thing about sterling silver being an alloy or anything like that. it's because some people's piercings think that they are open wounds and there are only certain kinds of metal that are rated to put in open wounds. the jewelry industry largely does not understand that this is not the same as "having sensitive skin" which I think is the real root of the problem. the body piercing industry understands that we are talking about open wounds. the mainstream jewelry industry does not want to think about that because it's yuckyicky so they keep trying to sell you regular metal to put inside the hole in your body that your body thinks is an open wound. which doesn't work. this is my hypothesis

Guys look how pretty this cat is

every time i say velociraptor is very important to imagine a turkey-sized predatory bird and not the weird lizard thing from jurassic park

If they still existed we would have domesticated them so fast

I would provide her so much enrichment. Veloci-patio

and I feel comfortable reimagining Jesus as a black trans guy rabbit furry Martyr who condemns fascist America. the world is scary and overt bigotry and hatred is getting more spotlight. I poured that fear and anxiety into art and created a picture that give me hope and others too, even if it's extremely raw.

fuck America, and the countries it's hurt too, every minority in this world will seek peace and freedom soon, even if it will take years.
