It's so funny cause i've been going down such a rabbit hole into disturbing fictional media (Such as Tender is the Flesh, Dogtooth, Taxidermia, and now In the Miso Soup) and understanding that these books and movies are made with the intention of picking apart the seedier/ugly parts of the world in a raw stomach churning way (which it succeeds I turn green very quickly reading/watching some of these) but the first thing I think is "Man. Maybe I'm not writing fucked up enough"

I can no longer feel the infinite sadness

Just so we’re clear, if I point out that you did something racist, that’s not the same as me thinking you’re irremediably terrible. You did a racist thing.

You think you don’t do racist things, homophobic things, etc? You do. I caught myself in fat phobic and homophobic lines of thinking/speech just this morning. I’m fucking gay married. Nothing disqualifies you from acting in a way that reflects the society you exist in. We are obliged to fight it. Why not fight it in honesty and with camaraderie?

This is an amazing resource, not only for artists, but for writers too! I love this!

{ID - tweet from @/Iron_Spike that reads, “Black Hair for Non-Black Artists: a Cheat Sheet Thread. Hi, folks! Just spur-of-the-moment decided to put together some reference for folks who want to draw/model black characters in their work, but arent confident they won’t make simple, obvious mistakes w/r/t black hair.

@creatingblackcharacters !!!

Not all heroes wear capes, sometimes they publish questionable card games

because I'm alive and I don't know what else to do, I'm gonna love everyone as much as I possibly can

"here's my original character, Man Who Sucks But Loves His Daughter Very Much" and it's a guy who worships at the altar of patriarchal violence and the woman he uses as an excuse and an effigy to absolve him

well i think his daughter should tell him to kill himself
