It's Halloween and it's also Slayer's birthday! I've been wanting to draw him foreeeevvvveeerrr (I hadn't draw him since...2007? Like I said, foreeeevvvveeerrr), and after seeing his new look for Strive, I knew I had to make it happen. For once, I have met a deadline please be proud of me

Just a bit more context to the first strip.

IM SO SICK OF THIS TWITTERIFICATION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think that all terfs who call themselves "females" should watch this video

In the United States the man known as the father of gynecology, J. Marion Sims, built the field in the antebellum South, operating on enslaved women in his backyard, often without anesthesia — or, of course, consent. As C. Riley Snorton has recently documented, the distinction between biological females and women as a social category, far from a neutral scientific observation, developed precisely in order for the captive black woman to be recognized as female — making Sims's research applicable to his women patients in polite white society — without being granted the status of social and legal personhood. Sex was produced, in other words, precisely at the juncture where gender was denied. In this sense, a female has always been less than a person.

I don't drink coffee and I've never wanted to, but that's obviously ~not normal~, so I'm curious why most people do start drinking it.

(and yes I am very aware that "it makes me feel better" and "love the way it smells" are top answers in why people do drink it XD)

as an Internet Old my knee-jerk is nowai?! but as a science human I’m so glad we finally have some data on this that we can use to push back against the idiotic notion that forced real name policies will somehow improve the quality of discourse according to people who apparently haven’t heard of farcebook

Anecdatally….this is very much my experience of being a person doing stuff on the internet where real human behaviors and communities were happening. I’ve had my share of changing usernames across internet fora? But not as many as you might think, considering that I’ve been online since about 1998. I’ve had this name so long that it’s very much a real name to me. I have conducted entire relationships using this name. I’ve created work using this name. I’d be distressed to have to change it or abandon it, or disassociate myself from things I’d written, and I would not do so lightly. And I’ve seen that to a greater or lesser extent, in the forums I’ve frequented—people get invested in their pseudonyms! It doesn’t mean they always behave well, but there’s a sort of inherent accountability that people will take on just for the take of being consistently recognized.

I have expanded on this post. This ecosystem needs to be studied extensively.

(And before anyone says it’s just an aiming problem - no. Like I apologize to the headlight aficionados clearly lusting after lighthouses, chernobyl, or the death star, but no amount of aiming is gonna fix the fact that the moment your car encounters any kind of hill, curve, or bump, my retinas are vaporized by a shade of blue-white previously known only to god. Just accept your limits and settle for a soft orange like the rest of us)
