I may not know my flowers...

*lets go of microaggression to not out himself*

*puts up with microaggression to not out himself*

*doesn't comment on microaggression to not out himself*

*denies an entire part of his early life and refuses to comment on or relate to anything having to do with a uterus or experiencing sexism as to not out himself*

like bro this isnt privilege. denying whole parts of my identity isn't a privilege. its in fact very isolating and othering and doesn't feel good. I dont feel like im getting away with anything, I feel like no one in normal working life can ever truly know who I am as I have to constantly edit and filter myself.

Everyone say thank you to trans mascs for showing us a version of masculinity born from joy and desire instead of just through coercion

Everyone say thank you to all people outside of the cis gender binary for showing us a version of gender born from joy and desire instead of just through a simple frame work in which our oppressor have used to kill, erase, and censor us.

Fiona is married so it's time to reunite with her parents. But instead of marrying a prince, she's married to an ogre. Not just that, but she's also an ogre. (Yes everyone knew she would sometimes be an ogre but that was when she was a child, she didn't know she would be an ogre for the rest of her life, and besides once she met the right prince she would stop being an ogre. She was supposed to stop being an ogre.)

But okay they're both ogres. We can still ask about when they'll have children because even if they're ogres they can still have kids, right? That's what married princes and princesses do so naturally that's what everyone does. Even if ogres might not be great parents (I've heard that ogres eat their young, is that something you people do?) it's still something that should be discussed.

And okay you can stay in Fiona's childhood bedroom filled with all the reminders that hey, everyone thought she was just a princess and princesses marry princes. Her toys left out from the last time she played with them. The prince slays the ogre. The princess offers a token of gratitude for slaying the ogre. Fiona wrote Mrs. Fiona Charming a million times in her diary because what else was she supposed to grow up to be?

And Harold you have to fix this, your country can't be ruled by ogres. You were unfit to rule when you were a frog but I changed you, I made you better, I made you a prince. You know how this works. Think of your daughter's safety.

2026 - 2025 - 2024 - 2023

in spite of it all, happy 2026 pride.

you can download current and past hi-res versions of these over at my ko-fi (ok to print for personal use): https://ko-fi.com/mxmorgan/shop/freedownloads

you can also snag shirts here which go to various orgs: https://mxmorgan.threadless.com/collections/pride

these get reposted a whole lot from here to reddit to twitter to tiktok and on and on, and i don't personally care whether or not i'm credited. i made these for everyone to use, enjoy, and find meaning in them. i appreciate folks who do credit me, but if able, please at least link to the threadless shop in the previous post - folks can get an official shirt where 90% of earnings go to trans led orgs focused on mental health (which is an important matter in general, but very personal to me) and not from a scam bot site selling AI-churned maga garbage where you probably won't get one anyway. i also suggest downloading the files from my ko-fi - they are free/PWYW and you can use them to make your own shirt, patch, embroidery project, whatever. tips are always nice, cuz i do like a pizza now and then, but never required for download.

🎨 Introducing Cherry Create — Anyone Can Make CC! (Windows Only Currently)

Hey everyone! I've been building something I'm so excited to finally show you: Cherry Create! A desktop app that makes creating Sims 4 custom content genuinely easy, even if you've never modded a single thing in your life.

Think of all of your favorite CC creating programs, fused into one app, but designed so anyone can use it. Open a .package, edit it, save it. That's the whole workflow. No juggling five programs, no tutorials required.

✨ What it can do:

🖌️ A full layer-based editor — brushes, eraser, bucket fill, blur/smooth/smudge, text, stamps, and a smart Color Replace that recolors anything in one click while keeping all the folds and shading. Layers, blend modes, masks, adjustments, unlimited undo, everything you'd expect from a real paint program.

🧊 Realtime 3D preview — watch your edits appear on the actual model instantly, with studio lighting presets.

🖍️ Paint directly on the 3D model — yes, really. Drag on the mesh and it paints onto the texture in exactly the right spot. No more guessing where the UV lands.

💄 Full makeup & skin support — lipstick, blush, eyeliner, skin details, and skin overlays, edited live on a 3D face & body, with base skin templates for every age.

🎭 Swatches done right — recolor, duplicate, and delete swatches for CAS and Build/Buy, with color chips and an eyedropper.

📸 Thumbnail Studio — design your CC's in-game catalog icon right from the 3D preview: background, lighting, even add text.

🏷️ Catalog control — set name/description/price for Build/Buy items and age/gender availability for CAS.

💾 Project files & PNG export — save your whole session and pick up later.

🎁 The best part: you don't need to understand a single technical thing. If you can use a coloring app, you can make CC. Open → edit → save → done. 💙

Your support is what makes this possible thank you for being here. :) More coming soon: gradient tools, masks UI, auto-recolor variants, and lots more! If you have any questions, troubleshooting or ideas, PLEASE message me for support!

Anyways! HERE'S YOUR HANDY GUIDE TO WHAT CAN COUNT AS EYESTRAIN! I'm pulling this straight from the Artfight rules page about what needs to be labeled and filtered as eyestrain because it's VERY helpful and VERY accurate! I also know not everybody has an AF account and might not always have access to this handy guide, and this is an important resource; That's why I'm sharing it here! (under the cut)

PLEASE TAKE THIS SERIOUSLY!!! THIS IS ABOUT THE HEALTH AND SAFETY OF OTHERS!!!

This plush bird was sealed within the frozen barrows of Pazyryk, Siberia, for more than two millennia, where a unique microclimate enabled it to be preserved. The permafrost ice lense formation that runs below the barrows provided an insulating layer, preventing the soil from heating during the summer and allowing it to quickly freeze during the winter; these conditions produced a separate microclimate within the stone walls of the barrows themselves, thereby aiding in the preservation of the artifacts inside.

This is just one of the many well-preserved artifacts that have been found at Pazyryk. These artifacts are attributed to the Scythian/Altaic cultures.

Over fifty years of data show a peak in PFAS (also known as "forever chemicals") content in seabird eggs in the 90s, followed by a decrease as regulations went into effect. The most recent findings show a 70% decrease of most common PFAS.

We are making genuine progress! Producers are dramatically altering how much they use PFAS and how much gets released in effluent, but also there's a lot better understanding of how to remove PFAS from the environment!
