#narth

A lizard creature called narthex with unusual dress sense seems far too enthusiastic about this job. from 2015, maybe. garbage, but well-executed garbage! I apparently have done a lot of that.

Tormar is a Needlix and a very close friend with Tok and Alan.  She is more of a gearhead, having a love for mechanics and machines, sometimes working on cars and vehicles in her spar time.  She also has an interest in music so she is learning how to be a drummer.

SEND ME AN ASK MEME OR A PROMPT OR ANYTHING JUST FKN TALK TO ME

This is a concept drawing for another Team Prototype OC I was thinking on. This guy is an alien known as a Narth, and he also plays the game ‘Muck Warfare’ like Kaz, specializing in “dualies”.

I just got the song out of my head and now it’s back in. Thanks.

“The other chicken-and-egg problem of Sherkat’s dismissal deals with conservative ideology. Many have dismissed my story with four simple words: “But you are conservative.” Yes, I am. How did I get that way? I moved to the right wing because I lived in precisely the kind of anti-normative, marginalized, and oppressed identity environment that the left celebrates: I am a bisexual Latino intellectual, raised by a lesbian, who experienced poverty in the Bronx as a young adult. I’m perceptive enough to notice that liberal social policies don’t actually help people in those conditions. Especially damning is the liberal attitude that we shouldn’t be judgmental about sex. In the Bronx gay world, I cleaned out enough apartments of men who’d died of AIDS to understand that resistance to sexual temptation is central to any kind of humane society. Sex can be hurtful not only because of infectious diseases but also because it leaves us vulnerable and more likely to cling to people who don’t love us, mourn those who leave us, and not know how to escape those who need us but whom we don’t love. The left understands none of that. That’s why I am conservative.”

A gif I made in animation class of one of the player characters, Nartheu. He's also in the comics (yes I'm working on comics and it's so much work but I love it)

Conversion therapy is a practice based on the false knowledge that being gay is a mental illness or something that can be “fixed.” Being gay is something that isn’t necessarily a choice but something you are. Its who you are. Changing who you are is scarring and something that is not easily done. Especially when its your parents choice to make that change in your life. When its your parents who are forcing you to go through life-changing and life-altering therapy to make you “straight again.” If anything, conversion therapy should be a choice made by the person who will endure it, not their parents. Conversion therapy doesn’t just end when you leave the therapists office, its something that that person carries around for the rest of their life. It’s a constant reminder to them that the person they are is not what they should be. But they can’t change it.
