Crypt Chick

I refer, of course, to the time Buzz Aldrin (age 72 at the time) cold-cocked a moon landing conspiracy theorist straight in his smug face after being accused of being a coward, liar, and thief.

Yes, someone was indeed dumb enough to tell a man so unafraid of death that he was willing to go into the void on a fragile explosive rocket, a coward.

Said dumbass was filming this confrontation as some sort of proof of moon fraud, but has instead captured this glorious moment of near-cosmic justice for us to loop for all time.

Acting like society has at all addressed or even contemplated transmisogyny for even a moment is a fucking joke.

Just continuing the hate train on this poor girl, which if she was talking about how misogynistic classic horror movies are against cissexual women, everyone would be lauding her for having the guts to stand up and say something.

“I’m not trying to be mean” No, but you are being transmisogynistic. Because she (op) *is* right, these conversations are not had outside of transfem spaces, and trans women everywhere have to sit in silence while y’all praise sotl, rhps, whatever the fuck. You know for a fact you are not discussing how these classic horror films harm trans women. For fucks sake, you probably don’t even know what transmisogyny is.

The use of that turn of phrase was never meant to apply to small creatives, it was meant to apply to mass media like TV or published fiction, things that are massively commercial enterprises rather than indie weirdos, as a part of his larger Thing of pop culture commentary.

The reason I bring that all up is because A) It's sad that the message of a person I consider a good friend keeps getting twisted...

If you're readin' it prudish, you're readin' it wrong.

Any comments I make about, say, Don Bluth or Chris Claremont's obvious peccadillos is intended from a place of demystification and appreciation, as well as exploration of the concept of creativity and how every part of a person's outlook and experiences play into it.

Because we all do it. We all write our own tastes into things from time to time.

So in the interest of calling myself out, here's a selection of my adult female OCs from the past couple of years. See if you can detect a pattern:

From "TyrannoMax", Maureen the Lizard Queen, BrontoSarah, Ms. Nice/Ms. Nautilus, PteroDarla, the Cold Shoulder, Aunt Acid. (to scale)

From "Farrah and the Familiars", the human and monster forms of Necrotari, Tilly Tepesh (Grandniece of Dracula), Ghoulatea, and Farrah Fyendlyne, and the Shockettes: Screamdream, Saccarene, and Venessa.

Misc characters: Queen Macheen, Hypnathize, Kitty Concolor, Captain Janet Starcraw

Melinoe Labs: Directer Maria Kleinheart, strain SCD3HeB/FeJ of the 9 out of 10 Solid Clone Dancers, and T.O.B.O.R. half of the time.

Sally Kleinheart, Sexbomb, KLE-Kat5.

DynoGuard (samples): Gloria Anning, LaBrea, Zara Hurlant

I could post a bunch of the Dæmes from Dæme-On, but I think the point is made. A lot of what makes you you comes out in your work, that includes that you find alluring, titillating, or psychosexually complex.

And I'm sure one could easily trace a lot of my "This better not awaken something in me" moments from media with veerrrry little trouble from this sliver of character designs.

This is just a variant on how Jack Kirby kept making powerful free-spirited goddess-characters based on his wife, or how Nagel's gals were all vamps, Akira Toriyama's thing for fierce-yet-hectoring women, or Sorayama's whole deal.

Who remembers these three?

A quick sketch of the main characters from #Cat’sEye, series by manga superstar #TsukasaHojo.

“Café owners by day, art thieves by night, the three sisters Hitomi, Rui, and Ai have high-risk lives outside of their day jobs.”

Porco Rosso is a feedist.

there is no conclusive evidence that the feminizing effects of injectable E are preferable to those of oral E, but injectable is safer long-term (years-long), so eventually switch to injectable. its cheaper also.

use a good anti-androgen. spiro will make you piss and pissed, because it sucks. take bica 50mg or cypro 12.5mg. misc notes on anti-androgens:

if you've already been on E for over a year and your E is above 250pg/mL and your T is below 50ng/dL, you won't really benefit from an anti-androgen. If you're earlier in your transition than that, or if your levels aren't looking like that, you can either increase your estrogen intake (try not too exceed a blood estrogen level of 700pg/mL, or take an anti-androgen. there is no conclusive clinical evidence to say that monotherapy is better or worse than E + AA, it's kinda just personal preference.

there are two things to be wary of with bicalutamide; first, it's hell for your liver. if you like to drink, don't take it. if you take it, get liver enzymes taken when you get blood labs pulled. second, bica does not stop T production, only reception, so it should only really be taken if you plan on getting an orchiectomy (thus removing the testes). If you plan on keeping your testes, use cypro.

if you take cypro, get a vitamin b12 (or general b) supplement. cypro eats away at b12 reserves which can sometimes cause depression and other mental health symptoms.

take your prog. take 200mg. if youre putting it in your mouth, take more until youre emotional but stable. if youre putting it in your butt - PUTT IT IN YOUR BUTT - take more, but less than you would if it were in your mouth.

work out. work your ass, your thighs, your abs. get sweaty. the more growth hormones you can get through your body, the more effectively your estrogen will feminize you (this includes your tits).

eat more. eat at least 25% more than your maintenance. eat lots of protein, but also lots of fat. your ass and tits will thank you very jiggly.
