they/them, queer, ASD, PhD student; I'm an eclectic mess: mostly cartoons, comics, critical role, and shitposting. 18+ Icon is a ribbon diagram of a Sodium-Potasium pump generated in pymol, pdb entry: 2XZE. If you're using Tumblr as a break from reality, filter #compassion fatigue. To avoid content you wouldn't want to view at work, filter #spicy

Deagna(Dagna) the Wise!

As the final entry(for now) in the set of four(technically five if you count my current pfp Granis) goddesses for my original Tiefling-heavy setting, please enjoy Deagna the Nerd Wise! She's the patroness of scholars and the arcane(the latter of which have waned somewhat lately in prominence, leading to a diminished role in the pantheon)--she's also the Goddess of Mercy and Temperance, and is frequently found in a counterbalancing role to the more fiery Uisabhean! She's one of three goddesses usually depicted as 'Corbaggan', or 'short-horn' Tieflings, who are the children of Tieflings and other races, usually elves and humans, the others being Slíariann the Forge-Mother(She's probably going to be my next commish!) and Gránéas(Granis), who despite her colourful appearance, has the shorter-horns and humanoid feet of a Corbaggan, she just has more Tief than Human in her(ba-dum--)! Thanks so so so so much to @cadhla182 for the outstanding work, as always! Next up for me is the winner of the Sexyman Showdown, Kadi Kidiss!

"Rail only works over short distances" one of the most detached from reality carbrain statements I've ever read. Rail is objectively, demonstrably better to cover long distances than it is to cover short distances. Car culture legitimately gives you some kind of brain fungus.

did other Americans not get taught extensively in history about the Transcontinental Railroad and why it was such a huge deal

The entire POINT of rail is that it's good at long distances

girl what 😭

how old must we be before we are allowed to think about sex, i can never remember, they keep moving the goal posts.

We're never allowed to think ab sex sorry. Teen years are hormonal but being horny before 18 is a sin. When you're horny and 18-25 its cringe. When you're horny 25-35 "you should get a partner and stop being openly horny." When you're horny 35-45 that's weird because you're "kinda old." When you're horny 45-55 you're a creep. And when you're horny 55+ you're an old person who can't and shouldn't be horny. This is how they think. Sex bad, basically. Thinking about sex is bad. Wanting sex is bad. Anything even mildly related to sex or sexuality is bad.

about sums it up

if you think it's weird don't follow their nsfw accounts: problem solved

Just started tears of the kingdom and all I can think of is link when he wakes up in a mysterious cave, butt naked and without any weapons with a disembodied voice guiding him:

I was dropped from a few major nonprofit video campaigns right after I cut my hair as a teenager. They didn’t give an explanation. They didn’t need to. I quickly realized I was no longer respectable enough for them to use as an example “good” feminine trans girl. Instead, they worried I may make cis parents think their kids would continue to refuse gender roles regardless of transition status (which they somehow treated as a bad thing). The situation made me think about how much effort we put into appeasing society’s inclination toward homogeneity. I rarely saw other butch trans women in media at the time and realized why that was: an active process of large nonprofits trying to make trans more appealing to the mainstream at the expense of our gender nonconforming siblings. Bringing in allies shouldn’t mean excluding anybody. If you only support trans women who fit rigid ideas of what (trans) women can look like, then you don’t actually support trans people at all. Speaking up for trans women who don’t meet expectations of gender is absolutely essential for our community. By advocating for those on the margins of gender, we uplift all our communities.
