Insurance companies will send you mail that’s like “here’s what your medical care cost originally but don’t you worry! We negotiated for you so you only have to pay $300! You are welcome :)” like gosh golly thanks. That’s much more reasonable for a 15 minute check up.
Signed prints. PWYW $10+ signed prints on archival paper with matte finish. If a print you want is sold out, check the following week. The demand has been really high and for the time being I need to watch my paper stock lol but I do refresh the quantity after shipment, this will not be removed.
PWYW license (feel free to print for yourself, make stickers, etc. I only ask the art not be edited or used for profit, or if any money is exchanged that it goes toward mutual aid or local organizations for LGBTQIA+ communities.)
Threadless tees and more (80% of my portion goes to the National Center for Transgender Equality). I'll add more later next week.
Be your own god. Happy Pride. ✌️🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️🖤

What I believe is happening in the case of coming across a public expression of sexuality, or a trans woman in a dress, or someone wearing a BDSM collar, or a woman in a short skirt is that these things will strike some people as inherently "sexual" in ways that other things (such as topless men and wedding rings) do not. And things that strike us as "sexual" may evoke sexual stigma in our minds. And this experience of sexual stigma - which can act indirectly and from a distance, as we've all seen with fears of "contagiousness" - can make us feel as if we are being "nonconsensually" implicated in a "sexual" activity, even though no boundaries have actually been breached, and the supposed act may not even be sexual for the other party. Such overreaches are worrisome, not only because they further marginalize those who are already unfairly "marked by sex" in our culture, but also because they can dilute or weaken legitimate claims of nonconsent in cases where actual sexual violence has been perpetrated.

The duality of "If you even imply that being aro or ace condemns someone to a sad and lonely life I will fucking fight you"
and
"being aro and ace is the most isolating thing I will ever experience"
i think the tags are important
literally on my fucking knees begging and pleading for cis allies to stop saying things like “no trans kid is getting surgery” “no trans kids are transitioning” “trans kids just take reversible puberty blockers until they’re older” because these statements are not only demonstrably false, therefore giving transphobes an open window to completely debunk your argument and boost their own (”if it’s not happening why do you care if it’s made illegal?”), but you are not helping us or protecting us and our rights. you are hurting us.
i started hormones when i was 14 because psychological and reversible medical treatment did not ease my dysphoria enough to improve my quality of life! me, my family, and my doctor(s) decided that hormones would be the best next step to help me, so that’s what we did! trans kids DO take hormones, and they DO occasionally get surgery, and that is COMPLETELY FINE!! because preventing a family from accessing what they and care providers decide is the best healthcare for a child is CRUEL AND UNETHICAL.
multiple studies show trans people who are forced to wait until late adolescence or adulthood to medically transition have worse mental health than both their immediate peers and continuing on into adulthood.
if i hadn’t started HRT when i did i would have flunked out of school or killed myself before i turned 18. trans kids have a right to access best practice medical care, whatever that may be for them.
Some thoughts as Spider works on his jacket.
This is exactly how I try to think of my journey of self-discovery through life. You are allowed to take the seam ripper to parts of your previous identity that no longer fit.
i mean this completely seriously but… a cup of coffee can save your life a little, a shower can save your life a little, making your favorite meal can save your life a little…….little things actually add up to really big things in the long run if you let them, the secret to surviving everyday is infusing a little bit of magic into the mundane i truly believe that
Hate being fixated on shit like Mario. There aren’t any deep thoughts to be had here, I’m just rotating a little italian plumber in my mind all day. Hya wahoo. Now he’s in a fursuit.
🗣️This is important!
America’s puritanical, homophobic, anti-vaccination, anti-sex education, “morality” mentality is killing people.
