Mid 20s, she/her 🏳️‍⚧️

A brown-ish fake dinosaur (a theropod of sorts, with an almost Baryonyx-ish head with kinda Dracorex horns? It's all made up), carrying boxes and bags on its back. It is also carrying a cat-woman in blue-grey battle armor. She has white hair, orange-brown ears and kitty tail. She has a black sci-fi rifle in her lap. There are five extra large dragonflies circling them, and one dragonfly on the fakey-dino's tail. The background is a simplified red rock scene, with an arch. Also a moon? THIS IS MY ALT-TEXT!

A comic I made based on dream I had shortly before starting HRT. Choosing my own destiny 🌸 Though what I thought I wanted when I was younger no longer fits who I am, my future is full of abundance and possibility.

Gee, Tumblr would probably really hate it if you shared and spread this damning article … To the surprise of absolutely none of Tumblr’s LGBTQ users, it turns out the independent NYC human rights agency Commission on Human Rights (CCHR) found that Tumblr’s ham-fisted adult content ban in December 2018 disproportionately targeted LGBTQ users. The CCHR’s investigation revealed Tumbler’s moderation algorithms is demonstrably biased against queer content. As part of the settlement, Tumblr was obligated to review their prejudicial anti-gay moderation policies. Even more mortifyingly, they’ve also had to hire an expert on sexual orientation and gender identity (SOGI) issues and provide unconscious bias training to their moderators. I frankly doubt Tumblr has learned a thing from this humbling experience. Just recently the Tumblr algorithm flagged three ancient posts of mine as violating their terms. All three “offenders” were vintage homoerotic beefcake images (softcore by modern standards) roughly 50 – 65-years-old by Bruce of Los Angeles, Bob Mizer and Tom of Finland. (These are of course pioneering queer artists who routinely faced censorship and imprisonment in the fifties and sixties. Plus ca change!). They've been visible on my page - corrupting viewers -  for years at this point. I appealed all three immediately. Only the Tom of Finland one was approved. The other two are now hidden. So, they haven't learned much. Apparently, Tumblr – who loves to declare how hip, youthful, inclusive and progressive their values are - wants to restore trust with their queer users. I’d recommend we remember their hypocrisy when Pride rolls around and Tumblr splashes rainbow flags everywhere and attempts to pink wash their image.

In honour of Pride Month, this is worth a reblog! Don’t buy into Tumblr’s hypocritical “pink washing.” 

Y'know the first time I had HRT explained to me it sounded like bullshit. You're saying if I take the right meds, put enough girl juice in, take the guy juice out, then I'll just slowly transform into a girl? I mean that sounds like bullcrap right, that's made up. But no it just works like that cause the human body is stupid and doesn't know shit, so you can just trick it into being a girl body.

So when I heard GRS works by flipping your dick inside out and stuffing it inside you. Man. If the first thing sounded like bullshit this sounds like double bullshit. But no it just works like that cause it's all the same organs they just grew weird. It's fucking dumb, man. The human body is dumb as shit. I was sceptical but no it looks totally normal, that's a vagina. This is so dumb. It's dumb that it works like that.

It took a surgeon three hours to turn my outtie into an innie and now I have what looks like a totally natural female body. This is so fucking stupid

Real, I get you

I THOUGHT I WAS DONE BEING HURT BY THIS BUT NOPE. I WAS WRONG.

the idea behind a grim (a big friendly ghost dog) is that because the first soul buried in a burial yard would be its guardian they would bury a Very Good Boy there first so a human wouldn’t be stuck at the gate so to speak. so in that way Laika is continuing an ancient tradition of a guardian spirit protecting the souls of everyone who passes after her.

Reconstruction of the clothes of women from the Minoan era in Crete (reconstructions made by Dr. Bernice Jones).
The clothes of Minoan women were surprising with their style and variety of patterns. Greek women of later times wore clothes with completely different stylistic solutions. The exposed breasts were a characteristic feature of the dress of Minoan and Mycenaean women. They attached great importance to their attire, wear and used jewelry. They wore a wide and long skirt with a decorative belt tightening the waist and a tight-fitting bra with a metal frame revealing the breasts. They put on coats or capes on cooler days. Hair, intricately combed, was decorated with brown or gold ribbons, beads or headbands. Others wore appropriate headgear. They wore unusual hats. Some were wide, while others were tall, almost completely covering their hair, decorated with feathers or ribbons.
It can be seen at the Hellenistic Museum in Melbourne, Australia. The reconstructions are based on frescoes.
