i imagine dr picani would be very excited about atla being on netflix. for multiple reasons
🍂led through the mist🍂 an adventure time au where taking up the lantern slowly transforms you into the beast, leaving behind only traces of the person you once were. sometimes you can see the light shining through the trees and hear the voices of children, guided back home by the lonely keeper of the lantern, who is still looking for the children he lost long ago
anybody else think about what had to have happened after mabel and dipper got home after shaving their heads on picture day bc i have. constantly, at length, for THREE WEEKS.
More from the Terrarium Life series :D Books and plants and hanging stars, these days I just want to be a child again.
I had hoped to finish these much sooner but it sucks to be forced to slow down due to my hand pain. Though I've been trying out a new technique that might help. The lump in my palm hurts most when my fingers are closed while holding a pen, so I've put a soft clay in my fist to prevent my fingers from fully closing. So far so good, if this works out long term I might be able to draw faster again, even before surgery. Fingers crossed!
Since people are getting into Hannibal again, I feel like this never got the attention it deserved.
it’s pride month so it felt appropriate to make screencaps out of the perfect scene in Galavant where an army of gays save the day
A silly comic with a bonus extra, sorta a continuation of the pride post, haha! : ) Working hard on the surprise video, I may be a little quiet this month!
Was anyone going to tell me that Cecil Palmer’s bathroom cat is named חושך because he pronounced it Kaw-Shak instead of choshech (gutteral ch)?
The ironic part is that חושך was a word I’ve been reading for most of my life!!! That’s one of my favorite words?? It’s in like a bunch of prayers– (Hebrew to English pronunciation guides kill me. I can read the languages separately but trying to write Hebrew as English makes my head explode.)
PS. Apparently Cecil is Jewish!
dog whistles
I decided to go through the followers of the LGB Alliance on twitter and block all of them, and I noticed a few trends in their bios and I thought I’d make a list of the ones that I (as a person who isn’t trans nor part of the LGBTQ+ community) saw as sus. Please feel free to add to this list!
- radfem
- radical feminist
- gender critical / gc
- sex not gender
- any support of jk r*wling or maya / # thisisnotadrill
- gender free
- gender atheist
- mentions of “trans ideology”
- mentions of “trans dogma”
- biology is real
- sex is real
- adult human female/male
- “homosexual female/male”
- mentions of “sex segregation”
- wumben / wimpund / woomud / wombyn (reference to a popular terf post)
- wombyn-born-wombyn
- mentions of female/male biology in their name, bio or profile picture
- mentions of not being “anti-trans” (always be suspicious of those who defend against something they have not been accused of)
- “against redefining womanhood/manhood”
- “not cis” / sis not cis
- “cisters”
- identifying themselves with chromosomes “xx / xy”
- LGB / L/G without the T / drop the T
- “woman/man isn’t a state of mind” / “woman/man isn’t a trend”
- “trans is misogyny”
- terf is a slur
- TIF / TIM (trans-identified female / trans-identified male)
- Pro-woman / pro-female / pro-male
- gender exclusionary
- pro-reality
- anti-gender
- MERF (male exclusionary radical feminist)
- protect women’s/men’s spaces
- female/lesbian/male/gay errasure
These are ones that on their own I don’t think would equal a transphobe but in the context of other things in their bio/name/posts can help solidify whether or not they’re transphobic or generally bigoted.
- mentions of “trans activists”
- “critical of gender stereotypes”
- 2+2=4 (dog whistle for “biology is real” bullcrap)
- rb/rt ≠ endorsement (used as a scapegoat to continue spreading bigotry)
- “queer is a slur” (can be used to exclude trans people from gay spaces)
- lesbophobia
- “gay not queer” / “lesbian not queer”
- mentions of “identity politics”
- mentions of “women hate”
- mocking of pronouns ( fuck/off, adult/human/female, ob/vi/ous, it/its)
- mentions of thought crimes / “my thoughts are not illegal” (scapegoat for spreading bigotry)
I will say, transphobes and terfs can be anyone.
Terf does not equal lesbian, or even gay
Terf does not equal cis women, or even women
Terf does not equal white, anyone can be transphobic.
Just because a person looks progressive on the outside does not mean they really are, LGBTQ can just mean “gay and lesbian” to some people. Transphobes might not post their own bigotry, but look at who they follow and who follows them, or if they have posts shaming transphobes/supporting trans people.
Some of these may seem trivial, but that is how people get roped into bigoted ideologies, if you can agree with the phrase “biology is real” without knowing the transphobic undertones or intentions behind that phrase, then it’s a slippery slope from there. We have to help the trans community fight against transphobes, no matter what minority group they’re from, by learning about dog whistles and shunning people who spew them from our circles.
Don’t engage in discourse with them, as you risk shoving people on the fence to their side, don’t make block lists, you only give them a platform. Download shinigami eyes, and block every red name you see. Any attempt to “clap back” only encourages more terfs to wiggle out of the woodworks to defend their cisters. It’s not a battle worth fighting and we as cis people should be extending our love and energy to trans people.
We’re all having “hard conversations” about racism, police brutality, and #BlackLivesMatter I hope.
You’ve probably noticed that detractors often use the same “racist talking points” in response. Here’s a researched and sourced guide to help you answer, for the times you may get stuck.

Palpatine’s Journey
According to the review I just read this video offers more of an explanation for why Palatine is still alive than the new movie does lmao

Do you have a fever, or are you always this hot? I’m worried about your health and I think you should maybe go lay down.
Did it hurt when you fell from heaven? That seems like a really great distance we should probably call an ambulance…

Are you from Tennesse? I’m having trouble placing your accent and it’s seriously bothering me…

Top Videos 2019 - Chinese New Year
By: @bigtoejoe003 via TikTok
Date: August 24, 2019
More: The song in the video is Chinese New Year by SALES. SALES is an American guitar-based pop band from Orlando, Florida. The band’s members are musicians Lauren Morgan and Jordan Shih.
Quoting an article from Bandcamp Daily about the song.
“Guitarist Jordan Shih, the other half of the duo, was working 6AM shifts at an AT&T call center during that same time. “For me, the Chinese New Year is a metaphor for that specific time period,” he says. “I was working 40 hours a week at that call center. I would get home and Lauren would come over and we would work.”
Morgan admits that the real story behind “Chinese New Year” is her temporary move to Tallahassee. “I decided I was going to move back to Tallahassee because I was in love with someone and I wanted to be closer to them, even though I wasn’t sure where they were at with it,” she says. “I was just like, ‘I’m going to move up there and I’m going to make this person my person.’” The lyrics track Lauren’s mental state before and after the move. Toward the beginning she intones, “It’s time for us to make a change/ It’s time for a Chinese new year/ It’s time for me to make my way.” The song concludes with her looking back on the past year (“Wept a lot/ oh, baby, you slept a lot/ I was left a lot last year”).”
