HUGE FUCKING SHOUTOUT TO ARTISTS WHO HAVE TROUBLE IMPROVING THEIR ART FOR WHATEVER REASON. ARTISTS WHO CAN BARELY MANAGE TO DRAW IN GENERAL BECAUSE OF DISABILITIES, ILLNESS, MENTAL ILLNESS, EXHAUSTION OR BEING TOO BUSY WITH OTHER AFFAIRS. YOU ARE STILL A GOOD ARTIST. HAVING THE WILL TO IMPROVE BUT NOT THE MEANS SUCKS. YOU'RE STILL DOING GREAT!
IMPORTANT NOTICE.
IF A TRANS PERSON ASKS YOU TO GO INTO THE BATHROOM WITH THEM, GO TO THE BATHROOM WITH THEM. KEEP THEM SAFE, AND GET IN BETWEEN ANY PHYSICAL HARASSMENT BEFORE IT HAPPENS.
There are bills being passed in the state of Iowa stating that a cis person will always win a civil dispute against a trans person, meaning that cis people are able to harass trans people without legal repercussions.
Please spread the word, and RB with other tips on keeping trans people safe.
this is good
I’d just like to add, see how they behave when they’re angry/frustrated/exhausted, and if you see something that concerns you, wait until they’re calm, and then talk to them about it.
My husband used to yell when he got frustrated, but after I explained to him that I found it upsetting, he stopped yelling and started consciously working on asking for help before he got to that level of frustration.
When I’m upset over something, or just in a bad mood, I tend to withdraw. My husband explained to me that it makes him feel like I’m mad at him, so now when I need some space, I’ll tell him what I’m upset about, or that I’m in a bad mood for no particular reason, and I need to be alone for a little while.
See your friends and partners at their worst, but don’t assume that their worst is immutable. If someone loves and cares about you, they’ll try to accommodate you to the best of their ability.
^^^^ This is the best advice I’ve ever seen on this site, and it is so important. Communication is everything, and is 80% of the reason my husband and I have such a healthy, strong, and supportive relationship.

You have to love the outright admission that it was never about gender affirming care and treatment for gender dysphoria was never about the treatments being "dangerous" or "experimental," but about fucking over trans people.
They will say puberty blockers are "new and experimental" and "dangerous" for trans youth, but carve out a medical exemption for cis youth so they can access those exact dangerous medications. What is it? Or puberty blockers dangerous or are they a medically necessary part of treatment? Because if it's about "protecting kids" like you say, shouldn't you all be protecting cis kids from them, too?
As for them experimental:
Puberty blockers have been in use to treat precocious puberty since the late-1980's. Puberty blockers as treatment have been used for treating trans kids since... the early-1990's.
Wow, so much longer. Such a difference. Those few years really cause such a difference, huh?
It's all bullshit. It's always been bullshit.

the general population’s education of indigenous american cultures is literally painful like people walk around not knowing that native americans domesticated dogs and turkeys, that many communities had farms that stretched for hundreds of miles, that many communities had completely terraformed their territories, that there were native trade systems stretching across the continent, that there were native metalsmiths before european arrival, that most native people were multilingual etc
