CRAP I FORGOT ABOUT THIS
if youre dysphoric in a trans community group you get a million whatever suggestions to "fix it" and i dont want to hear it. i suck at vocal training. i cant just grow taller. i cant afford surgery. T takes time. there isnt always a way to fix it. working out more cant fix everything.

Good grief.
Desperate stuff
CAN'T BELIEVE I FORGOT TO SHOW HIM smh
and yeah this includes your fictional shit too. every teenage anime girl or cartoon teenager's boobs you gawk at helps enforce this normalization. fiction doesnt live in a bubble, it's a sign of whats considered ok or not.
you might not want to hear this but the radical thing to do would be to stop sexualizing teenage girls and let them still be kids, instead of apologizing for the normalization of it. it's entirely the product of misogyny and patriarchy.
Palantir has no place in our NHS.
The Labour government must get this Mandelson and Trump backed company out now.
Listen to what health workers are saying.

Canadaβs public health care is at a turning point.
Alberta opening the door to private, for-profit insurance risks importing a U.S. two-tier system. Rallies across the country are asking MPs one simple question: will you defend public health care or stay silent?
they're all the protag of il conformista; normalcy cops who desperately want to fit in with their higher stationed fascist peers, in this case 'normal society'
I've come to see it that way too, or at minimum as similar in function and outcome. I suspect most of it is organic, as predatory impulses or a desire to throw weirdos under the bus in a failed effort to appease ascendant fascism, but it would be so easy for fascists to infiltrate and do it too
100%. callout culture, fancops, puritans etc etc are fascist child predators
those people are groomers. they're grooming children to be their weapon to attack people with.
the early-mid '10s tumblr christian furry cottage industry of showing feral nsfw to underaged audiences while going "oh isn't this so gross we need to Clean Up the Fandom" is what immediately comes to mind
if you take something erotic that openly signals its intended audience and expose it to a different audience with the intent to gawk at it in disgust, even if it was posted on a public platform to begin with, you're lowkey doing a sexual harassment & it's a grey area that should be noticed more imo
If they got the Israeli Prime Minister, I think it's likely he perished with a Netanyahooohooohooooyyyy sound like Goofy.
I would never get brainwashed to join Team Rocket
I'm sorry but every time I see artist advice that's like "make sure you post frequently! the algorithm likes consistency and lots of content!" I just shake my head. recipe for burnout. we were not built to maintain the rapid pace of social media, and feeding the algorithm will never satisfy it
what is successful for social media =/= what is good for you as an individual artist. of course platforms that want you to scroll forever and look at ads want you to make as much free content for them as possible. You're a person though, not a printer.
maybe I'm crazy but I dont want to be a content machine. I dont want to network or "build community". I dont care if I "make it". I draw pictures because I like it. anything else will destroy my soul. art shouldnt be a chore
Every time you shake someone's hand, and it feels like your best friend, could it be that it's only superficiality?
also selling yourself as a brand or celebrity is so awful, we dont need people's art being valued based on beauty standards. fuck that. no. fuck instagram and tiktok for this bullshit.
sorry im just very mortified to see people suggesting to "make community and network" for the cynical motivations of 'getting ahead', rather than to make friends and share experiences like a normal person. how anti human can you possibly be. immediate distrust.
the way is see people talk about art online disgusts me sometimes. everything is about "getting ahead" like its some white collar job you're trying to climb the corporate ladder of. it's gross and soulless. "build community" just so you have people to advertise you, "sell yourself", ugh no thanks
As in Gaza, now in Iran and Lebanon. The USA and Israel are war criminal, rogue states.
