the wikipedia article for Kemonā used an ai-generated image as its first example, and i saw discussion about wanting to replace it, but there not really being any illustrated examples in the wikimedia commons. so i took a crack at it!!
Anyway for those of you not enmeshed with tumblr’s transgender mycelial network, or otherwise on its periphery, basically every damn day of pride month another couple trans bloggers have gotten wiped, regardless of blog content, following, blog age, anything, and it shows no sign of slowing. In general it seems to be hitting transfems more liberally, but transmasc and nonbinary friends of mine have also been wiped for their steadfast solidarity or Just Cause. There’s also been an uptick in posts being almost immediately marked mature by community tags for no discernible reason beyond “Posting While Trans”. This is a time to stick together like goddamn epoxy resin. Vocally defend and support each other. Block and ignore any wretched cunt spreading callouts or stirring up shit. Make sure you have a way to talk to your friends beyond this site. Don’t buy badges, don’t blaze, cold shoulder the fuck out of mod blogs, and give voice to your discontent.

[ID: a digital drawing of damien, an anthro german shepherd mage. he has spikey cream bangs, various piercings in his ears, blue eyes, a red collar with gold spikes, and a punkish outfit consisting of a cropped vest, an even shorter fishnet top, spiked and studded bracelets and leather glove, a dark red studded belt, and black shorts with red stitching and frayed ends. all of the metals on his outfit are gold. damien crouches on one knee with a smug expression on his face, slinging a baseball bat made of purple magic over one shoulder, and wields a glove and ball made of this same magic in his other hand. the background gradients from purple to black with a mess of warm colored splatters on top. /end ID]
