Some magical Misfits from ep 9 of second season.

SAM!!! I love her so much.

I was saying earlier I would be fine with Sam and Evan being like platonic life partners but I change my mind and want them to smooch. I mean I'd still be fine with them not but I am Mike Tyson with those pigeons about them.

EDIT: I might draw them smooching because as an artist, I have that power. I can manifest that shit!

roxy’s Great Big Mutual Aid Masterpost

So, this isn’t the first post ever made like this, but I’m trying to do something a little different than just posting a bunch of links. I’m only gonna include resources that are international, common, displayed either as a map or as a geographically-sorted list, and easy to participate in, to make this masterpost as accessible as I possibly can. If you’re reading this post you’re probably an English-speaker with an internet connection, and so with that in mind my goal here is that any given link you click will have a decent chance of having something near you, and there will almost certainly be at least one link on this list with something you can plug into

Groups

Mutual Aid Wiki - A map of mutual aid groups of all kinds, largely (but not exclusively) ones started in response to the pandemic

Food Not Bombs - A map of free public meals from rescued food waste. Can be a little outdated

Buy Nothing Project - A list of hyper-local gift economy groups

Trash Nothing - A list of local groups where people give and request things that would otherwise be thrown away

Transition Network - A map of local groups seeking to build sustainable circular economies from the ground up, for people, not profits

Industrial Workers of the World - One big labor union for everybody, with local chapters across much of the world

It’s Going Down’s Upcoming Events Page - A partial list of radical actions taking place in the near future, updated frequently

Locations

Slingshot Collective’s Radical Contact List - An international catch-all list of projects

Intentional Community Directory - A map of communes, housing coops, land trusts, eco-villages, and similar communal living projects

Repair Cafés - A map of spaces where you can show up and have your broken items repaired for free (or volunteer to do so for others)

Sharing Cities - Maps of the commons in various cities across the world

Sharing Spaces

Little Free Library’s Sharing Box Map - A map of little free libraries that have been converted into sharing spaces for food, personal care, or hygiene items

Freedges - A map of community refrigerators for sharing food

Little Free Pantries - A map of sharing boxes for non-perishable food

Can’t Find Anything?

None of these lists are comprehensive, and these aren’t the only resources available either. Try using a search engine or looking on social media with keywords like “[your location] mutual aid”

Maybe you could start something yourself! Here are some resources: How to Form an Affinity Group, How to Share from Shareable, Small Town Organizing for Anarchists, resources for mutual aid groups from Mutual Aid Disaster Relief, seven steps to starting a Food Not Bombs group

If you don’t have even a single accomplice to start an affinity group with, there are still actions you can take on your own! Check out my #practical tag for ideas

thinking of Evan growing his hair out, not much, its still low maintenance and unremarkable, its just that his partners really like running their fingers through it while they cuddle.

Evan hasn't known much of a soft touch, even now that hes 3 years out of high school and living like something of a real person. He doesn't trust easy, if ever, and his partners know that. More important they know he trusts them.

So Sam can kiss his forehead as he sleeps without him startling awake.

K can run their fingers through his hair and use the residual hair gel he can never quite wash all the way out to give him funny hair to wake up to. And he doesn't stir, or growl, he just snuggles closer. his favorite spot is Jammer's lap while hes playing video games, arms wrapped around his waist and his face shoved into Jammer's stomach as Jammer tries to play quietly, but he always gets too excited and shouts or cheers, but Evan can sleep hard and doesn't stir one bit even as Sam is startled awake and heads for bed and K looks up from their wall of monitors.

Evan loves how they make room for him even when he isn't aware.

So he grows his hair out, just a little.

so now that the pilot program are all becoming magical girls this means, as all magical girl groups imply, that they are in fact, a polycule

Connections

Of all the abilities in this show, my favourite is Sam's ability to see their connections, it just feels like such a beautiful power and I wanted to show that visually as best I could. The other part of this moment that I love love love is Sam's (Danielle's) choice to break her wand.

The wand that both represents her connection to magic and to her friends, the wand that acts as a safety net but also the wand from the old system of magic, an exclusive group that relied on things like wands to separate themselves from everyone else.

“NOOO it’s TOO CUTE!”

Bogariel Frogariel is my hero and Ayda is the love of my life

Here’s some #Dimension20 Fanart I did

I ADORE AYDA and she makes me feel very seen as a queer autistic person and she’s just amazing aaaa

I am working on more scenes and general work on other characters!

Getting into Dimension20 is getting me through life right now it’s so wonderful I love all the cast and the different campaigns but The Bad Kids will always hold a special place in my heart

as a huge lover of birds, 90% of the concern against wind turbines being used for energy is literally just pro fossil fuel propaganda. birds ARE at a risk however there is a lot of strategies even as simple as painting one of the blades that reduces a lot of accidental deaths. additionally renewable energy sources will do more in favor of the environment that would positively impact birds (and all of us). one study found over one million bird deaths from wind turbines. while that is a shockingly high number and we should work to drastically shrink it, at least 1.3 billion birds die to outdoor cats on a yearly basis. it was never about caring about birds

Listen all I'm gonna say is (and no hate to k because that's not at all what this is) but I think Sam and Evan are perfect for each other and kinda always have been.

Sam is the only one who has always Seen Evan for who he is and accepted him for it. She is the one who showed concern for him and didn't ever reduce him to a character or trope or base ideas. She never suggested/told people about only part of who he is. She is seemingly the only one who kept in regular contact with him.

She seems him and accepts him

And

He sees her, and not the one that everyone else sees, the one she portrays to the world, but the real her.

In season 1 K often cooed over the sad boy tumblr trope stuff Evan said and did. Jammer kinda just went that's wild anyway and did his best to be a silent support. SAM was the one who actively asked him if he was ok, killed the blood snake, made his demons go away etc.

In this season we find out the Jammer talks about Evan all the time but doesn't talk about magic at all which is leaving out a massive part of who Evan is as he was haunted Before the magic everything happened.

Sam has kept in contact, makes sure that Evan feels supported and Validated, and RESPECTS HIS BOUNDARIES. She accidentally uses magic on him and refused to make Evan do anything because she knew he didn't have a choice in it.

I don't know there is more but I've ran out of steam and words
