Book recommendation for yall! Found this in the library and checked it out bc I was a curious. It’s a really interesting look at the lives of women in the UK and the lesbian community, and has lots of chunks of stories from the various folks who were interviewed

The stories are very honest and very interesting! It has a lot of different answers to questions such as “how do people conceptualize themselves when they don’t have the language to do so” and is super insightful, I think a lot of it is applicable to non-UK folk as well

If your local library has it, definitely give it a read!

#book recommendation #the lives of older lesbians #most interesting to me was the intersection of gender and sexuality #and the fluid nature of words definitions and how we define ourselves #there’s loads of stories in there about with folks who if they grew up today might ID differently #there’s one persons account who outright says she’s a butch lesbian but if she were in todays generation she’d be trans #and get bottom surgery #interesting stuff!!#I love books like this bc it captures the way the queer community isn’t a monolith #and how different people relate to themselves differently #the intersection of the identities of feminist and lesbian was interesting #especially when it got into the difficulty between the feminists and the butch/femme folks #this was in a US library btw not even a UK one #I did have fun trying to guess the dialects based on some of the accounts tho lol

don't show him modern technology; it won't end well

bonus under the cut:

#i'm not sure if ford would really be interested in using the internet much #but i could see him wanting to look something up real quick and ending up reading something so outrageously wrong #that it pisses him off to the point that he gets into an argument about it lol #gravity falls #stan pines #stanley pines #stanford pines #digital art #my stuff #anyway i really don't like how this one turned out #but i don't feel like changing it #bc i already spent way more time on this than i actually wanted to #and i don't wanna look at it any longer

i am increasingly convinced that the wedding industry is having a statistically significant impact on young women leaving the mormon church. has anyone looked into this?

Poppy playtime got a guy worse than William Afton

#myart #chloesimagination #comic #fnaf #five nights at freddy's #fnaf fanart #springtrap #william afton #harley sawyer #fnaf 3 #poppy playtime #poppy playtime doctor #poppy playtime chapter 4 #So I saw the new poppy playtime chapter #and I think the plot and characters finally worked for me #really sparked my interest #I DONT love all the directions that chapter takes #but can we all talk about how cool the doctor is #AND BY that I mean how truly twisted he is #William’s crimes somehow feel small now #in the face of the company that just experiments on just kids #the doctor is awful in every way sick and twisted #and I think that’s epic #just the idea of William hearing the shit playtime co got up to #like I think the scale of it would genuinely shock him #even if he’s interested in that science as well #I may draw a lil more poppy stuff as a treat we’ll see

one more opinion about star trek fashion

it actually shouldn’t look like stuff you would wear (or at least a lot of it shouldn’t)

i’ve seen a lot of praise for modern trek fashion being better than classic trek because ‘people would actually wear that’

look at what people wore as everyday fashion 200-300 years ago, would you wear it? probably not, maybe for the novelty of it, but definitely not every day.

like, yeah this stuff looks crazy

it’s 300 years in the future. some of them are aliens, makes perfect sense to me that they would wear ridiculous extravagant clothes that look strange to my 21st century eye

similar to how if you showed modern fashion (especially alternative fashion/runway fashion) to someone dressed like this,

they would probably think we’re crazy.

yet for some reason modern trek wants us to believe that hundreds of years into the future people still just wear zip up hoodies?

(idk if the spock fit actually is a hoodie or not but come on man, the zipper? nothing more futuristic than a zipper?)

or this dress that looks like i could buy it in a 21st century target?

(not to hate on chapel, she’s just the only one i can find decent pictures of out of uniform)

also why is everything so grey now? when was it decided that people don’t wear colors in the future? i can not find out of uniform pictures where any of these people wear color, all black, white, grey, and maybe a bit of muted green.

tldr

clothing design in star trek should be just as important as clothing design in a period piece. i don’t think a screencap from any star trek should look like it could just as easily take place in the 21st century, i should see some crazy outfits. the clothes can do a lot of the heavy lifting to remind us that this is supposed to be far in the future.

#star trek #star trek tos #tos #snw #tng #star trek tng #star trek fashion #spock #like also i haven’t watched snw yet i just read synopses of episodes that look interesting (or if they look bad)#so maybe there’s reasons they’re dressed like that and i just didn’t get it because i didn’t watch the episodes the pictures are from #but also i couldn’t find any pictures with better clothes than those #like please feel free to correct me if there’s cooler stuff going on #the vulcans have some decent costumes #but they nerfed the hell out of amanda #look at her tos fits #her snw fits look like something the mother of the bride wears to a wedding #like okay fine it’s not that bad #but she should be much cuntier than that #also lol there totally are people who wear 1800s fashion every day and i love them #i have a strange interest in fashion history and that’s what prompted this post

Anti-fairies bubbles wisps sparks all so similar yet different #I know I learned way too late that some dungeons have an endless supply of fairies #thanks to respawning enemies like Anti-Fairies

this is a poster i made for my call to action assignment in humanities! it's a bunch of basic and easy stretches for people who sit and work at a desk all day (me)

the idea is that you'd put the poster up above ur desk and do the stretches every 30 minutes or so,, the whole routine won't take more than about 6 minutes to complete and when done regularly it can prevent wrist, shoulder, neck and back pain! :)

all these stretches can be done while sitting (although i HIGHLY recommend you stand up and move around while taking a break from working)

you can get a free digital copy of this poster here on my gumroad!

and you can order a print/poster here from my inprnt!

#i mostly made this for me but i hope it can help other people too!#also thinking about maybe putting this on smth like gumroad so people can download a high quality pdf to print themselves #lmk if anyone would be interested in that 👀#my art #artists on tumblr #stretches #edit: this post popped off okay‚ also a lot of people expressed interest so i made a gumroad! maybe ill put other stuff there thatd be cool

"content creator" is a corporate word.

we are artists.

#anti ai #fuck ai #artists on tumblr #please do not call me or any artist a content creator #i'm an artist. a fanartist. a designer. but not a content creator #ai clowns in my replies will be deleted and blocked without response so do not waste your breath #you are not an 'artist' for generating an image any more than you are a chef for ordering from a restaurant. someone Else did the work.#owen dennis just deleted all his blue sky stuff again and i hate that he does that because he makes such interesting comments #about the entertainment industry lmao i need to just. start screenshotting every smart thing he says #anyway thats why i decided to finally make this when its been sitting in drafts for a few months #owen dennis #edit - if you dont know who owen dennis is he's the creator of one of the best animated series of the last 20 years (Infinity Train)#he's very open about talking about art and the entertainment/animation industry on social media and in his newsletter and hes so cool 4 it

"jason is a knockoff watered down percy" NO hear me out, jason actually parallels annabeth immensely, sharing SO many similarities with her personality, not percy, in this essay I will-

edit: my full analysis is out now! here
