My fav agents of the transsexual empire 🫶😁🏳️‍⚧️

I think personally we should draw them as adults getting to fully indulge in their teen fashion aspirations. (see second image) Callies outfit was inspired by paint splotches and embroidery as if she made her outfit herself :) A true artist!

Third is my updated readings. I say "readings" because i believe theres textual evidence for these and its how i interpreted them from my read throughs. (Only jake has the autism symbol because hes the most explicitly disabled coded in text but all of them to me are neurodivergent)

The gender labels are used loosely bc i think each of them has an incredibly unique journey/relationship with their gender that cant be encapsulated in a small set of words, and i do not think any of them would actually fully use labels either.

I am just using these to simplify down my thoughts into something easily digestible LOL MY THOUGHTS ON THEM AND THEIR PARALLELS + MIRRORS + INVERSIONS ARE SUPER COMPLEX i think about them Genuinely Literally Every Day of my Life. theyd have to be saved for a different time </3 but ya alpha kids trans 4EVER howd hussie cram THIS AMOUNT of queerness into these guys.. will never know

Hello! Could you help me with something? I read that Jewish people call God HaShem l, but why do they also write "God" as "G-d"?

Quick disclaimer that I am not an expert, and while I want to give a thorough answer, I also do not want to be too wordy - I may leave out some things!

The long and short of it really comes down to respect and revearing His name! There are many names used for g-d, and in fact, I can think of many just off the top of my head!

When g-d's name is written down, whatever is used to inscribe that name on should not be destroyed - to the point that there are specialized places (genziah) where one may place time-worn objects (such as tefillin or manuscripts with g-d's name written down within the pages) within in order to be properly disposed of. In fact, we have one for our shul and community and though I haven't gone, it's a serious thing!

One way we "get around" using g-d's name is calling Him Hashem (השם), which just means The Name - it's appropriate to use pretty much whenever, honestly. In shul (at least, mine), we don't use Hashem in prayer or reading from the Torah, we instead use Adonai, or Elohim, or whatever is appropriate for the prayer or situation. G-d is a g-d of name names, but honestly, if someone respects g-d's name, the semantics about Which Name is right become ess emphasized, in my experience.

random hc but I think Pyro users would have really dry skin + easily dehydrated

so it helps that their partner carries around a water bottle, often reminding them to stay hydrated

even cuter if you help apply lotion on their skin + cute skin care routines for dryness!

I had a minor surgery/procedure today I was super nervous about but everything went well!!! everyone was so attentive and nice, it made the experience an absolute breeze and I felt really comfortable and reassured ;;_;; couldn't ask for a better care team!!!

just got a couple days of healing ahead but super blown away...just had to share it out into the world!!! the care team even wrote me a handwritten note and added it in to my stuff ;;_;;

there has been A LOT of personal stuff going on the last couple months but finally getting to chip away at stuff, and getting medical providers that are helping eith the burden... I'm extremely lucky and thankful to have that experience !!!! can’t wait to get back to art…. can’t wait to hopefully feel some kind of relief soon!

Sometimes when I’m writing my lbl au I get nervous and self conscious about how the different Link’s are written and I’m afraid that people won’t like it, but then I remember that it’s my au and I shouldn’t care what other people think and that they can suck it

the job market truly sucks right now. I'm gonna share my story without doxxing myself in hopes its helpful to you. I got my degree in film making about 20 years ago and have done a lot of free lance work since then, specifically producing reality tv shows so think jersey shore, tlc, etc.

However, as you know in any art/music/tv/creative industry, it's so hard to find consistent work/projects to make a living. When I wasn't finding consistent work, I applied to a state job in the Court system as a clerk and I did that for a number of years. Eventually, I got tired of my court job because it was getting mundane so I left and did reality tv full time. However, I stayed long enough at that court job to qualify for a pension and health insurance so If i wasnt finding work at least I know I have my benefits from my old job.

a few years ago, I left reality tv and went back to doing a state job, this time at CPS. i like CPS because I get to apply what I learned in the film industry at CPS too. with reality tv I interview the stars and with CPS im interviewing people to get information I need. Now, because I have already worked for the state for a certain # of years, i am now vested so my salary is higher then most people starting at CPS. I would still need to do a certain amount of years at CPS before I retire but it wont be the typical 20-25 yrs like most jobs. This would be because I'm already vested in the system here then I can retire.

My point is, apply to state jobs you think your degree is qualified for. You may end up doing something completely then what you went to school for but at least you will have security. and that to me at least is the most important thing a job can offer you.

ik my reply to this is really late but thank u so much anon, this is rly kind of u to go out of ur way to say and it means a lot. i couldn't have predicted my industry imploding but i'm definitely giving this a shot, and ik a few ppl that have gone this route and been much happier as a result, so here's to hoping that something goes thru and works out!!!

I can no longer remember the text post I got this strategy from, but one of the best pieces of social advice I've put into practice is the art of rescheduling.

Having to cancel plans sucks for both parties, and you don't want to seem like you're not interested. So when you have a scheduling conflict or are having a bad chronic illness day or just aren't feeling it, give whatever amount of explanation you feel is necessary, whatever apologies you feel are needed, and offer an alternate date/time.

Giving the other person a chance to reschedule shows them you still care about spending time with them and aren't just shrugging them off. Selfishly, it also helps alleviate some of the guilt of disappointing someone. But overall, the relationship doesn't take nearly as much of a hit when both parties show the willingness to make plans happen
