yk what adding to that conversation of corporations and queer media / podcasts, when netflix made a series adaptation of archive 81, it was doomed to fail. not only did they completely change the plot, but they erased the lesbian character and made her straight 😐 just truly shows that companies and corporations like netflix will never truly get what is at the heart of indie projects like podcasts/audio dramas - they didn’t do it for the money, they did it because they wanted to. and then this company went and changed it to cater to the general population, while killing the thing that made it enjoyable + what gave it a fanbase in the first place. netflix will truly never ever get it.

*Sigh* Okay let’s discuss this-

I’m not gonna post anything next week because that’s my finals week. And this week I have been WORKING- like- study guides worksheets all that jazz and JEEZ HAS IT NOT BEEN FUN

I still have to work on something on Sunday (Biology has me on a choke hold right now-) but on Saturday I just wanna chill, have a free day and ACTUALLY MAKE A FULL DRAWING- And I’m planning to make something for pride month, Yay! :D

Enough of my ranting, we had to go somewhere so I was only able to make a few sketches (that look a bit like crap) but I don’t have anything else to post :( Sorry I’ve been busy and not posting on here. But I’ll post more during the summer I promise <:]

Anyways here are my sketches:

Not Dairy Queen promoting "Galentine's day" by telling people to buy their dairy products... Dairy QUEEN. promoting GALentine's day. by telling people to buy products from kidnapped, raped, drugged, abused, tortured MOTHERS. By exploiting these MOTHERS who are MAMMALS LIKE US because as MAMMALS LIKE US their bodies produce milk FOR THEIR BABIES ONLY, WHEN THEY'RE PREGNANT/NURSING, just like HUMAN FEMALES and ALL OTHER MAMMALS, and then DRUGGING THEM INTO RELENTLESSLY PRODUCING from 4L to 60L a DAY, aka 12 THOUSAND until their bodies give up so they get slaughtered in front of their loved ones, WHILE THEY AND THEIR LOVED ONES STAND IN A MIX OF EVERYONE'S SHIT THEIR WHOLE SHORT LIVES, not to mention have cancer and much worse WHICH ANYONE WHO CONSUMES NONHUMAN ANIMAL PRODUCTS, AKA FROM ANIMALS LIKE US, CONSUMES! And because it can't be left unsaid, the faecal matter and increased cancer, and covid and other diseases and pathogens, noxious drugs and chemicals and hormones, (why do only humans get acne, and why do girls as young as 8 now get their periods? and more and more cancer? and more?) and more and worse and of course, the kidnappings, rapes, druggings, abuse, torture, agony, suffering, horrific slaughter in front of their children and best friends and friends and other family and loved ones, and more and worse

Yes, VERY pro-female! SUCH pro-female, MUCH feminism, Dairy QUEEN's GALentine's day!

I am genuinely so worried for all the young horny dykes going into adulthood thinking there's something "problematic" / "wrong" with them for being horny because fucking tiktok lesbians think any horny dyke content is "male gaze fetishistic"

when u go to write a mentally ill person in ur story you are presented two options. the first option is to write your mental illness realistically as you actually experience it with all the ups and downs and people who are like you will resonate with it and feel seen. except every person who reads instagram infographics on mental health that uses the phrase narcicisst for anyone who does anything that crosses them and unironically call themself a dark empath will call you scary and tell you that youre demonizing mentally ill people

the second option is to lie and write inspiration porn for those people to get hard to

i used to be so good at writing strong, thoroughly-researched, thoroughly-edited essays.

as a kid in hs, my teacher literally came up to me, holding my 40 page essay on the intersection of the European witch hunts and capitalism/exploitation/gender roles (it was supposed to be 7 pages...whoops) and went like "this is literally a master's-degree level thesis. what are you doing?? you could literally use this as your final dissertation in a master's program, what the fuck."

NOW??? NOW?? you'd think I'd be oh so skilled. but alas. i can barely piece together two ideas. adhd skill-regression is so so real. im SOBBING

girls when they remember that sally named percy after the only greek hero with a happy ending and beryl named jason after a hero who died alone and unhappy to appease a wrathful goddess.

considering how many transmascs were legitimately way angrier BEFORE starting T and have since calmed down significantly have we perhaps considered that maybe the reason so many cis dudes are angry and aggressive isn't because of testosterone but maybe. like. personal issues. unmet needs. a social climate that teaches them that there are only like three acceptable emotional outlets for men max and one of them is being angry and shouting

I'm really tired of the "woman sad about her arranged marriage" trope, especially if that woman is royalty.

I am sure that many women across time were sad about their arranged marriages, but I'm sure a lot of others were excited, ambivalent, or resigned. Again, especially if you were royalty! I am sure if you were born a princess, you were trained from birth that your whole purpose in life was to marry someone important to solidify the power of the person on the throne. And honestly, it's an important job, if it wasn't, they wouldn't have tried so hard to do it.

That woman isn't just marrying another king or prince, she's going to be an ambassador of her country. She's supposed to be there promoting good relations. She isn't just a woman being sold off, she has a job! Also, if she is marrying the reigning monarch (or the heir), she may well end up running the country if the king is off at war or he dies when the heir is really young. That happened a lot throughout history! (or maybe she marries the third son and helps him find his way to the throne. Good for her)

It just feels like a modern sentiment being projected back. In Romeo and Juliet, when Juliet's mother first brings up marrying her to Paris, Juliet's basically cool with it and says she'll try to like him. She would have known this was going to happen because that is what rich women do, they marry into another family so their two families can be buddies. What else would she even be expecting?

It wouldn't bother me so much except that it's all we see! Give me a story about a woman who is like, "Cool, I shall give it my all!" Or she's like rolling up her sleeves and planning how she's going to get the court on her side and rule France, power behind the throne style (these women are mostly portrayed as villains, but who is to say the king would do a better job?). And also, have a little faith in women's fathers? You think men in the past didn't occasionally consider the happiness of their daughters? Not even a little bit?

• Fidgeting and stuttering do NOT always indicate that someone is nervous.

• Avoiding eye contact does NOT always mean someone is lying.

• Having a hard time focusing does NOT always mean someone is lazy.

• Carrying around a stuffed animal or blanket does NOT make someone childish.

• Poor motor skills is NOT a direct indication of intelligence.

Not everyone fits into your box. Deal with it.
