Growing up with a gender non conforming mother literally saved me. She never wore makeup, she rarely shaved, she had short hair, she always put comfort first when choosing clothes, she never cared for skincare or anti-aging products in fact she’s proud of her wrinkles, she was a ‘these are signs of a fulfilling life’ mother not a retinol at 15 mother, she was a ‘eat whatever you want’ mother not a ‘are you gonna eat all that?’ mother, she was openly against plastic surgery, she stood up for her beliefs, she never let men talk down to her or belittle her, she was always down for a debate etc.

It didn't dawn on me until I got older that this wasn't 'normal'. That not everyone’s mother was like that. I rarely felt pressure to conform to patriarchal gender stereotypes because I didn’t grow up with one as a role model. In fact the only times I started to feel as though I should conform to ‘femininity’ was when I started integrating more into wider society and less in the comfort of my home. (Social media, friendships etc)

When I was a kid, I took it for granted, but now I see how blessed I was to be raised by a mother like that, and I see how much my friends and women online are struggling to accept themselves in totality, in their natural and unapologetic form. Since I was born, I thought it was totally normal for women to be like that … because it should be.

As cameras becomes more normalized (Sarah Bernhardt encouraging it, grifters on the rise, young artists using it), I wanna express how I will never turn to it because it fundamentally bores me to my core. There is no reason for me to want to use cameras because I will never want to give up my autonomy in creating art. I never want to become reliant on an inhuman object for expression, least of all if that object is created and controlled by manufacturing companies. I paint not because I want a painting but because I love the process of painting. So even in a future where everyone’s accepted it, I’m never gonna sway on this.

if i have to explain to you that using a camera to take a picture is not the same as using generative ai to generate an image then you are a fucking moron.

my favorite thing about subspace emissary is that it has the best and most accurate characterization of Dedede that isn't a mainline Kirby game. Sakurai knows his characters so well

When a man says he prefers a woman who is strongly opinionated and independent, don’t take his words literally. Because what he truly means by that is he is looking for a woman he can ‘tame’, someone he can bend to his needs because men are insecure and wanna prove their ‘manhood’ to themselves through ‘dominance’. He wishes to acquire a woman he’d otherwise not stand because it feeds his male ego. They view strong women as a conquest to be won, exotic birds they can collect, only to imprison them and dehumanize them, as it gives them a sense of ‘accomplishment.’ They perceive the challenge of ‘taming’ such women as a test of their own prowess. Men love to test their limits on women. He views naive women as boring because he sees no ‘thrill’ in pursuing them. Women have never been humans to men. Don’t take men’s words literally.
