HI I LOVE YOUR ART STYLE

transfem fitz? :>

transition could save her/hj

(styled by the lovely biana vacker)

[nervoustoastthing]

as a trans person, every character I love is now transgender

no blorbo is safe

[an-ungraceful-swan]

I think that if keefe got eyeliner put on him he would cry

[lava-cake-brainrot]

ok but what about the hc that trans keefe changed his middle name to Cassius in an attempt to make him accept him more

[bookwyrminspiration]

hi!!!! i was just wondering if you had any headcanons for transfem!keefe? maybe a little trans!sophie as a bonus? of course you dont have to but i thought it would be nice

Hi!!!! I can certainly share a few!! I absolutely adore trans headcanons <3

i think Biana played a huge role in Keefe's transition/self-realization

she was always daring him to wear her dresses, or to let her do Keefe's make-up. and Keefe laughed and played it up, but when she put them on...

when she came out, Biana was overjoyed to have a friend tentatively enjoying more "girly" things. Keefe's artistry and Biana's experience are a heavenly combination

I think Sophie and Keefe came out around the same time (though not exactly)--and Sophie was so relieved to give all the dresses he'd spent years hating a new home

When she told Fitz, he went "Dude--wait, no--I didn't mean--" and Keefe couldn't stop laughing after she got over her nerves about telling him

Keefe's got a whole thing going with her hair, but you can only do so much with it when it's short--all the possibilities that open up when she starts growing it out!

buns and braids and bubble ponytails and all the extra material to work with!! it's scary how good she gets at them

Dex hooks her and Sophie up with hrt from slurps and burps, and when they can/their doses line up they hail each other to take it together

Keefe hasn't picked a name yet, but can't wait to find one and further distance herself from her parents

In the meantime she's going by Keeferina/Keefella (reference to her joke suggestions to name the baby aliorns) (she thinks it's absolutely hilarious)

When Sophie heard he just shook his head and sighed, but he was smiling. then he went to ask Keefella to show him how to do his hair

[toxxtt-kotlc]

THE YASSIFICATION OF KEEFE PT1/??????

WHAT IS THE FUTURE OF YASSIFIED KEEFE?? WHY DOES DEX HAVE YASS JUICE ANYWAYS??? WHO IS NEXT IN THE YASS JUICES REIGN OF TERROR???? THE ANSWERS ARE YET TO COME BECAUSE I GENUINELY DONT KNOW WHAT I JUST WROTE I GOT LIKE 5 HOURS OF SLEEP LAST NIGHT AND I WROTE THIS ON MY MATH HOMEWORK

[theunmappedstar]

"T4T SOKEEFE!", i shout into the mic. i am dragged off the stage and stoned in a back alley.

[gay-otlc]

All of my favorite characters are schrodingers transgender where I headcanon them as transmasc while simultaneously headcanoning them as transfem

Hunter Keefe, bib 10, at the Ceremonial Start and ReStart of Iditarod 52. The fan favorite who barely missed being rookie of the year in Iditarod 51 had a rough second time on the trek to Nome. While heading to the Western Coast of Alaska he was forced to scratch after one of his dogs expired due to unknown reasons (test results are still pending, a necropsy came back inconclusive). Rules state that a musher who has a dog expire must scratch if the death is not due to an outside force (drunk on snow machine, homicidal moose, etc). Before having to scratch Hunter was well on his way to having a similar finish to his rookie run, and was running in 10th place. His season of racing had been a solid, and he is known for his excellent dog care. Before the Iditarod began he was excited to have drawn bib number 10 as that's the number he wore the year he dressed up as an Iditarod Musher for Halloween as a child.

Keefe and team rallied a few weeks later for a final race of the season traveling to Kotzebue to run the Kobuk 440. The musher stated his team was too good of a dog team to finish on a sour note and that they deserved to run. They came in second place behind Jessie Holmes.

[blackbellaswan1]

monqiana life part 21, my spotify wrapped today was amazing checked my bank account first time in 2 weeks and😳😳😳😭

[dragoncats-system]

Keefe trying Sophie's dress for jokes and genuinely liking it

Would twirl around and laugh saying "Foster Foster, look I'm so pretty ! Aren't I the prettiest girl ?"

And Sophie has again (bc you can't convince me she had not at least two before) a bisexual panic / also realizes that maybe Keefe wants to be a pretty girl

I live for them two just not caring about gender things or truly anything

sophie, to keefe, absentmindedly: hey babygirl

fitz, confused: babygirl?

keefe: yeah, i’m her babygirl, fitz. keep up

Recommending some of my favorite rap songs. As a latin american trans woman, I didn't grow up with rap, but I learned to listen to and appreciate it.

I strongly recommend checking out other songs by these artists, the albums these songs are from, more songs from these genres and others I didn't include, and to explore everything hip hop has to offer (especially hip hop made by women). Feel free to add any artists and songs I (obviously) missed, that you think deserve more love and recognition, particularly independent music. Enjoy!

A venn diagram of the queer/neurodiverse content depicted in Invader Zim. I've already talked about the inherent queerness of Zim and mentioned a few times that there’s a big overlap with autism/neurodiversity but I thought this would make a handy reference. Note that ���neurodiversity” isn’t just autism/ADD/ADHD but also includes mental illness, personality disorders, mood disorders, learning disabilities, and anything else that isn’t “neurotypical”.

On the queer side there is actual canon queer rep in the show and comics:

Irkens are canonically aroace and intersex.

Groyna from the comics was confirmed by Eric Trueheart to be a lesbian.

Commander Poki from the comics may be trans, as she has eyelashes normally only seen on female Irkens, but lacks the curled antenna every other female Irken is shown to possess.

Recap Kid's gender is deliberately ambiguous.

There are also many instances of queer-coding that can be seen throughout the show such as:

The homoerotic rivalry between Zim and Dib.

Red and Purple basically being Zim's two gay dads.

Zim and several other characters having campy and dramatic mannerisms.

Zim using Keef and Tak as beards.

Zim and GIR wearing make-up/cross-dressing and generally not concerning themselves with or even being aware of gender conformity.

That time Dib's personality was copied into the body of a female ship which became very distressed at being told it wasn't really a boy and changed its physical appearance to match its brain.

Other queer elements featured in the show include:

Female characters who aren't love interests/show no interest in romance.

Most characters showing a general lack of visible interest in the opposite sex or romance.

The Membranes being a non-traditional family (single dad with no mom, later acquiring two more dads in the form of Foodio and Clembrane). Irken society not being structured around family units at all.

Satirical depictions of nuclear family units (Zim’s roboparents).

Transhumanism.

Kink/Fetish content including tentacles, bondage, domination, tongues, sadism, mind-control, body morphing, gore, food/eating, bodily fluids/fluids in general, Giger-esque designs, etc…

On the Neurodiverse side we have:

Zim’s food sensitivity.

Zim’s germophobia.

Zim’s dislike of being touched or hugged.

Zim seeming to suffer from sensory issues in general.

Zim getting overstimulated on the bus in Walk of Doom.

Zim and Dib infodumping.

Zim’s idiosyncratic speech mannerisms.

Characters having high intellect paired with poor social skills/low emotional intelligence.

Hyperfixations and special interests.

Zim’s struggles with multi-tasking and keeping his priorities straight.

GIR being easily distracted and unable to focus on anything that doesn’t immediately interest him.

Characters having poor volume control.

Characters having mood swings or trouble regulating their emotions.

Zim’s issues with memory.

Dib hyperfocusing to the point of neglecting hygiene.

Zim’s “problem with listening”.

And in the middle where they overlap there’s:

Zim and Dib being outcasts, misunderstood by everyone around them, and only able to connect with other misfits like Gaz, GIR, Keef, each other, and random hobos.

Zim masking his otherness and putting on performative displays of “normalcy” and having a well-founded fear of the consequences of being discovered.

Dib being open about his otherness and looking for respect and acceptance in the face of overwhelming ridicule and contempt.

Dib being pressured by his father to conform in order to please him.

Dib finding that the social benefits of conformity aren’t enough to outweigh the pain of not being his authentic self in Mopiness of Doom.

Dib’s experiences and perspectives being trivialized, dismissed and medicalized as indicators of mental illness.

Dib actually being mentally ill, but only as a result of not being accepted or supported for being different.

The eugenicist dystopia of the Irken Empire, where Zim is labeled “defective” and sentenced to death rather than treated for the mental health issues caused by the society that created him.

Daddy issues/familial rejection/non-acceptance.

Zim and Dib’s struggles with depression.

Zim and Dib’s need to prove themselves to gain validation and acceptance.

Zim and Dib being victims of bullying and in turn bullying others to feel a sense of power.

Dib’s self-loathing.

Zim’s default state being paranoia and anxiety.

Zim and Dib’s self-image issues.

And of course the one thing that binds us all: alternative fashion.

[bronte-deserves-better]

okay so in honor of keeper characters Not listening to taylor swift here are the bands I think keeper characters would actually listen to because I'm so normal about this book series.

Sophie: Linkin Park, hardcore metal bands (this is basically canon), also I think shed be big into Green Day. trans!Sophie listens to against me btw <3

Fitz: Chappell Roan. I will not elaborate.

Keefe: He might actually listen to Taylor Swift. Also, I think he'd listen to Troye Sivan and other sad gay pop music.

Biana: The discord says babymetal. I feel like she would also like Cindy Lauper.

Dex: He'd be into some weird experimental stuff. Also synth pop. Depeche Mode.

Tam: Okay, there are a lot of jokes about Tam being emo. However, I do feel like he'd actually enjoy some of My Chemical Romance and Three Days Grace.

Linh: I have been suggested crane wives and the oh hellos, both of which pass the vibe check

Bonus

Bronte: he's probably into some shit from ancient rome. If I had to pick a modern band, I'd say Against Me because I love them and i feel like Sophie would introduce him to them
