> sees complaints that a female character looks "too masculine" or "like an ugly lesbian"
> ask if we got an actual butch character or if shes just a normal looking woman that isnt wearing make up and a dress
> person is visibly confused, i start explaining the difference between actual butch presentation and dress and a woman simply dressing comfortably to avoid indecent exposure
> person laughs and says "she straight up looks like a guy, i can barely tell her apart from the actual men"
> google the character
> shes just a normal looking woman that isnt wearing make up and a dress

Funny how depending on who's saying it and where, the words "dark fantasy" could mean that the work contains a hardcore questionably ethical kink scenario, or it could mean that at some point there might be some kind of a Skeleton King.

There's a cool idea for some OCs in here somewhere...
In time travel movies, when the time traveler asks 'What year is this?!?' they're always treated like they're being weird for asking.
When in reality, if you go 'What year is this?!?' people will just say '2024. Crazy huh.' and you go 'Wtf where has my youth gone.'
And if you ask 'And what month??' people won't judge you, they'll just go like 'SEPTEMBER!!! Can you believe it?!?!' and you go 'WHAT?!? Last time I checked we were in May?!?'
a nosy socialite at an event, leaning down: “Oh Richard, it must be so hard for you in that house, what with Bruce’s…proclivities for nighttime guests.”
Dick Grayson, fully aware at age 13 that Bruce Wayne is a Loser™ whose only “nighttime guest” is Clark Kent, who comes over to “review cases” with Bruce before/after patrol while both of them awkwardly ignore any and all tension between them: “Something like that.”
Cutting out the only canonical black character out of the show after race bending an entire house to be black and giving the characters minimal scenes with very little development, is racist.
Also, Nettles and Rhaena are not even comparable in terms of their respective narratives- Rhaena’s hatching of the dragon morning after being insecure for years about being the only person in her family to *not* have a dragon is all irrelevant if she just suddenly claims a wild dragon and all of it is fixed. Likewise, Nettles being a lowborn girl who rides a wild dragon is not a story that could be easily fixed by giving it to noblewoman whose character does not tackle racism/misogynoir the way Nettles’ does.
Granted, all of what we know about this supposed storyline is based on leaks and has not been confirmed as yet, but it’s a pattern of HBO to exclude characters of color and queerness from ASOIAF, in order to make it palatable for viewers. To pretend that there isn’t any form of prejudice or bias when it comes to the inclusion of queer and bipoc characters is…odd.
show me, show me, show me how you do that trick

you would almost think that israel has stopped killing palestinians but in the past twenty-four hours i have seen some of the most gruesome images of dead and beheaded human beings in my life, once again, in july of 2024.
israel is banking on nine months of genocide pacifying global outrage, the slow and steady extermination becoming more palatable. however, nine months in this also incriminates them absolutely.
to be committing such heinous crimes nine months in, with a genocide trial, ICC warrants pending, the eyes of the world on them shows that israel is not a state with any system of accountability, nor are its citizens or its supporters capable of mounting a real opposition to its genocidal mandate of palestinians. nine months of unstoppable and unceasing war crimes, and nine months of israel apologists refusing to give an inch as they continue to take lives. nine months of proving that they were never trying to end hamas, nor were they ever capable of it, but they seek nothing except the annihilation of palestinians and the annexation of their lands. nine months of settler colonialism in action.
nine months of palestinians being proven, beyond a doubt, completely right in their assessment of israel. a state that is beyond redemption, a state that is not a partner for peace, a state that has never stopped reproducing the violence of its foundation since the day it was founded.
Reminding myself to make the features of my trans-coded character designs more prominent as a lil' treat 'cause the constant headlines here in the UK debating whether we should be allowed to exist are driving me up the fuckin' wall actually ❤️🔥🏳️⚧️

reminder that donating just a few $ to gofundme campaigns actually helps, you don't have to donate huge amounts if you don't have the funds, every little bit is useful. give $10, $5, even $1. it all adds up. don't scroll past because you think you can't help. help in your own capacity. donate a dollar. share and speak up.
DONATIONS FOR GAZA
As you probably know, the situation in Gaza gets worse every day. At this stage, every donation, no matter how small, might make a difference between life and death for someone trying to escape Rafah.
Donate as little as 7$ today and you get a sketch or a small illustration of yourself, an animal, a friend - whatever it is that you want.
You can find the full spreadsheet of families here: Operation Olive Branch
or you can donate to one of the randomized gofundmes from here: Gaza Funds
Send me proof of your donations and the details for the artwork you desire. YOU CAN SEND IT THROUGH DMs OR EMAIL ME (email and useful links here:)
Depending on how busy this gets, commissions might take two days or more.
*Biggers commissions are available for bigger donations! You can see illustrations I did in the past here.
Zodiac series by Rozenn Grosjean

STARRING IN *her* VERY FIRST MOVIE
So, I just finished reading Maze of the Beast and made a rather interesting observation.
This is the first book of the series where Dain features prominently. The decription of him from Lief’s perspective, and his growing respect for his strength and bravery all signal to Lief’s admiration of the other boy. Prior to this, Lief shows basically no romantic interest in Jasmine (he obviously cares for her a great deal, but I wouldn’t describe his feelings at this point as romantic). And a funny thing happens here. When Lief notices Dain admiring Jasmine for her skills and manner, he feels jealous. An odd thing, that, because you would think that if he was interested in Jasmine, he would be jealous in Jasmine showed interest in Dain, not the other way around, and she shows no such emotions. It’s hard to be jealous of someone feeling for another person, when those feelings don’t exist. Not to mention Lief has show little indication of similar feelings for Jasmine. So who, then is Lief jealous of? Is it possible that our dear boy is in fact rather hurt that Dain is showing an interest in his best friend, rather than himself? It’s something to think on, at least.
Basically, I’m saying that Lief had a crush on Dain well before he ever had one on Jasmine. Because seriously, someone try and provide me with a heterosexual explanation for what happens in that book, really.

30 days OC challenge.
I could not find a 30 day challenge I liked, so I made one. You can just use the bolded word, or get inspiration from the following ideas. Descriptions, drabbles, dialogue, drawings. No rules, do what feels most comfortable for you. I haven't numbered these, you can do that yourself, in the order you want to.
First meeting. A new friend, sibling, business partner? First impression of someone? Or perhaps someone else's first impression of your OC?
Memories. Good or bad, one or many. One almost forgotten or maybe one they want to make?
Inventory. Special items, a random collection, only the necessities? Or maybe an item they lost?
Fighting. Skills or magic? A general description or perhaps a favourite spell? A special style or move? A situation where it was used?
Anger. What makes your OC angry? Do they fight or is it silent anger?
Formal wear or event. Anything from acquiring formal wear to wearing it to the event itself.
Romance. Is it something they want? What is romance? Small moments or a full blown fairy tale?
Friendship. An old friend or one you just met? What does friendship mean to your OC?
Sickness. A small flu or a chronic illness? How does your OC deal with being sick? Or when someone else is?
Hurt. Emotional or physical.
Travel. A journey they will always remember? One they want to take? Or perhaps somewhere in the middle?
Shoes. Yes, shoes. Anything to do with shoes. Or the lack of.
Sleeping. How do they sleep? Dreams they remember? Have they slept somewhere unusual?
Darkness. Dark night, mood, mind, location, fear. Take your pick.
First light. An early morning. Why are they awake? Lounging on a bed or already on the move?
Above-average. Does your OC excel in something? Do they have special features? How about in the opinion of others?
Water. Rain, river, lake, a bucket of water? Get soaked.
Air. Flying, high spaces, wind, breathing.
Symbols. Does your OC have symbolic features? Do they like symbols? Or maybe they are the symbol.
Fire. Stories around a campfire. Cozy fireplace. Accidents. Or maybe a fiery nature?
Earth. Getting your hands dirty. Life and death. Or maybe just lying on a grassy hill.
Jewelry. Do they have heirlooms? Buying jewelry as a gift? Wearing them?
Hobbies. Physical or mental? Creative, entertaining, useful?
Sensitive. Do they have subjects they avoid. Are they ticklish? Or maybe sensitive to the feelings of others?
Happiness. What makes your OC laugh? A situation they felt happy in?
Keepsakes. Items that have special meaning? A gift? Something they found?
Soft. Clothing, touch, mood, texture.
Embarrassment. Does your OC get embarrassed easily? Maybe they are the cause? Do they like to embarrass others?
Intimate. What things do they consider intimate? Are they willing to share those? With whom?
Imagination. Use it.
That's it. 30 things, 30 days. I will do it too, after I get back home from my trip. Feel free to use on any fandom~
