i wanna give a shout out to all lgbt people who thought they were another identity before realizing they were something else. lesbians realizing they’re trans men, bi/pan people realizing they’re a lesbian/gay, binary trans people realizing they’re genderfluid, etc. even if you don’t know if your current identity is the final stop, even if you think it’s a “phase”, or you don’t know what label fits you best, you’re on a journey to self discovery, every step matters, it shapes you into the person you are or aspire to be, and you’re not fake or a bad person for figuring things out.

Thousands got out today in airports to protest against Trump’s Muslim Ban singing “This Land is Your Land.” and a Federal judge has been able to block the Muslim Ban but it’s only a temporary fix so pls if you’re american Call your member of Congress and demand they overturn the ban for good! if you can’t or aren’t american but able financially pls donate to the ACLU.

To everyone who is protesting at airports: you are heroes. To everyone currently detained: you are loved.

NP! Vol’jin just always has been one of my favs so I’ve paid attention to a lot of his aspects (such as he actually has a huge woman fanbase, and how a lot of the chest-thumping dudes who supported ORCS and GARROSH and etc threw a fit when Vol’jin got power. The forums were SUPER FUN and filled with UBER WANK at that time, with many disparaging Vol’jin’s “manliness”). Because otherwise if it was like, Thrall-the-Metzen-stand-in getting fridged or something, I would be right there with you.

I just want to bring attention to the fact that this is one of the first times I see a major male character die ONLY to further a woman’s story in mainstream media, not to mention it’s WARCRAFT, something that has stayed relevant for more than a decade, and compared to how many times a woman has died only to further a man’s story, I’m fucking giggling in delight at everybody’s reaction THIS HAS BEEN SEETHING IN ME SO LONG AND IT’S FINALLY TURNED THE TABLES FOR ONCE AND IT FEELS SO GOOD.

Don’t talk to me i’m not a person right now i’m a bag of pure salt.

Yeah except it was a the one major lore character coded Afro-Caribbean so.

the Crewniverse really need to get to work making positive butch representation

i get that it takes a long time to plan out and make these episodes, so responses to criticism from something that just aired probably won’t be seen for at least a season, but JEEZ.

[changelingupkeep-blog]

*sees spoilers about the newest SU episode* You know what fuck it I’m not watching another damn episode until we get some positive butch/masculine presenting representation like holy fucking shit. Wow. For a show that is so big on diversity and coolness yeah let us make the two big buff gems into those who are physically dangerous to our heroes and who shatter gems/threaten to shatter gems BECAUSE WHY THE FUCK NOT. *flips off the Crewinverse as I sail into the sun*

First of all, thanks for everything folks. Sticking through with this ddumb blog of mine even when i sometimes hardly post anything for weeks or months on end. Through all the subject matter changes, the art blocks, the occasional silly text post. Just thanks a bunch. I know to a lot of people 2k might not seem like a lot, but to me it most certainly is. There’s something so important to me about the fact that, on a blog separate from anything but my art, I’ve managed to reach so far.

Anyways, as a thanks, I’d like to do a giveaway! An art giveaway! I’ve always wanted an excuse to do one, and this is finally, I feel, a perfect opportunity for such a thing ;V!!

Steven Universe: Uzo Aduba plays a new Crystal Gem — exclusive

The Crystal Gems are going to get a little bigger when Steven Universe returns; the Cartoon Network favorite is introducing a new Crystal Gem as well as an all-musical episode.

Steven Universe has shifted to an erratic episode schedule recently, but its upcoming event Steven Universe: Summer Adventures will air a new episode every single weeknight for 4 weeks. Yup, you did that math right — that means there will be 20 new episodes airing between Monday, July 18 and Friday, Aug. 12.

Toward the end of the event in August, fans will meet Bismuth, voiced by guest star Uzo Aduba (Orange Is the New Black). The 22-minute special “Bismuth” will introduce the purple, rainbow-haired gem, who fought alongside her fellow Crystal Gems in the battle to save Earth over 5,000 years ago. Get your first look Bismuth’s reunion with her friends in the exclusive clip, above.

Today my sister and I were talking about how Kirk is hugely mischaracterized by most media and we came to the realization that Kirk is way less like Zapp Branigan and INFINITELY more like Mabel Pines

So I’m on AO3 and I see a lot of people who put “I do not own [insert fandom here]” before their story.

Like, I came on this site to read FAN fiction. This is a FAN fiction site. I’m fully aware that you don’t own the fandom or the characters. That’s why it’s called FAN FICTION.

me: well my straight friends from middle school all said I am asexual, and I don’t have a problem per se with the label, because it kind of does represent my feelings towards sexuality, I just don’t know what to do with myself right now. am I the only person like this? where are the other asexual people?

lgbt tumblr blogs: Asexuality is a thing, and part of the lgbt+ community!

me: fuckin sweet

ace discourse: Not So Fast! you’re not Gay Enough™ for us to include you in the ingroup of Historically Oppressed Gays And Trans People. since youre not Gay Enough™ by our standards, you’re one of The Straights™ so we're excluding you and all asexuals who arent Gay Enough™ from our community, because youre Straight™

me: but I literally was just excluded from the privileged group The Straights™ by literal privileged Straight people. where do I go now?

bi people, from under the bus: hey
