I'm messing around with my printer and made these tokens for an upcoming Cultos Innombrables campaign set in the mythos of the Sixth History!!

They're rough but they're the first tests! I'm hoping they'll look nicer with the least amount of filament possible.

When I was first listening to the podcast and Michael the Spiral showed up I always imagined him looking like the classic circus ringleader type. He was dumpy and wore a tuxedo and had a thin twirly mustache and a tophat and cane. Then I stepped into the fandom and saw White Blond Twink Michael the Spiral and was like WOW we all went to different places apparently :)

why is the entire conversation about trans men's oppression about how trans men are treated when nobody knows we're trans men

Adult life is full of so many filters you need to change out. You’re probably forgetting to change out a filter right now.

going on testosterone doesn't make you a man if you don't want to be one. going on estrogen doesn't make you a woman if you don't want to be one. "hormones = gender" isn't any better when it's being said to nonbinary+genderqueer people who chose their hormones. if your attempts to defend binary trans people lead you to fuck over abinary trans people your attempts suck ass

I just saw a post talking about “transintersex” people. The time of this post was angry, sarcastic, and derogatory.

Now, the reason for that anger is legitimate: if you are perisex, meaning you are not intersex, you cannot “transition” into being intersex. There is indeed a history of trans folks misusing intersex terminology while also managing to completely ignore and dismiss actual intersex people.

Now, that said:

Some trans people do in fact want a mix of sex traits. This is not intersexist on its own. It is perfectly ok to want a dick and a vagina, for example. But this does not make you intersex. You cannot transition to become intersex.

If you personally have been identifying as transintersex, I understand that you are probably just trying to find a word that describes your experience. Unfortunately, you’ve been causing harm to our intersex siblings. Fortunately, there’s already a word for how you feel that has been around since 1996 and that doesn’t appropriate from or harm intersex people:

Salmacian.

This identity is for anyone who wants mixed genitals.

If you don’t want mixed genitals, and just want other mixed features, then nonbinary, agender, bigender, genderless, genderqueer or neutrois may work for you.

Stop appropriating intersex language.

It's always weird to me whenever I see people saying "all you really need is like a minimum or 3 or 4 products" when it comes to makeup or skincare for your face because like.

IDK. Maybe it's because I was raised by [largely black] feminists. Maybe it's because I was raised in an environment where there is a religious objection to makeup. Maybe it's because the significant majority of my friends both growing up and even nowadays don't wear makeup unless they are deliberately trying to make a statement or draw attention to the fact that they're wearing makeup. Maybe it's because the only times I've ever worn makeup were due to ballet competitions and I had to be pinned down and forced to wear it.

Anyway the minimum anyone, literally anyone, ever needs is a clean washcloth and clean, warm water. UV protection if you'll be out in the sun. And if you're experiencing anything literally any skin issue, talk to a dermatologist about products that may help alleviate your symptoms, including oral medication.

You wanna wear makeup? Wear makeup idgaf. But "the minimum you need is a good foundation and-" no. The minimum you need is to clean your face with water. If you're finding that's not helping your skin, and it's a chronic problem? You probably have a health problem you need to talk to a doctor about.

The way you change your immediate reactions to things is that you catch yourself having an uncharitable/bigoted/overly judgmental thought and you catch it and replace it and then you do that a hundred times a day for your whole life and eventually one day like five years later you realize that you think differently now and you’ll always be working on something but that’s how life goes and that’s fine.
