Christians really need to get the fuck out of the witch tags.

I don't care if you think you're a "Christian witch." Get out.

You all realize Feminists have been critiquing "women only spaces" for decades right?

I think often about Audre Lorde's critique of a women only event that welcomed her wife and daughter, but not her son. Because she questioned it - the function and purpose of barring even the sons of Feminist women from Feminist events. Especially the barring of her young Black son, who would otherwise be left alone in the city where he would be more prone to the very violence those same Feminist women claimed to want to change.

Because what functional, forward thinking Feminist purpose does it actually serve to do that? What message does that send to women with sons, husbands, brothers, lovers, friends, who want to involve the men and boys in their lives in their activism? Who want to build a functionally better world for us all outside of the oppressive grasp of Patriarchy? Especially for the marginalized men who often sit at their own intersection violent Patriarchal oppression, that still happens to be Patriarchal oppression despite it not being distinctly misogyny?

What purpose does it truly serve to sequester yourself away into a pocket of the world, detached from those you share it with? What bright and shining future does that really promise you?

I just got word that my application to Emerald City Comic Con has been approved, but I have 10 days to raise $420 if I'm going to actually go and have huge exposure and potentially a whole month's earnings.

I am having surgery the day after tomorrow and have $0 in my bank account. I still need $1400 for this month's bills, but anyone who would like to help specifically the fee for the SEATTLE COMICCON please leave a note in any of the following:

Cashapp: $GlowPumpkin

Venmo: Blackbird-McKinsey 3300

PayPal: Blackbird@blackbirdparlor.com

And of course purchases through the webshop help overall. Anything through the above, though, if over $10 will go on the list to send a personal thank-you note with some surprises in the envelope. I can only do this for USA donations unless the international donation is much larger, due to shipping costs (yes, I've checked).

This just in: apparently cishet people can be queer

I fucking hate what this has become. Oh my fucking god. I fucking hate this "community." Nothing means anything anymore and there's no rights to fight for and maintain because lol and behold cishet people can also be queer wahoo!

Deleting everything but this post tomorrow. I'm done. You want me to leave you alone because I'm so annoying with my definitions and pointing out logic? Then I'm gone. Fuck you.

The state of the "mainstream" LGBT+ movement.

The holidays approacheth, which means it's time for the annual "has Christmas become secularized" argument. This is the metric I use (note that it only applies to holidays that are culturally dominant):

If the average child who has grown up in the culture (regardless of their religion) knows the religious basis of a holiday, it's a religious holiday. If they don't, it's secular.

Halloween: I think a lot of kids could tell you that it comes from All Hallows Eve, but at least in the US they wouldn't be able to tell you what that means. Secular holiday.

Valentine's Day: They would not have a single clue. Secular holiday.

Christmas: Birth of Jesus. I can't remember not knowing that. A major part of common and public observances (e.g. nativity scenes, omnipresent Christmas songs.) Religious holiday that some people celebrate for non-religious reasons.

If you can find any half decent supplier of sewing fabric, I recommend freesewing.org and will be happy to give you my experience on adjusting things like ease and fit/style.

Full disclosure I am on the Popsicle stick side of "how things fit" but I am also ftm with a "plus size" cis-female partner and have a vested interest in people being. Comfortable in clothing as well as being able to alter the style to personal preferences.

I'm not like a professional tailor or have fancy tools. I crAwl around on the floor to put pattern pieces together with packing tape. Even if your pattern is not from that website, hmu with any questions and I'll see what I can do.

I will just leave you with - if you start sewing BUY SHITTY CHEAP MOCKUP FABRIC TOO

I'm so pissed right now. I know that fabric has been declining in quality for a while but I just bought new pajamas from kmart and they are literally see through. Not just through one layer of fabric either; I can see through the leg, that is, through 2 layers of fabric. These aren't clothes. I am not exaggerating when I say that I have strained soup through cheesecloth thicker than these pants. These are men's flannel pajamas, the kind people wear in winter, and they are made if shittier thinner fabric than even the most bargain bin bullshit halloween costumes. This "flannel" feels like plastic and is thinner than a chux wipe. Why is this even for sale.

Throwing this into the transmisandry mountain of evidence. Apparently if I mention "misandry" then if you say "straight white cis" you're covering all the important aspects of men.

The original post for the original reply was in response to someone insisting "if it isn't systemic it's not bigotry, it's just that someone was rude to you." And then every single other person was whining that nobody is allowed to say there are reasons it's not considered systemic - it's that people don't actually just straight up care at all when it happens.

I fucking hate humans.
