“Andrew nudged Neil with his elbow and said in German, ‘Hey, Neil. Isn't that amazing? Isn't that touching? Look how they weep over you. Ah, such misplaced concern. Tell them you can take care of yourself.’"
- The Foxhole Court by Nora Sakavic

When I talk about something bad I've experienced, Baked In to my experience as A Woman, I am not "making my little cousins feel like shit for being women", because I am talking in a space with, allegedly, adults. I am not bringing my problems to children in the first place.
That said, I don't HAVE to make my baby cousin feel bad, because she's already experienced sexual harassment in her life, and she's only 8, and doesn't even understand what any of it means yet.
And everyone in her family can try to instill confidence in her, and never talk about our bodies in a negative way. But she can still feel like she's too chubby, because she still goes to school, and talks to other kids and their parents, and still sees ads, and still watches tv. We can be positive, but we can't fix the root of the problem.
And I don't HAVE to tell trans women that "pain is a rite of passage", because that's not a Rule being enforced (by me), because I've already sat and listened to my friend complain about constantly shaving as a Baseline necessity and how it hurts her skin and she has to put makeup onto fresh cuts on her face because going out without a full face of properly feminine makeup would make her life worse, and being anything less than thin and lithe makes her "less feminine", and ALL the things that can make her "more feminine" are behind a paywall. And I can try to make her feel better, and I can hear her experiencing the tenfold version of problems I relate to, but I can't fix the root cause of her problems by just telling her not to complain.
Forcing happiness as a core personality trait for women is not the Girlboss Feminist move that you think it is, and no amount of gender euphoria in the world will make you immune to systemic oppression.

Last request I realized might be too detailed.
Can you draw Knuckles teaching Tails how to punch?
July 23 2024
Doodle Request #36!
They probably did this at first whenever Sonic needed to face Eggman alone in a super dangerous area before they had a home. Tails probably would get bored quickly so Knuckles decided to entertain the kid by training him.
After they got a home, Knuckles and Tails might have kept the training up whenever they visit (with them playing dnd after training)

Staying true to his name, Kyle actually does like playing video games. He's not above trying most things once either, as long as the game looks good or interesting. If he could choose between a more serious game to play, or something more silly and lighthearted, then he'll choose the latter. Sure, you could play some serious shooter with him, but why not go for some TF2? He loves something akin to Portal. He's a smart cookie in general, and he loves showing off by solving all the puzzles before you even got a proper look at them. You need to understand that he's a very lovely and loving boyfriend, who wants to make your life easier. He also just loves GLaDOS' sass and wants more of it in his life. If you're playing Animal Crossing on the Switch together, then he'll want you to snuggle up to him as you're playing the game. Is also not above doing something akin to the image below with you. As long as he gets to have fun with you, he's happy.

Here is my little piece for @carryonthroughtheages! It's based on a photograph I love from the mid 1800s. This ended up being a fun value study- I had a hard time balancing the sepia tones of old daguerreotype photographs while maintaining value!
