I saw this cute geeky grad student rambling about the red river floodway and various manitoba hydro projects to this girl who was clearly enamored with him, but I didnt really have the heart to tell them that they really should not be putting their feet in the water lol

I keep seeing videos of a guy who catches crabs and lobsters, cracks all the barnacles off them, puts a shrimp in their claws and throws them back. can you imagine. abducted by aliens but they just give you a spa day and hand you two hot dogs and let you go

i call this "neoteny of the oppressed" btw. because children are the archetypal objects of legitimate coercion (violence, authority, control, etc) any vulnerable group can have their autonomy stripped by first linking them to children & childlikeness. the comparison legitimizes any act of coercion

Transphobia and the oppression of children are linked to the point that trans adults are often treated like de facto children. One way we see this is how we’re told continually that we don’t understand grown-up politics, as if our political concerns are childish and immature.

Basically "trans women are treated so badly that it is natural for them to use tropes about extreme trauma in artistic expression" and "kinda fucked up probably that culturally some of our favorite extreme trauma tropes are about sad soldiers"

I made this design in 2019, and it’s been ripped off by countless creepy little Temu shops, as well as by Shein. Seeing it in an AI ad is ruining my day, ngl. If you like it, buy one from me - link in bio. I actually give money to queer mutual aid and medical care groups.

A shitty AI ad on Instagram showing my “you are safe with me” design being sold by a company that is not me.
