I'm hardly the first person to note this, but it's enormously instructive that our President and his followers saw the message "THE ONLY THING MORE POWERFUL THAN HATE IS LOVE" and understood it, correctly, as an attack on them

Read the whole thread if you want to understand why your trans friends and family seem like they’re done, if they seem to no longer engage on things. We’ve been screaming about this for a full fucking decade and nobody listened. We’re. So. Tired.
I founded Trans Safety Network on the basis that one of the key things we needed to do under the anti trans backlash was document and highlight the organisation of harm occurring to trans people. Understanding that such harm is the product of organised powers whether intentionally or unintentionally

I've been kinda numb today, in no small part because of the E-files revelations that this whole trans genocide was so that the friends of some billionaires were chasers.
I... I wrote about this for my scholarly book. I put so much effort into showing it.
I get how Sexton feels. Fucking fuck.

We all knew the ruling class wanted to exploit us, and we all knew /pol/ was the epicenter of our current political climate, but seeing in text that the two have been intertwined from the beginning is MASSIVE. It confirms a lot of suspicions many of us on the left have held for years.
the confirmation of contemporary transphobia as a political movement has been the brainchild of a boys club made up of some of the most disgusting monsters in recent memory to explicitly keep trans women disenfranchised so as to subjugate and exploit us for their own sexual gain is like
a lot, dawg
a lot, dawg

Weird men who complain about “woke” changes to games are illiterate and isolated. For reference, the game has (from the beginning) an entire faction and its leader named after a gay man and his poem about how being gay and catholic made him feel. It didn’t go woke, it’s always been this way.

Sometimes people, even therapists, have some thick skulls and they don’t really hear you the first time for whatever reason. Wishing you better luck this time 💜

If you’re in Washington I have some places you could look. If not, I’d recommend finding a queer resource group for your city or region on Facebook or discord or similar and make an aid request there. We have one in the Puget Sound area where I find most of my recs.

I had a similar issue with a therapist until I made it abundantly clear changing plans was actively harmful to me and caused OCD episodes. They then made it a priority to move other patients around so we could meet later in the same day if possible. If yours can’t accommodate you, I’d say move on.

Come to think of it, basically every ‘culture war’ issue is just adults trying to figure out how not to speak to their children about very normal mundane issues. No wonder there’s a crisis of empathy and belonging in this country, parents literally won’t talk to their kids except to scold them.

Requiring ID online to “prevent children seeing adult content” is just Abstinence in place of SexEd all over again. And that’s assuming (naively) it’s only used for that. Idk how well-meaning people keep falling for puritanical thinking but boy howdy I wish they’d think for half a second.

Best of luck condensing, just finished up removing all my side projects from my station to focus on a painting comp. Still have to find a home for some unprimed models but otherwise ready to lock in

My immediate first thought was “did James Sommerton write this?”
You’re probably right.

And I say this because it’s related to my experience with the colors I suggested. You said it’s very bright based on this representation, I was giving another example of my opinion about their references here.

I didn’t say it was, I said it’s not faithfully rendering the image shown. I realize it’s pictures taken of test squares, but they also acknowledge some of the colors are off, hence the key at the bottom. There is no such thing as a perfect digital image, I’m saying this one is off, that’s all.

Side note, I disagree with that palette’s rendering, blood angels is several shades more orange than shown there.

In my experience it’s thin enough it’ll blend very well with the yellow if you use both, maybe with some medium if it’s still too bright. Just a personal preference rec tho, try just the yellow over brown and tan, maybe that’s all it needs.

if you're wondering why your trans friends everywhere are a little on edge right now, it's because a story about a radical conservative christian student abusing rules and processes to deliberately target a trans instructor consistently gets reframed to omit the entirety of the anti-trans bigotry
If you’re wondering why your friends in academia are a little on edge right now, it’s because an eighteen-year-old who hasn’t done the reading, doesn’t look at the assignment, and has does no critical thinking skills more complex than “because I think it’s in the Bible” can literally end your career
The University of Oklahoma has removed an instructor who was accused by a student of religious discrimination over a failing grade on a psychology paper in which she cited the Bible and argued that promoting a “belief in multiple genders” was “demonic.” https://cnn.it/4b6g3rd
