Gotta remind myself to get off the internet from time to time. Sometimes it really is like being alone in the Overlook Hotel.

Y'all remember too that sometimes self-care means touching grass.

It's #blackhistorymonth . Are you supporting BLACK #indieanimation and black independent media as a whole ? There's so many black indie creators making our work because studio systems tell us there's no audience. Check out this thread for a plethora of BLACK INDIE projects .

So do we think it's a coincidence that Epstein, who is apparently connected to all the big name wealthy anti-trans public figures, seemed to get an invite to the HP play in 2018, the same year that JKR started on her anti-trans radicalisation?

Anybody better informed got an opinion?

You’re not crazy. The anti-trans movement is not organic; it was funded by pedophilic billionaires like Jeffrey Epstein who backed a network of conservatives to accuse the same people they were sexually abusing of being the real danger. @madycast.com exposes the truth in our in-depth report.

fellas, is it a good sign when the Queen has to join the army reserves?
Queen Máxima of the Netherlands enlisted in the Dutch Army as a reservist, the Royal House said, because the country’s security “can no longer be taken for granted.”

I read thousands of pages of Epstein files this weekend trying to understand what he wanted out of his meeting with 4chan's Christopher Poole. Here's everything we know about Epstein's plans to dismantle the internet and, eventually, democracy.

Shout out to baby boomers. Real go-getters. Say what you want, but they grew up hearing about the big events of the early 20th century they missed - world wars, great depression, the collapse of colonial empires - and said "fuck that. We're not missing out!"

And they made it all happen again!

My political philosophy is actually pretty simple. If a thing would make Big Bird sad, it's probably a bad thing.

It's almost like every single thing trans people said would happen is happening and transphobes are amd always have been misogynists allied with the far right who undermine the work of feminism.

Life is so unfair. Like, I swear, I did laundry last week. Why the fuck do I have to do laundry again this week?! What is this, shit? Who designed this!?

I've got to assume misogyny is really based in jealousy. Some dudes are just jealous they're not women. And why wouldn't they be? Being a woman is so fuckin' rad. If I were a man, I'd be jealous too.

But can you imagine? Me, a man? I'd be so bad at it. That'd be so fuckin cringe!

Honestly I kinda fucking hate how much practicing gratitude and positivity actually helps lift your mood.

Like, what is this forces twee shit and why is my brain buying it?

The world is fucked, bro, why are warm socks so helpful!?

I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.

Hey, so US Americans... Are you done with your gun fantasies yet? Do the 2A stans realise how impotent they are and always have been? Are you "Never surrender arms and ammunitions" leftists embarassed? Are you ready to give up on the good guy with a gun dream?

Because you're missing your moment.

The Prodigal Son is one of my parables. It informs my personal faith in a big way.

This version... Warm and fuzzy doesn't begin to describe the feelings.
I think it's time we all heard the Rest of the Story about the Prodigal child.

The good news? We’re winning universal childcare faster than anyone expected. The bad news? Ms. Rachel and I have to find some new song inspiration…

Wednesday is TRANSPHOBES ARE TRASH DAY!

Congratulations to those who celebrate this wonderful day.

Also, every other day is also Transphobes are Trash Day, I forgot to mention that.

Nobody is surprised, right? Nobody actually expected the fascist government trying to deport and/or murder undesirables was going to leave Jews alone just because it supports Israel committing a genocide... right?

I swear, pixel art is so fuckin' underrated but I adore it! Look at how good this looks! Look how charming that pixel aesthetic is!
Hi #PortfolioDay!

I'm Izzi and I'm a trans pixel artist and clean up animator. I like to work in limited palettes. I am currently working on Grave Seasons professionally and my own clown game personally. I hope you enjoy my examples of my work!
