A white supremacist shit head died and the whole world rallies to lionize him, my trans siblings get murdered constantly because of his rhetoric, fucking crickets. I'm exceptionally exhausted with existing in a world that would clap at my death and celebrate those who called for it.
I dont have adequate words for my anger today at the hagiography and whitewashing of a neonazi whos fans Ive been personally harassed by. Like Ive gotten got called slurs by a guy in a turning point shirt here in Saskatoon. Your sympathy for the devils pretty vile.

This is f'n infuriating. The UK needs to stop this madness. This is *not* sexual assault. I hope these moronic judges - as evil and bigoted as they are - never find out what it actually *is*.

Of course people wish ill on JKR. She uses her vast fortune to support bigots and fascists who have made their intention to wipe transgender people from the face of the earth perfectly clear. I personally hope that orcas sink her yacht and play volleyball with her head.

This was a fun episode to make. Ewan Forbes was a badass.
Did you know that many of the rules against trans gender markers come from an infamous legal battle involving a #trans nobleman, Sir #EwanForbes ? Learn about one of the most significant court cases that led us to where we are today when it comes to changing to a chosen name or legal name change.

That JK Rowling thinks the major qualification for being a "decent man" is not using the bathroom she prefers, suggests - alongside the other mountain of evidence - that her brand of feminism is bullshit.
Rowling now wants people to take photos of women in the bathroom. What a weird creep she is, on top of being a fascist. But I repeat myself…

Johnathan Joss died a hero. He was murdered for being gay, he went out protecting his trans husband from being executed. They burned down their home and killed their pets and then they murdered Joss while trying to murder his husband. The New York times can barely muster "fatally shot." I hate this.

This is an old piece. I'm in the process of finishing two new ones for Pride, but this will do in the meantime. It's good to remember that Pride started as a protest. Especially right now.

Finally finished this piece, "Strange Love." Some of you may have caught the portrait of Gabrielle d’Estrées and her sister, the Duchess of Villars. About which, I've always had questions since pinching your sister's boobs is... unusual. You can see it and more of my art at bugsnart.com
