I like stories, snakes, spiders, the Oxford comma, and short swords.
Fuck respectability.
If I'm wrong, call me out.

It is a problem that popular understanding of transphobia and how it works is being mainly defined almost exclusively by white people at this point

Bonus: images I used as my profile picture but aren't of me. This rest of this thread is basically my loc journey since I neglected to actually take pictures.
A headless woman wearing striped clothes crouches. Her head is in a bag slung around her shoulder, and stylised blood spurts out of her neck. She's sticking her tongue out cheekily. A drawing of a face split in half vertically. On one side smiling with closed eyes and lush vegetation behind them, on the other, upside down, frowning and staring blankly, with an empty background.

Even more self portraits featuring the colour scheme I've been using consistently instead of just picking something random on the navy blue end of the spectrum.
A seni realistic portrait of me winking dramatically such that my mouth is open to further exaggerated my expression. The drawing is monochrome blue and makes heavy use of the airbrush tool for shading. A monochrome blue sketch of me, a black person with long dark hair. I have glasses, a gap tooth, and stylised eye makeup that resembles tears A monochrome blue drawing of me, a black person with very short afro hair, black lipstick, glasses and eye makeup stylised to look like tears. I am looking off to the side A monochrome blue drawing of me, a black person with short dreadlocks that stick up and curl in on themselves, glasses, black lipstick and eye makeup stylised to look like tears. I am looking off to the side.

More self portraits. Last one was for Halloween.
A sketchy portrait of me. I have a neutral expression, shoulder-length dreadlocks and large round sunglasses A navy blue portrait of me, a young black person. The picture is a close up of my face to showcase my spiky eyeliner and the magenta whites of my eyes. A sketchy portrait of me. I have a neutral expression, shoulder-length dreadlocks and large round sunglasses A navy blue and brick red drawing of me, a young black person with glasses and dreadlocks in a half up half down style. I am snarling and have spiky eye makeup and long fangs. The drawing has harsh shading, obscuring half of my face in shadow.

More self portraits (warning for eyestrain on the first because 19 year old me had better eyes)
A colour inverted drawing of me from the neck up. I'm grimacing. There's a chromatic abberation effect on the drawing that makes it hard to look at A drawing of my face, split in half vertically. One half is peaceful with closed eye and tidy hair, with a busy pattern of spiders and geometric shapes in the background. The other half has a very limited colour palette, wild hair and a plain red background, with the eye open. A drawing of me. I have navy blue dreadlocks half up half down, a weary expression, and round glasses. My singlet and eyelashes are also navy blue. A drawing of me, a black person with darkish brown skin and black dreadlocks nearly down to my shoulders. I'm wearing a singlet and sunglasses, and I have a weary expression
