i really wanted to do this album cover redraw of russelbuck’s amazing album ravepop!! it was challenging and lots of fun!!

the original concept for this piece belongs to @brae.gay!! be sure to support the original artist!!

people were misinterpreting a very common thing that happens with butch women, cis & trans alike, as sparky deadnaming frankie, and she clarified specifically because of that.

also, don’t victimize kayleigh mckee for playing a male character role, something she and i and plenty of transfem VAs… do.

frankie could be a trans woman and still be butch AND STILL be given a masculine nickname in her male dominated work field. let's pick up stone butch blues and start reading, because clearly some of y’all need practice.

if you’ve gotten this far, you should watch this: www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8S7R9R9/

"blah blah blah you’re just trying to excuse sparky's abuse"

he still very much has implications of physical & emotional abuse, but it shows how little y'all know about butch culture by misinterpreting & accusing sparky of transphobia for giving frankie a masculine nickname.

i say all this as a trans woman myself. learn a god damned thing about butches, and yes that includes transwoman butches. for fuck’s sake. believe it or not, the author’s intent does fucking matter sometimes. frankie being butch, even as a cis woman, is not a fucking loss for us.

i’ll keep posting my art on here when i think about it (the art that’s ALLOWED anyway) but uh yeah, there’s just no way i can make this place my main social media if it’s gonna be like this.

girl you have got to get that social media manager on speeddial you can’t keep making yourself look stupid like this
