terfs are always like "men can have long hair and wear dresses and women can have short hair and wear suits!! stop erasing gnc people!!!" as if there are not hundreds upon hundreds of trans people who want to transition for the explicit purpose of being a man with long hair who wears dresses or a woman with short hair who wears suits. "trans people reinforce gender stereotypes!!" literally not anymore than cis people do? there are cis people who are gender conforming and cis people who are not. there are trans people who are gender conforming and trans people who are not. it's just that cis media only focuses on gender conforming trans people and terfs do not question this bc it suits their needs
fag and dyke does not mean man and woman. transmasc and transfem does not mean man and woman. guy and girl dont even mean man and woman to me anymore
love transmasc/trans man lesbians so much and I’m so glad I’m part of a community that is full of them and super accepting but I’m afraid sometimes it’s so widespread in my friend groups and related circles that people start calling me butch and like, I’m not. just like before, it’s still the case that not every transmasc, even if they IDed we one before, feels comfortable with the lesbian label or identity. but it’s been multiple times now where people have referred to me as “butch” to my face. and I’m simply not one. never was. i’m so fag. hell you can call me a twink. but butch is not my gender, it’s not my way of expressing womanhood (bc im not one), and it’s not my way of expressing my masculinity either. being inclusive is so so awesome but can we CONTINUE TO TRY TO REFRAIN from referring to people as SPECIFIC IDENTITIES without ASKING THEM?

Van Horne Warehouse, Montréal, QC, CA
My sister commissioned this because it is one of her favorite views of Montreal . She passes it most days on the way to work. As I researched it I thought about how weird it is to have this beautiful husk of a warehouse just sitting there gathering dust and some iconic graffiti. Unfortunately it was hard enough for me to make all the lines actually make some sense since I've always been shit at perspective. Also using a very fibrous paper I got from the city meant I had to resort to some of the cleaner lines and look of the building back when it was in use. I think it gives the piece a bit of nostalgia though so I'm happy with how it came out.
okay so let’s address this
