The gang's all here! I LOVE THEM SM PLS

Hi! It's my first time posting here, I'm nervous, I don't even know how to use Tumblr.

But look, I made this Lapis Lazuli drawing, I hope you like it.

"You can't have [experience] because you don't identify as [label]!!!" how do I explain to people that experiences exist outside of and prior to the formation of specific language to talk about them

"You can't have [experience] because you don't think of it through [framework/explanation/etc]!!!" how do I explain to people that experiences exist outside of and prior to any formal cosmology, hypotheses, or explanation assigned to them

Trying to figure out my gender is confusing. Womanhood is like wearing socks (I hate wearing socks but the world isn't set up for someone to not be wearing socks) and I'm definitely not anywhere like being a man. I'm pretty okay with my body but sometimes my boobs weird me out. I like that my face is a little more androgynous and makeup no longer feels like me. I think femininity and masculinity are completely made up and I'm outside of whatever they're supposed to be. I'm some type of nonbinary then, but I feel like I need to understand it beyond being not a man or woman.

I'm a Person first. I feel like a solar system, cosmic and vast. Not fully understood. Not able to be held. Everything orbiting around. My body is made of stardust as well as my soul.

I'm not sure why I'm not a woman, and I'll probably always be seen as one. But I think it would eat away at me to put myself in that box

something i've noticed. people seem to think the most nature-y nature is forests. so forests are always prioritized for conservation, and planting trees is synonymous with ecological activism. my state was largely prairies and wetlands before colonization. those ecosystems are important too. trees aren't the end-all be-all of environmentalism. plant native grasses. protect your wetlands.

SU Main cast redesigns

I recently got back into the SU fandom and got the urge to do some redesigns. So for my designs I wanted to do the crystal gems in the "Greg era" from before Steven was born.

I didn't change Young Greg at all but wanted to draw him as well. For Rose I thought she might have switched out from a dress to a flowy pant set for more comfort and mobility.

I took inspiration for Pearl from her pilot design. I love the design but feel like it doesn't match her personality as well as the main design so I tried to blend the two.

Amethyst I had the most ideas for, I thought since what is normally sold as citrine is just heat-treated amethyst, She might have some orange from being "over cooked" I also put her in a more casual outfit. I think jorts fit her much better than short shorts. I did forget she was much more of a kid in the Greg era but I think it still works.

I don't have much reasoning for Garnet, I just thought she looked really cool. I gave her hand wraps since she uses gauntlets and made her more muscular to show off her strength.

Please don't repost my art to other platforms!

I’m not going to shut up. I’m not going to lay down and die. I will not be complacent. I will not greet fascism with a polite smile. I refuse to hide. I refuse to give up.

I’m going to be LOUD and RUDE and ANGRY. I’m going to FIGHT and YELL and PROTEST. I WILL NOT hide who I am. I know some of us have no other choice but to hide for their own safety, so I’ll yell twice as loud and fight twice as hard and be twice as visible for all of us. I REFUSE to let fascism win. I’m going to outlast. I’m going to SURVIVE. I’m going to LIVE.

ITS NOT OVER UNTIL ITS FUCKING OVER

i like color pencils :]

A drawing I made a month ago that I'm still struggling with, and maybe a lot of people would relate to as well.

For me it's about my gender in conflict with my body, about the struggles of being someone with a menstrual cycle, the expectations people have of me because I'm perceived as a woman, mental health, and my asexuality. And it's about anything you see in it too.

Please don't repost my art to other platforms!

Quick reminder that it's always morally correct to punch nazis.

I am going to get even louder about my beliefs, to my friends, my family, to strangers, on the internet. I am a punk. I believe in trans rights, gay rights, equality for all sexes, freedom from gender norms, the right for any person to do whatever the fuck they want with their own bodies. Abortion is a human right. I respect pronouns. I believe in science and the impending climate collapse we are heading towards if we don't change everything (which I doubt we will) I'm queer and neurodivergent. I'm getting a degree in environmental science because I want to make a difference.

I also feel incredibly hopeless right now, I want to do so much but I don't know where to start besides sharing information on the internet. It's not enough, I need to go out and make a difference but I'm barely keeping my head afloat. This is what the system is designed to do. Keep us barely surviving so we can't organize against them.

I don't know where to go from here but I do know I'm not going to stop fighting. And neither should you. This is not going to be an easy fight and many people will lose their lives. We cannot stop fighting.

Don't forget disabled people, don't forget queer people, don't forget people of color, don't forget immigrants, don't forget all the people who will die because they can't get abortions. don't forget the people who are going to be the most impacted by this.

"But billionaires' wealth is not cold hard cash."

You fully admit that money is a completely made up concept, but we allow people to starve and live on the street because they don't have enough money, even though there exists enough food and housing for everyone?

Barren ground caribou By: Leonard Lee Rue III From: Wild, Wild World of Animals: Wild Herds 1977

Today I watched Kiki's delivery service for the first time. I cried a lot and I'm not quite sure why. I started reading 1984 because I'm scared for the future. Plus I want to get back into reading, it's been a long time. I cut my hair and took my cat on an adventure. He hated it but got some chicken at the end so I don't think he minds. My friend made soup for us. It's days like these I'm grateful for my humanity.

For years I didn't feel like a person and many people tried to take my personhood away from me. Simply because they saw me as different. Who gets to define my personhood but me?
