So excited for and proud of my buddy Stitch who got a column, Fan Service, on #TeenVogue talking about fandom issues! Stitch has analyzed and spoken about fandom racism & antiblackness for years and I cannot think of anyone more deserving. Catch Fan Service every two weeks on Teen Vogue, with the first two installments already out:

a gentle reminder to not assume that all nonbinary people are either transmasc or transfem (some of us don't specifically identity as either)

Here's a fat person picrew! (They're so rare ._.)

- 4 body types (with and without an apparent chest)
- hair customization
- different eye styles (the fact that there's no white in the eyes is very strange, especially with darker skin tones)
- decent amount of clothes (even though a lot of them are just oversize and shapeless, the coats especially)
- face modifications I rarely see (wrinkles! Body hair! Even though beard & eyebrows can only be black ><)
- pride flags

England is running a consultation on toilets and need enby voices represented. https://www.gov.uk/government/consultations/toilet-provision-for-men-and-women-call-for-evidence

Please pass this along to anybody who has access issues, including disabled people, trans people and so forth. We have a right to wee.

The true purpose of the internet

My wife decided that the best way to learn Russian is to have me read children books outloud to her.

Do you have any favourites growing up? Or modern classics? Looking for something at the level of something like Dr. Suess / Reading Rainbow.

like gay people don't say "love is love" to each other, as a slogan it has the same sentiment as "gay is OK :)", it implies that a.) I'm asking for your permission, and b.) I should be constantly aware of the reality that I should be grateful for your permission, and it's possible to revoke it.

Shorter 👏 work 👏 days 👏

GUYS, is it gay to conserve? You be preserving (fruits) with sugar. 😔😔

I don't want you to put "BLM" in your display name. I don't want you to put "Black Lives Matter ✊🏾" in your bio.

I want you to unfollow the friend who posts racist jokes.

I want you to confront your parents when they make racist comments.

I want you to stop ignoring the racist coworker b/c they're old.

I want you to donate your time/resources/expertise to local groups making a direct impact on their communities.

I want you actually SHOW black lives that they matter while they're alive.

"‘If they sound like a man, hang up’ – how transphobia became rife in the gender-based violence sector"

"gal-dem’s investigation into the sector reveals an underbelly of transphobia that has alienated trans survivors and pushed some workers towards a collective fightback."

This is an outstanding piece of Black investigative journalism, worth reading in its entirety. It looks at the public and actual positions of organisations in the sector, and goes deep into the roots of TERF ideology.

did y'all hear about the werewolf stenographer who just got collared by her domme?

anyway, for more terrible jokes, lycan sub scribe

“So, as a trans woman I’ve gotten a lot of strange comments over the years about my body and appearance.

“And one that always sticks out to me is: ‘You know, wearing a dress doesn’t make you a woman.'”

So, she posted this video. ^_^;
