My Commissions are open again! I’m going to try using Kofi to organize this stuff and make it less intimidating than the old system! You can also donate on Kofi if you want to support me!
This post is so funny to me. I watched it back on tiktok, and every single person in the comments section was just ripping into this guy. They were being so mean to Coleman over this, it was unreal. But every single other place it gets posted to people love this guy. Coleman, I hope you’re seeing these reposts, we accept you as part of the LGBTC+ community.
There he goes!! Wheeee! I wonder what’ll happen to him…
A lot of people brought up glueing him, which I almost drew, but didn’t. I suspect that posting something involving duct tape and white-ish liquid on Tumblr is a bad idea xD
right now you might be in a situation that you think you won’t survive but six months ago you were in a situation that you didn’t think you’d survive and two years before that you were in a situation you didn’t think you’d survive and the point is you will always surprise yourself and you will always make it through
i’ll never forget being in university, and hearing my mentor / dissertation supervisor (who had also been my creative writing prof for years at this point) give the most intense dressing-down to a student who claimed we shouldn’t engage with the works of authors who are ‘problematic’ (which at this point in time ranges anywhere from 'said something sexist once’ to 'was a member of the nazi party’ with no differentiation). the gist of her argument was that while it was important - no, crucial - to examine personal bias within literary works, and examine the impact they have on a text, that to entirely throw an author out of the canon for personal transgression was tantamount to thoughtpolicing. where exactly do we draw the line with who we cast into the fire? where do we decide that a person was 'bad’ enough that the literary aspects are no longer important when analysing literature? what do we do with the past four thousand + years of literature - do we ignore the way it has influenced society and all of the literary texts that followed it, a chain of hands linking into the past, because an author was racist or sexist or ableist or antisemitic? do we throw away the iliad, do we stamp all over beowulf? do we set fire to the entire western literary canon? for what? who benefits? and when this has been done, what history do we learn from to better our own future? where do we find ourselves, groping around in the dark?
when people who want to be vaguely progressive say ‘nature’ all secular style but it’s painfully obvious they mean 'god’ while thinking they don’t mean god
“natural behaviour” “the natural body” “nature intended” “nature created” no da fuck it didn’t
“Culture tends to argue that it forbids only that which is unnatural. But from a biological perspective, nothing is unnatural. Whatever is possible is by definition also natural. A truly unnatural behaviour, one that goes against the laws of nature, simply cannot exist, so it would need no prohibition.” - Yuval Noah Harari
Every once in awhile I’ll remember Running With Scissors responding to a transphobic gimmick account on Twitter and my day will instantly get ten times better
“Henry Blake was incompetent” Henry Blake was human and a great surgeon. He loved his kids, his wife, fishing, he loved Hawkeye, Trapper, Klinger, Radar, Mulcahey, he loved being a doctor. Just because he wasn’t walking military propaganda like Col. Potter doesn’t mean he was incompetent. Henry trusted everyone to make the good moral decision. They always did, and I happen to think he was a good, fair leader.
