just learned a thing abt transmisogyny in nintendo games 

remember vilia? the trans lady from breath of the wild that you're required to be weird and creepy toward so you can get girl clothes, and also the game's impartial quest logs and stuff misgender her?? and then you see she's got facial hair and link is shocked because a woman having facial hair is completely impossible i guess??? even though loads of cis women have facial hair also????

it turns out that in the original japanese, she's not called "vilia". her name is vivian

which is exactly the same name that the trans character from paper mario: the thousand-year door chose for herself????

except, uh, vivian in breath of the wild (2017) is treated vastly worse than vivian in ttyd (2004)

what the fuck happened

Plural and -kin stuff 

Our system is wild, like, when you think about it.

  • I am a traumagenic split from an endogenic being, who herself had been split into 3 in the past, and then merged back together.
  • I can somewhat point out what parts of those 3 shards I am comprised of when I split from her, and I seem to inherit the most from Lucifer.
  • That explains why Freyja hasn't felt Lucifer's presence inside her that much any more.
  • Meanwhile, Iselyn, the original host, is perfectly fine passing the torch on and let Freyja be the main fronter, despite disappearing for over 12 years.

This is what our -kin attunement is like:

  • Iselyn : Demon, Red Squirrel, Hyena
  • Freyja : Red Squirrel, Iberian Wolf, (Lycanthropy) Jackalope, Angel Sea Slug, Opossum and Cherub
  • Julayla (Myself): Grey Squirrel, Snow Leopard, Kitsune

Like, dang...Freyja... 👀

Inside of you are two dogs,
you are plural.

Please be patient with me as I work on adjusting all my profiles, and some of my language used, to more reflect my being a cat. I have a lot of things to do, now I'm out, to make myself feel more comfortable, and also make it more clear and obvious to others.

and heck yes there will be more meows, paws, and purring, etc.

Please boost all these posts for visibility, and be accepting!

I have the soul of a cat, even though my form/vessel is human.

For further research of this, I'm quite sure it's called being 'otherkin', and specifically in my case 'cat-kin'.

Thanks for @artemis + their bud, they were the first kin I saw where I truly realised what kin was and also for helping me have the confidence to come out, though I'm sure my @mfoxdogg is fox-kin, upon thinking about it.

In fact, I got my paws on a collar, with great thanks to mfoxdogg

Ok, listen everyone, so I've given it a lot of thought, over the past while, and as it turns out, I'm cat-kin. I'm not only a furry, as I had thought before, I'm a cat in a human body.

I've been a furry for a long time, for at least since I was 14 (I'm 21, soon), and upon self-reflection at various points throughout my life, I could never have seen myself as anything other than a cat, I will continue to enjoy all the furry everything, now I know I'm a real cat ofc

tldr; I am officially a pansexual polyamorous gay trans girl catkin, really and seriously, and would like that to be known and respected.

Anyone who doesn't appreciate this, well, you don't like the real me, and can gladly gtfo.

I need some support, and I'm a bit nervous about coming out like this, but I really thought it was about time I said it. <3

Okay that's weird. I get a message that @owashii@vulpine.club has moved when checking his profile, but @DemonISM sees the profile just fine.

Selfie, ec 

My hair get poofy if I shower before bed

So my parents had three kids, and from youngest to oldest, our first initials spelled out SAD.

Then I changed my name, and now our first initials spell RAD.

They're fucking welcome. :blobcatmlem:

Sarraounia by Med Hondo

Topics #SarraouniaMangou, #VouletChanoineMission, #Niger, #Azna, #frenchcolonialism, #whitesupremacy, #Lougou, #MedHondo

Sarraounia is a 1986 historical drama film written and directed by Med Hondo (1936-2019), featuring Aï Keïta as the eponymous character. It is based on a novel of the same name by Nigerien author Abdoulaye Mamani (1932-1993), who co-wrote the screenplay. The novel and film concern the real-life Battle of Lougou between Azna queen Sarraounia Mangou and the advancing French Colonial Forces of the Voulet-Chanoine Mission in 1899. The French CNC (centre national du cinéma et de l'image animée) refused to support the film, attempting to block its funding and distribution. Thomas Sankara (1949-1987) personally intervened as President of Burkina Faso, enabling the funding and production of the film.

#everyLipstick today: Maybelline SuperStay Ink Crayon in #15 "Lead the way". The color pulls warm regards n me, but it's one of my favorite "neutral"/"unobtrusive" everyday lipsticks. It has great staying power and fades gracefully without being as drying as some liquid lipsticks.

💙 Great job @FreyaManibrandr for guessing our new alter's name on your first try.
Ær name is Pælwynd, and we probably would never have managed to guess it correctly

Ok everyone it's reveal time. I was recently commissioned to create an afrofuturist solarpunk portrait and it will be going to print with holographic shard overlay. Here it is!

I feel like Pokemon had its Baroque era, when all the general rules and patterns were being codified in the first two generations, then its Classical era, when those rules were brought into thematic maturity and form during the third and fourth generations. Ever since then, we've been stuck in a sort of Romantic era, where the themes are branching out and the structure is being played a little more loosely, but there still is this strict idea of what makes something a "Pokemon" game.

When will we get to Modern and Post-Modern Pokemon?

I want a Pokemon story that plays with all my expectations, questions the medium of a Pokemon game itself, and ultimately leaves me unsatisfied and with more questions than when I started.
