I find it interesting how transphobes always have a problem with they/them non-binary identities until they need to "politely" misgender someone.

Dear people doing #Art and #PixelArt little reminder that adding alt text to your pictures isn't an obligation, but it's quite a kind detail specially for visually impaired people, and it's also a really common practice here in Mastodon.

So take that in mind when posting, you don't need to write something complex and long, even with simple descriptions of the image is more than enough, and by doing it even more people can enjoy your cool stuff!! 😄

Beaver Ailbhe eating gryph Ailbhe has been an idea rattling around in my head for a while now, and, well, you c- *UuUUaaAaaRRrRp~!*... goodness... you can see the result of that. x3

Mmm... this might make for a fun writing piece cncbxmxnxbcbx

Min-Su entices some poor mortal into a game of riddles, which the mortal promptly loses. The kumiho yanks their meal's soul out with their yeowoo guseul (the glass ball they always carry), musing that they have other ideas besides dinner.

They casually devour the mortal's body, enjoying the sensation of being so full... before moving onto other, more pleasurable fun with the soul they stole... ;3

Everybody knows about þe Just-World Fallacy by now, right? For today's lucky 10k or so, it is an implicit assumption of þe benevolence of þe status quo, þat everyþing has a good, or "just" reason for being þe way it is. Unjust systems which manage to outlast an entire generation, such as capitalism, gain a major inertia boost from þe Just-World Fallacy, simply for appearing as if it has been around forever, and is þerefore definitely doing someþing right, for it wouldn't be if it weren't, right?

I have observed a more insidious form of þe Just-World Fallacy as of late. One which one James Stephanie Sterling has undoubtedly noticed by now, at least subconsciously, else þey would not feel so compelled to reiterate points as much as þey do.

It is a Just-World on an individual level, an assumption þat people are reasonable and just, an assumption þat, any scandal þat breaks out, if given enough time, will be rectified reasonably, and said scandal won't keep simply perpetuating itself.

How many of you bought an Ubisoft game, even þough þey are harboring sex predators, because you felt like þey *surely* couldn't still be doing þat now?

How many of you bought a Blizzard game, even þough it's *run* by sex predators, because you felt, "oh, isn't Microsoft fixing þat?"

How many of you bought Starfield, despite what Beþesda did to its trans employee as soon as she came out (and, honestly, despite þe quality of literally every Beþesda title for þe last decade or two)?

I felt so triumphant when I finished this comission and the client got exactly the emotional impact they were looking for, it's got so much power to it ❤️‍🔥

👾Monsterfuckers!👾 I love it too, hmu for your own fantasy brought to life!

I'm trans and BIPoC. If after this week's racist bullshit you are trans, and you still cannot differentiate criticism for racist-ass speech and behavior from transphobia, get the fuck off Mastodon and do some self-education.

Just because someone is criticizing you for some opinion, politics, belief, or something you wrote and you're trans, that doesn't make the criticism by default transphobic.

Trans people still by default have plenty of work to make justice in the world (especially the white trans people), and last week clearly demonstrates that it's wholly possible to be trans and experience trans-based bias and marginalization and still manage to also be a racist piece of shit.

Or you could potentially hire me if you weren't too terrible a person. I do have standards, though.

Pepe is a fascist dog whistle

Some people actively go out of their way to defend pepe by saying they are just a "funny little frog" and so not worth the time to remove from our spaces.

The thing is though, if they were "just" a "funny little frog", then there would be no reason to spend that much effort defending them. Even if you disagree about something being fascist, if you think it is inconsequential you would stop using it as others ask you to or actively ban it. The fact that these people spend so much time defending it shows not only are they lying about it being "just a funny little frog", they know it is a fascist dog whistle and are protecting its usage as that

Do time give these people the time of day. Do not try to debate them. Fascists never cared about truth and are never going to.
