@Kusimanse "FOIA" that's when you make pate by feeding geese right?

@obscurestar Yeah, exactly in this case.

I was riffing off how I think a lot of transphobia is *literally* conservatism; trans folk are seen as dodging a kinda shitty game which we don't necessarily like, but which we all do because that's what we've always done (and if we're doing it, then clearly it has to be morally good and something we can't possibly challenge, right?). Real southern way of viewing the world, right?

So that got me thinking about how I was treated sort of as a girl (for being bad at sports, reading, etc) while simultaneously being required to be a boy (and stuff you could stereotype as boy stuff like climbing everything, cycling anywhere I could get to, actually being cranky, etc instead got dismissed) and having girlhood off limits (partly because girls are "supposed to be" pretty and even tempered and I was repeatedly told I was this ugly, out of control monster).

And I mean that's a huge realization, wherever I'm going gender wise that's pretty vital to have, but that doesn't tell me where I'm headed next, if that makes sense.

Inferno, Purgatorio and Paradisio were written by Alphonso Dante, who also innovated a method of cooking pasta.

my weird kink for [redacted]

the sudden realization that "Death Korps of Krieg" has the same scansion as "Karma Police."

Okay I now have yu choy sum and also my consistent error where I add way too much soy and oyster sauce

Sometimes I wonder how I saw *anything* that wasn't my Dad's thing when I was a kid. Remembering just how much he could not STAND Flash Gordon, Clash of the Titans, or Excalibur, but you notice I still got to see them, unlike say Conan or Jason and the Argonauts. I think it falls into how our taste in movies and music occasionally really overlaps - he's the guy who introduced me to jidaigeki and The Endless Summer - but more frequently doesn't.

Sure was nice taking a few minutes to worry about my parents, feel good about posting art, and not think about this fucking nightmare.

I swear if I by some miracle outlive him, I'll drink enough that my liver will probably shut down soon after.

@frost oh that's DEFINITELY an intersex thing given how I know y'all's bits are partly reconstructed.

@Tuftears weirdly I'm partly inspired by some recent art for Bad Dragon, of all companies - they commissioned someone I know online to do a completely G rated piece with a batch of adventurers and Tiamat, and while it's not stated that (different looking) unicorn is a druid, it's what makes the most sense.

@Tuftears Thanks!

@frost I've met someone with one. I've been thinking if I ever wind up going as far as GRS that's the direction I want to go, because I'm getting OLD, and about the last thing I really want to do is fuck with my urinary tract when older.

Usually I wait till the next day, but felt like posting this #drawing tonight. Partly inspired by someone’s wargaming terrain and I can’t remember whose, so please let me know if I should credit you. Just in a weird mood rn.

ILSE: this is how Austrians say goodbye… * passionate kiss *

OBERST VOGEL: THIS is how we say goodbye in Germany, Doktor Jones! * lashes out with knout*

ME: wait, I thought it was whether you said “Tschüss” or “Tschau”?

#drawings I worked on last night.

It’s annoying that my recent realizations about my gender issues being hugely about childhood standards, not really about my gender, is *another* thing like “I have a penis and like touch there” “I hate my beard and body hair,” “I definitely like presenting/being referred to as female sometimes” which places me as some variety of trans, but *doesn’t* tell me if I should try HRT, etc to transition further. If that makes sense?

Breaded and fried some tofu, threw together sweet and sour sauce. CW food photo.

"the greatest knight who ever lived" okay yeah William Marshall is traditional BUT consider please Bertrand du Guesclin, and Jan Zizka, who successfully turned a peasant rabble into a force which fought and beat the cream of German (and further) knighthood - and did it while half, then fully blind.

Pepperidge Farm Cracker Trio? Oh you mean like the dudes sculpted on the side of Stone Mountain?
