annoyed at men
I'm starting to try and make an effort to not automatically cede as much space when guys do that.
annoyed at men
I'm becoming increasingly frustrated with guys at clubs getting into my airspace. Like, okay, I get that it's crowded and yeah there's gonna be some amount of contact. But there's a pattern of specifically men carelessly pushing in while talking or dancing with a partner and I guess presuming that I'll move?
Last night one guy was pretty much pinning @acetone_kitten against the stage even after I went as far as verbally pointing out what he was doing.
Also, if you haven't seen The Iron Giant, I can't recommend it enough. It's a sweet, charming film about paranoia and xenophobia in 1950s America.
I want to destroy the idea that art is something that is made by a specialized class of people.
I can't draw for shit, never really learned to paint, can't make music, can't do so many things.
But there's lots of things I can do. I write, sometimes. I've learned how to make simple jewelry. Right now, I'm making silicone copies of penises. And dammit, all that counts.
There's so, so many things out there that qualify as art, and I know there's some that you can participate in the creation of.
Now I see it as super clumsy compared to any half-profressional work.
But I made a gemmed silver jewelry, and that's pretty dang cool.
Fine metals teacher, early in the class: "I know it's more expensive, but you'll actually be really happy when you start working in silver instead of copper. It's just such a nicer material to work with."
Me: "Sounds fake but okay."
Me, a month later: "Oh shit she was totally right, silver is magical."

I'm a leftist trans gay fox girl. More than one thing can be true at a time. I believe in agency, subjectivity, and beauty.
In my day job, I'm an apprentice electrician.
