when I was a baby-queer, I fell prey to the trap of not respecting queer people who “make being queer their whole identity” and then I fucking grew up and discovered not only how much more complicated being queer is than I thought when I was 15, but also how much more joyful and beautiful life can be when you embrace yourself so fully and show the world all of the important parts of yourself, no matter what those parts might be.

cringe culture is dead and there’s no room for shame in this house. be unabashedly queer for yourself and for others. happy pride, motherfuckers.

Today is a good day to remember the 1942 Zoot Suit Riots, in which WWII army members and the LA times accused Mexican American men as a unit of sexual assault and gang activity.

Earlier that year, a young Latino man was possibly murdered by an unknown assailant? (LAPD botched the case so bad no one is sure if it was actually murder) and 17 Latino boys were arrested without evidence. They were not given a fair trial, with accusers even going so far as to bring in a sheriff to claim Mexican people had a biological need for violence. Activists who helped get the case thrown out and the accused men released were investigated for communism.

US soldiers, cops, and white vigilantes used this as an excuse to violently attack Angelinos with Latino, Black, and Filipino heritage. These attacks especially targeted young men wearing the counter culture zoot suit, which they saw as a sign of gang membership and who soldiers believed flew in the face of fabric rationing. Media suppressed the truth. No soldiers were arrested but 500+ People of Color were. The MEXICAN EMBASSY had to intervene, finally leading to investigations. Some scholars call it a program against the Mexican American Community.

this is what solarpunk means to me. You find a printer. You fix it. You ask someone to please take it off their account and then they do and let you know. Beautiful. 100/10, wish printers didn’t have to be tied to accounts in the first place but this is nice.

this is such a funny phenomenon to me. like, you’re a badass fascist designing your little fascist stickers and getting them printed and putting them up to cover antifascist stickers, but also you’re scared to write the word “FUCK”.

Well, besides my incapacity to master Procreate’s shortcuts, I think I’m getting better ! Also I bought a hundred different brushes and I’m having a lot of fun playing around with them.
It still amazes me how much digital art has changed in ~10 years, I guess I’m getting old 😂

i beat myself up for not knowing enough about my special interests a lot but then i remember the average person off the street has no idea what the carboniferous is and i feel better

are you really bad at it or are you in “good at it” spaces

“are you really bad at it or are you in ‘good at it’ spaces” has derailed so much self-hate since I read it

this is a load bearing sentence in my psyche and I can’t believe it’s only 2 months old
