FYI, I'm using spy x family spoilers to indicate posts about the latest chapters in the manga, and I'll probably adopt it to any manga chapter not in the anime yet.

Ooh boy, RWBY Spoilers for any RWBY-related spoilers, plus RWBY Ice Queendom tag for anything specifically with IQ in it.

Houseki no Kuni/Land of the Lustrous spoilers (specifically anything that is only a manga spoiler) are tagged hnk spoilers.

Geno of the stars!  One of these days I’ll play Super Mario RPG with a friend. Was at a loss of what to draw while learning CSP more so I’m like ‘screw it, GENO TIME.’ And I need a new profile pic

Shoutout to @carbonatedjem because I am still never getting over how I love your Geno content, let alone your art from over the years :D

“And that quote, “The only disability in life is a bad attitude,” the reason that that’s bullshit is because it’s just not true.” - Stella Young

[IDs: Screenshots from the late, great, Stella Young’s TED Talk: I’m Not Your Inspiration, Thank You Very Much. Stella is a wheelchair-user sitting up on the stage in front of a massive crowd. In these screenshots, she’s saying, “No amount of smiling at a flight of stairs has ever made it turn into a ramp. Never. (Laughter. Applause.) Smiling at a television screen isn’t going to make closed captions appear for people. No amount of standing in the middle of a bookshop and radiating a positive attitude is going to turn all those books into braille.]

I use this speech and the underlying theories a lot in my PhD, but Stella Young honestly had one of those voices that needs to be heard by everyone, so I figured I’d post my favorite part of the speech here. If anyone remembers that time I threw myself onto the floor For The Vine, you’ll know that I also hate the quote: “The only disability in life is a bad attitude”. Stella just conveyed the message with less pain.

Happy Disability Pride Month 2022!

When corporations inevitably try to commodify disability in the same way they rainbow-wash queer identities, remember that toxic positivity and overly-inspiring videos do nothing to address the real inaccessibility and discrimination that disabled people of all intersecting identities experience!

In light of recent events, I would like to remind everyone that the correct pro choice talking point that will actually pull people to our side is NOT whether a fetus is human or not because you'll never win. The correct argument is how the state should never have the power to force you to give up physical autonomy for the sake of any other being.

I finished Sailor Moon. It was quite the journey... I honestly did not expect myself to get so invested in it, but it was better than I imagined it would be. As my first “real” experience with Magical Girl anime after PMMM, my opinion on the genre is much more positive now. At some point I might share my thoughts about it at length.

Crystal will have to wait for now, I need to watch something else.
