skysquids:

i made this comic after a series of frustrating conversations in which dudes told me to ‘learn to take a joke’ instead of getting upset about transphobia in the media.  i laugh a lot, but i’m not gonna laugh at anything that dehumanizes me.  because its not just a show, its my whole life.  these are just some moments from the last ten years.  i could go on.  but also, yay comics!  :D

Awesomecore comics from a cool lady who lives around the corner from me :)

Cosmarxpolitan, Issue 1
Is constant unceasing class warfare ruining your skin?

This is my number one concern! (Aside from whether pictures are hanging crooked…)

If you identify as trans* feminine, trans* woman, or MTF, reblog this.

I just would love to see how many sisters are out there!

gosh this only has less than 500 notes. makes me sad

Or trans* female, trans* womon… sorry the XtY construction bothers me.

Sing along, children!

One of these terms is a degendering construction, one of these terms is incredibly out of date, if you can tell me which term came out of the sixties then why the fuck are you using it at all?

I actually just sang this out loud

Let’s see how many this gets!

amydentata:

A highly underrepresented fandom. Despite a readership comprising almost the entire US, nobody really posts about this amazing work of fiction we call US history.

“US history” was a very typical work of the early 3rd Millenium, often following the Rule of Cool instead of sticking with facts…and of course, as many works of it’s age, following around white protagonists.
But the amount of Abe!Liberty shippers (even these days) really is disturbing! Like most fans just ignore that Lincoln had a love-hate relationship with the Abolitionists, and make him this untainted pure lover of Liberty, instead of the hypocritical flip-flopping anti-hero that the text supports. I guess many people, both then and now, only read “US history” in it’s abridged version.

They’ve rebooted the series so many times who knows what the fuck’s canon anymore.

Personally my OT3 has always been Hamilton/Jefferson/Adams. Their disparate interpretations of enlightenment principles and the importance of a strong federal government was full of such glorious sexual tension.

You just know there was a circular outbreak of cravin’ the D

Way ahead of you all. Just wait until my story reimagining Tammany Hall as a gay bathhouse is finished…Also, otp is totally Bill Haywood and Emma Goldman

Those days when

You figured you had nothing going on and made plans, only to find out the morning of that there are like eleventy billion far more consequential things going on, but it’s too late to back out of the plans you already made.
