Dude, that's complex.

‘Butch Bodies’ : a lino print!

I'll make this its own post, because of the amount of people that have asked.

Let's talk the difference between feminine lesbians and femme lesbians.

Feminine is a form of presentation, it speaks directly to how you present.

Femme doesn't mean feminine lesbian, because regardless of the fact that some femmes are feminine/hyper feminine, not all feminine lesbians are femme, not all femmes are standardly feminine (usually most aren't), some are explicitly gender non conforming.

Femme as I talk about on this post and on my blog is more of a community role, based in the butch/femme community, that has a long history from bar culture. Femme inherently relates to subverting femininity from cishet standards and towards the community, making it our own. These are identities (butch and femme) involve social, erotic, emotional reasons/intentions and contexts, ways of looking, loving and living expressed by a community.

Simply put, when I'm talking butch and femme, I mean people who are two sides of the same coin and have historically respected and backed each other up and been home and safety to each other, even without any romantic inclinations, that usually subvert traditional understanding of femininity and masculinity. There's a lot of deconstructing gender and taking matters of femininity and masculinity in our own ways, which can mean as mentioned previously that femmes can be, and a lot of the time are, as gender non conforming as butches and also, a lot of the time, not cis, because sometimes people outside these circles look at these identities through a very cis centered white lens.

Which is why, I want also clarify that it's important that the notion of femme not become limited by the hyper feminine white idea of it as well. That's easily ingrained in us and it's good to be conscious of it.

The Female Closet (Barbara Hammer, 1998)

body type does not determine whether or not someone can be butch or femme- butches and femmes can be of any weight, any build, can be trans and/or nonbinary, etc. it’s okay. we are allowed to exist just as we are.

He realized his dogs have an unusual skill. Now he uses them to help save turtles.

[ID: Three images total Image 1: A dark brown setter dog that is wet and standing in a field holding a turtle upside down in it’s mouth. Image 2: A man with grey hair standing in a field in an orange safety jacket wearing a camera case and backpack, he is surrounded by 7 dark colored (possibly black) dogs. The dogs are laying, standing, sniffing and rolling around. Image 3: Another dark colored dog holding a turtle gently in it’s mouth. A human hand is under the dogs chin as if to ask for the dog to release the turtle to it. End ID]

Someone: Why does Remoraid, a fish, evolve into Octillery, and octopus?

Pokemon nerd: In addition to both being based on projectile weapons (a gun and a cannon, respectively), Remoraid and Octillery are both based on aquatic animals with suction cups, thematically tying them together

Someone: Why does the skinny, snakelike Dragonair turn into Dragonite, a larger dragon with limbs?

Pokemon nerd: It’s based off a Korean legend about a serpentine creature that can become a true dragon over time.

Someone: Why does Exeggcute, six eggs, evolve into Exeggcutor, a palm tree with three coconuts?

Pokemon nerd:

exeggcute turns into exeggutor because it aspired to be the best pokemon ever and it succeeded

I can’t find the original post, sadly, but I did find the images! Exeggcute aren’t eggs.. They’re seeds!

EGG TREE

ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME IS THAT WHY ALOLAN EXEGGUTOR IS A DRAGON TYPE

Look at what you did, you gave a dog an existential crisis 

THE LONG, FORLORN STARE OUT OF THE WINDOW AT THE WATER IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWED BY THE “HELP” SENT ME

when love simon came out white gays got hella loud-which is fine because it was a coming of age movie about a closeted gay kid. but it’s been real quiet since the announcement of rafiki, which is not only a film about two kenyan girls but the first kenyan film to go to sundance

on top of that despite the best efforts of the director to appeal to the kenya’s film and classification board the film was banned in kenya on the grounds that it “attempts to legitimize lesbianism”. since that put the film in the spotlight it seems like this should have shown up on some radars and spawned a few “support rafiki” posts yet they’ve been very few and far between

Please support this movie!!!

I had literally never heard of it until right now :O

They look so cute wtf? How come I never heard of this?

Because film is and always has been incredibly racist and homophobic. And racist. Did I mention the racism?

WHERE DO I WATCH THIS ‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️

it’s okay guys I found the secret good Supernatural ending 

the only way the ending of SPN could have been worse is if Sam named his kid “Destiel” … after the two bravest men he ever met

mooching off the government is a good thing actually. what the fuck else are they gonna do with the money? buy more bombs?

If you are paying taxes it’s impossible to “mooch” off of the government. It’s just going “hey, remember that money I gave you? It’s your turn to help me out now.”

It is always impossible to mooch off the government. It is the government’s job to look after its people.
