When Brazilian graphic designer Carol Rossetti began posting colorful illustrations of women and their stories to Facebook, she had no idea how popular they would become.
Thousands of shares throughout the world later, the appeal of Rosetti’s work is clear. Much like the street art phenomenon Stop Telling Women To Smile, Rossetti’s empowering images are the kind you want to post on every street corner, as both a reminder and affirmation of women’s bodily autonomy.
“It has always bothered me, the world’s attempts to control women’s bodies, behavior and identities,” Rossetti told Mic via email. “It’s a kind of oppression so deeply entangled in our culture that most people don’t even see it’s there, and how cruel it can be.”
Rossetti’s illustrations touch upon an impressive range of intersectional topics, including LGBTQ identity, body image, ageism, racism, sexism and ableism. Some characters are based on the experiences of friends or her own life, while others draw inspiration from the stories many women have shared across the Internet.
“I see those situations I portray every day,” she wrote. “I lived some of them myself.”
Despite quickly garnering thousands of enthusiastic comments and shares on Facebook, the project started as something personal — so personal, in fact, that Rossetti is still figuring out what to call it. For now, the images reside in albums simply titled “WOMEN in english!“ or ”Mujeres en español!“ which is fitting: Rossetti’s illustrations encompass a vast set of experiences that together create a powerful picture of both women’s identity and oppression.
One of the most interesting aspects of the project is the way it has struck such a global chord. Rossetti originally wrote the text of the illustrations in Portuguese, and then worked with an Australian woman to translate them to English. A group of Israeli feminists also took it upon themselves to create versions of the illustrations in Hebrew. Now, more people have reached out to Rossetti through Facebook and offered to translate her work into even more languages. Next on the docket? Spanish, Russian, German and Lithuanian.
It’s an inspiring show of global solidarity, but the message of Rossetti’s art is clear in any language. Above all, her images celebrate being true to oneself, respecting others and questioning what society tells us is acceptable or beautiful.
“I can’t change the world by myself,” Rossetti said. “But I’d love to know that my work made people review their privileges and be more open to understanding and respecting one another.””

“oh they’re not taking away chronological dashboard, well everything’s okay then” they also said in the post they’re making reblogs collapsed (like comments on twitter) so you won’t see the full conversation in a post. they also won’t get rid of tumblr live despite it being an annoying and cancerous data-miner that isn’t legal in much of the world. they won’t even let you opt out of tumblr live for more than seven days. they implemented a terrible photo viewer that mimics tiktok and makes it so you can’t zoom in on images. they took away the ability to view prev tags. they’re making it so you have to sign in with your email to view almost any thing on tumblr. they’ve already made it so you have to sign in to send asks, even on anon. they’re slowly phasing out custom blog themes.
the things that make tumblr at all usable and favored by us– the older web blog features, the anonymity– that is still being taken away. it HAS been being taken away for some time now. i am urging you people to reveiwbomb the tumblr app. force them to acknowledge that users do not like these changes.
*shrug*
This is what I have so far, tho feel free to give me some feedback since I'm not exactly the best at writing...

I used to hate working on Saturdays; the weekend was supposed to be for relaxing, not work. However, since I worked at a Walmart of all places, that didn't really matter. If I was lucky I got to work in the back or restocking shelves. I'm not very lucky on Saturdays.
Dealing with Karen's entitled attitude because something isnt on clearance, someone trying to purposely try to misgender me, and being called a slur is super tiring if I'm being honest. it's not something I'm exactly built for, but I need the money.
If I'm being honest though, one of the few good things that happens on a Saturday shift is the skeleton monster that started to show up. I always forget to ask for their name though.
Like clockwork they come in around 12:30am and go to fill a cart with mostly ketchup, spaghetti pasta, and hotdogs. Then They would come to the register I'm at specifically, before proceeding to pay with literal gold, make a skeleton pun, and disappear somehow.
Sometimes our interactions are longer, and sometimes they are shorter. Either way, It always makes me cheer up whenever I see them. We both have a broken sense of humor so that could be why. Or it could be something else, I don't really know. I do know that I don't hate having to work on Saturdays that much anymore. It's kinda nice.
Hypothetically, if I wrote a queer-platonic sans x reader, And said reader was also
- gender queer
- a person of color (Latino specifically)
- and neurodivergent
Would anyone read it?
I'd make it regardless, cuz I just want some representation
But would anyone read it??
Helicoprion: What if, like, teeth,
Mesosaurus: Yeah?
Helicoprion: but WHEEL
Mesosaurus: No don’t -
