A Couple More Maccreadys I Doodled Earlier

There’s a theory that early Europeans started saying “brown one” or “honey-eater” instead of “bear” to avoid summoning them, and similarly my friend has started calling Alexa “the faceless woman” because saying her true name awakens her from her slumber

English has an avoidance register used in the presence of certain respected animals, which sounds fancy until you realize it’s spelling out w-a-l-k and t-r-e-a-t in front of the dog.

ah jeez, i’m unfollowing him now. i had no idea he was picking up the field mice and bopping them all on the head

You know what’s some crazy $hit?

This fabulous bitch

She makes a shit ton of poses (like 16,000 or some crazy nonsense).  I used this lovely lady to draw so much as a teen.  Whether it was some nerdy pose for my Mary Sue as fuck OCs

or for full on fight sequences

or for tragic deaths of my OCs in the arms of a totally OOC main protagonist.  

this bitch hooked me up.  

And with the wildest, craziest stuff that you could see in your head but had no way or resources to reasonably draw like

or this

or this

DUDE!  INASNE SHIT!!  So I was using her for a pose reference and decided, you know what, I owe this bitch some cash.  Lemme dole it out for her.  BUT then, I looked and saw she only has 286 fucking patrons!!  This chick gives out free shit and spends countless hours arranging these shoots and setting this stuff up.  

I’ll fork up the cash, SenshiStock.  You’re worth it.  

Check out this amazing woman’s stuff, and get knowledged:  https://www.deviantart.com/senshistock

Hm. As a hearing person, it’s not my place to speak authoritatively, so d/Deaf and HOH people feel free to correct me, add on, etc, but I haven’t seen many people talking about this and I think we should. From what I’ve seen, we as Supernatural fans could do a little bit better with portrayal of sign language and Deafness (primarily in fic) with regards to the character of Eileen. This isn’t regarding any specific person, but I’ve seen a few ficlets on my dash where there’s a note like “just assume all dialogue is being signed at the same time so Eileen can understand!” or the fic itself has Eileen read lips the whole time. With just a little bit of googling one can easily realize that’s not the ideal way of communicating for a d/Deaf person, and we owe the character more respect than the show gave her.

Here’s an article on SimCom, or simultaneous communication, which is what the show usually has Eileen (or Sam) use, and why it may not be as good as it seems to hearing people. https://blog.ai-media.tv/blog/what-is-simcom

Here’s a few guides to writing d/Deaf characters in general, that I found just with a few google searches:

And for people who like to stick to tumblr: https://concerningwolves.tumblr.com/post/169084548979/faq-on-writing-signed-language (and their blog tag for #sign language)

the suffering never ends

I am sorry for the delay! I hope this will be helpful!

Disability Pride Jewelry

Hi! I’m a disabled trans man, and I have an Etsy now. 

The jewelry is made based on the disability pride flag created by @capricorn-0mnikorn​

All profits go towards Open Doors for Multicultural Families, who, in their own words “provide culturally and linguistically relevant information, services, and programming to culturally and linguistically diverse families of persons with developmental and intellectual disabilities. The families we serve are often immigrants, refugees, and/or people of color.”

Please boost this so that a lot of people can have disability pride jewelry to show off this July, which is Disability Pride Month!

there are two types of fnv fans:

those who have sold their souls to johnny guitar, built shrines to him, name their firstborn children after him, and walk around in a haze humming the anthem of his great holiness

those who have sworn a blood oath under the full moon to stop at nothing to find and destroy the great demon johnny guitar

I’m, I’m at my capacity,
