How to be a trans ally 101, from To Wong Foo (1995)
Tips for writing those gala scenes, from someone who goes to them occasionally:
Generally you unbutton and re-button a suit coat when you sit down and stand up.
You’re supposed to hold wine or champagne glasses by the stem to avoid warming up the liquid inside. A character out of their depth might hold the glass around the sides instead.
When rich/important people forget your name and they’re drunk, they usually just tell you that they don’t remember or completely skip over any opportunity to use your name so they don’t look silly.
A good way to indicate you don’t want to shake someone’s hand at an event is to hold a drink in your right hand (and if you’re a woman, a purse in the other so you definitely can’t shift the glass to another hand and then shake)
Americans who still kiss cheeks as a welcome generally don’t press lips to cheeks, it’s more of a touch of cheek to cheek or even a hover (these days, mostly to avoid smudging a woman’s makeup)
The distinctions between dress codes (black tie, cocktail, etc) are very intricate but obvious to those who know how to look. If you wear a short skirt to a black tie event for example, people would clock that instantly even if the dress itself was very formal. Same thing goes for certain articles of men’s clothing.
Open bars / cash bars at events usually carry limited options. They’re meant to serve lots of people very quickly, so nobody is getting a cosmo or a Manhattan etc.
Members of the press generally aren’t allowed to freely circulate at nicer galas/events without a very good reason. When they do, they need to identify themselves before talking with someone.
Kizu: She is my creativity! Her name is a reference to my account name 'Magical*KIZU*ne', since she is the origin of my ideas for any art pieces. Kizu is also, mostly, my anxiety, since I'm an anxious mess. Every of my sides is to some extent anxiety and she just got the most of it. Kizu is friendly, has the most wild ideas and is a bit overprotective...like a big sister. She's always right there, when an attack is coming up, trying to distract me or calm me down. The thing with her is, she builds up walls around her, but is trying to be polite, wile blocking others out. But sometimes she can be really, REALLY, too overprotective and if the tiniest thing might go wrong, she's the first to call it off and blaming her for that. Her room is an art studio, literally. Everywere you look, traditional art on canvases and/or papers, but also digital-art posters. But Kizu also has a 'sleeping' room, in which she likes to go, to do...stuff...I don't want to mention it...you'll see... "You're right, there will always be a tomorrow. But the question is, will it be better? Is it really worth it?" -Kizu
I am honestly appalled and irrefutably angry that I have to make this post.
Recently, a design of mine, a yin yang of toothless and the light fury, has been stolen and is being sold online.
I have zero affiliation with the site it’s being sold on (”petotee”) and didn’t even know it existed until someone sent me a link saying, “Hey isn’t this your art?”
It is.
I reported the design and it most likely will be taken down, however this situation is absolutely despicable.
My design is already being sold on my RedBubble, and I have very little income outside of my art being sold online. Someone selling my intellectual property is both erasing my name from the art as well as destroying every last cent I should be earning when it’s sold.
This site right here, also known as RedBubble is where I am actually selling the design. This goes for if you ever see any of my art being sold on a site other than RedBubble. At the moment, it is the only one I sell art on.
On a side note: This is where and how the stolen shirt was advertised. It managed to get almost 15,000 likes.
I’m almost in tears imagining how many people bought that shirt from this seller and not from my own store.
And if you guys were wondering, what the dynamic between Kenny and Butters is in my au:
And yes: I originally created this as a ship au. But by now it's half gay stuffs and half super cool angsty super hero stuff. If you don't like the first bit, what are you doing on my blog? But also; you can just appreciate the awesome anime-style battles between ye ol' favourite super hero and super villain from this small town in the middle of nowhere!
Greetings my cubs! X3 I drew a little fan art of Sans from undertale a little wile ago ^^ and I hope you like it!! 💜

I love this scene so much. Why you Boiling an Orange
This is the best explanation I could come up with for why it takes me so long to do updates sometimes when, at other times, I’m typing them up like clockwork.
