Had a running bit for the first few months of living in my current house where I would do the Bigfoot pose every time my housemates walked into the room. Apparently I’m not particularly good at the bigfoot pose.
(Had the draft for this sitting in my WIPs folder for many moons, like an absurd amount of moons. Anyways, I finally finished it.)
This is literally so iconic
You want gay marriage?
Land Back.
You want trans rights?
You want environmental protections?
You want an end to the imperialistic systems of money worshipping capitalism and hetero-patriarchy that privilege white, cis, able bodied, perisex heterosexual men at the expense of everyone, and everything, else?
Shit's been going downhill since 1492

For those following the Chinook Indian Nation's work toward regaining federal recognition, this is an important endorsement. I posted a while back about a petition for the state of Washington to give the now-closed Naselle Youth Camp to the Chinook. The NYC is on unceded Chinook land, and specifically the portion of land the Chinook asked to retain almost two centuries ago as part of an unfulfilled treaty with the U.S. government.
A state task force formed to determine the fate of the NYC has officially recommended the NYC be given to the Chinook Indian Nation. Not only would this put the facility into the hands of people who will make excellent use of it, but the Chinook have also stated their intention to restore the on-site wastewater treatment facility and salmon hatchery. The former would additionally be a boon to the entirety of Pacific County, which currently ships its wastewater all the way to Centralia, WA, over 100 miles away from southern portions of the county.
If the NYC is indeed given to the Chinook, this will be an important statement that can be used to pressure the U.S. government to restore their federal recognition. To find out ways you can help the Chinook in this effort, please visit ChinookJustice.org.
Has anyone else seen those videos of gender affirming surgeons “rating” trans people’s femininity/masculinity? Like they’ll stitch a video of a trans person documenting their transition and the surgeon will be like “Their face has perfectly feminized/masculinized” or “Even after the effects of hrt, their face is still masc/fem so I may reccomend getting facial feminization/masculinization surgery to really seal it”. And every time I see one of these I can’t think anything other than wait what???? Not only are you giving extremely unnecessary advice, but openly posting whether they are “passing” enough for you? Also just the assumption that all trans people want to be strictly masc and fem? That those are the only two options and that trans men/transmascs must be the epitome of masculine and transfems/ trans women must be the epitome of femininity? And it’s not like them stitching or reacting to their clients either, from what I’ve seen it’s mostly just random trans people who did not ask for this.
It feels like they are just looking at trans people like specimens to fix and perfect and force them into their neat little boxes on what they consider is a “complete medical transition” and “complete masculinity/femininity”. In the videos they act like they are the deciders of what is considered a masculine or feminine “look”. They always go out of their way to say how much of a trans ally they are and how they are helping trans people out too.
Also, never seen one about androgynous medical transitions. I have however seen them try to frame nonbinary people as trans men and trans women and force femininity/masculinity on them through “advice”.
Just because you work in trans healthcare and call yourself an “ally” doesn’t mean you are. Especially if you do shit like this. You don’t get a pass just because of your job.

Part of the reason I'm so adamant about encouraging people to get comfortable with bugs, my own interests aside, is because we cannot have a bright, solarpunk future without them.
A green future is not a bugless future. It is, in fact, a fairly bugful future. If you care about ecological stability, then you need to start with bugs, because they're the most at risk with our current use of pesticides.
