remaking since last post entirely died out and its a new month anyways. my wife and i r two disabled Black trans people living in texas, where we are both unable to find or maintain gainful employment due to our disabilities. we are entirely reliant on community support for all of our living expenses, including the bulk of cost to manage our conditions. please please consider finding it in ur heart to spare us a little. my links are here (we have a shared patreon, ko-fi n registry). my wife is also actively crowdfunding to pay our rent, so anything sent her way helps too. thanks for reading this far if u havent scrolled yet, and for hopefully rbing (WITHOUT ADDING ANY TAGS FOR FUCKS SAKE PLEASE) and/or donating if u have it to spare 🧡
I drew some creatures for an exhibition at beloved local queer bar the Bearded Tit, loosely based on my fellow bar-goers.
nvm i'm not normal i'm actually losing it
17th- and 18th-century tiles decorated with representations of disabled people. From Barcelona, Catalonia. Museu d'Història de Barcelona: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.
This tiles are "rajoles d'ofici" (meaning "job tiles" in Catalan language), a typical kind of decorated tiles that were very common in Catalonia between the 16th and 19th centuries, and which have become one of the most iconic examples of Catalan folk art. "Job tiles" are called this way because very often they represented people working, but they also represent people taking part in festivities, hobbies, or many other activities from daily life, as well as animals and workplaces. Thousands of these tiles have been preserved, and thanks to them we can see snippets of life a few centuries ago. (You can find more information and examples of these tiles in this previous post.)
looking back is like staring into the sun
