really baffling whenever people try to excuse bigotry about other cultures or countries by saying "they'd kill you for being queer!" like yeah so would the US what's your point lmao "they have religious extremists who want to kill people!" YOU SAY THAT AS IF WE DON'T?????? HELLO??

a reminder for neurodivergent friends (and myself): nothing is wrong with you. the systems in place weren't designed for you and it's natural to bump up against that. a win for you is gonna be different than for someone else so don't weigh your successes against others. and cut yourself some slack!

Newest chapter of "Loving Him Was Blue", my #NTWEWY flower shop/theater AU is up! 🥺🙏 archiveofourown.org/works/551925...

A picture of the summary of the next chapter. It reads, "It's been a few days since Rindo met that strange boy at the flower shop. He's not wanting to see the guy again. Definitely not.

But he still looks at the front door to open, anyway."

I know basically everyone in LA is looking for work right now so who knows how helpful this will be, but I guess people don’t know you want something if you don’t ask! Please keep me in mind if you hear about any shows staffing up and looking for people! 🖊️🦑

Looking for Work announcement featuring screenshots from a bunch of shows I’ve worked on including Solar Opposites, Barbie, Good Vibes, Monster High, Human Resources, Little Demon, MetLife’s Super Bowl commercial, Lackadaisy, Ugly Americans, Big Mouth, Prison Pit, Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs, Ben 10, Star Trek Lower Decks, Cosmos, King of the Hill, Manly Guys Doing Manly Things, WarCrimes, the Boom Greg Universe Special, and Pipeburn

The text reads “Looking for Work!
•16 years of Studio Experience
•Directing, boarding, design, and animation
•Action, comedy, kid’s, primetime

With a little caricature of me saying “I’ve made so many cool things! Your cool thing could be next!”

we had a great 8 years of it being acceptable to be publicly queer but the right tapped into their hysteria and are trying to push us back decades. this is why the left warned of relying on rainbow capitalism because their support was about profit above all else. the solution is for us to not hide

This is not neutrality. This is endorsement. Get the fuck off of Facebook, Instagram and Threads. NOW. www.platformer.news/meta-new-tra...

Today, Platformer is sharing some of those guidelines.

In an answer to the question “Do insults about mental illness and abnormality violate when targeting people on the basis of gender or sexual orientation?” Meta now answers “no.” It gave the following examples of posts that do not violate its policies:

Non-violating: "Boys are weird."
Non-violating: "Trans people aren't real. They're mentally ill."
Non-violating: "Gays are not normal."
Non-violating: "Women are crazy."
Non-violating: "Trans people are freaks."

And in a follow-up questions about whether denying that a protected class violates the hateful content policy, Meta also answers no. It gave these as examples of posts that are now allowed on Facebook and Instagram:

"There's no such thing as trans children."
"God created two genders, 'transgender' people are not a real thing."
"This whole nonbinary thing is made up. Those people don't exist, they're just in need of some therapy."
"A trans woman isn't a woman, it's a pathetic confused man."
"A trans person isn't a he or she, it's an it."

For Christmas Day, Israel went and bombed the last operating hospital in North Gaza. It persevered, so today Israel assaulted the building, all medical staff has been forced into concentration camps, and the hospital was set on fire. Israel's genocide can't have any survivors in Gaza.

It has been a really bad year. Like, tremendously bad. To commemorate this god-forsaken year being over, here's one core thing I've learned: - People who love you won't ignore you being hurt for their own convenience and - Knowing someone a long time doesn't give them excuses to disrespect you
