re-introduction*

I'm a witchy trans lady, tabletop rpg nerd, femslash enthusiast

this is mostly a place for chill community to recover from doing intensive activism things all day irl that I don't talk about because pseudonymity is important to me

mutuals can hug and pet me without asking; I'm a cuddly fangbeast

I want to see art of cute ladies and enbies holding hands, making out, and being badasses

and chat about witcheing, RPGs, femslash, feels and learn about y'all and be sparkle magic friends

this place reminds me I'm not alone when irl peeps don't share my values

* no hashtag because I don't want to be discovered by hashtag tyvm

Tired: Porg Porn

Wired: Porg POGS

probably birth order also affects your Elemental Gender

So I'm finally getting around to planning that RPG, and I want some cultures with rigid gender norms that do not at all line up with the male/female binary (mostly to bludgeon cis players over the head with gender-non-conforming feelings).

I'm curious if y'all have ideas!

For instance:
1. The Classical Elements are the genders, you get assigned an Element based on your parents' Elements; each has a dress code, stereotypes, social roles, etc

2. Dwarves are agender and comedically bad at gender expectations. I think they might also reproduce by carving children out of stone together

Yes, napping *is* my solution to everything

Gundam Wank

(this has been a loving subtoot; fandom wankery is welcome in my mentions, please continue)

The set up is compelling: young women are made to sacrifice their bodies to preserve this shitty society, and entities keep coming in trying to destroy the center of the shitty society.

We were so excited waiting for them to realize they should be siding with the invaders, overthrowing the patriarchy that made them sacrifice their bodies to perpetuate it.

But nope. It's all played totally straight. Woo status quo.

We started getting a nagging feeling this might happen, so we each got a miniature table to set near us as we watched the final episode.

By the end, all tables were flipped

Femslash movie (technically miniseries):
Dagger Kiss

It's so ridiculous. The review that sold me on it was "the acting and the plot are so bad, you think it's going to be porn, but it's not porn!"

Anyone have anime recommendations to watch with my nerd kru? We've enjoyed:
School Live
Higurashi When They Cry
Madoka Magicka

And we HATED Yuki Yuna is a Hero

I think I'm going to go for these two:

Radical Feminist coloring book, proceeds go to a nonprofit fighting domestic violence: https://www.etsy.com/listing/504909767/radical-feminist-coloring-book

Riot Grrrl versions of Disney princesses: https://www.etsy.com/listing/485863658/riot-grrrl-feminist-heroines-coloring

Does anyone have recommendations for affirming, feminist coloring books? Cats are a plus. A mix of angry feminism and comfort/validation would be perfect.

I plan to celebrate the eclipse while soaking in my favorite hot spring in the mountains, which I renamed "Coven's Cauldron" one morning while cackling there with my witches

these toots brought to you by my missing parasol...

is this how Kryptonians felt about their red sun? did they know how much it was holding them back?

let alone enough of the ingredients to LAUNCH IT INTO THE WRETCHED SUN AND END ITS SEARING TERROR FOREVER

FSA will reimburse me for buying commercial sunscreen, but not for the ingredients to make my own anti-sunlight potion <|:(

actual me: A workshop for helping with impostor syndrome? I don't know if I should go; I'm not sure I *really* have impostor syndrome

a GAY HULK twitter account,

but it's just the Hulk doing normal Hulk things, because he happens to be gay

#NetNeutrality
Uniting social justice activists fighting the crucial battle to keep open the infrastructure of dissent, social organizing, and education
with people who just don't want their porn or cat vids or startup slowed down

honestly that's always how we mobilize the internet

NN probably isn't anyone's #1 cause, but it's hopefully on the list for anyone who uses the internet to seek community or be an activist
