You should be furious that people trying to escape genocide in Gaza, Sudan, Congo all need raise an absurd amount of money just to survive
You should be furious at how these people went through atrocity after atrocity and still need raise tens of thousands of dollars to get away
You should be furious at this insidious thing that completely encapsulates how capitalism feeds off of blood
sigh... at this point Im gonna be known as the weird ranter who keeps yapping about cosmo. Watch me turn these into a video essay. Cosmo is a common toon in the game dandy's world, known for- well, Sprout. Fruitcake, being a healer WITH Sprout. Do you see what Im getting at? Even in his OWN description, it mentions SPROUT. His only skin? Matching with SPROUT. (Not to mention that there's rumours about a strawberry skin? Devs please stop digging.) His trinkets AND ability? Matching with SPROUT. His twisted? Matching with SPROUT. And just uhm yeah... the way the fandom treats Cosmo as if he has no personality if not relative to Sprout. So check yourself, and the wiki (currently all the fun facts are correct, just ignore the strawberry skin..) and learn about Cosmo as a character. One fun fact: he really likes space and stars! It's so obvious please spread the word. Oh and just incase this gets any attention: IT IS OKAY TO MAKE COSMO A FEMININE GUY. HE IS LITERALLY FEMININE AND CHANGING HIM TO BE MORE MASCULINE, CONFIDENT, TALLER, ETC. IS JUST CHANGING HIS ENTIRE CHARACTER. I GET WE HATE UWU FEMBOY COSMO BUT THIS IS STILL MISCHARACTERIZATION JUST ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE SPECTRUM. PLEASE STOP. (or at least acknowledge its ooc and that u don't actually appreciate who cosmo genuinely is as a character)
I love u bfdi crew SOOOO much but like it's getting tiring how much book is ufe?? and its not like there's ever an interesting story or character arc going on for her anymore... Like what's going on?? I feel like after bfb Book deserves so much better... especially since she's up against so many S1 Fan favourites! No hate to the crew, I understand it must be rough running a show! I just wanted to share my thoughts on how book is being handled as a character.
completely disagree with terf and everything it stands for but I believe in this
Women are instilled from an early age with a deep shame regarding our female anatomy.
We're told our genitals smell like fish, that "roast beef curtains," are hilarious and a sign that a woman is a sl*t, that our natural pubic hair is offensive. That periods are disgusting and shameful, and should be kept secret. We aren't even properly taught about our own anatomy- a lot of women don't know until later in life that the vulva and vagina are separate, and that the urethra is not the same opening as the vaginal opening.
There's hardly any research into female-specific medical conditions. Nearly 10% (1 in 10) women are afflicted with endometriosis, yet there's literally no research on what causes it. PCOS is also under-researched. It's all shoved under the rug, too stigmatised to be discussed.
While boys can talk freely about their dick and balls, the words "vagina" or "vulva," are still treated like a humiliating joke at best, and a vulgar obscenity at worst.
Men talk with pride about their genitals. To "grow a set" = to start acting tough and assertive. To "have big balls" = to be brave. "Big dick energy" = to be a charismatic "alpha" that commands attention.
Meanwhile, there are no positive cultural connotations regarding the vulva/vagina. Even "serving cunt" is used as a tongue-in-cheek memetic joke.
I think it's very predatory that shame, disgust and aversion about having a vagina/vulva is marketed as a sign that a girl/woman is dysphoric. That it should just be censored and called a "front hole" or a "bonus hole," to avoid the stigma. It's a cultural by-product of the crushing misogyny imbedded into society.
MOST women grow up feeling shame about having a vulva/vagina, and have to put conscious effort into unlearning that shame.
wait I actually love this sm Dr. deathray please cure me
I wrote this song about mania and psychosis.
I deal a lot with mental health issues, and this song directly deals with the powerful feeling mania gives, but I also go into my issues with delusions and the damage I can and have caused.
Music has always been an escape.
im so happy I could help you feel more comfortable in drawing cosmo how you see him ! :]]
Cosmo is my favourite character. He's sweet, caring, oblivious to jokes, a little too nervous for his own good, and very self-sacrificial (why does nobody talk about this part?) Since I'm one of the rare cosmo fans who like him for who he is-or just rare cosmo fan period since they don't exist unless they like fruitcake...- I DESPISE mischaracterization of him, especially by people who don't even like him that much. People (not even cosmo fans) get enraged when Cosmo is even REMOTELY feminine... despite him obviously being a feminine guy in cannon. No, it's not making him an uwu femboy to draw him with his literally cannon cute asf stockings. It's okay for him to be a Twink... Anyways, not everybody overreacts like that but some people who hate it try to be different by going the complete opposite, even if it means changing his entire fucking character. YOU ARE STILL MISCHARACTERIZING COSMO. I see him turned into a very masculine, confident, snarly guy and people go "Wow! finally an accurate Cosmo!)
... DO YOU EVEN KNOW WHO COSMO IS?? Like I'm fine with OOC but own up to it. And if suddenly the fandom can handle OOC, then we all need to give Junepa0 a huge apology.
Oh right and side note, people who like top Cosmo always feel the need to completely change his personality and make him taller, like... just make an oc at this point. You don't need to change his character to make him a 'top', at that point, just don't.
is killing unborn babies genocide too
Bro help idk if I should respect mosquitoes bc everyone deserves to live and killing them is genocide and hate crime or if they're a metaphor for capitalism bc the mfs feed from your blood (in an unaesthetic way), can make you sick to death and they mock at your face laughing at you destroying your house trying to clap-kill them watching how you intoxicate w the spray thingy that doesn't kill them either so you sit there on your bed half-fainted but you can't sleep neither bc of the noise while they fly away totally harmless, fat of blood gluttony and ready to suck your neighbor too.
If you're a "neurodivergent safe space" are you normal about people with NPD? Are you normal about systems? People with psychosis?
If you only mean adhd and autism, make yourself clear.
