These two are amazing!

@x-heesy 💃🏻🕺🏻 Friday vibes!

I recently saw a post from an asexual talking about how sex obsessed our society is and I am allo myself so I obviously don't know how it is from a perspective of someone who feels no sexual attraction. I have sexual trauma however so I tend to be a bit more sensitive towards sexual adds or nudes in media.

So I saw this advertisement in my city that was displayed on electronic screens that kinda scroll through two or three different ads, which meant the ad wasn't always showing but would rather kinda pop up. And this ad was just seriously a grown man completely naked with only a surgical mask covering up his penis.

I have no clue what this advertisement tried to sell/promote but when ever I encountered it, it would give me a fucking shock to my system because I was traumatized from being flashed by men without my consent for years.

It's a mystery to me how people can be opposed to queer media that might show them interact romantically or with kissing and cry out about how this promotion of same sex attraction is damaging kids with these over sexual things like gay marriage! Behaving like our media doesn't show half naked men and women constantly in advertisement and similar things to kids amd everyone else.

Sex is a huge part of our culture but it is handled in the most confusing way I can imagine. It's being used to sell products to us, however talking about it is not okay? There is so much double standard and paradox rules that create this hostile environment against anything or anyone who doesn't exactly do what the rules tell you to (ergo shut about your own sex live but endure any and all sexual media we promote to you because we know what you like better than you)

Asexual people, queer people, traumatized people and even anyone who likes things considered not "normal" or "the norm" is harmed by this systematically!!!!!

Sex isn't something bad, not wanting sex isn't something bad either!!!!!

Let people live their lives, identities and preferences however they want!!!!

Let's work towards a society in which people aren't constantly bombarded with a specific idea of what sex and anything surrounding it has to look like but rather are presented with a variety of diverse representation that they can consume.

This whole obsession with wheelchair users struggling on foot down the aisle at their wedding or across the stage for graduation is 100% powered by ableism.

wishing that life were "what it used to be" nullifies your ability to craft right now into something worth being nostalgic over one day

anyway the most underrated part of that ep was Yaz apologising to an actual pirate about the culturally insensitive pirate outfit she tricked Dan into wearing.

Day 4(?) of learning pixel art

Added another lemon to this :3

Been doing some reading about colors and shading

This is so wild because I literally had situations like this with my own therapist!

I mean she really tried to shift the focus on what I personally can do for my own personal future and what I want from and for my own future. Which is probably the only way you can really tackle this problem because there is just no way I can change the current political reality of our world in a therapy session.

However I am still left with the knowledge that in the grand scheme of things my future will probably be very difficult to fulfill or even exists in.

What I find very interesting about looking at how other generation have looked at the future is that climate change isn't a new problem. This shit has been going on for a while now and people have been worrying and trying to do their best to raise awareness for decades already. The only difference to young people in the 90s being concerned about this and people in the new 20s (2020) being concerned about this is that now there is enough awareness and knowledge about what will happen and that shit will go down soon. If we assume someone lives 80 years then someone who was 20 in 1990 will die in 2050 and therefore care mainly about what happens till then. People who are 20 in 2020 however will live till 2080 and care for what happens until then. And 30 years should probably not make such a difference yet here we are knowing that if experts say the sea levels will rise and things will get even more shit by 2050 that this affects nearly half of our live span. Our future of when we are 50 will just be dealing with a society that looked away so long that now they have to do damage control of situation that are too big to be able to just keep brushing off.

This is just a small piece of why I hate capitalism so much, because it has become a world view and not just an economic system. We live in capitalism that promotes that the economy is more important than human lives. And not just human lives of the future or human lives of places that are "far far" away but human lives right now, in this place! Ever since the pandemic has been going on the focus has shifted towards the economy and away from people. It is more important that we keep the economy on good course than that we make sure as little lives as possible are ended by this virus.

This shows that people in charge are not only more interested that the economy runs well for the cost of human lives that might seem more abstract (because it's easier to not care about things that happened into the future or far away (which is very shitty)) but that it has come to a point where it doesn't care what human might die as long as the economy is doing well.

On a very morbid level of mine I would like to see how it comes to a point where capitalism as it is established right now takes so many lives that the system doesn't work anymore. Because all the rich people suddenly don't have any work force to keep their factories running. To keep their wealth coming. Because suddenly people can't buy the expensive shit anymore because the gap got so big that there is only stinking rich or dying poor and no in between. Because I want to see their faces when they realize that they can not maintain power if there is noone left to have power over.

This kinda got off rails of what I was talking about but welp. Still bad at ending Tumblr posts XD
