None Of Those Dinosaurs Would Have Been Alive To See Pangea

Why dis🧒 look so mad?🤔🤔🤔

(I'm ready to draw af fanart forever)

being a masochist with a low pain tolerance sucks

like yes! hurt me! but also don’t actually because then I will cry and it won’t be fun for anyone.

there has always been one state that is more powerful than the others. there always will be. we are currently living through a period where that state is mostly good and we should be happy about it.

as trans activists we have GOT to get more comfortable with embracing the idea that we are a threat to the usamerican status quo. no more of this "we're the real america lovers, we make america great" shit. usamerica isn't and should not be made great, because it is a racist imperialist patriarchal state that has caused huge amounts of death and devastation worldwide. all our struggles are interconnected.

we should not be licking the ideological boots of a political system that gives zero shits about any of us, we should be dismantling it and replacing it with something that does. if trans existence is a threat to this country, then GOOD. I'm fucking proud of that. and you should be too.

I really wish the internet would stop promoting oppression.

Religion is the enemy. Religion should always be the enemy. This is not cool or fun. This is a deeply indoctrinated and abused woman.

Can we just acknowledge that Lottie is the only person we ever see Nat accept comfort from? Throughout the series, in both timelines, Nat suffers alone and in silence. Travis reaches out to touch her after both Javi and Coach Ben’s deaths, but she walks past him in both instances. When she finds Travis’ body, Misty attempts to comfort her but Nat pushes her away. Whenever Nat breaks down, she turns inward, shutting others out instead of seeking connection. Nowhere is this more evident than in the final moments of 3x09, when she begins to sob and everyone around her vanishes, leaving her utterly alone. It’s a visual metaphor for the profound isolation that defines how Nat experiences pain.

Given the nature of Nat’s home environment, I don’t think she ever learned how to accept tenderness and physical intimacy beyond sex. It’s foreign to her. And, on a deeper level, I think she doesn’t believe she deserves this kind of intimacy and unconditional care.

But, in this moment with Lottie, she finally allows herself to be held. For what might be the first time in her life, she feels safe enough to surrender, to lean into someone else’s care without flinching. She even feels safe enough to regress to a younger version of herself, a form of healing her inner child as she lays her head on Lottie’s lap. We see Nat engage in simple hello or goodbye hugs (or moments of sexual intimacy) with other characters, but Lottie is truly the only character Nat physically embraces in this unguarded, emotionally vulnerable way.

Hello, tumblr user. Before you is a tumblr post asking you to name a female fictional character. You have unlimited time to tag a female character, NOT a male one.

Begin.

(Disclaimer: I don't know why Tumblr killed the quality. I tried several different things and none of them worked. Let me know if you have any ideas. They ruined my formatting.)

Did I reuse this joke? Yes. Does it matter? No, because I drew it better this time. Although I'm choosing to ignore anyone who comes between Danton and Desmoulins alphabetically, it doesn't matter because Danton lied about sharing a quote with Camille anyway.

Well. Here you go.

Edited to add: Maxime’s quote is “My back hurts from carrying this convention.”

The difference is that, yknow, the bbc isn’t funded by an autocratic fascist government. England is not a police state with a vested interest in keeping its citizens misinformed. Russia… is.

rt is propaganda because it funded by russian government but bbc, australian broadcasting corporation, npr, korean broadcasting system, svt, television new zealand, radio canada, npo and france 24 totally objective source of informative news despite also being state funded. great work today everyone hit the showers

u ever look at a shade of green and think "yes."
