Pls Accept These Low Quality Pictures Of My Messy Art :')

Do u know what's DISGUSTING? It's when you have to remove insects from the only loaf of bread you're allowed to eat each day, but to make fun of ourselves, we call these insects "free protein." And as the saying goes, when you're hungry, your mind shuts down. Now I cover my nose when eating a loaf of bread so I don't smell it, and I avoid looking at it so I don't see the insects...

But that's not important, there's worse. Malnutrition is starting to affect my 6 y.old sister, as intestinal worms are eating away at her body from the inside out and destroying her health. So, I'm appealing to you all to donate so I can buy a clean bag of flour for $570 and provide treatment for her. She's slowly dying... Or by paypal

my brief post about imagining kremy in a gatsby spawned from some WIP i wrote up. and bcuz 3 other ppl also agreed he would look GOOD, here’s a snippet from that WIP

Kremy graces him with a soft smile, and Gideon’s throat clicks as he gulps. “Well, I’ll see you around, cher.“ Without another word, the gator folk tips his gatsby and saunters away.

Gideon’s still left in awe as he watches him make his way down the dirt path, his tailing swishing lazily from side to side as he disappears into the crowd.

He didn’t even get the chance to say goodbye.

The genasi feels an unbidden sensation tickle his gut, a surge of warmth—some might even say butterflies. Instead of pushing it away, Gideon lets it stew. Finally turning away to make the short trek back to Irony. His new pouch of slightly bruised apples in tow. The beginnings of a grin over takes his face, and the flames of his beard and hair burn just a tad brighter than usual.

Thinking about Lilo & Stitch makes me really appreciate certain things about the original + the series. Almost every single named [human] character in the movie isn’t white: the only exception being Mertle, y’know, the bratty little girl we’re not supposed to like.

Besides all of the racial representation, Lilo herself is very much a neurodivergent icon, and her portrayal as the protagonist is amazing considering how characters like her are typically either sidelined or depicted in ways to make them less sympathetic/human (modern media does at least a slightly better job at adressing that kind of thing tho).

So all of that is great, but to anyone that hasn’t seen Lilo & Stitch: The Series, it also does some extremely refreshing stuff.

Pleakley gets tons of validation to dress in drag, everyone always referring to Pleakley as “she” when dressed up as “aunt Pleakley.” There’s even an episode that tackles Pleakley dealing with the pressures of his family that wants him to marry a girl and settle down to have a “normal life.” After the episode's shenanigans, there's a realistic depiction of the misunderstanding of a heteronormative/traditional parent with their non-traditional child: Pleakley's mom says that she just wants her children to be happy, but when Pleakley says that he is happy, she thinks he's only trying to console her as she insists, "How can you be happy? You aren't even married." But Pleakley finally gets it through to his mom when he says, "I don't want to be married, mother! I'm happy just as I am."

After getting to meet all of Pleakley's ohana throughout the episode and hearing from Pleakley himself -after all of the previous misunderstandings- that he really, truly, is happy, she's finally starting to understand.

Even though his mom comments as they leave that she wants him to “try wearing men’s clothes more often,” she still does walk away accepting that she simply doesn’t understand her son's way of thinking. It’ll definitely be hard for her since she’s so much more “traditional,” but she’s finally coming to grips with the fact that her son is who he is, and likes being that way, so she’ll love him regardless. She's trying her best.

The portrayal of people with physical disabilities is also great. It’s not because there’s one recurring character with some condition, but almost because there are non-recurring characters. It isn’t in every episode, but here’s an example: they want to show someone at the park playing fetch with their dog for just one shot. They could very easily have it be any a random person, but they decided to make it a lady in a wheelchair. There's another episode where Nani's friends from highschool show up and one has forearm crutches, but not just because she had some recent accident. No one in the episode questions her condition or feels the need to point it out, the only comment on it being that the friend will use the crutches to lightly bonk the others' arms, and Nani jokes, "You are still deadly with that thing."

The fact that they include characters with disabilities when they "don't have to" makes it that much more normal. These people aren't some special case or the main highlight of the episode, they're just another person. They're normal.

There's so much that all of the original Lilo & Stitch media did right, but now the name will forever be tainted with the association of the remake, which I'm sure will have absolutely none of the tasteful writing and ideas of anything prior to it.

Homeless LGBT couple asking for help!

Hello again, everyone.

It's a new year and we are still facing a lot of old problems. My family is homeless and it's been hard for either of us to find work. I've been working on things to try and make myself a better candidate for a job that would get us out of this situation but it's still going to take time. Right now, I'm getting really sick again and between my physical health and our mental health, my wife and I are having a difficult time.

We need help affording food, a motel room, and toiletries. Any help funding our needs while we look for work and while I recover is appreciated. It also helps to get fresh attention on this post as we get way more notes lately than funds. We have to pay our room every three days so this is a constant need. I appreciate everyone who has been helping so far and I'm hoping I won't need help for too much longer. Spirits have been very low and we are nearing our limit.
