With How We're All Aware Of How Toxic Masculinity Leads Men/boys To Harass, Assault, And Abuse Other

with how we're all aware of how toxic masculinity leads men/boys to harass, assault, and abuse other men/boys, you'd think the fact they can be harmed by patriarchy and misogyny wouldn't be a controversial statment. *especially* marginalized men. but alas, many people have taken the "identity" in identity politics so literally, they just end up ignoring and reinforcing the harmful things they claim to be against.

also if you think the pain of the men harmed by toxic masculinity isn't a big deal because they're men... that is. that is literally you believing in toxic masculinity. like i thought we all knew part of toxic masculinity is that men shouldn't feel pain, they shouldn't cry, they can't ask for help or be truly hurt, etc. etc. and if they do any of these things, then they're not real men and not only deserve to be emasculated, but deserve to suffer. you just switched it to they are real men so they deserve to suffer.

and even though again, this is extra harmful for marginalized men, i shouldn't have to say that for you to care. if you only give support to people harmed by these systems when you think deserve it, you're always going to end up propping these systems up at some point. maybe you should stop that.

also. to any man reading this who feels like their pain doesn't matter: it does. you deserve to exist in a world where you're safe to be yourself and feel emotions, and get genuine protection and support. we all need to exist in that world. none of us deserve this hell.

6 people are in a dimly lit police mugshot room, arranged from tallest to shortest from left to right.
The first on the left is Valkenhayn Johnson, an orc rogue. He is significantly taller than the rest of the party, standing at 7"4. He's wearing a set of armor and scarf
Second on the left is Ian Xian, a half elf rogue, who stands at 6 feet average. He's wearing a tunic, and a cloak with a turquoise clasp
Third on the left is Marin Montora, a Tiefling monk, standing at 5"6. They wear robes, and have a set of horns on their forehead
Fourth is Anastasia Eiksteri, an Elf Wizard. She is out of place amongst her peers, wearing a button up shirt, and jacket with a backpack. She stands at 5"1
Fifth is Kuru Don Pomelo, A 4 foot tall Dragonborn Paladin whose head barely sticks up above the cutoff of the window. She has long silver hair and small set of horns. Her mugshot board is floating above her head with magic
Finally is Vali Dwarfstorm, a Dwarf Barabarian, who, at 2"0, is so short, they aren't even visible on the image. Instead there is an arrow pointing to wear he should be with his name and height,

"What the fuck did you cretins do this time..."

Tumblr munched the image, sorry. :(

The Funny Thing Is That I Don't Think Younger People - And I Mean Those Under The Age Of 40 - Really

the funny thing is that i don't think younger people - and i mean those under the age of 40 - really have a grasp on how many of today's issues can be tied back to a disastrous reagan policy:

war on drugs: reagan's aggressive escalation of the war on drugs was a catastrophic policy, primarily targeting minority communities and fueling mass incarceration. the crusade against drugs was more about controlling the Black, Latino and Native communities than addressing the actual problems of drug abuse, leading to a legacy of broken families and systemic racism within the criminal justice system.

deregulation and economic policies: reaganomics was an absolute disaster for the working class. reagan's policies of aggressive tax cuts for the rich, deregulation, and slashing social programs were nothing less than class warfare, deepening income inequality and entrenching corporate greed. these types of policies were a clear message that reagan's america was only for the wealthy elite and a loud "fuck you" to working americans.

environmental policies: despite his reputation being whitewashed thanks to the recovery of the ozone layer, reagan's environmental record was an unmitigated disaster. his administration gutted critical environmental protections and institutions like the EPA, turning a blind eye to pollution and corporate exploitation of natural resources. this blatant disregard for the planet was a clear sign of prioritizing short-term corporate profits over the future of the environment.

AIDS crisis: reagan's gross neglect of the aids crisis was nothing short of criminal and this doesn't even begin to touch on his wife's involvement. his administration's indifference to the plight of the lgbtq+ community during this devastating epidemic revealed a deep-seated bigotry and a complete failure of moral leadership.

mental health: reagan's dismantling of mental health institutions under the guise of 'reform' led directly to a surge in homelessness and a lack of support for those with mental health issues. his policies were cruel and inhumane and showed a personality-defining callous disregard for the most vulnerable in society.

labor and unions: reagan's attack on labor unions, exemplified by his handling of the patco strike, was a blatant assault on workers' rights. his actions emboldened corporations to suppress union activities, leading to a significant erosion of workers' power and rights in the workplace. he was colloquially known as "Ronnie the Union Buster Reagan"

foreign policy and military interventions: reagan's foreign policy, particularly in latin america, was imperialist and ruthless. his administration's support for dictatorships and right-wing death squads under the guise of fighting "communism" showed a complete disregard for human rights and self-determination of other nations.

public health: yes, reagan's agricultural policies actually facilitated the rise of high fructose corn syrup, once again prioritizing corporate profits over public health. this shift in the food industry has had lasting negative impacts on health, contributing to the obesity epidemic and other health issues.

privatization: reagan's push for privatization was a systematic dismantling of public services, transferring wealth and power to private corporations and further eroding the public's access to essential services.

education policies: his approach to education was more of an attack on public education than anything else, gutting funding and promoting policies that undermined equal access to quality education. this was, again, part of a broader agenda to maintain a status quo where the privileged remain in power.

this is just what i could come up with in a relatively short time and i did not even live under this man's presidency. the level at which ronald reagan has broken the united states truly can't be overstated.

a digital illustration of Donquixote Doflamingo sitting on King Riku's windowsill. the lighting is dramatic, with the moonlight illuminating doflamingo ominously from the top and sides. One of his hand is in string manipulating position and the other is resting by his side. One of his legs is going down to set foot on the floor, and the other is bent and relaxed. He has a devious smile. There is a moon centered in the sky and the curtains are blown back, with the moonlight passing through them like silk. It's based off the scene in dressrosa where Doflamingo blackmails the king.

All he wants is a small loan of 10 billion berries 😊

timelapse under the cut :D

a page of digital drawings of Shirahoshi and Fukaboshi. The drawing on the top left is a bust of Shirahoshi holding a tiny standing Luffy with both hands, she's pouting and starting to cry. The drawing on the bottom left is of her with her fists buried in her hair, slightly bent over with her tail curled behind her. There are black lines emanating off from her head to represent her distress. The drawing on the right is of Fukaboshi holding his trident, looking intimidating. There's a school of smelt-whiting above Fukaboshi swimming towards Shirahoshi. There's a zebra shark below Fukaboshi, swimming to the right. There's a small bust of Luffy in the middle with the text "space filling Luffy!!" around him. The entire drawing is just black lines with the different values hatched. There's a pink blob as a background behind the bust of Shirahosi and a blue blob behind Fukaboshi. The fish are also fully colored. There's some bubbles above the fish
a page of digital drawings of Queen Otohime and Madam Shyarly. The drawing on the left is of Otohime holding a bottle of wine in one hand and holding her other hand over her chest. She's crying, and her tail is swept behind her. Every individual scale is hatched in a gradient. The drawing on the top right is of Shyarly sitting, her tail curled around her orb. She's holding a pipe in her left hand with smoke filling the space above her. The drawing on the bottom right is of Shyarly pondering her orb, Luffy looking evil surrounded by fire is in it. The original meme is in low opacity under her. There's a drooping orange blob behind Otohime. There's a rising blob of greyish blue behind Shyarly. A Mako shark is swimming down between the two, its head turned towards Shyarly, who is looking at it. There's a goldfish above Otohime's tail, looking at her. The fish are colored in and there's some bubbles above them

cleaned up my fishman island sketches because i quite like them :)
