Dr. Willie Parker, who is trained as a gynecologist and OBGYN, is a hero for the pro-choice movement because he’s honest about the undiscussed aspects of getting (or not getting) an abortion. Watch how he gives a consultation.
That last statement about regret is so important, because so many people don’t understand what it is or what causes it. Anti-choicers exploit this by manipulating pregnant people and creating doubt, which only increases the likelihood of regret, no matter what decision the pregnant person makes. You know what is best for you, even if it takes some time to figure it out.
Good zoos do not keep their animals in “tiny spaces” with no enrichment. I’m not pro-roadside zoo. I’m pro-accredited zoo. Zoos are incredibly important for conservation and education.
There should be way more pictures of modern zoos so i just add some more
Seriously zoos do so much important conservation work as well I hate when people shit all over zoos as if the animals are locked up and not looked after
Zoos have been bad, but they’ve gotten better. They have also literally kept species from extinction, among other things.
i dont want girls sexualising mlm relationships anymore. at all
i dont want them fetishizing our relationships bc they think it’s sexy
i dont care if its a “way for them to express their sexuality”. that aint right and its messed that they can say that they want men in the porn industry to stop fetishizing wlw relationships, only to do the same bc its “fandom”
can yall please reblog this actually ??
bc like. im a boy attracted to boys. and this is making me uncomfortable and i want it to stop
and im not the only one ? a handful of people have agreed with me and im sure there are more
please dont ignore this bc you want to keep writing/drawing/reading m/m porn…. or bc im a boy and you dont care what i have to say….. especially if you disagree with the treatment of wlw in the porn industry its a double standard and this is important to me and i dont want it to be swept under the rug
Add on: you can still write, draw and read about mlm without fetishizing them. By fetishization, OP means that you only see these relationships as sexy and sinful instead of just seeing it as average everyday relationships.
Nearly every girl I’ve met within fandoms with mlm ships has only focused on the men having sex or calling them ‘my nasty gay babies’ and that’s just gross.
We’re all writers here so I thought it important that y’all see this and take note.
TL:DR: Normalize mlm relationships, don’t treat them like your personal guilty pleasure.
A year ago I read a post shitting all over self-inserts and Mary Sues, trashing them for being “poor writing” or too self-indulgent. And I thought to myself, what’s the damn harm? If you’re not trying to reshape the future of literature with self-inserts, then who the heck are you hurting? So I introduced Self Insert Week 2016 – a week where people were encouraged to shove themselves into WHATEVER fandom, to just have fun with it. Let’s do it again!
SELF-INSERT WEEK 2017
What is it?
Just a fun reason to make ourselves into the awesome characters we daydream up while going about our normal lives! Through the week people will be encouraged to post self-insert fic and fanart under the tag “Self Insert Week 2017.” The only rule is that you’re the main character!
When is it?
The week will be the second in May, May 7th – May 13th.
Do I have to sign up to participate?
Nope! Last year I got a lot of messages asking for rules or specific fandoms, and that’s not the point of this exercise. You make this week into what you want it to be; fanart, fanfics, mood boards, cosplay, whatever you want! I don’t “run” it, I’m just kicking it off (which isn’t to say you can’t reach out to me for any reason).
Will there be a master post?
Naaaah last year so many people participated that I’d have to be nuts to commit to making one. Just tag it “Self Insert Week 2017″ and everyone can browse your work!
So sort yourself into your favorite Hogwarts house and win the House Cup! Design yourself as a sick as fuck Overwatch hero! Make yourself a rad space explorer and romance a turian! This week is for YOU, have fun!
So, I could use a bit of extra money (both to get us through to our next paychecks and to help us with outstanding bills). As such, I am making a post about my ability to do commission work – art and voice acting. For art, I am willing to draw almost anything (any fandom, situation, character(s), etc), just talk to me about it first and make sure I’m able to find ref pics. For voice acting, I can really only do in the Homestuck fandom for the time being. I’ll break down prices (which are SEVERELY reduced from what I could be asking for) below.
Voice Acting: ~1-2 minute message from a character: $1 (Add $1 for each additional character) ~Comic voicing: <10 pages – $2, 10-30 pages – $5, >30 pages – add $2 for every additional 10 pages ~Scripted: 5-10 minute script – $5 (add $1 if I need to write it), 10-20 minute script – $8, NSFW script – add $2 to any of the above, 2> characters – Add $1 per character
Art (does not matter if it’s a headshot, bust, torso, or full-body pic): ~Simple sketch: $1 (Add $1 for each additional character) ~Basic Line Art: $3 (Add $1 for each additional character) ~Flat Color: $5 (Add $2 for each additional character) ~Basic Shading: $7 (Add $2 for each additional character) ~Elaborate Shading: $10 (Add $3 for each additional character) ~NSFW: Add $2 to any of the above
Please note: If you want something NSFW, please please PLEASE be honest with me about your age. I reserve the right to refuse an nsfw commission to ANYONE under the age of 18, regardless of how well I may or may not know you.
If you are interested, feel free to message me. I can send you examples of my work (since I don’t really have a compilation ready to go at the moment – my work is scattered rn), and we can talk about your commission. I’ll give you my PayPal in the message.
Just a reminder that I do commissions for things. Examples of my art can be found in my art tag: olli-art
just a reminder on this Lesbian Visibility Day: theres nothing wrong with being a lesbian and only wanting to be with women, theres nothing restricting or less radical about only wanting to be with women, and if u wanna talk like that feel free to bring it into my inbox so i can verbally curb stomp u.
(this includes trans women and not terfs so if u were gonna reblog it too bad bigot)
