Hello everyone!
I'm pretty sure most new followers came from the genderqueer VA list.

So thank you very much for the follow ♡
You'll often see art I like and I try to update you on any VA shenanigans I get into ♡

"They Will Never Be Shown"

#FatAcceptance #Fatphobia
TRANSCRIPT OF CARTOON This cartoon has five panels. All feature the same woman, a fat woman with neck-length blonde hair. PANEL 1 A fat woman has just exited a grocery store carrying a bag of groceries. A thin couple, walking out behind her, looks at her scornfully. The fat woman doesn't turn to face them, but we can see in her expression that she's overhearing their conversation. THIN MAN: Oh my god, just look at her! Does she ever exercise? THIN WOMAN: She must have zero willpower. FAT WOMAN (thought): I'll show them! PANEL 2 The fat woman is seated in a diner, looking at a little book entitled "My Daily Food Journal." In the foreground we can see a juicy burger and a slice of chocolate cream pie, both delicious looking. A waitress is taking the fat woman's order. CAPTION: NEXT... FAT WOMAN: Could I get a half cup of oatmeal instead of a full cup? No butter. PANEL 3 The fat woman, cross-eyed with exhaustion, is in a gym, using a stationary bicycle. CAPTION: She does this for an entire year FAT WOMAN: Puff... puff... PANEL 4 The fat woman, wrapped in a towel in a locker room, is standing on a scale and looking very pleased. CAPTION: Until at last... FAT WOMAN (thought): Wow! I've lost thirty pounds! "Zero willpower." I've certainly shown them! PANEL 5 The fat woman is walking out of the grocery store and the same couple walks out behind her. The fat woman facepalms. CAPTION: VINDICATION! THIN MAN: Oh my god, just look at her! Does she ever exercise? THIN WOMAN: She must have zero willpower. CHICKEN FAT WATCH Panel 1: The posters in the supermarket window say "seasonal meat" and (with a picture of an apple) "Doctors HATE this one weird trick." The beer the thin guy is carrying is named "bière." Panel 2: The posters in the background are all about how great the food at this diner is. A first-place ribbon is framed next to an article with the headline "Local Restaurant Named Best In US" and a photo of "Proud Chef Grandpa."

Let's Make Toxic Masculinity Stew!

Read more cartoons! ---> #PoliCartoon

At the top of the strip, there’s a drawing of various unidentifiable shapes floating in a liquid in a pot. Lettering on top of the drawing, in cheerfully cartoony letters, says “Toxic Masculinity Stew.” Panel 1 A man in a chef’s shirt talks directly to the viewer. He has a mustache, is bald, and looks to be middle-aged but vigorous. He’s holding a long spoon in one hand and making a “thumb’s up” sign at the viewers with his other hand; there are various bowls arrayed in front of him, with neon green stuff in the bowls, and a big stew pot to his right. CHEF: Welcome! Today we’ll be making “toxic masculinity stew.” Yum! Panel 2 The chef stirs some neon green stuff in a pan. CHEF: We’ll start by sautéing some feelings. We’ll bury these at the bottom of the pot, so no one will ever see them! Panel 3 The chef displays a cracked green egg. CHEF: Add a delicate sense of manhood. The slightest thing can make boys feel that this has been shattered! What fun! Panel 4 The Chef mixes something in a bowl. CHEF: In a separate bowl, put ht eidea that “the sex” is something held by women. Mix it with the belief that if a man can’t get “the sex” from a woman, one way or the other… Then he’s not a real man at all! Panel 5 The chef’s hand holding a shaker (like a salt shaker) and sprinkling neon green specs into the stew. CHEF: Now sprinkle in lots of gear of being soft or gentle or vulnerable. Nothing spoils this dish quicker than boys accepting these parts of themselves! PANEL 6 The Chef holds out a spoon towards the viewer. The spoon is dripping with a thick, neon-green liquid. CHEF: Simmer for 10-40 years and there you have it… a lovely toxic masculinity stew! It tastes repulsive and bitter, but don’t worry. We’ll force it down. KICKER PANEL A tiny panel below the bottom of the strip shows a woman yelling at the cartoonist. WOMAN: Criticizing how society harms men means you’re anti-male!

Rakutencho, a big, jolly bird, is the mascot for Tokyo Rakutenchi, who operate cinemas, bowling alleys, and other fun places. He’s always looking for fun things to do, so his face looks like this: 楽 (“raku”, which means fun.)

Very, very few comic book creators can survive on just the money they make from comics. It is an inherently unstable job and it is only getting worse as time goes on. Don't ever be embarrassed or ashamed of needing another job so that you can keep making comics.
Not being able to make a living just from your art doesn't make you a failure as an artist, it just means you're a totally normal working artist.

The thing about universal basic income is: it works. Every time. Every study. The participants, the community, the local economy: all benefit.

Yet it’s still treated like wishful thinking instead of a practical solution to existing problems.

The witch took her hands off the patient's body.

"First of all," she said with absolute conviction, "there's nothing wrong with you."

"The doctor-"

"Said you must be either man or woman?"

"That it's black or white, no grey."

"Nonsense. Every colour in the rainbow is between black and white."

Ich werde nie begreifen, warum so viele Deutsche den Sozialstaat als Feind betrachten. Er ist die unvollkommene, aber größte Errungenschaft dieses Landes, indem er Not lindert und Gerechtigkeit und sozialen Frieden fördert. Wir brauchen mehr davon, nicht weniger.

My goodness. Please don’t send in ghosts. They are very frightening. We only rate dogs. Thank you... 12/10 (IG: theodore.goldenvelt)
ahh! a small fluffy ghost sits on a hardwood floor staring directly at us. but actually... the longer we take it in, the more cute the ghost becomes. one could even mistake this little guy for a golden retriever puppy wearing a sheet with eye, ear, and mouth holes cut out of it. even though he gave us a fright, we would still pet this ghost puppy.

I thought Bebop looked pretty regal so I went to take a photo and she stuck her tongue out right as I took the picture.

So, normal Bebop.
A calico cornish rex cat sits on a chair with both legs extended or. Their features are very dramatic, and they are sticking their tongue out.

I saw a tragically AI-generated version of this poster, so I have recreated a 100% human-made version for all your protest sign needs.
