Welcome! I'm Sadia, a Philadelphia based trans and disabled artist. I'm passionate about horror, bugs, costuming, naps, movies, weird fantasy, complaining, and my cat.
Photograph of me (white nonbinary person) dressed as a fairy. I have long green hair, a green beaded dress, and cicada wings. I'm wearing heavy makeup and an ornate pearl colored nose cuff with an insectlike appearance. I'm looking over my shoulder towards the viewer with my hands raised up by my face. The backbround is dark, but ther are floating lily pads around waist level and callalillies behind me. Illustration of a large werewolf woman holding up a human woman surrounded by a folk art design frame. The werewolf has a wolf face ripping out of the mouth of her human face. She has six tits and human arms, and a wolf lower body. The human woman has brown skin and blond curly hair, wearing a old fashioned german dress. She looks scared, and her head is in the wolf's mouth. Technicolor painting of a unicorn in the produce aisle of a grocery store. The unicorn is has delicate limbs, gravity defying mane, and drooping long ears, and it's fur is shaded in light greens, blues, and pinks. A grocery cart enters the bottom left of the frame, as if it is being pushed into the scene by the viewer. Predominantly black and white illustration of a fox and a rabbit chasing each other in a circle. The lower half of the fox's body has rotted away revealing bones and intestines. The upper half of the rabbit's body has rotted away to reveal it's skull. They are surrounded by blue and yellow wildflowers.

Supporting me goes even further than usual with a new store! Getting the first few sales and reviews will really help my shop visibility, and help me build back a way of reaching new customers. Here are some of my products!

My favorite part of acting is always when they show the hymen. Really gets across the human experience

U know you're so right. I'm wasted on this era
sadiabies.bsky.social
Do I remember anything useful? Very different question
sadiabies.bsky.social
sometimes I astonish myself with my own niche knowledge base (a friend says they like a TV show character's necklace, I knew where it was from and had a link pulled up in <5min)

Feel like that is the real fairy tale shit it hits! Being a kid is fucking terrifying!
sadiabies.bsky.social
police, classmates, school administration... no one noticed that this boy was being terrorized and neglected because it is inappropriate to care too much about the wellbeing of children who you aren't related to.

ppl were really talking about school shootings with Weapons (presumably due to that one poorly thought out floating gun shot) but the real life horror connection is the powerlessness and isolation of being a child imo

She's so beautiful

I had been warned about like HR and corporate versions of this! I am just so baffled by it in school, where none of the work I'm doing affects anything besides my own learning. Really thought it was not just about covering the school's ass for some reason?

i just feel like the center for disability at my college should perhaps be my ally rather than my enemy.

The way you imply so much detail with your textures is crazyyy

The way I want to talk about sexual violence is not the heartfelt, autobiographical exposé that has been deemed the most palatable form of discussion. I want to include it in my art, in both my horror and erotica, to talk about it beyond the exact reality of what I've experienced.
sadiabies.bsky.social
Tbh I don't think enough people have considered the alternative. There is so much sexual violence in porn because we experience so much sexual violence. Because navigating sexuality in this society includes navigating that violence and fear regularly, and that shapes our fiction and fantasy
sadiabies.bsky.social
I always see the thought process of violence in porn leads to violence in real life. Which feels very does shooting guns in video games make you do gun violence, or does listening to metal make you a Satanist.
sadiabies.bsky.social
yeah I'm talking about porn too. It is fine to be uncomfortable with noncon, it's fine to avoid looking at it. Regulating it out of the public sphere is a loss for free speech, for art, and for honest discussions and reflections on the world we live in, a world that is full of sexual assault.
sadiabies.bsky.social
that means everyone has a reason to make art about this shit, to talk about it, to process it. And we can talk about whether art or the politics of it align with our beliefs or not. And some art just sucks. But how can we gatekeep who talks about this shit that we all have personal experiences with
sadiabies.bsky.social
everyone i know has been assaulted, or supported a friend through an assault, or dealt with grooming culture, or objectification and harassment, or found out a friend was a predator. It goes on and on. In a society with so much sexual trauma everyone has a personal relationship to it.
sadiabies.bsky.social
regulating how and when and in what tone and in what art and on what platforms and what feelings you're supposed to have about it when it comes to discussing sexual assault is just a tool to suppress discussion of it. It is another way to force sexual assault back into the realm of secrecy and shame

Yeah I have compression socks to help manage POTS symptoms! It absolutely doesn't feel like it should work even though I know it does. So every time I'm like talking myself into wearing the uncomfortable socks 😂
