Drawing of the silvan elves reveling in mirkwood, legolas whispers to thranduil "dad we kind of misplaced gollum" thranduil looks glamorous and exasperated

I made a silly comic about how the mirkwood elves lose gollum 🧝‍♂️ www.instagram.com/p/DLAoQG2iHX...

building a chosen family is deliberate and time consuming work, but it is well worth it. well worth it.

The eternal return

art depicting the characters from Oscar Wilde's "The Picture of Dorian Gray" Basil lifts the curtains of a portrait of a woman he painted long ago in her youth, as his friend Dorian holds him by his face tenderly. perhaps, Basil is unable to see which is the true Dorian, and which is twisted and gnarled.

working at this new job already has me thinking… wow… i could really go for it

this is the year i write the trans m/m fantasy of my dreams.

every trans author I know is currently unclear on whether their books will be banned in the next four years or not, buy trans books NOW, in paper

Sex workers are our early warning system for crackdowns on civil liberties. They see these trends long before most of us, because it’s deemed socially and politically acceptable to target them for harassment and surveillance.

Obviously, trying to get queer media categorized as porn to get it banned/restricted is bullshit politicking, but I would love for people to also push back against the idea that porn is inherently bad and an acceptable target.

grateful i don’t have to go in tomorrow 😅

like…. i have a salary job with a cool company? fr?

Two men in bed together. Annatar and Tyelperinquar, from JRR Tolkien's The Silmarillion. All suspicion is lost between them as they sleep. Annatar has pale skin, and his fana is that of a trans man: he has top surgery scars adorned with flower tattoos, revealed as his robe falls over his slender form to show his chest. His pale silvery ringlets cascade over the pillow. Celebrimbor is a taller man- a willow elf with black, wavy hair and warm brown skin. Hd has one arm curled affectionately around Annatar's neck, and his head is close to Annatar's, positioned so his lips are resting on Annatar's brow, in a tender, sleepy kiss. Moonlight shines on the two of them.
