Since the Fediverse is a place I found several incredible trans people which I learned and I'm still learning from, I want to ask if this ironic image of Putin with Le Pen's hair is transphobic. I thought it was just an irony with the reaction of some far-right politicians, but I might be wrong. It's a genuine question.

I posted to meow.social about this for TDOV already, but to no avail.
I'm a (literally)starving nonbinary shitposter and occasional artist who recently got out of the psychiatric hospital and I need money if I don't want to end up back in there. I have no income, and no money saved up, and my life is getting increasingly difficult
Bonus: If you have a fursona and donate $5 or more I'll try using them for anatomy practice. No guarantees on when though, and they have to be kinda simple
Ich hab den #TransDayOfVisibility verpasst aber wollte das Bild trotzdem mal wieder posten
Because contrary to many of his peers Eguchi's girls were pretty but not designed for the male gaze. This wasn't accidental because he wasn't drawing the object of his desires but rather what he would have wanted to be. In his own words:
> The ideal girl for me is the one I would have wanted to become if I was born a girl, it is not the girl I would dream to date, it is really the frustration of not being born as a girl which fuels my drawings.
Given today is #TransDayOfVisibility here's an interesting tidbit: among the flood of AI generated slop that's been thrown around you'll find plenty of AI-generated fake '80s japanese synthpop music usually presented with images of pretty girls as the cover image. The style used for the girls in those videos is very often a shameful ripoff of Hisashi Eguchi's. A mangaka known for his beautiful and fashionable drawings. Why is that relevant today?
Bit late to Trans Day of Visibility.
It feels weird this year, because while I'm technically a whole lot safer than I was in a blood-red corner of America last year, I'm still currently sitting in a city where being openly trans (or gay) is just...not done.
I'm no expert about this place, but there is a cultural comparison to America that is somewhat illuminating.

happy #TransDayOfVisibility! here's a short, hopeful message i made a few months ago that looks at the game Celeste and how storytelling has the capability to connect people

A closing thought for #TDoV / #TransDayOfVisibility, on the less joyful side
Even among the people who love us, sometimes it feels like we can only exist in one of two states:
and that sucks
Some other trans reminders:
It's alright to decide not to change your pronouns, or to change it anytime.
It's alright to try names/pronouns to see which ones fit for you. I totally encourage this.
It's alright no matter when you discovered you were trans. As a child, in your 60s...
It's alright to be unsure, and if you need time.
You're trans enough. Nobody can take your identity away from you or know better than you do.
So yesterday in #Chicago was terrible weather, pouring rain
Despite that 1,000 people showed up for #TransVisibility #TransRights

seriously, we need more than just kind words. help people!
After I transitioned and the stress and excitement of that passed, I had 20 years of what I’d call Glorious Invisibility. I was a wife, programmer, runner- just lived my life. Being trans was a footnote in my past, no more relevant than what elementary school I went to. Now as my rights erode and hate rises up, I have to be visible again. And it’s exhausting. But the only other choice is to be disappeared by society.
But I still yearn to be gloriously invisible again.
#transdayofvisibility
I am privileged to know so many truly superb people, & many of the best of them are trans.
Each day they fight for their existence. To prove their worth in a world blinded by bigotry, they not only succeed in their professions, they excel.
This effort is exhausting, yet with our help it will have an end. See them as the people they are & lift them up in their bravery. If we're there for them, maybe if we're fortunate one day they won't need our support.
We see you.
It took me until I was 41 to get over my fear and deal with being gay. It was scary, also the single most important event of my life.
On this #TransDayOfVisibility I just want say I am absolutely in awe of your courage and sheer fucking awesomeness to be who you are.
Every. Single. One. Of. You.
