When trans creators are subtle, people dismiss the trans subtext as “headcanon.” When trans creators are loud and proud, people call it “obnoxious” and “cringe.” They just don’t want us to be represented in media at all. Because they don’t want us to exist at all.

Uh-oh! Turns out Raine's werewolf fears weren't quite so unfounded! Suggested by technic_bot!

Still a rough WIP. Sometimes, you just need easy access to the emotional support tummy.

The Endangered Sun Parakeet is one of Brazil’s most spectacular birds. Once common, this colorful parrot has been pushed toward extinction by illegal trapping for the pet trade and habitat destruction. Protecting it means a vote to protect the forests they call home. 💚 📸 Kennedy Borges

Really like the new yeen, but ngl some days I still feel the shark kinship. More than anything I think I just need to come up with a username to encompass all possibilities within the Dan spectrum. Lol Some days I'm just a heckin cryptid. A critter. A thing on the internet. idk

To turn this into a bit of a larger topic, personal identity has been a long-time issue of mine. Coming up with a fursona has never been an easy or straight-forward thing. Don't usually feel like much of ANYTHING, let alone a very specific something. Some sort of void thing only seen in silhouette.

whenever those documentaries talk about evolutionary perfection it's always footage of a great white and never a goofy ass hammerhead

Okay, but, like, I'm trying to communicate clearly (because if I don't I start getting anxious about being misinterpreted (because of trauma) and text lacks the speech inflections I normally use to get my vibe across)

This totally isn't true (it is)
