dude i cant believe people will argue against socialistic policies or ideas in capitalist society because "it will ruin the economy" like mf I DO NOT CARE ABOUT THE ECONOMY. people who value the economy over human rights to access free necessities are the exact reason why there's a large homeless population in america. look at scandanavia, they're still capitalist, but their policies are more aligned with socialistic ideas and their economy is doing fine. yk why? its because as long as workers are being exploited for their labor and industries arent nationalized while still turning a major profit, the economy will be fine. and actually, im sure the economy would be fine if we nationalized every major industry. luxury items would still be on the table and enough people have enough trust fund money to buy shit they dont need. PLUS i fucking hate the economy, everything should be free if there are those out there who cant afford even one thing. and thats the unfortunate truth we live in. so no, owen, i dont care that it would ruin the economy, i want to see the working class flourish and thrive and if that means making everything free then sobeit - Petey

They should invent a my back that doesn't hurt after I sit there drawing for an hour straight
Or invent a my desk that actually has room so I can have my drawing tablet not awkwardly off to the side at a weird angle
And while they're at it they should invent a society where I can just draw and love and have fun for the rest of my life without consideration of money or responsibility.

I'm so fucking tired. Our stove broke while I was making dinner and now I'm sitting here with sad, half cooked pasta and 150€ to get over the rest of the month AND pay 50% (likely even more bc my flatmate has even less money than me) of a new stove/oven so I can cook the food that I can barely afford

i feel so bad for gen z because first adults were telling them to get into STEM universities, and now they’re telling them that, actually, they should go to trade school instead because they’ll “make money hand over fist there” when in reality they’re just using gen z to fill a gap in the market to make some CEO somewhere richer (literally -- people are retiring because they don’t wanna get covid, so they’re sending gen z in instead like it’s a warzone)
they’re going to fuck gen z the same way they fucked millennials.

CLIMATE CHANGE
If nothing is done about climate change, then ALL life will be extinct from the planet by 2090. Preventing climate change won’t destroy the economy, and I ask you why we need a economy that requires the destruction of all life? because capitalists are vigorous in telling people that they’ll be rich someday so you should be kind to your local billionaire and let them cause the heat death of the planet earth. enough talking about spacecraft. talk about earth.

Every renfaire makes me wish I had money.
I have to walk past all of the things while making sad puppy eyes at the vendors. It's both soulful and the absolute worst.
If I ever win the lottery I wouldn't tell anyone but there would be signs (buying armor and cloaks and swords and dice and dragons and fairies and corsets and leather at every renfaire in a 100 mile radius)

we need to destroy the idea that girls should wear makeup. normalize bare faces on prom queens and flower girls and cheerleaders. no products at all instead of '7 product simple makeup routine.' no more 10 step skincare and regular facials and dermablading and gua sha just to be comfortable with yr natural face. i want to see eye bags on the funny librarian and acne on the swim coach and wrinkles on all our adult role models. i want to see a 16 year old girl that has never tried putting on eyeshadow. i want to see a 7 year old girl who doesn't have to go out and buy powder for her dance recital. i want to see trans women and girls everywhere to never have to wear makeup, regardless of how well they 'pass.' no more 'contouring to look masc' either. a post-beauty industry world is possible
reblogs are on but if you bring up the stage makeup point that i have addressed three times yr blocked on sight ☹️

I have made a meme to explain how Millennials aren’t destroying industries, the industries are destroying us:
Tumblr media
Thank you for coming to my TED talk.
[Edit]: Two years later and this post still gets notes lol. I affectionately acknowledge the math is indeed wrong. For the two year anniversary, have a better graph:
Tumblr media
Caption: A graph of Income vs Burger. The blue horizontal line indicates income, which is held steady at 10. The orange line indicates the price of a burger, which rises from 1 to 10 over time. Call out boxes say, “I can buy 10 burgers!” “I can buy 5 burgers” “I can buy 2 burgers” “I can buy 1 burger…” “Why aren’t you buying 10 burgers!?”

ONCE UPON A TIME, THERE WAS A KNIGHT...
the visual inspiration for this was a combination of Frederic William Burton's Meeting on the Turret Stairs and also Bernardo Cavallino's The vision of St. Dominic receiving the Rosary from the Virgin
this was supposed to be just a one off illustration to get the thoughts out of my system, but then I started thinking about medieval politics and warfare and plagues and a castle and home as both a place of refuge, a prison, and a tomb, so perhaps they will end up as ex voto characters as well.
you may say, hey! that rosary looks like it has too many beads! it's a fifteen decade rosary, probably. dominicans are really into marian devotions. it works out.
also. spiral style stair cases. oh boy. it was that unexpectedly more difficult than I originally thought it would be to draw. the more I think about it, the less I understand them, even though I had a million photos of the stairs in front of me while I was drawing it.
⭐ I have a tip jar (ko-fi)!
⭐ and other places I’m at! bsky / pixiv / pillowfort /cohost / cara.app

Once I stopped wheezing, I went looking for what inspired this tweet. Apparently anyone consistently ripping into Biden and telling anyone why he's trash is "voter suppression". Liberals have all lost their goddamn minds.
