With Easter fast approaching with its spiked rabbit sales and subsequent spiked rabbit abandonment rates, I thought I’d use my powers for good by spreading some information I think everyone should know before they get their first bunny. I usually don’t want people reposting my art, but feel free to spread this one around! Reblogs are very, very appreciated. If you want more information about pet rabbits, you can for example check out rabbit.org. And remember: Adopt, don’t shop!
it’s okay to fail. it’s okay to not succeed on your first try. it’s okay to not be able to live up to society’s unrealistic expectations of you. it’s okay to have emotions. it’s okay to be human.
BUT
it’s NOT okay to make people feel bad about failing. it’s NOT okay to set unrealistic expectations on people and get angry at them when they fail to meet these expectations. it’s NOT okay to make people feel bad about emotions.
Friendly reminder, especially for this time of year:
Don’t forget to protect yourself during your spirit workings, but also don’t let the fear of messing up stop you from getting your hands dirty.

Indefinitely unrelated news: on a recent trip I was doing some spirit work without all my usual set up and protection since I wasn’t at home. Some unexpected visitors slipped through and messed with the reading but it was nothing serious and a thorough cleaning staightened things out. In the end: no harm no foul. And maybe next time I’ll remember that I have to take more time with set up when doing necromancy so far away from home…
NATIVE AMERICAN, FIRST NATIONS, AND ABORIGINAL ARE NOT ETHNICITIES.
INDIGENOUS PEOPLE SHOULD NOT HAVE TO SIMPLIFY OUR IDENTITIES FOR YOU.
i feel like i need to make a post like this at least once a year but with the rise in native fcs being included on these alternate fcs posts let me repeat (again):
NATIVE AMERICAN, FIRST NATIONS, AND ABORIGINAL ARE NOT ETHNICITIES.
STOP writing “native american”, “first nations”, or “aboriginal” in the ethnicity section of a post when you aren’t doing that for any other race.
NATIVE AMERICAN, FIRST NATIONS, AND ABORIGINAL ARE NOT ETHNICITIES.
INDIGENOUS PEOPLE SHOULD NOT HAVE TO SIMPLIFY OUR IDENTITIES FOR YOU.
STOP writing “tribe native american”, “tribe (native american)”, “native american (tribe)”. google fucking exists, if someone has never heard what someone being of penobscot, lakota, mohawk, ojibwe, etc. ethnicity means, they can google it. indigenous people are the only ones who have the rpc simplify our identities on posts like these and it’s fucking ridiculous for 2020.
INDIGENOUS PEOPLE SHOULD NOT HAVE TO SIMPLIFY OUR IDENTITIES FOR YOU.
(please know that this isn’t directed to anyone in particular, i have seen at least 5 different posts by at least 5 different people in the past couple days, and i’m sure i’m forgetting some too)
NATIVE AMERICAN, FIRST NATIONS, AND ABORIGINAL ARE NOT ETHNICITIES.

Don’t force yourself to feel positive all the time. It’s okay to feel negative emotions sometimes but after experiencing and expressing those emotions, you have to let go.
transmascs butch women transfemmes queer people attracted to men
being unfairly diagnosed with bad vibes by the rest of the community for the crime of association with masculinity (especially if we find *joy* in masculinity or masculine presentation)
Op I’m reblogging this with your tags because I think they help illustrate your point better and I don’t want people to misunderstand you
[image description: the tags screenshotted read ‘by which I mean transfemmes are hated for their agab, and even moreso if they aren’t fem enough/like being masc, transmascs are ‘gender traitors’, butch women are told they SOMEHOW copy the male gaze, anyone attracted to men is somehow passing on man germs which. listen to urself, it’s uuuuuh the r@df/em talking points :///, (can u tell this was hard to phrase lol, cldnt say association w ‘men’ bc trans guys Are men, wanted to make sure that last bit was in parentheses, bc transfemmes are seen as masc even if they Are super feminine, but yh my point is u don’t get more queer points for being closer to (heavily cisnormative) femininity), also queer masculinity is good and beautiful!!, some ppl are queer in masculine ways!!!, anyway, mine, misc’ end description]
I recently befriended a girl who is bi, and she has literally apologized for liking men in a zoom room where about half the people do like men. And I kinda wanted to yell at her for apologizing. Like, what’s wrong with liking guys? Gay guys do. Straight women do. So why can’t bi people?
There’s a huge difference between masculinity and toxic masculinity and men. Like, each of them are independent from one another and treating them all as bad is not cool.
Anyway yeah, masculinity should never be a bad thing, of course neither should femininity but I’m advocating for masculinity right now.
