I Think We Need Media Especially Fantasy And Sci-fi That Deal With The Inconvenience Of Menstruation.

I think we need media especially fantasy and sci-fi that deal with the inconvenience of menstruation. It's such a common thing that is barely understood, by half of the population. Since media, art and literature shapes how we understand the world it could teach cis men how a period works, and that it's not utterly reprehensible. You've all heard that NASA story, that they sent like hundreds of tampons for a week trip.

- An elf panicking because they didn't pack enough pads/tampons for their quest through the woods.

- A casual trading of pads.

- Makeshift pads made in haste before the big boss battle.

- A character accidentally bleeding through their pants, and NOT being ridiculed.

- A character getting nauseous, or being too in pain to do what they usually could, maybe a cute pampering scene.

- magical pain relief

Periods are a little gross, just like other bodily excretions but they're nowhere near as bad as they're deemed. Stop stigmatizing them by showing them

Continuing The Arthur Lester Birthday Celebrations, I Made Him A Birthday Cake. It's Been Through Some

Continuing the Arthur Lester Birthday celebrations, I made him a birthday cake. It's been through some shit, but so has Arthur so I think it's symbolically appropriate.

Have a drawing I did of my John design, and a poem I wrote about John. Both following the fact John is very much wolf-coded. The poem's kinda old, but the art is very new

Have A Drawing I Did Of My John Design, And A Poem I Wrote About John. Both Following The Fact John Is

And now the poem

I have a wild animal behind my eyes

I have a wild animal in my hand

I have a wild animal growling in my ear

He is untrained, untamed

I am his leash

He pulls and pulls on me

He growls at every introduction

He has fought countless and won even more

He is vicious, and angry

But his tail wags

He whines

His barks aren't always a announcement of a fight

He nuzzles up close to me

He's experienced the love of a puppy

Naive, pure, uninhibited

He still growls and bites

But he softens them with licks

He has become a loyal guide dog

This wild animal is my purpose, and in turn I am his

My name is HAMDI AHMED, and I'm a disabled queer Latine. Tragically, my family's evacuation plans from Gaza were thwarted by the loss of my father, our breadwinner, during the genocide. Recently, my mother fell victim to an airstrike in Deir Al-Balah, leaving me without a home. With no income and relying on the kindness of friends, I urgently need to evacuate to Egypt for safety. Any donation, no matter how small, would make a world of difference. Thank you for your support.

I have very little money, but I will share this. I hope this gets to someone with enough money to help. I don't really know how to help. I hope you get to safety

EDIT: THIS IS A SCAMMER
