"In a historic “first-of-its-kind” agreement the government of British Colombia has acknowledged the aboriginal ownership of 200 islands off the west coast of Canada.
The owners are the Haida nation, and rather than the Canadian government giving something to a First Nation, the agreement admits that the “Xhaaidlagha Gwaayaai” or the “islands at the end of world,” always belonged to them, a subtle yet powerful difference in the wording of First Nations negotiating.
BC Premier David Eby called the treaty “long overdue” and once signed, will clear the way for half a million hectares (1.3 million acres) of land to be managed by the Haida.
Postal service, shipping lanes, school and community services, private property rights, and local government jurisdiction, will all be unaffected by the agreement, which will essentially outline that the Haida decide what to do with the 200 or so islands and islets.
“We could be facing each other in a courtroom, we could have been fighting each other for years and years, but we chose a different path,” said Minister of Indigenous Relations of BC, Murray Rankin at the signing ceremony, who added that it took creativity and courage to “create a better world for our children.”
Indeed, making the agreement outside the courts of the formal treaty process reflects a vastly different way of negotiating than has been the norm for Canada.
“This agreement won’t only raise all boats here on Haida Gwaii – increase opportunity and prosperity for the Haida people and for the whole community and for the whole province – but it will also be an example and another way for nations – not just in British Columbia, but right across Canada – to have their title recognized,” said Eby.
In other words, by deciding this outside court, Eby and the province of BC hope to set a new standard for how such land title agreements are struck."

[Video Description: A simple, black and white animation of Ahab genderbent as a woman. She is a chubby and buff older Persian woman with long hair in a low bun, and scars over her face, including a lightning scar over the left side of her face, a scar over her lip, and a forked scar over her nose. She wears a simple, collared shirt and holds onto a rope, as if climbing the rigging of a ship. She sings out for a whale, her voice commanding and gruff at the end. After the note ends, she grins widely. End ID.]
in honor of the 'Kill The Whale' album that anon sent me on my main blog and also lesbian visibility week, please have a very quick animation that is much less intended to be a good animation and much more intended to be me being category 10 homosexual about this woman.
i have a looooot of thoughts about how Ahab is portrayed in that adaptation (genuinely fascinating. much to say) but the most important thought is that her voice actor is incredible. Ms. Ahab.......... 😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳uhm. yeah. im gay thanks everyone for coming

hey fellow artists I know that we all want to create huge beautiful peices with dynamic poses all the time but sometimes you just gotta draw a guy just kinda standing there. For your mental health I guess.

nsfw (sex toy) complaining under the cut
every single fucking time i enter a website and search by size on some of their sex toys i re-enter a state of rage because with all due respect to people's preferences and bodies. what are you fucking TALKING ABOUT. "super duper tiny smallest length we can possibly size is 4.5 insertable". REAL LIFE AVERAGE DICK SIZE IS 5 FUCKING INCHES. 4.5 IS BARELY SMALLER THAN THAT. WHY HAVE WE APPLIED SIMULACRA THEORY TO DICKS

These are the actual colours I painted with, but I played around a bit with gradient maps to get a few variations... I like them all, and cannot really decide which I prefer. Ref is from this.
