Whoops! I fell into a rabbit hole of stupid internet discourse where people are tearing each other apart over pixels while losing my faith in humanity instead of going to bed again!!

HELP A DISABLED TRANS WOMAN ESCAPE FLORIDA

BEFORE IT GETS ANY WORSE

Florida recently passed horrific anti trans laws including felony charges for using the "incorrect" bathroom, and getting your gender marker changed counts as "identity fraud". Also, HRT meds are no longer eligible for refills. With trump AND desantis in Florida, and this being an election year, it's looking like the political environment is about to become even more hostile. Like most trans people are feeling now, it seems like the closest is the safest place to be.

In order to relocate to a new home in a different state (one that welcomes trans people), I'm accepting donations starting now to raise funds for moving. Estimated $2000 cost to move essential, irreplaceable items, and also includes flight ticket fees and miscellaneous other things.

I'm setting the deadline at Sept 1st, before the election starts becoming a thing, and also before the weather turns too cold for heavy lifting during unpacking.

Any amount is hugely appreciated. Reblogging for visibility would also be a huge help. I'll queue this post to reblog itself regularly, and provide updates with reblogs in my pinned post. Thank you so very much. Never forget the love and strength that each of us are capable of. We belong in this world.

Another thing is that when this aggression started, we were so worried about winter and how displaced people in tents will survive it. Earlier this week the temperature in Gaza hit 38 degrees (100 Fahrenheit) and we are now wondering how will displaced people survive the heat in those tents.

it is so incredibly sad to constantly see kids on instagram and tiktok who are younger than my brother have to literally beg for shelter, food, water, medicine, and their right to exist as human beings

i mean, this young girl is only ten years old, yet she is essentially responsible for convincing random people scrolling through instagram that her and her family’s life are worth fighting for

on top of that, their gofundme is not even 10% funded and time is running out, please if you can’t donate, just share

please don’t let this little girl die begging

I think being a shapeshifter would fix me

Gaza's municipality is trying to raise money to fix and restore Gaza's water system. Please support them by boosting and/or donating

So you might be saying: Lion why a guide on drawing black people? Well young blood it’s because a lot of people cant…seem…to draw…black people..Amazing I know. 

Racist (caricatures) portrayals of black people have been around forever, and to this day people can’t seem to draw black people like they are human. If your artwork resembles any of the above even remotely your artwork is racist and offensive. If you try to excuse that as a stylistic choice you’re not only a terrible artist, but racist too!!! Congrats.

Whitewashing is also a problem. A lot of people refuse to draw black features on canonly black characters. While this example isn’t colored, lightening the skin-tone of a character is also considered whitewashing. So lets start with features!

Now all black people have different noses thats a no-brainer, but black noses tend to have flatter bridges, and wider nostrils. Please stay from triangular anime noses and small button noses. Your drawings should not depict black people with abnormally large noses. (Especially if you do not draw other characters this way)

If you feel like the way you draw lips on black characters is offensive or resembles a caricature,it probably does and you should change it. ABSOLUTELY AVOID PLACING LIPS AT THE BOTTOM OF THE FACE. 

Hair is so diverse! Please get used to drawing braids, locs,kinks and coils! If you can learn to draw ringlets and long waves you can learn how to draw black hairstyles.

Add clips! Learn how to draw baby-hairs and never be afraid to add color Pinterest and Google are free my dudes! Also try using square brushes for blocking in coils.

OK THAT’S ALL YOU GUYS
