#scar positivity

[guiltyidealist]

It's actually really cute that the skin reflects what it's been through. Holy shit you smiled so much that your skin adjusted to always show how it moves when you smile now. Holy shit you got torn open and your body healed over it Extra Special to make sure it Never happens again. Holy shit you accumulated some weight and your body fashioned some little lightning bolts to accommodate the new size. Can I kis all of this /p

self harm scars DO sometimes need trigger warnings

not about sm. sorry about this. its just scary to see people argue against use of tw so much

(sarcasm) am so so sorry that my safety is inconvenient for people. am sorry that putting a trigger warning on things is annoying for you, because you talk about it often.

yes, scarred bodies are part of the human condition, but so are triggers. and you can't ever say x does not need a tw, because different things trigger different people.

it's fucking dangerous and unsafe when you start these arguments against putting trigger warnings on things. tw is (supposed to be) a label, not an insult.

trigger warnings exist to protect people.

my scarred body is something i wear out. it is freedom, but that comes with responsibility. i know it can be triggering and i carry that. there's no way i can avoid triggering others sometimes.

but there's no way you can say "oh you're triggered by the human condition? too bad" because triggers are real, even when they're silly, even when they are annoying to tag, even when they are common, even when they are of other people. human beings can be triggering.

trigger warnings are not censorship. they are labels we need, because we need to know what content we are seeing before we see it. i'm fine with my body living behind a trigger warning, because that is how i keep other people safe. trigger warnings are not inimical to freedom, unless you're a neoliberal. and other people who've struggled with self harm might think differently.

but i want people who don't have sh scars to stop acting like all scars are the same. they are not. i don't ever want anyone to struggle like i did. that level of pain is not 'the human condition'. it is horror. it is horrific. my relationship with my scars is not easy.

mislabelling disabled bodies as 'body horror' is wrong. but it is not the same as correctly labelling scars that are clearly sh scars. and yeah, you can't always tell, which is fine. but some scars (like mine) clearly are. and this is hard to explain to people who've never been triggered by sh images. so yeah, sometimes you do need a tw.

trigger warnings are not about catering to sensibilities of people who don't want to see real pain. i don't give a fuck about how unsightly and horrific my scars look.

trigger warnings are about protecting people who need them. please stop arguing against their use.

drew this cause earlier i looked up at the sky and it was so gray.

last week the air reeked of smoke, and i learned that hawaii was on fire.

the temperature is in the hundreds here. which is not normal in my town.

there are no bugs. usually around this time of year there are swarms everywhere here.

my area is safe. in no way is this as bad as other areas.

remember when texas was frozen?

how hawaii is on fire and people are dying?

it's not just about animals anymore. and while i love animals, i'd imagine people would care more about the fact that humans are dying.

i'm so tired of watching my planet fall apart. i remember when i was a little kid the sky was vibrant and the bugs were everywhere.

i'm still a kid. and this is what i'm witnessing of my planet.

when i was a little kid, about 6-8 i had a plush polar bear that i brought with me everywhere. his name was Poly. polar bears are dying.

only about 26,000 left.

and nobody in charge cares.

Every Body

your disabled, fat, deformed, intersex, trans, scarred body is worthy. claim it.

your stare attracting, "ugly," "grotesque," "freakish" body has beauty. love it.

your weak, exhausted, painful, uncooperative body is deserving of care. be gentle with it.

the body that doesn't look like you is a vessel for you to experience joy. respect it.

no body needs censorship. every body is equal.

(sequel to another comic of mine, the calamity.)

all my other comics

store

#cw: eye scarring #cw: christianity #as a theme. and not a particularly positive depiction either. #the calamity has anger issues but is earnestly trying her best #the survivor is patient #and also not scared of her at all #the calamity is talking about the story of samson and delilah in pg 2 btw #i tend to only make oneshot short story these days but im fond of this pair #had the urge to draw something a little mundane with these two and the slowest slow burn of a relationship you could ever imagine #also usually a broken mirror would equal 7 years of bad luck but the calamity so outclasses it as far as bad omens go #im pretty sure the effects are just cancelled out #anyway #next comic will be a different story entirely i promise #thank you for your patience #and as always #thank you for reading #comic art #sapphic art #stillindigo art #hearteaters #stillindigo comics

i think one of the funniest takeaways from mumbo's episode is that mumbo did not think scar would immediately agree to blow up his base. because, somehow, scar STILL has half the world convinced he's just a silly goofy guy who is sweet and wholesome and can't possibly have a single malicious bone in his body and certainly can't be causing problems intentionally, it's all because he's a little bit silly! he's harmless! and like. i don't know how scar still has people convinced of this. i have no idea. this man has been entirely built out of Problems On Purpose since at LEAST season five and probably season four i just don't know enough about that one. at every opportunity he WILL take the chaotic option. and yet. half the world seems convinced that Scar Is Entirely Harmless Always. it's SO funny how has he fooled these people this bad. it's SO funny.

I'm coming to love my graft.

It looks freaky. That's okay, I'm a freak.

It looks scary. That's okay, I'm scary (so I’m told).

It looks like it hurt. It did, and it was great.

It represents a long hard road out of hell. It's a sign of my dedication to authenticity. I'm proud of it.

Transphobes do their best to scare trans men away from life-saving medical care like phalloplasty with gruesome photos of fresh surgical sites. They want you to believe that it'll always look like that. But your flesh will heal, and so will your soul.

Here's the truth about transphobes: if gender affirmation surgeries were pristine, blood-free, scar-free, magical transformations, they would STILL try to scare you out of getting them.

Getting pins in a broken leg is gruesome, too. But isn't it worth it once the leg heals?

I love my scars. They're stories told in skin. Here's where I broke up a dog fight. This one's from a gun. Here's one from an Offspring concert. Here are the ones I got in exchange for a life without dysphoria. My scars celebrate my life and remind me of lessons I've learned.

So, too, with my graft. Every day I can look at it and remember that I made it. That I am made whole. That I am free.

I don't hide it when I go out in public. I am not ashamed. Let everyone who sees me know that I am a self-made man.
