I’ll always put women first, and I’m not even sorry for that.
I think people seem to kinda forget that there is still no equality between women and men, but somehow we already moved to another subject.
Women are still getting harassed. Women are still being taken and forced into sex trafficking. Women are still being raped and murdered. Women are still being abused (emotionally and physically). Women are still making less money than men. Girls are still expected to behave. Girls are still less likely to be encouraged to do STEM- oriented studies. Girls are still enduring Female Genital Mutilation. Girls and women are still forced to spend their period in isolation. Most Women still don’t have access to (affordable) birth control and abortion. Pads, Tampons and other Female Hygiene products are still a problem for homeless women, women in prison, poor women, women in 3rd world countries…
That isn’t even all of it.
So yes, I’ll continue to put women first until I can’t name a single thing anymore. My priorities won’t change until then.
Basically what I’m saying is “thing that moves like a distorted gif, but in meatspace” works much better than “thing with tons of tentacles” as a visual representation of cosmic horror, IMHO.
Nowadays, sure, but human depictions of cosmic ineffability are always informed by time and place. In the early days of deep-sea exploration, “thing with tons of tentacles” was the very pinnacle of “holy shit what is that”; it’s just that the symbol has aged in a way that the substance has not.

what a lot of people on this site do not understand about redkatherinee is that she’s still a kid. it hit me only when i started following her twitter. she’s crazy talented, hard-working, brave and tough as fuck –
but only when you realize that she is a very young girl, you start to respect her on a completely different level. she could’ve been so fucking popular by now but she chose to speak up and to stand her ground. she’s dealing with hateful dumb fucks on a daily basis and i (an adult) can not even begin to understand how
exhausting it must be.
she deserves a fucking break.
She is so brave and resilient. I really admire her.
she drew trans people being boiled alive and baked into food like i hope she got the hell off the internet and into a more stable mindset are you kidding me. i hope she logged off and went to go lay in some grass and figured out that trans people online sending threats because someone drew them being boiled alive isn’t actual violence.
i’d like to see proof that she was underage, if that’s even true, but being young doesn’t excuse you from the consequences of your actions. i literally just…. hope she grows the fuck up and becomes a better person and never puts filth like that into the world ever again
no matter how young you are, if you draw trans people being murdered in violent fashion while screaming TERF politics, you’re fucking scum and the opposite of “clueless” – a hateful, nasty piece of shit and dont deserve shit before you straighten yourself out and stop being a piece of shit.
she is literally a 19 years old adult woman, not a child. what the actual fuck
WHY in the fresh hell are people sympathising with the woman who drew her oc boiling trans people alive and then tried to claim it was lesbophobia and misogyny, like damn get well soon if you think she’s even remotely redeemable
So the rebuttal pictures of people cutting out her ovaries and stuffing them in her mouth, or threatening to rape her to death…
Not misogyny?
Threatening to report her to her homophobic country’s gay-bashing police system:
Not violent?
But god forbid she draw some art that makes you feel mad. That’s her literally assaulting you.
You lot are hateful, and in a few years you’ll grow out of this. I hope that when that day comes, you never forget the fact that when push came to shove, you are the people who exposed minorities to violence.
This is Char Vortryss aka Char the Butcher. A trans activist famous for his “Die Cis Scum” tattoo while while wielding a baseball bat. He also happens to be a neo-nazi. Does this image look fucking familiar to you? Yeah, that’s because this is the image that redkatherinee based her pie-holding witch off of. Because it’s fucking satire.
As for her “boiling trans people alive”, YOU idiots are the ones claiming we “literally murder x number of trans people” just from acknowledging human biology. So she illustrated your ridiculous fantasy. Because it’s fucking satire.
How did you fuckers respond? Explicit gorey illustrations targeting her directly, violent rape and death threats, and even a threat to report her to her homophobic government. You lot are more violent and dangerous then you could ever imagine us to be. Name a single instance where one of us has done to one of yours what your people did to redkatherinee.
Cathy Brennan? Doxxed a trans teen? Nope, turned out that little fucker was sending threats to rape her and her children, and she noted that he was using the school computer, so she did what any responsible adult would and notified the school of his behaviour. We’ve outed pedophiles and other rapists in your community because y’all won’t hold them accountable.
YOU fucking attack a young satire artist after deliberately pretending you don’t know what satire is. If you were really that fucking stupid, you’d never be able to pass an English course (or its equivalent in other languages). And while I’m sure that’s true of some of you, it’s not true of all of you. You know what satire is, and you know that’s what redkatherinee’s illustrations were. You just wanted to put an intelligent and clever young woman in her place.
You want to know why so many of your allies are leaving? This shit is why. Because not only do members of your community act this way, but when they’re called out on it? You pretend it didn’t happen. When presented with proof you ignore it. When you can’t ignore it you minimize it. When it can’t be minimized you justify it. You’re collectively a living Narcissist’s Prayer.
