a bouquet for butch lesbians:  💐 and a big old fuck you to those who equate them with men

Hi, it’s mod w, I’m up really late again and I want to share some insomnia thoughts. 💫

For all lesbians anywhere,

You don’t need a girlfriend, partner or wife.

Girlfriends, partners and wives are (or should be) wonderful to have around but you are so far from needing one. So far.

Be an independent woman. Find the next step forward with your life and make it. Clap yourself. Take care of yourself, make friends, don’t starve yourself for love.

Do not for one second attach your worth to a woman that’s not there. Burn from your own need of you. Flare up under the magnificence of yourself in this terrifying and gorgeous world. Find your worth in your own work and beauty and strengths. Make them your own. Put all the pain and fear and sweat into this realisation.

Become a knight under your own banner. Not hers.

You do not need a girlfriend, partner or wife. Want is different from need. If you think you need a girlfriend, then you need yourself.

50 Weeks of Art Improvement Challenge

This challenge is made with an emphasis on human anatomy in mind because this is something I really want to improve on. Each week, I will make a post with references I find for the theme to help get everyone started. :D

Here, you can find all the reference lists I’ve made.

Your job, if you wish to join me, is to practice drawing the topic for that week. It can be doodles, sketches, an art piece that focuses on the theme, or whatever else you can think of. 

Please join me in figuring out how to art, and tag your work each week under “50 weeks of arting” so we can find each other’s art and keep each other motivated yaaay :D
