Damn it, I'm crying from a freaking Netflix movie, which has happened VERY FEW times. Like. Jeez. The end of Nimona has me full on sobbing I can't even. That was such an insane experience, and my tired brain shall forever cherish it. 10/10, would recommend watching it.

@queer_and_weird yep! And it was made by the same guy who made the She-Ra reboot! The comic plot is different and a lot more sad than the movie though, fair warning

TW: I go on a ramble about transphobia 
          
          
          
          Another note about the allegory in Nimona. It's truly heartbreaking. It hits so very close to home. I've grown very comfortable with my trans identity, and in extension my identity outside of the gender binary. But it seems the more comfortable I get with myself, the more I get scared about all of the hate around trans people. The more I recognize myself as trans, the more I feel my rights are being taken away. The more I recognize myself as non-binary, the more I realize that people think that my identity doesn't exist. Sometimes it feels like everything is out to get me. Like everyone is after me and my community. And it's heartbreaking. And it shouldn't be a feeling that should exist. And I'm so very glad that this feeling was shown in Nimona so well. 
          
          I'm really enjoying this movie. I could write a whole essay on this movie and still have things to talk about. It might be nearly 10pm in my timezone but gosh dang it, I am finishing the second half of this movie.

Nimona is actually such a good trans allegory. I was not expecting such a good allegory, but the whole explanation just feels. Like I understand it perfectly. How Nimona explains the feeling of being wrong, of feeling free after shape shifting, it all fits so well.

Just met Nimona. Nimona is the definition of an enby that is a chaotic gremlin. Like an enby that would name themselves Anarchy. And I do not say that as a bad thing. Also I thought for a second Ballister was calling his boyfriend punchable, which was hilarious to me. He wasn't, he was calling the bully punchable, but still.

OK SO 
          I'm never on here, I'm mainly just on Tumblr, Reddit, or Discord. But I still want to talk about Nimona which I have been MISSING OUT ON! 
          
          The two guys are openly gay which I was NOT expecting, I just went "they seem a bit gay" and then it was outright SAID they were gay, like WOW! 
          
          Yeah I'm only 4 minutes in. Already going insane and I love the animation style so much.

I finally had motivation and time to draw more than a sketch, so welcome in my new art book! It's not very organized right now, I'm planning to go back and make an actual cover sometime this week/weekend, but it's there! And I posted some art in it! So yay! 
          
          I am genuinely glad that I got that up, I haven't had motivation because of classes so it's good to be able to share art again :))
