Ur honor, i love hobart brown !!!!!!!!!!!!
drew this last year then forgot about it<3
Tried to draw Hobie Brown cause I'm a big fan. I installed a new pack of brushes to play with to try to imitate some of the spiderverse style
If you are trans I need you to stay alive.
Stay alive for every other trans person fighting, stay alive for every trans person who is no longer here, and most importantly stay alive for yourself.
They donāt get to erase us! They donāt get to take away our rights, and treat us as less than human. Donāt let them erase us, and donāt let them make you a statistic. Donāt let them win.
Stay alive
If you wonāt do it for yourself, then do it for others. Do it out of spite.
Ima be honest, America lost our ability to protest.
Literally Nazis are fucking EVERYWHERE and everybody's rights are being smoothly stripped away. First it was trans rights, and then (just like we fucking told yall) they started going for gay people. They tried going for black people and women, but gays were there to back them up, so now they're taking us out. And yet, all anybody wants to do is spread "peace".
"Oh, I know, I'll email my local governor to complain about the newest legislation. He'll listen for sure." NEWSFLASH, picket signs don't hurt the government. Boycotts, maybe, but sitting on Twitter ain't doing shit.
Every day, I see dozens of people all "If they come for MY rights, I'm responding with force." And some fucking photo of them with guns or what have you. And then the fucking time comes to follow up on your word, and suddenly everybody's too afraid of punishment to do anything.
Do yall think Stonewall was a fucking PEACE MARCH? There's a reason we give out celebratory clay bricks every pride.
Literal SEGREGATION is back and all every "I'll fight for my rights" guy wants to do is tweet about it.
We need to start taking after France.

Please reblog and spread the word
to all of the scared kids on tumblr right now: you'll get through this. i promise. i woke up at 2 in the morning on election day 8 years ago and dreaded my future for the same reasons you're dreading yours now. its hard to imagine things turning around when this is potentially the first election you've ever known.
i wont lie. its not going to be easy. but please remember that you're not alone, and that things will get better. after the 2016 election, democrats were so upset that they took back part of congress in the 2018 election. they changed the game. we can do it again.
but in the meantime: you're loved. you're supported, even if it's just here on tumblr. keep living your life, and we'll keep the fight going for youāunless you feel enraged enough by this that you want to join in.
im trying very hard to process and im sick and scared and i dont have a lot of words left at my disposal, but listen. its not over. its not over. this is not the end. i need you to stay resilient. i need us to keep moving forward, even if we're crawling. we're going to keep fighting for change and there is no greater form of resistance than persisting in a world that might want us dead. you are so loved. this too shall pass, bloody but unbowed. i love you. i love you. allow yourself to grieve then grit your teeth and continue to be relentlessly, powerfully kind. i love you. i love you.
Hey so I usually avoid gatekeeping, but Iām so fucking sick of this shit.
Iāve seen āpunksā with back the blue patches, āgothsā for trump, ect ect. You are not a fucking punk if you support the police, or if you vote red, or if you bully gay/trans people
You canāt be punk and apathetic, just āoh Iām not voting they both suck š„ŗā you are a whiny ass liberal
You canāt be punk and drive a fucking Tesla, or buy mass quantities of SHEIN and Temu.
Youāre also not a punk if you shit talk and refuse to listen to the music, but thatās definitely less important than the political stuff
Some people are posers, and deserve to be told that
whenever i show people i know my diy projects i usually end up getting some form of "i wish i could do that.", and each time im confused because, you can.
i cut up old pairs of jeans for fabric, use wall paint samples, hand sew with a sewing kit i found in the house and have slowly curated into a big tub of random supplies, and i stop the fabric from fraying with a random match box. as for artistic stuff, you can easily make stencils from paper!!
trust me, if you've ever seen some really cool diy shit and wanna try it out, you 100% can! a lot of diy stuff can easily be sourced from around your house or from others around you with unwanted items.
im currently going around to friends of mine seeing if i can debone their jackets (steal the zippers) and then return said deboned jackets, if youre broke or just dont wanna spend $50 on a white t shirt with cursive on it then make that shit!! trust me you just gotta get creative with what you use. :)
iām sorry but like do yāall actually like hobie or do you like a character to project on and treat you like shit in your self insert fics ?
Side note: This post is not intended to start up the age discourse that surrounds Hobie. I am not going to get into it as this argument/debate comes up every so often and really doesnāt prove anything on either side you are on. Iām not dissuading anyone from absorbing any content of Hobie and saying itās problematic EXCEPT for the things Iām pointing out in this post. If you see Hobie as a minor, thatās fine. If you view him as an adult, thatās also fine. Until the directors come forward and confirm his canonical age I am not going to bring up the same facts that is brought up whenever his age comes to discussion. This is just me bringing up a reoccurring issue Iāve noticed that doesnāt get too addressed by the community (and when it does itās often pushed to the side)
The fetishization and inherently the oversexualization of Hobie Brown is not only problematic but also harmful. Black men being fetishized has been going on for decades since slavery times. Iām not going to go too deep into the history but if youāre interested this creator has a very good video discussing it.
With Hobie Brown being a darkskin black man that is part of the punk scene and comes off with a āroughā exterior youāre going to have people put stereotypes on him. Despite how heās portrayed in the movie Iāve seen people headcanon him as this cold person who wouldnāt care about his partnerās feelings or come off as a womanizer that sleeps with a lot of partners without a care in the world. He fucks rough and is aggressive while the reader is this innocent person pulled under his spell. Thatās where some of the problem delves with him being portrayed as this aggressive and sex deviant who doesnāt care about his partner(s) feelings. Itās a stereotype a lot of (mainly non black) people see black men as.
Despite the fact that Hobie in the movie shows to deeply care for his friends, even going as far as helping Miles who he didnāt even know up until now. Heās shown to be gentle when handling Mayday. Yet people still want to paint him as the polar opposite.
Take Miles G for instant. Iāve seen him get the same treatment with him being painted as a āgangsterā who is aggressive and your typical gang lord despite him only having five minute screen time. While yes from that little time he does seem to be the much colder version of Miles Morales painting him out to be a thug goes into that dangerous fantasy a lot of people see black men. People (again mainly non blacks) view black men as this dominant and powerful man who is always aggressive in and out the bedroom.
The same can be said for Miguel who even the screenwriters have written him as āanimalisticā and āferalā. Writing him off more as some beast than a human being.
Circulating back to Hobie thereās nothing wrong with finding him attractive the problem delves if youāre headcanoning him or viewing him as your stereotypical āhoodā boyfriend who is deprived of any other emotion except for anger, jealousy, or this sex god who will beat up people for even looking at his partner. When we make these harmful stereotypes about black characters it starts to trickle down to irl and how we view actual people.
And we end up seeing shit like this on the daily. I donāt even have to explain why this is problematic.
All in all Hobie Brown is much more than just a pretty face. Heās a young black man living in an oppressive fascist society that heās actively fighting against. He deserves to be treated more than just a sexy conveniently attractive guy but a much more complex character whoās backstory in atsv is still a mystery. If youāre just gonna sexualize him 24/7 and not see him anything outside of that youāre weird, and youāre even weirder if you headcanon with āheās ugly but he got that big dick š¤Ŗ.ā
Kristin's favorite little man.
Daily reminder that we do not actually live in a dystopian movie put the apocalypse down and back away slowly. You know when your cleaning a room and you pull everything out of it's draws to sort through it and you're like "what the fuck have I done I'm never going to be able to tidy all of this" I think that's the stage we're at in the world. Thanks to social media we've pulled out all the messed up shit from the cupboards of the world, it was always there but now we can see it and we're going to have to sort it all out we made this mess and we can fix it. Falling to the floor sobbing will not clean a crusty room. A group of people working systematically (preferably with music in the background) will.
