I still can't believe Trump means fart and Musk means smell, it's like world war three is written by Roald Dahl.

This is my favorite picture of Stonewall.
They knew they were getting arrested just for being LGBTQ+.
Yet... they're still here, standing outside of the boarded up Stonewall Inn, smiling as the world was at a fever pitch of hatred against them.
I think about it a lot in moments like this.

Absolutely hate “we went too far” revisionist history. “We all believed women and it went too far.” No we did not all believe women. I was there

7 January 1792: #OTD Mary Wollstonecraft's Vindication of the Rights of Women was published.
This text was hugely influential and is regarded as one of the earliest works of feminist philosophy.

if you can't handle me at my Ten of Swords then you don't deserve me at my The Sun
I just had the horrible realisation that if I had to pick up a Tarot card to best sum up my energy, I'd have to pick the 2 of Pentacles.

Inspired by the always lovely @predap.bsky.social, I'm doing a 2024 review thread!
I've learned a lot this year, both about myself and others. Despite everything, or I suppose because of everything, I've come out the other side more resilient and more wise.

A goal of mine for 2025 is to spend less time around men who clearly don't care for women.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but you don't need to justify your reading preferences and choices to anyone. Audiobooks count as reading. Also, you don't have to finish books you don't enjoy. Don't read to impress, read for yourself. Life's too short, love yourself, ok?

When men rage, they blow and shoot things up and start wars.
When women rage, we create.
We knit, do embroidery and cross stitch. We create new things ... while we figure out how to fix the broken things.

how quick men are to forget the sexist actions of another man, but oh how the actions of a woman who refuses to be pushed around sticks around in their minds

So I'm still seeing things in the periphery about misogyny in fantasy and one thing I can definitively say is that if you make a list of authors who are not doing misogyny in fantasy and everybody on your list is a man, I definitely discard everything you just said.

Finished up another old sketch I had from a few years back; it's been kind of fun going through some of my older WIPs and freshening them up. :)
