A digital map in black and white with grey seas. There’s on big island and a lot of little ones with a continent marked out on the right side. There are some places marked out across the landmasses: Sanctuary, Penny’s Cove, Coisume, the Empire, Old Ryme’s Port, The Tross, Mage’s Enclave. The whole thing is marked over with a big “the Nearways seas”

A piece of digital art set in a wooden building with golden light drenching everything! Two figures take center stage! They’re drinking from wooden mugs and have curious and intense looks on their faces. A brunette white lady is examining the hand of a tanned white man with blondish hair in a white shirt.

One of the simplest radically rebellious things you can do — you, right now! — is wear a mask in public. Show people you think they’re worth protecting. Show people you’re willing to resist the social pressure to pretend things are normal. It’s good hygiene and good practice for other resisting.

Calling all loverboys and lovergirls and loverthems!!! Come with me aboard the Wretched Lady!! (Not literally… unless?)

Will my roguish pirate captain and the governess he definitely shouldn’t fall for get an HEA? Yes! Will they have to sweat for it a little? YES!

A digital drawing of a couple kissing in the middle of a drearily lit room. He’s on his knees and has tanned skin and light brown hair, his shirt is a little open. She’s on a lounge of some sort in a pink and white dress with her feet tucked under. She’s paler white with dark brown hair and pulling him closer.

I am in some of my worst health I've been in years and I haven't been creative AT ALL. Compared to when I was less sick and mentally stable and producing some of my best art some months ago. I hate this trope a lot and find it really really damaging

Van Gogh's extreme depression and beautiful works of art are an outlier, he's amazing because he did all of that DESPITE his brain chemistry making his life hell, not BECAUSE of it

The tortured/starving artist trope is both wrong & damaging because it makes it sound that suffering is good actually

I've updated this campaign, but here's the tl;dr: everything is frozen, insurance companies are not my friends, and new meds are spendy.

Also, my cat is cute.

What Donna didn't say is that because of our lost employment/insurance situation, not only can I no longer try to help her but she's been trying to help us.

Having your insurance tied to employment remains a scam.
