#originalart
a digital illustration of two gauntlets/hands, a dark one with golden details and white/lighter one, both inspired by renaissance 15th/16th century armor. their fingers are slightly reaching out for each other. both hands are wrapped in a red ribbon that says 'No Love, however brief, is wasted.' In between there are white periwinkles as a symbol for fond memories

@tenofsword.bsky.social: Who here hasn't unhinged their jaw to a distressing degree?
Me: Who here hasn't gotten themselves fatally impaled but been totally fine after?
@andysomniac.bsky.social: Who here hasn't been left for dead on the bottom of a lake?

Going after asexuals isn't the point where JK has Now Gone Too Far And Needs To Be Spoken About.

That happened already. And if you're one of the well meaning allies going "I didn't want to speak up before, but...." you maybe want to think about that some more.

Fellow Asexuals, don't forget you're rolling stealth with disadvantage all day today. Save the shenanigans (like kicking J K Rowling into the sun) for tomorrow 😉 💜🤍🖤

Behold my gorgeous new Hadestown ink courtesy of Sami Graystone at Physical Graffiti (Cardiff, UK)!

( @tenofsword.bsky.social got the exact same thing, just with my handwriting instead of theirs)
A forearm tattoo with a chrysanthemum in delicate red ink lineart, circled by a banner on which 'to love is to look back' has been written in cursive black handwriting.

The tattoo appears slightly wrinkled, as it is under Second Skin for protection while it heals.

Oh WFRP2e, my beloved, you know I can't stay away from you for long.

Started running a new campaign for Broken Wheel off-weeks last night, and I can't wait to see what my human seer (@andysomniac.bsky.social), halfling fieldwarden, and future ice witch (@tenofsword.bsky.social) get up to.

Bubo, my precious perfect son who can do no wrong, it is *March*

(Gamifying self-care works wonders for me, it turns out)
A screenshot from the Finch app, showing a blue and pink cartoon bird in an orange racoon-face sweater, comfy red pyjama pants, orange sneakers, and a purple aviator's hat with goggles. He is holding a pink plushie bird, and a reindeer stands next to him infront of a Christmas tree. Text at the top of the screen reads "Bubo is eager to join in the Christmas spirit" and a speech bubble below reads "I'm feeling festive already! Fa la la la la cheep--"

We're going way down
POV: sat in the passenger's seat driving down a sunny UK motorway, one (bare, tattooed) arm resting against the window. Around the wrist are several bracelets similar to those frequently swapped at concerts, with red, black and white beads. They read (top to bottom) "Muse", "Orpheus", "Sing it again", "Wait for me" and "Hadestown"

Tonight's dinner: experimental curry based on a recipe I once used for mopane worm stew. This time it's chicken, thickened with tomatoes and peanut butter, with added spinach and mushrooms
A metal bowl with handles sits on a white tray emblazoned with "keep calm and serve". In the bowl, white rice is visible beneath an orange curry with chicken, onion, tomato, spinach and mushrooms in. A naan bread sits behind the bowl

Diwrnod Crempog Hapus! | Happy #PancakeDay!
Page 1 of the Hellboy short comic "Pancakes". In 1947, a young Hellboy is called in for breakfast. He wants hot noodles, but is told by General Norton Ricker he can only have pancakes. Hellboy does not want to eat "pam-cakes" because they're "yucky", but tries one bite. Page 2 of the Hellboy short story "Pancakes". Hellboy loves Pancakes. In Pandemonium, capital of Hell, the Demons wail. Three demon lords, Astaroth, Mammon and Haborym, comment that now that Hellboy has eaten pancakes, he will never come back to hell.

[Broken Wheel - D&D 5e]
We're back on our irregularly scheduled feywild bullshit; place your bets as to who will survive our latest ill-considered venture:

- Heafoc, hexadin, Gawain-from-Temu
- Aster, cleric/druid, Disney Princess
- Ikko, wizard, small dragon
- Jambon, roguelock, literal cat

Pedro Pascal responding to transphobia on social media: “I can’t think of anything more vile and small and pathetic than terrorizing the smallest, most vulnerable community of people who want nothing from you, except the right to exist.” (via @charliejane.bsky.social) [capitalfm.com]

Pedro Pascal, whose sister Lux is a trans woman, is a prominent trans ally and he has no time for transphobia.

Happy FFXIVersary to me

🐉 Apparently it's exactly 4 years since a big blue space candy first instructed Tsetseg to Hear, Feel, Think.

Happy birthday, best lizard, and sorry for the horrors the MSQ has put you through since then. Hopefully this year you get to relax on the exciting beach holiday Yoshi-P promised you 😉
A screenshot from very early in the FFXIV MSQ; Tsetseg (a dark-skinned xaela WoL with red hair and a bright red streak over her eyes) stands in a dark room, looking up, her face lit by an off-camera light source above her.

This is everything to me. Desperate to know who wrote the codex because it made me sob when I read it in game.

Lazy Sunday
A laptop showing a character from FFXIV (a grey skinned female au ra with black scales, red hair and a red stripe across her eyes) eating chocolate in a forest sits on a cream duvet. In front of it, a mug from The Last Resort filled with iced coffee.

On the days I am about to give up, this Gwendolyn Brooks poem gives me an anchor.
TO THE YOUNG WHO WANT TO DIE Sit down. Inhale. Exhale. The gun will wait. The lake will wait. The tall gall in the small seductive vial will wait will wait: will wait a week: will wait through April. You do not have to die this certain day. Death will abide, will pamper your postponement. I assure you death will wait. Death has a lot of time. Death can attend to you tomorrow. Or next week. Death is just down the street; is most obliging neighbor; can meet you any moment. You need not die today. Stay here - through pout or pain or peskyness. Stay here. See what the news is going to be tomorrow. Graves grow no green that you can use. Remember, green's your color. You are Spring.
