It’s @peculiarityshop.bsky.social mystery box time again! I love all of it, but I’m especially obsessed with the dragon in the book considering you know, author working in publishing.
A collection of jewelry from the Dragon’s Den mystery box, including necklace of a blue dragon framed by a book, a tiny skull pendant, a white dragon pendant, a scale ring, and a pendant with multiple creepy baby heads (affectionate) on a leather cord. In the top right corner, the Dragon’s Den logo is visible

Hey, Bluesky, got something of an odd request. Does anyone have info/research papers/etc. regarding analgesic resistance/ineffectiveness in those with collagen disorders? My specific situation is Stickler Syndrome type 2 but I’ll take broader literature; I know it’s been observed in EDS. (1/x)

Had a shiny delivery today courtesy of @peculiarityshop.bsky.social and the kindness of @trickycrayon.com! Pretty sure I have found my default index ring. “One of a kind Parisian spoon” is certainly a conversation starter
A black-grey ring on the index finger on a young white man’s hand. The runt is flat and vaguely square-adjacent, with intricate designs and cutouts. His hand is in a fist to show off the ring.

Absolutely thrilled with this beautiful piece from @caztastrophe.bsky.social of @peculiarityshop.bsky.social! I’ve never commissioned jewelry before and it came out absolutely perfect, including fit which NEVER happens. I CANNOT overstate how much I love this. BEST graduation present to myself.
A red and black paracord bracelet on the small wrist of a white person. Silver wings decorate the front of the bracelet; a reference to my chosen middle name, Wren.A photo of the same bracelet laying flat, taken by the creator. There are small accents of silver paracord woven into the red and black, and silver bars at the edges of the bracelet.

One of my #ofmdcraftfair winnings arrived safely, courtesy of @poisinpen.bsky.social! I didn’t realize it was a mirror, but that feels even more apropos. I need these words now more than ever. I feel like other people might too.
A trapezoid mirror sits on green and blue carpet. On the left top corner is a stained glass flower in the color of the transgender flag. Written on the mirror is a protection sigil and the words “I will thrive in spite of this.” The words and sigil are more legible than they appear in the photo’s lighting

Local space obsessed trans guy got NEW TREASURES from the @peculiarityshop.bsky.social mystery box, including BADASS SCI-FI ARMOR NECKLACE. Words cannot express how much I love all of it. Especially being low vision, all of it is so tactile as well as beautiful…it’s PERFECT.
My entire mystery box laid out on the space themed tissue paper. Above a pendant, a choker, and a not-quite-choker is a sticker of the It’s Cosmic artworkA 3/4ths closeup shot of a (faux?) leather cord bracelet with several orbs that give Big Uranus Energy. It has a magnetic clasp that could most likely survive the heat death of the universe without coming apart.A closeup shot of the pendant, which reminds me of a quarter inlaid with a dark blue stone, pictures of a star and a moon, and bunch of little dots I interpret as stars. As a blind person, words cannot express how fun this one is to feel.A picture of me, a young white man with brown hair and heterochromatic eyes, wearing a silver scale mail necklace that is slightly lower on my neck than a choker. In the center of the necklace, slightly below the hollow of my throat, is a silver ring. It looks and feels like badass sci-fi armor for the main hero in a novel. The straps and some of my star-patterned chest binder can be seen, as well as tiny black studs in my one visible ear. My head is slightly twisted to accommodate the photo, it lays perfectly from straight on

As a trans man with the world being what it is right now, plus my plan for after college experiencing some very scary turbulence as it changes course, this is what I needed to see. They said he couldn’t go to Nome. *He fucking went to Nome anyway.* I’m sobbing.

PSA FOR NC TRANS FOLKS! A 🧵 You don’t need proof of gender reassignment surgery to update your birth certificate! I know, I thought you did too! But I found other options buried in the application to modify a birth certificate itself, on the vital records website. You can do the following.

This is most likely disinformation or that particular agent being a transphobic bastard. State docs, including licenses and birth certificates, are not beholden to federal regulations. Gender markers have nothing to do with adoption. There are no reports of people being detained. Do not panic.

My grandmother sprung a family photo on me the day after my arthritis meds (when I am very sick) and timed it so that I wasn’t able to wash my binder last night. She did not realize I own two now. I am wearing the most fuck you outfit possible in this stupid fucking photo.

New friend from @leighharlen.bsky.social! He is delightfully soft and squishy, and looks like he has never once had a thought in his entire life. 15/10. Name TBD, I am open to suggestions.

I have bought two necklaces, an ear cuff, and now a bracelet from @peculiarityshop.bsky.social in the span of two weeks. I’m not sure if my mother (to which the packages are going) or whoever on that team is shipping the orders will be more alarmed. Half are presents, but still.

There’s a key distinction between saying “things are really horrible and bleak BUT we can work together to survive this” and “everything is totally fucked forever and we should give up now and wait for death.”

It’s also galling that I am probably the most vulnerable member of my extended friend group and the only one who was at all calm until VERY recently. One saw me on the 7th and immediately started sobbing about how I was going to murdered. Another demanded I withdraw my grad app to UT Austin.

i am once again reiterating that being transphobic towards someone who is a transphobe is still transphobia. also, under no scenario is being a woman, trans, and/or queer an insult. Elon had a trans daughter who disowned him because of how horrible he was to her. do better. self crit.

Tag yourself with the job you’d actually have in the Star Wars universe given your occupation. Studying writing at a smaller branch school of the Alderaan University system. Working on a novel about a group of blind Force sensitives trying to survive the Sith Triumvirate.

I feel like the next two months of legal transition Stuff are going to be a lot of relatives’ wake up call to the reality that if I’m anyone, I am my father’s son. Which is going to be stressful, in a “I am 21 and I am changing my fucking name” standoff way. But also holy shit I can’t wait.

The very fact that I’m a writer has gotten me called an elite by some people. Arts = elites. That’s it. That’s all it is. The same people also think I was just born with magic talent rather than “a fuckload of practice got me here”, to the point of fights if I say otherwise. That feels related.

This just in: novelist thinks 750 words for an entire story should be illegal. In other news, water is wet. (Professor is doing this because so many of us said we had trouble with short things. I understand how that is good. I appreciate her. I still fucking hate this)

That moment when the thing you’re writing for a class assignment starts waving a little too close at Rapture vibes because that’s the universe you’ve been writing for since. You know. I’ll keep it out of fanfic territory, but if anybody in class has played Bioshock they are going to notice I think

I’m going to keep writing my book. I’m going to write it even harder now. The world that’s coming needs Whippoorwills. Maybe that’s ego talking. Or just desperation. I’m not saying a story about blind kids vs. the apocalypse will fix anything. It won’t. But maybe it can give some hope.
