some french speakers are also using "begins with a vowel" as one of many gender-neutral strategies, since the vowel obviates many of the usual gender markers on the articles eg. "adelphe" ("sibling") is l'adelphe, mon adelphe regardless of whether it's treated as f or m

I've been poking at this sewing project on and off forever, but I fimally finished it! a water bottle holder I can hang from my belt, so that when I'm out birding I can have easy access to my water without having to take off my backpack #SophCrafts

photo of a scrappy pieced-together cylindrical bag made in shades of blue, green, cream, and brown. It has a loop at the top edge to go around a belt.

photo showing that the bottom of the bag is made of two crossed strips of fabric, leaving four holes so that small debris that falls into the bag won't collect inside.

i'm enjoying book three :) #svsss #shenqingqiu #mern.draws

A drawing of Shen Qingqiu, wearing robes based off of the English translation covers. He holds a fan with his right hand which is obscuring the bottom half of his face, only his eye and part of his nose are visible. With his left hand he holds a leaf. His hair cascades down to the middle of the frame. His robes flow down and out, filling the bottom corners of the frame. The background is a square behind him, inside decorated with slightly transparent bamboo. Nothing is shaded.

Hua Cheng and Xie Lian exploring ghost city stalls, the POV being from above. They are holding hands and eating tanghulu. Ghost citizens clamor around them. Lanterns are strung above the stalls. Xie Lian is smiling with his eyes closed, while Hua Cheng is looking at him fondly. In the background at the top is the sky, with some clouds and the moon visible. There are two fireworks in the distance.

alright here it is: rec page templates! - default templates made for media or fic recs - uses javascript but if you use the default categories (medium, tropes etc) you won't need to touch it - any/all filter select options for UX - comes with css that you can customize link: fan.kingdra.net/recs

some mxtx designs prompted by my sister :) #mdzs #svsss #tgcf

A mdzs design, with a guqin and dizi overlapping, a flower in the left corner, a leaf in the right and middle left, and two clouds at the bottom and middle of the guqin. There are various sparkles around the piece

A svsss inspired design with a sword (that hopefully can be recognized as xin mo) and a fan with a tassle overlapping. One either side are two pieces of bamboo, a jade pendant at the end of the sword, and two mist like shapes. There are three leaves scattered and various sparkles

A tgcf inspired design with emimg, ruoye, and a cherry blossom branch overlapping. There is a butterfly on the left, and a lantern on the right. Two leaves are scattered and various sparkles are present. There are two mist like shapes, one on the bottom of eming and one on the top of ruoye
