Tomorrow, the 4th & final part to my high fantasy short story “Like Them” posts! The story follows a young apprentice Warden (think Ranger-Monk vibes) named Rüni (they/them) on their first field mission, with both their mentor & best friend. Check out Part I here: www.patreon.com/TheAilingWit...

Fun Lore Fact™️ about my setting: A nation that is blatantly an homage to Arthurian mythology has a canonically trans masc knight who becomes the land’s beloved and idealized founder, King Lysander I. Also, dude had ADHD like whoa. (I should finish his short story…)

Prepared some poems to submit somewhere, but haven’t sent them in yet. Worked one 1 short story, and made some essay notes. No audiobook or knitting progress, but I had to cook myself dinner and that WIPED me out. So it’s cartoons and candy time to relax, because I’m a damn adult.

Old post but there's a question about dosages. Depending on your rx your dosage to interfere with may also be small. Are you willing to risk your medication being messed with? Birth control? ADHD meds? Antiseizure meds? Heart meds? Better safe than sorry etc.

Researchers find that one-time trainings about consent can actually increase perpetration. In my interviews with young men, they told me that they knew no one believed what they were saying because it hadn’t come up before—and no one actually held men accountable anyway.

Yes, I work at a food bank in interior Alaska and we are at capacity. We are having to turn new people away, and only do “emergency one-time boxes.” Most of who we serve are elderly, disabled, and low-income families. I’ve volunteered there for 5 years and we’ve never had so many people in need.

Things are already dire for so many, & will only get worse… Heading into a dismal winter & holiday season for so many. Donating anything you can directly via Mutual Aid can save a life. Donate to your local food banks if you can, if nothing else. We need to help each other— we need community.

LRP that thread from Anna got me thinking about this character and piece again. She's right, you can't DIY a sensitivity read. I had 3 done for the story that deals with this character and I still think there were things I could've done better. But there are still things I'm proud of.

Dramatic Entrance
A beautiful plus sized Black woman descends stairs in a regal outfit, one hand on her hip, a cane at her side for balance and a massive grin on her face as she looks directly down at the viewer. Her dress is done up in reds, oranges and yellows and her hair is slightly curled trailing asymmetrically down the left side of her cheek. The emotion is that all eyes are on her and that’s how she likes it.

Nobody owes you a vote. It is your job as a politician, to EARN that vote. Demeaning and denigrating vulnerable minorities isn't going to EARN my vote. And demanding, like someone holding hostages, that ppl vote for you, is only earning you my eternal scorn and condemnation.
