I can't seem to drum up support anymore for Spark Space, which supports displaced families with electricity & internet... As engineered hunger worsens, this is a way for families to work onlineβto EAT.
Chip in. Click "weekly" or "monthly" a coffee! chuffed.org/project/spar...
While autumn & winter are my favorite seasons, I admit I miss the sun being out later
Not because my nocturnal self needs it to function, but because I enjoy scenery outside my window, and it's like a sibling flipped the light off on their way out when I wasn't ready and now I can't see shit. Rude
Welp, once again it is #BandcampFriday where artists get to keep 100% of the proceeds from their sales!
Iβll be plugging other folksβ music today but Iβll start with βThe Fisher Kingβ. Released in January, itβs my electro-orchestral vision of hope.

It's always fun watching younger readers realize tropes get re-used across books and genres then get online to proclaim that authors need to stop using them because they're tired of books "copying each other"
I imagine they won't be too thrilled to learn we've been using "tropes" for millennia
Thank you Laken! Hope you're having a lovely week yourself ππ€
Evening coffee, hash browns, cozy faerie book, kitty cuddles, and not so cozy fae writing

I used Hungarian paprika! Smoky but more on the sweet side. There's also Spanish paprika, which I haven't tried cooking with yet
Many jokes shall be told at the d&d table π
So snug in their burrito blanket π₯Ή
The tentacles add to the, uh, theme ππ
And for the least sexy character I've ever created π€£ she's a 3ft goblin fairy who told a paladin guard she was hitting on that he was "so mysterious, so clanky"
Screenshot of a DnD Beyond spell list. The spells read: Hold Person, Hunger of Hadar, Suggestion, and Tongues
Could I have chosen different warlock spells, yes
But why rob myself π
No one stopped me from putting three different types of paprika in the breakfast rice, so it's actually your fault if it's too much π€¨

Maybe now that people are paying attention to Kansas, you'll stop telling trans people we're overreacting.
The federal government is now *requiring* trans inmates to undergo conversion "therapy," which the UN has recognized as a form of torture.
Colorado borders Kansas. Here is a Colorado non-profit that helps trans people relocate, Trans Continental Pipeline.
Please share.

Hair oil works really well for me, mine is dry and prone to frizzing at every little disturbance π there are also some good anti-frizz creams if oil is too heavy for your hair. I've had to experiment to find the right products/amount for mine's texture
Got my teefies cleaned today and now I need to bite more people's fingers off to restore the blood coating
Volunteers? Anyone?
"Delete this" is a universal artist reaction to our own creations, I see π€£

My editing notes to clients: *in-depth critique drawing from literary analysis, suggestions, industry standard corrections*
My editing notes to myself:
One weird perk of working from home is finding out that no traditional workplace schedule would've suited me because my clients get their edits during my 3am caffeine zoomies so I can nap throughout the day and hiss at the sun from behind the safety of my blackout curtains
For sure and that is sooo much harder to do, I don't envy that job π I feel like Miyazaki pulled that off with Howl's Moving Castle, I adore both and they seemed to be in conversation with each other rather than separate works
