Life isn't always what we expect it to be.
Hugs not Hate
I'm a GenX transgender Canadian and modern-day Bard: artisan, poet, geek and jack-of-all-trades. Started writing Sims4 Fan-Fictions that grew from there.
Passions: Sims4, writing, art, & LGBTQ+
Pinned
I'd like to hope I can pin this somehow.
I've been seeing an annoyingly common trend these days among younger artists. Don't DM people to ask for a commission. It's really bad form, not to mention impolite. If someone loves your artwork, they will ask you. Post on your profile, but don's spam.

Magic is drawn from the elemental manipulation of Mana. As conduits, Sorcerers draw power from within. Magic is powerful, but comes at a cost. Mages manipulate the environment through formula. While more versatile, it's not as powerful. Druids bend nature to their will, healers draw from themselves.
#Febchantment Day 3

What is the central concept of your magic system? E.g. Elemental magic? Music magic? Name-based magic? Something else? (Note: this isn't the "source" of magic - that's Day 8!)

If you already answered this previously, feel free to go into more detail!

Three rules in FBI firearm training:

1. Always point your weapon downrange
2. Do not point your weapon at anything you do not intend to shoot
3. Don’t put your finger on the trigger unless you intend to shoot

Guns are not for threatening compliance for unarmed people doing things you don’t like
happening this morning in Minneapolis -- ICE agents drawing guns on observers. I reiterate again that it is only a matter of time before DHS kills more innocent people in Minnesota. Congress needs to shut this shit down right now.

This man is 90 and still acts like he's considering running for government again.

I love him so much.
CHRÉTIEN: At this moment, our friend from the south has created a mood that a Canadian have never been so proud to be Canadian ... The desire to have a referendum is very low in Quebec. I don't know what the hell is going on in Alberta.

HARPER: I didn't sign the petition.

Choose a book written by or about someone of a different race than you. Try challenging yourself to pick a book that is both by AND about people of a different race, or a book that features a very diverse cast!

I’ve had many people ask the last couple days if I sell my art, and where. I do sell it, I’ve been a professional artist for the last 5+ years. I sell on Etsy, and on my own Website.

The woodpecker I posted on Friday isn’t for sale as it’s for an exhibition, but there will be prints available :)
