If you didn't know, I started a public discord server!

It's meant as a resource for younger LGBTQ individuals, but it's really for anyone trying to figure themselves out.

That is by far the best wordless "head empty" I've ever seen!

So... Uh...

Are we all just supposed to pretend this new Sora AI isn't going to precede (and likely cause) the end of truth?

Like, that shit is terrifying

It's not medicine everyone can (or should) employ. With great power comes great responsibility, after all. But I also have the confidence in myself to know I will only ever use my witchy workings for benefit, not the detriment of others.

I'll take questions if you've got any. Be Well, and Long Life

Maelstrom @maelstromwrites.bsky.social · 3d

How I achieved this may baffle folks, or put them off outright, but I'm not afraid to speak the truth.

The answer (for me) was in magic, witchcraft, the unseen art, however you want to call it. I have found this the best way to remain free in a world that demands your liberty.

Hi Bluesky, how've you been?

Me? I've been on a spiritual journey of personal growth involving confidence, liberty, and a little bit of magic.

I feel empowered, like I've woken up from being half asleep for years. It's such a great feeling.

I know who I am now. My path is clearer than ever.

Watch as Republicans embarrassingly realize their anti-pronoun policy is a confusing waste of time

The GOP wanted to stop State Department workers from using pronouns in professional settings, but they didn't think it completely through.

I always love seeing the early stages of paintings and the raw pencils/drawings of pieces. There is something so personal about how each person lays down those early marks.

Birthday is coming up, so I will quickly enter that category! (Yay?)

Not much figured out, but I've made tons of friends in the fandom, so there's that.

I want to say "it's time to stick together and proudly reject ridiculous bigotry."

But it's been that time since I was in middle school. Not enough people listened.

So rather, it is time to make your positions clear. Red lines and all. It doesn't matter when. We can't let this slide anymore.

P.S.

Vowels are pure throughout Draconic

A makes ah as in FATHER
E makes e as in GAME
I makes ee as in TREAT
O makes o as in HOPE
U makes oo as in FOOD

(Homework)
A good way to learn the sounds and how words are written are through short words, like pronouns! See if you can sound these out!

Maelstrom Teaches Draconic: Day 1
(Yazuzu Mersheg Emegir: Yud Dish)

The Alphabet! - (Va Alepbet!)

Here's a picture of the Draconic alphabet. Keen observers will mark the similarities between the names of these letters and an existing language!

Vowels are written below consonants and sound after

There's a lot to explain here in alt text, but I will say simply that the bracketed text is the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) equivalent of each letter's sound. What each is called is in parentheses, and gives a hint as to what sound it makes.

I think a big issue in this world is people don't "reach" each other

it's easier to pretend to be nice n okay and grow a fear, jealousy or resentment for someone/ something than it is to actually talk to them about it and feel a little bad then and there

I try to always air out how I feel bc of it
