My high fantasy vampire novel is still available, in ebook, print, and even audiobook through Apple Books! This is the book where a friend of mine specifically wanted me to write him in and kill him, so...why not check it out?

No no, Streetwise was always that sickly tan colour. I had him back in the day, and I distinctly remember that colour on him.

Why yes, I DO need to rewatch Dungeons and Dragons: Honor Among Thieves, what an excellent suggestion!

She's not always a great gift-giver, unless she knows a person very well. Her family, her honour guard, her officers...those she can buy for. anyone else, she guesses.

Finally watching some of Transformers: Earthspark on my own time, and I really love this version of Megatron and his interactions with Dorothy. And his alt mode rocks.

There are gift occasions! Birthdays are a thing, as are new year festivals. In fact Lahmea's birthday occurs early in THE SANGUINE DUSK. She gets the latest book in a novel series she reads from the matriarch of the Shivnka clan, and favours books and blades. She's...hit and miss at giving.

Huge respect to you Seán. The stigma around mental health will only disappear if we talk about it frankly and openly, just as you have. I hope things pan out for you.

Chiitan has a dream.
I hope that one day the term LGBT will become a thing of the past.
I will continue to spread my message until we live in a world where everyone can love freely and is free from persecution and discrimination.
Until then, let's all support each other🤍

Can you put into words what that purpose is? You and the frog have really become icons of this protest.

There’s been a nice overall whimsy that has shown up. The frog is amazing. We had a bunch of other inflatable people here last night, too. I saw people playing Twister the other day.

What they rely on is fear. So by coming out in an absurdist manner, it speaks to them, to some extent, that we’re actually not that afraid.

It also dismantles their narrative a little bit. When they try to describe this situation as “war-torn,” it becomes much harder to take them seriously when they have to post a video saying [U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security] Kristi Noem is up on the balcony staring over the Antifa Army and it’s, like, eight journalists and five protesters and one of them is in a chicken suit.

And another thing related to my last post?

Yall mfs were way too willing to just roll over and move past BlueSky and the censorship issue.

The moderators are still acting like children.

They're still planning on pushing guidelines that will censor artwork.

They're still not defending trans folk.

See you've done it again. There isn't even an upper body but we KNOW it's there, because if the way you've drawn the hair spilling around her shoulders. It's...really kind of magical. And the skill on show is, as always, incredible. Beautiful piece.
