Proud mother

This species of dragon cannot breathe fire, but is able to set their scales ablaze. Normally this is quite a tough skill for babies to master, as it involves quite a bit of practice and concentration. But this little one was able to just figure it out one day, earning well deserved praise from mom

So I'm currently undertaking the task of FINALLY watching the MCU movies. (Yes yes. I know. Have I been living under a rock?) Just started with the first Iron Man film. Really great movie!

NO SPOILERS OR I WILL RAIN FIRE UPON THEE!!!!!

Good morning, Bluesky! I've decided to do my part in these uncertain times for queer folks and run public servers again. I posted about it last night, but I'm trying to build a community of support and help for young queer folks still figuring things out.

I actually always find this X-Files clip really inspiring that way, like yeah I do 100% believe Fox Mulder wants me to stay alive

2 stills from the X-Files side by side of Fox Mulder speaking to camera, caption reads: Hey, you got to stay alive if you want to stick it to the government. If you die, you let them off the hook.

Ok, bio updated!

As I told my Discord server, I've discovered EVEN more things about my gender.

Still Mama to Starlight, but I know now that I identify clearly as genderqueer. As I said, we are all customizable, in every detail, and yet we are inextricably who we are. Nothing can ever change that.

Good morning @everyone!

I meant to send this last night but after figuring out all of what I'm about to say, I was simply too drained. It may be a lot or a little. I'm not sure how detailed I want to get in this post, but here we go.

I've discovered an aspect of how I experience gender and wanted to share it with you. I've found that I am not uncomfortable with any pronouns being used for me (yes, even male ones). This led me to start thinking more about how exactly I experience gender. Put simply, and clarified by Radiance , we are all fully customizable, so to speak, and all the various gender related things that I experience can be independent of each other (expression, pronouns, parenting title, all of it).

All of this to say that, if I had to pick a label for myself, I would go with genderqueer. All pronouns are good for me, since how I experience my gender can't really be represented by one set of pronouns alone. If you pressed me for a true preference, they/them would be the one, but that's not an insanely strong preference either.

I feel much more comfortable not putting myself in a binary box. It's been more trouble internally than externally, strangely, and now I have the task of letting people know. I figured you kind folks and dear friends should be the first to know.

Shoutout to Radiance for helping me figure this out and put my thoughts in order! I love this dragon so much!

Have a great day, and feel free to direct any questions you want to me in #general if you wish,

- - - - Maelstrom

I’ve often said…if we’re talking high school group dynamics and the Hazbin cast are the theater kids…the Helluva cast are the punks who hang out under the bleachers breaking shit for funsies.

An info-graph regarding this post:

#Twitch #VSky #MeltTheICE #NoICE

An infograph meme quoting a moment from the movie "The Incredibles".

There is black text that reads:
Alright, listen closely. I'd like to help you with the ads, but I can't.
I'd like to tell you to click on the gear icon and select "Report Playback Issue". But I can't.
I also do not advise you to select anything related to how the advertisement is offensive or inappropriate; I wouldn't expect Twitch to do something about the ICE ads if they get flooded with enough reports.

Below, there are images that are as follows:
From left to right, top to bottom.
