This one straight-up gave me a nightmare after I first saw it.

Totally worth it.

I'm honestly glad I had to work through today's Cubs game.

With what I was seeing, there's no way I would have been coherent for so long, haha

GO #CUBS!

All of my prompts for ⚔️ #Swordtember2025!

4th year in a row doing these all! They're always a fun challenge, and even though I go the extra mile for designing characters, still can't wait for next year's #Swordtember!

Shoutout to @faithschaffer.bsky.social for making such a great art challenge!

Why do people always gotta be so goddamn disappointing??

Also the amount of people who genuinely believe in what RFK says is both staggering AND asinine.

Woe upon any who dare even consider engaging this unmatched and ruthless warrior in combat. For his name strikes fear and terror in the hearts of any seasoned fighter. None survive his fearsome onslaught of absolute power.

⚔️ #Swordtember Day 22: Swan

Despite being used for performances or ceremonial dances, this large blade is still very much as sharp and dangerous as any sword...Making it even more impressive for the ballet dancers who wield it, able to effortlessly swing, or avoid it.

⚔️ #Swordtember Day 21: Ring

Divine Seraphim. Faceless, emotionless, it delivers swift and holy justice to any to who dare seek harm upon it.

actions that will contribute more to pushing against bluesky's censorship than a blackout:

-submitting a feedback request
-@ing moderation about it
-commenting on mods posts about it
-making and sharing memes (ex: "i consent!" sticker)
-leaving an app store review
-just generally posting about it
