Conservatives and right-wingers have only themselves to blame. They're completely intolerable, obnoxious, unbearable, and unreasonable. But most of all, harmful with their inanity.
Eww Those legs.... ๐ซ๐คฎ
And in Jungian/Freudian psychological terms, the Fairy Queen & Prince are both Bethany's shadow self and negative animus.
Bethany has embraced her bisexuality and found her love interests (a man and woman). But the Fairy Monarchs try to lure her to them, tempting her through her Oedipal/Electra complexes and the allure but sinister form of adulthood that Beth both fears and secretly desires.
#QueerPrompts 2 Bethany embraces her bisexuality, but is conflicted when the Fairy Queen & Prince offer her a chance to return to Otherworld as much as she wants (on condition she'd be their "shared companion") or become just another lost girl (like Dorothy, Alice, and Wendy).
This conflicts and breaks Bethany, but she refuses to be the Fairy Monarchs' companion.
Her antagonists (a Fairy Queen and Prince) make her an offer: either Bethany never returns to Otherworld (and be another Lost Girl, like Dorothy/Alice/Wendy), or she could return as much as she wants. On condition, though, that she'd be the antagonists' "shared companion"
Fitting. Trash in the trash.
It's very nice. I just recently had my haircut. A buzz cut like yours ๐
YAY!!! Another bisexual male celebrity coming out
And in the country of Palamede, they have the Lakme Spring Festival, which celebrates light over darkness. Itโs celebrated with many lights, home cleansing, fireworks, gift exchanges, sweets, and fairs.
Now that is intriguing
A traditional Passtide feast consists of mouflon lamb, boiled eggs, chocolates, sausages, fish, pastries, fruit, greens, meat pies, peanut butter oatmeal cookies, and macaroons.
#SeptemberWorldbuilders 2 In Nequinum, the main spring equinox festival is Passtide, celebrating the passage from winter to spring; with events consisting of fruit & flower gatherings, spring cleaning, a week of fasting, egg cracking, candle lighting, and feasting.
Nikabrik joining the dark side again ๐๐
RIP Graham Greene. Every time he popped up on screen when I was a kid, my mom would excitedly point him out for being an actual Native on the screen. Able to be deadly serious and infinitely hilarious (even in smaller roles like Last of Us), he ate up the screen. Nสkiโwah brother.

Hope he knows how to swim If not, its no big loss ๐คฃ
I didn't live through it but I heard from my elders how Mediterraneans (Greeks and Italians) weren't considered classical, or "proper" whites, up until the 1970s. Even though we've been "accepted", I'm not trusting anything these racist white bastards say. Nor will I ever pity them.

They look sexy together. They must have a strong, affectionate, happily-ever-after bond between them.
White Privilege is you being more given the benefit of the doubt than other people whose skin color differs from yours.
๐คฃ The black mold made her even more aggressive.
The MC's bullying was based on my own school experience. The teacher was a cruel cow who enabled the bullying, even in class, did nothing to correct the kids' behavior, and was fired for it.
That part is simple. The bullying was exposed and the bullies faced consequences--which they hated and blamed the MC for "ruining" their lives. Their teacher was also held accountable as she enabled their cruelty. then on Halloween years later, they chased her into the woods to get their revenge
The WIP story owes part of its existence to the song "Wicked Girls Saving Ourselves" Written by @seananmcguire.bsky.social My Heroine, Bethany, refuses to be another Lost Girl, preferring to be like Persephone; coming and going between worlds, echoing the changing seasons.
Examples of the Punishments: The greedy glutton eats fairy fruit that wastes him away. The spoiled brat puts on red shoes that forces her to dance to death. The obnoxious conspiracy theorist, in his chicken costume, gets swallowed by a giant fox. The idiotic bigot gets turned into a donkey.
#WritingCommunity #Booksky #Writesky I have in my head a book idea; a Halloween version of Willy Wonka. Where the MC and her grammar school bullies (still horrible people) visit a haunted house that entraps them till sunrise and punishes the bullies in unique ways. Would that sound okay at best?
Get well soon
#SeptemberWorldbuilders 1 The Wild Family takes place in spring, on Easter Sunday at the beginning. The Paramyths of Nequinum Book 1 is set in autumn on the equinox.... in the year 2001, when the world was in chaos and some escapism was needed for a trio of foster kids and their adult chaperones.
#FantasyIndiesSeptember 1 Hi, I'm Nectar Vam. I'm an AuADHD writer currently working on The Wild Family, a portal fantasy adventure coming-of-age quest story. The Heroine follows in the footsteps of her literary ancestors (Dorothy, Alice, Wendy, Susan, Lucy) but refuses to stay home like they did.
Then my first guess was right. Thank you kindly.
No more old men in DC
And if that's not you, Abigail, I can still see the similarities.
You look lovely in that long wig

Resist everything Trumpian....even Trump himself.
Let's still have hope that Azrael (the angel of death) is just waiting for the right moment. Perhaps it will happen while he's on the toilet-- traditionally a humiliating way to go in legends and lore.
#MythAugust 30 The role is similar to the religio-mythology of Narnia: Its Abrahamic Theology combined with Pagan Mythology, but minus the evangelizing and proselytizing (I don't any of that shit). Nequinum is a new world where religio-mythological archetypes are retold/renewed/reborn/recycled.
#WritingLifeMonthly 30 Diana Gabaldon. Her sex scenes are unusual to me: they don't feel like two bodies grinding together. They feel like two souls intertwining, becoming one cosmic, bright flame. Its both earthy and spiritual. The sex, though dirty, feels pure. Divine. I sound silly, don't I?
The Magalotian Social & Belief system demands child/animal sacrifice, flagellation, sales of indulgence, corporal punishment, slavery, a class/caste hierarchy, witch/book burnings, child/animal labor, anti-intellectualism, plantations, prison labor, nationalism, xenophobia, etc.
The evil empire of Magalote in my worldbuilding is half Christofascist Theocracy and half Roman/Babylon/Philistine society. With a cruel, twisted pantheon of a Satanic/Antichrist figure and his 13 demigod servants (an inversion of Jesus and the Apostles, or the 12 Olympians).
#AugustWorldbuilders 30 American Evangelical Protestant Fundamentalism. On all their reactionary ideas, concepts, theocratic visions, fascist aspirations, culture policing (such as condemning fantasy and fairy tales), and all of it is scary AF. They truly want a Republic of Gilead.
Its just farcically sad and pathetic of Racists desperately looking for heroes.
Perhaps Azrael (the Angel of Death) heard our prayers?
And Three Ladies make a coven ๐๐ I just love a trio of mystical wise women, of every myth and lore.
I will be praying to the Angel of Death for his term to be shorter
Thought so. I may be a Christian, but I'm willing and open to criticize the men running the church, and the hypocrisy and sanctimony they stink of.
Is this suppose to be critical of the church? Cause I kind of see it that way.
Looks cool.
Bowie as the Goblin King in Labyrinth
Reminds me of the Heartless from Kingdom Hearts
Love their "it's your fault our leader made mistakes" mentality. It's both sad and farcical.
How I love your crossover reviews. And your characters clashing. Nervous but smart-ass English and fierce, dominant Irish.

Musk would be right at home in Stepford, with his very own Stepford Wife.
Musk would be happy living in Stepford, with his own Stepford Wife.
So Musk is a Technophile? No surprise there.
#FantasyIndiesAugust Favorite characters I love them all, but right now I have a soft spot for Heron. She's fiercely protective of those she loves. Stands right up to bigotry and hate. Looking forward to an important scene with her. @chesneyinfalt.bsky.social @lvrussell.bsky.social
#WritingLifeMonthly 29 Since the story takes place in Somerset, the setting is a beautiful greenery located in the Cheddar Woods. Raphe and Alicia enjoy their time alone here. Sadly, greenery gets destroyed after a century or two.
#AugustWorldbuilders 29 Nothing too fancy. Google Docs/Drive. With my phone that I use to take down notes or ideas.
I was at first scared to criticize Zionism, so instead I criticized Christian Zionism. Now I criticize and oppose both. And its all because I heard of Holocaust survivors openly condemning Israel's actions.
#MythAugust 29 Definitely, it's a Multicultural inspiration (from Greco-Roman, to Middle-eastern, to Polynesian). Liberally mixed with Joseph Campbell, Jung, Freud, and other analytical writers on myths and archetypes.
Oh, so she's shameless. Typical right-wing bigotry, always shameless.
Did she confess willingly? I'm skeptical of her growing a conscience out of nowhere.
I see you got visual rizz
Why Jessica's working at Fox News is beyond me.
Or is that the reverse?
Art imitating Life
Sorry to interrupt, just want to say that I like your name. It reminds me of the parody name for James Bond in a comedy sketch on The Carol Burnett show. Tim Conway played "james blond", and Carol played Bond girl "Passion Plenty"
What a total alpha snowflake You reap what you sow, Sean Inanity
And may his ratings continue to sink even lower..... Down to the ninth circle of Hell.
All I can say is may Trump continue to wither and rot both inside and out.
#FantasyIndiesAugust 28 #WritingCommunity My current WIP is both a Fantasy and period piece. A portal fantasy set in the 1920s to 1930s. I can stick to one genre but I would like to write multi-genres, especially within a frame.
Honestly, those shades look disturbingly creepy
That sounds interesting. Personally, I like to be a multi-genre writer, even within a frame. For example, my WIP is a Fantasy period piece.
Good! May it sink even lower....all the way down to the ninth circle of Hell.
I never trust anything what Right-wing news media says. Their bias is all over it.
They saw each other as friends first... Though Alicia did rescued Rafe from drowning first (he can't swim).
Their emotional connection blossomed into something more. And it wasn't intentional on either one's part.
The time traveling Alicia makes the first move on highwayman Rafe. At first they were playacting, then it turned quiet as their eyes locked. As they're both Demisexual virgins, it was a first time for both of them. Rafe was first confused, then curious, then.... well
#WritingLifeMonthly 28 Alicia is one to make first move on Rafe: as they both ride away with half the gold, they playact the foolishness of the folk they robbed. Then, the playacting turned into a playful roughhousing, and later into a first emotional attraction. They're both demisexual btw.
#AugustWorldbuilders 28 Ruled by Deities and Celestial/Cosmic Law. But in the case of Fae Magicians, their magic is ruled by supernatural nature.
Yeah, HP is a strong pass for me. If was looking to read feminist lit, that's the wrong kind. HP is pure white feminist junk imo
And I say this as a left-wing, open-minded Christian Henotheist.
I hate those edgelord internet atheists Just as much as I hate atheophobia and raving Fundies.
You reap what you sow Sean Inanity
Love him even more
Did you also got blocked by a Molly Lyons? She called me a misogynist/rape apologist and threatened to report me by posting my comments on her page.
This is freaking adorable I love it
Both Blue Maga lady and Molly Lyons blocked me With the later threatening to report me.
Did I do something wrong? I got involved in a comment war between a friend and a Blue Maga. I accused her of being a Pick me girl and said "Trump and Andrew Tate wouldn't pick you" and compared her to Pearly Things. Then, a Molly Lyons called me a misogynist and posted my comments on her page.
It's also scary that the right, and even Blue Maga, is co-opting feminism, like with Nancy Mace using feminist rhetoric to weaponize against her opponents, namely progressives and leftists.
I just got blocked by her And a Molly Lyons accused me of misogyny, simply because of comment saying Alt Kelly is a pick me girl and that she'll never be picked either by Trump or Andrew Tate, and I compared her to Pearly Things.
