Having photos of rebbeim in one's house is borderline idolatry. Admire tzaddikim all you like, but it's weird and approaching avodah zara to have big photos of them on the wall.

the thing about using Bce/Ce isn't that im pretending the calendar isn't based in Christianity, its that i dont want to literally participate in christianity every time i talk about the year. ill use the common calendar for the sake of convenience but im not saying ad because it isnt the year of my lord.

[daatyichudnik]

heard. counterpoint: letting it be "the common calendar" when it is in fact "the gregorian calendar" (which is a christian calendar but also not even the only one is) and just talking around that because it is convenient is giving them the win and then erasing the game. i use Anno Domini because i do want to ever let anyone forget that we're talking on a very specific Christian timeline. it's vital context for literally everything, just like acknowledging that we're on greenwich mean standardized clock time - it's not just "common standard time", it's not a "common calendar" fuck that. it's not the year of your lord, and it's not the year of mine, and i don't want that to be smoothed over, ever. you're not participating in christianity less by pretending you aren't

[fuzzytheduck]

I think what got lost here is that when I say I don't want to participate in christianity, I'm not talking about rejecting colonialism or christian hegemony, I'm talking about how its literally against my religion to refer to jesus as "the lord". now I may have other political or personal reasons to dislike the Gregorian calendar, but the main reason i dont say ad/bc is that.

I am also frustrated by christian hegemony and the assumption of christian systems as default, but I'm not smoothing anything over by using this slightly altered gregorian calendar, I'm just refusing to involve myself in idolatry.

i called it the common calendar cause it is the common calendar in the country i live in.

STAR TREK: VOYAGER // S6E12 Blink of an Eye If there's an intelligent species down there, we'll be able to track their development, not just for days or weeks, but for centuries.

Finally figuring out how to draw these two ~

Just some sketchbook scritching of The Trolly Operators (plus a shitty sketch of Si and Ry that I will not be showing the rest of). I love these two and you will be seeing more of them. This is a threat ~ 😉💖

[autism-on-titan]

Trolley operators need to get way less normal about each other ASAP I need them making out as they hold guns to each other's heads for a guilt-ridden double suicide

I made the Slay the Spire 2 yummy cookie relics! Or, at least, there was an attempt.

I am not actually very good at decorating!

The Ironclad

I've tried making my own royal icing before and just have never had great luck getting a consistency I like, so I figured for this I'd just get some store-bought icing. The yellow worked fine! The red...did not! It was the same brand and everything, but was super runny for some reason. My ironclad is melting 🫠

The Silent

I had the same problem with the black icing being very runny (spoilers: see The Regent), so I tried to use a toothpick to just sorta dab it on. Results are questionable.

The Regent

My husband said we should get stars for the sprinkles, which is very cute. We don't talk about the rest of what happened here.

The Necrobinder

Decorating is hard, guys.

The Defect

I feel this is the only one that turned out fairly accurate. Thank goodness for minimal icing!

Bonus

I had extra cookie dough so I made some orbs. The dark orb looked more purple in IRL, I swear.

Thank you for coming on this journey with me. If I ever get the idea to decorate a baked good again please remind me not to do that. At least they taste good.

if I saw a platter of these at a party I would be OVERJOYED

love that necrobinder lady. make the green and purple hp bars kiss.

Say, what caught your eye about The Defect anyhow? Would have thought you'd want someone a little more royal ig

It is kind and caring, powerful, intelligent, and endlessly interesting. It can banter, monologue, and listen. It is a powerful ally in combat. It adventures with me, enables my wisdom and curbs my follishness. And most of all, it is a good friend. I was lacking companionship for many years, and the Defect has filled that hole wonderfully, in a way no one else can.

I suppose you could say it is fate, as much as such a foolish concept can apply.
