When Koume and Kotake trick Link into pulling the Master Sword free of the Temple of Time, ten years after he placed it there to return himself to his own past, the world shatters around them and many of the Heroes across time are dragged together to stabilize a broken world.
How will they restore each other to their homes and families? Can they even get along long enough to find a solution without dying to one world or another or, worse, killing each other?

as much as i get the sentiment behind "make more bad art" there's gotta be a better way of communicating "you don't have to be technically proficient or hold yourself to a specific standard of practice" that doesn't sound as backhanded lol
Etsy is requiring all sellers to verify our identity, so at the end of May, I won't be able to sell on Etsy anymore.
To be clear, I have no problem verifying my identity. I already did. Etsy already has a copy of my government ID and my tax ID. The problem is that now they want me to give my ID to them again, and they're using Persona for the process.
Persona was in the news recently because it's the company Discord was going to use, until all the pushback. The pushback came because Persona a) left their collected data in a publicly-viewable database and b) turned out to be collecting wayyyy more data than they said they were and passing it onto the US government (source).
Discord since went back on that. Etsy is pushing forward. I asked them, and no, there is no way to verify myself and keep selling on there without giving my data to Persona. Unlike Discord users, most sellers don't seem to care, or just accept it as "the cost of doing business". I don't. I can't believe how easily people are giving up their privacy and, yes, their personal freedoms. "They can have my data, I have nothing to hide" - the point is that nobody is entitled to your data. They are taking your data, and selling it, and getting rich off it, and you don't see a cent of that money. Why? What gives them the right? How are you okay with someone simply taking your stuff and selling it? It's yours.
(Also, you have nothing to hide until someone decides that you are hiding something because they don't like the look of you or because you said something they didn't like. Going by history, that's how that tends to work.)
Anyway, my Etsy shop will likely be closed at the end of May. If you want anything from there, now's the time. I'll still have my website and I might just add prints to my Ko-Fi or something too if that's possible, but the Etsy chapter is closing, unfortunately.
I think Warriors is handsome but pretty. But I think First is Handsome and Brooding, which enhances the handsome. there's a big difference. Does that make sense ?
*takes the hand of a period drama writer gently* A queen consort is not a queen regnant. A dowager queen is not a queen regnant either.
There is very little intrinsic institutional power in queenship. The power a consort, dowager, or queen mother has depends mostly on how much the reigning sovereign (usually a man) is willing to grant her. Needing a queen to serve as regent is exceptionally rare, and the regent is more often a male relative.
Queen regnant: woman who rules in her own right, not on behalf of someone else.
Regent: Someone who temporarily assumes the powers of the monarch on account of the monarch being too young or too incapacitated to govern.
Queen consort: Woman who is married to the monarch.
Dowager queen: Woman who was married to the monarch. The monarch is dead, and she is owed support as his widow.
Queen mother: Woman who is the mother of the monarch. Usually the dowager queen, though there are exceptions if there isn't a straight line of succession.
....ok ngl it was literally only today, reading this post, when I thought I saw a funny typo in the term "queen regent" but then saw it used again right next to the word "regent" with a different definition, that I looked it up and realized "regnant" is a word at all.
I am 40 years old.
I like to think I've got a pretty broad vocabulary, and I was a history major in uni. I am also 100% certain if I've ever run into this term I either assumed it was a typo, or I didn't even register consciously that it wasn't the word "regent" as my brain made an assumption and moved on.
I know this isn't so much about the word as it is "queens didn't generally have much power bc most of them were not queen regnants" but I just gotta say I always thought the term was "queen regent" and honestly I think I thought the term in that context meant something different than a normal regent (maybe a queen permitted to rule when generally queens weren't put in that position? idk I didn't think about it over-much).
You learn something new every day if you let yourself. Holy cow. Regnant.
Well, well, well... look what I found.
