Finally got the Alanna the Lioness tattoo I always wanted, inspired by my childhood copy of Lioness Rampant. I spent a long time looking for artists whose style I liked and who might enjoy designing it, and settled on @midknight.ink over on instragram! She did such an amazing job. I know Alanna's magic is violet, but the pinkish fire matched the overall tattoo design more.

THAT'S ALLOWED?

Writing is for communication. Sir Terry knew very well that anything's allowed if it helps you communicate something effectively.

#how do they handle this in audiobooks?#obvi the last one should be beeps and the wording in the joke should be slightly changed #hmmm #audiobooks as works of translation #audiobooks should be works of translation #but they are often not #and that does make the big difference for me liking or disliking an audiobook

im curious about a specific generational divide

regardless of you being queer or not, did your parents ever gave you the "if you turn out to be gay it would be fine" talk, before you ever had the chance to say anything on your own about that?

gen z, yes

gen z, no

millenial, yes

millenial, no

gen x, yes

gen X, no

baby boomer, yes

baby boomer, no

Remaining time: 5 days 17 hours

because it happened to me and im wondering if this was a product of the ongoing cultural change around gay issues. before i ever had the chance to say to my parents "i am this" my mom was already sitting me aside to tell me "if there is anything you want to tell me, i want you to know ill accept you no matter what"

#no #but bc my family is too not emotional #like we don't do any emotions around eachother #those are for Private time #and that convo would be too close to emotions #when I did come out my mom rolled her eyes and my dad said something sarcastic about what a big surprise it was #I was never closeted coming out was just saying I am dating ____#and ___ was a girl #actually ___ is now engaged and took an engagement photoshoot in my fav childhood indie book store #also I grew up in a very queer town #a lesbian couple lived 2 doors down #they had two kids in the same school as me but they were a lil younger #so lesbian couple had kids born in I think 2001 Ontario #and my home town is the best place for finding a surrogate in Canada #and like in 90s/00s when that process was harder there were lots of extra resources their for surrogacy #and this happened bc my hometown has such a high lesbian population #so like.... my parents are not homophobic .#I am very lucky

something i have always found really weird is when english texts italicize words from other languages.

i remember reading a book as a kid and the author continually italicizing the word tamales

one of the funniest conversations I ever had with my ex was when they were still getting used to Celsius and asked me "what's 20 degrees?" and instead of converting it, I said "it's the highest your dad will ever let you set the thermostat and when you say you're cold he tells you to put on another sweater, we're not made of money" and they went "oh, 68"

the fact that this reference was that fucking precise was something they went on to tell people about for years.

#damn wouldn't work for me #my mom never lets the thermostat go over 18 in the winter #just put on another sweater

been sort of obsessively combing through articles and websites and resources about top surgery and recovery more and more as I gear up to My Big Day and while I hate to report I may have gotten through most of the scientifically rigorous and reputable sites I am at least, now, stumbling over some of the funnier AI generated slop images i've ever seen in my quest for Patient Information

The first rule of sewing is you can fix anything if you have patience, creativity, and a little bit of extra fabric! The second rule of sewing is AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

I bring a real 'actually people who are pregnant do deserve some special consideration because they are effectively at least temporarily disabled if not permanently after some complications' vibe to the party that a lot of people don't seem to like
