Finally put some pants on these guys so I can actually post about them on main a bit MUMMIES! And a still living attendant, whose social status is at a crossroads between 'temple priestess' and 'prostitute we don't talk about'. And now I'm gonna babble about the background lore of these characters who exist to draw fucky mummies

So. In a world where death is broken and pretty much anyone who dies has a decent chance of coming back in some form, a lot of different practices have evolved in order to handle this. Cremation, culling, ghoul burials, tossing the body somewhere far away and spinning it around 13 times so it can't find it's way back...so on and so forth. One such method is based on gratification: the belief that if the undead are simply given what they want, they'll be able to move on. Hungry ghost theory. And this is largely true! The benign dead are simple, often only seeming to crave the most basic pleasures of life: Warmth, food, and companionship. Of course it's never that clean cut or pristine, and the second-living often crave physical attention even more than the living, so attendants provide that too. Which doesn't always go over well with...well most people. In settlements this is practiced attendants are typically living somewhere fairly removed from the general populace and required to mark themselves in some way, so that other citizens may react to them appropriately when in the same space. This semi-seclusion and self identification can make them some of the first people to be made examples of in the event of a culture clash wherein the other party sees the practice as intolerable. On the the more fun side, these sects are often in charge of hosting festivals and bringing in everyone's long tall grandmas for tea and cakes and music, so it's a real mixed bag. And then there's the mummies. Mummies are sort of an odd case in this world; where most second-living lose a notable chunk of their complexities upon resurrection, a mummy's personality is often just as preserved as its body, and is therefore much harder to please than the average wraith. Hell, some even come back with a job, and will not be happy to be removed from that job. Yuli's friends here are likely temporary visitors- Bogs in particular was a public nuisance who is currently being housed while they work on them being less of a pest and drinking all the beer at the local inns. Mummies are very thirsty, as you might imagine.

going to start researching sheep breeds that are like endangered or need conservation and then seek out their wool to use, preferably buying directly from the herders, so i can support them

[dearbisexual]

i found a farm that has Navajo-Churro sheep and sells their wool as roving and yarn directly to the public, along with several other uncommon breeds :) website here

[dearbisexual]

holy shit theres a lot of small farms out there with heritage breed sheep n other animals selling their fiber!!

[dearbisexual]

re: your tags, totally fine to reblog!! there's a whole database of farms im looking at now on the Livestock Conservancy website!! here's the link, all you have to do is select "yarn" or "fiber" from this drop down menu

and it'll give you contact info and websites to A BUNCH of small farms selling their heritage breed fiber directly!! you can also look up by animal breed if you want a specific kind of fiber like, say Navajo-Churro

it's AWESOME!! many of these farms seem to be certified by the Conservancy and the Conservancy itself seems to be like a good nonprofit

On the subject about parents needing to control their child's reading and invade their privacy in order to "protect" them from "inappropriate material:

Until I was in....college? At least? The vast, vast majority of the books I read were either a) assigned by my school or b) (the vast majority of my reading) provided to me by my mother.

My mom is a librarian. She filled our rooms with books, picked especially for us. She pointed out books on the shelves in our home library (separate from our bedroom shelves) that she thought we would like. She bought us books for birthdays, Christmas, and just stacks of recommendations. She once paid me $10 to read one of the Cirque Du Freak books because she said I needed "to be exposed to bad literature."

She respected my privacy in room, didn't go through my belongings. She explicitly pointed out to us that she wouldn't know if we took a particular book of the shelf, as long as we returned it, if we didn't want her to know we were reading it. She purposely brought us books that she didn't care for herself, because she thought we might find them valuable or enjoyable.

And if we wanted to read something she thought might upset or disturb us, she would explain why. She wouldn't stop us from reading it - just ask us to check in with her, to talk through it.

And so when I read something that upset or disturbed me, I would go to her. She would listen and talk through it with me.

If she said she didn't think I would like something, or that a book might disturb me, or that she thought I should wait until I was older, I listened to her.

She didn't need restrictions or control to protect me. Because she proved I could trust her.

Controlling kids is never about "protecting" them. It's just about control.
