Character Bio: Granny Feldspar

She/Her Race: Dragonborn Class: Barbarian

Found usually in the kitchens or fluffing the pillows in the dorms is an old copper dragonborn humming away. Her scales are beginning to blue with oxidized age and her snout's been battered by time. She's always wearing some flower patterened knit-shawl over loose pastel clothes.

This is Grandma Feldspar. No first name given she's just Granny if you need. Cookie-baker extraordinaire and pretty handy with her knitting needles (aim for the eyes if you need to dearie). Now you may be asking what a sweetheart like her is doing handing cookies out of her designated bag-of-holding-cookies-only to a guild full of chaotic ruffians and questionable characters. And then you'd probably notice the knuckle-dusters on her belt or the gleam in her eyes as someone throws the first punch.

Yeah, Granny isn't what she seems. For one, she's RIPPED, there's a toned body under those pastels and when she flexes her sleeves are in danger. Now the sweetness and care is earnest, and she does truly enjoy being a Grandma, but old Feldspar is... well... not as old as she seems.

She was a bit of a problem child when a fey carnival came around, and sneaking out of orphanages was her specialty. Asking a fey to help her grow up, that's just classic Feldspar foolishness I fear.

On the brightside! She did not have to deal with orphanages anymore! On the downside, everyone kept trying to send her to a nursing home.

Not to worries, Feldspar was a tenacious one, and shortly after realizing her new form didn't fully limit her movement or joy, she decided to make the best of it (it helped that she didn't have to go back to the orphanage anymore! ha-HA!!). Her new body was achy, but was also far stronger and held more potential than her smaller one. Everyone still underestimated her, but she rather liked that. Now-old Feldspar carved out a decent life for herself... in an illegal fighting ring. She became well known as the Grand Grandma and spent years living for the heat of a ring fight. A grand clash of pure ability and will. It gave her purpose, joy, and something that she was good at. She loved it.

So when it was busted a few years later, and a very old dragonborn appeared in court, she was spared jail time and sent somewhere far worse:

Sunny Acres Home for the Elderly

Kept under constant survellaince and subjected to the brutal torment of crochet and bingo. But, Feldspar once more tried to make the best of it. She learned the crucial skills of grandma-ing, and found joy in baking her favorite cookies and knitting poorly designed sweaters. She found new rivals in the local residents Charlotte, Karen, Sharon, and Margaret, but even that gave Feldspar some competition to look forward too.

Unfortunately, despite Granny Feldspar's appearence, she did not age the same as her rivals… or her friends, and within the decade she once more found herself alone, with no one to critique her poor crochet skills, point out when she dropped a stitch. It was a terrible torture to watch so many pass through and fade and she knew if she stayed... oh she just couldn't bear to keep watching it.

So Feldspar once more turned her attention to the great world that beckoned her forth. Equipped with her knitting needles (and her trusty knuckle dusters from her time in the ring) the Great Feldspar escaped her imprisonment, climbing the walls of Sunny Acres and heading out to spend the rest of her old age in adventure and glory. Falling into the feywild through a stray puddle was just a turn of good fortune. Several adventures later she found herself at the Spriggan's Head Guild, a place that appreciated both her baking skills and her love of the fight.

Now she bakes cookies for the collection of guild children and serenades them with stories. She's found a family in a younger gargoyle named Granite, and in this place of eternal adventure and wonder she doesn't have to worry about watching these people fade away in front of her.

Yes, here... she's finally found a home.

here's two articles about how JK Rowling just posted on X an upskirt photo of Freda Wallace, a transgender woman, after deadnaming her and misgendering her repeatedly online.

The wealthy author escalated a social media spat that resulted in posting a photo from a 2023 event at the Institute of Economic Affairs in

Rowling posted the picture taken from below because the trans woman, she said, was "refusing to debate me."

Thank you for posting without the fucking destiel meme

crypticarchivist

So in summation; Rowling demanded access to a woman’s time and when she couldn’t get it she retaliated by posting an upskirt image of her and called her fat, and some of her fans even went “I think I can see her genitals”.

She literally went “debate me! Debate me!” Over and over like the grifter she is and when she couldn’t get what she wanted and when “no” wasn’t enough she resorted to retaliatory sex-pestery, posting an image of somebody’s body with intention to shame and embarrass and spawn more waspish tittering from her internet followers.

Rowling is trash and this is disgraceful behavior, in case anyone has forgotten.

shabby-blog

She had also claimed Freda "deserved" this sexual harassment because of what she was wearing... You know... The same excuse used over and over to try and justify rape.

Do you think authors need more than just the dead dove tag to properly warn people of what's to come? For example, should I label my works "dddne because of *this* triggering topic" or is the dead dove tag simply enough?

dead dove tag alone doesn’t tell anyone anything. like. at all. dead dove means “you have been warned”, but if you don’t tell your readers what you’re warning them about, they’re not gonna know what the content of the fic you’re warning them about is. is it non-con? is it violence? is it gore? they’re not going to be able to know it. dead dove tag is supposed to be used to emphasize the actual warning tag(s). it’s not supposed to be used as a standalone tag.

that said, most writers don’t use “dead dove: do not eat because of xyz”. how it’s commonly used is “dead dove: do not eat” as one tag, and then different tags that tell the audience about the actual warnings.

for instance, “dead dove: do not eat”, “blood and gore”, “rape/non-con”, etc

fantastic. i love it. i posted this after my wife said it yesterday and as i was doing it i was like "this can't be an original thought. as soon as i hit post someone's going to say 'you stole this from a tweet from 2014' and i'll say 'no, i stole it from my beautiful wife.'"

I want to learn more exclamations that aren’t strictly just religious stuff. “Jesus Christ” this, “oh my god” that, nah I want something fresh.

What are some of y’all’s favorite exclamations that aren’t about god?

sexboobomb

sexboobomb

mbrainspaz

had a friend who used to make new ones up on the spot. The only one that stuck with me was 'good golly jelly beans'. If something catastrophic happens I go for 'that's not ideal.'

In case anyone hasn't heard, the cyclospora outbreak affecting tons of people in the US right now is coming from Taylor Farms produce. Best to stay away from bagged lettuce and prepared salads completely right now, but especially the ones mentioned in the screenshot:

Taylor Farms Earthbound Farms Little Salad Bar (Aldi) Marketside (Walmart) Kroger House Brand Target private label greens Costco salads and greens etc Trader Joe's chopped salad kits and fresh produce Fast food: McDonalds, Taco Bell, (Yum! Brands), Chipotle, Subway, Pizza Hut, KFC, Olive Garden, Top Golf, Red Lobster, Burger King, etc.

This is not the first time I've heard about a Taylor Farms foodborne illness outbreak. I stopped eating their salads after reading a description of the conditions in their facilities. Doesn't sound like they've improved anything.

We need a fully funded and staffed FDA, and regulations with teeth - and that's exactly what we don't have under Trump. To make things worse, the CDC is no longer tracking these outbreaks. We're on our own.

I remember one time I got INSANELY high off of edibles while playing Among Us, and it quickly became apparent to the other players online. I forget how honestly but literally anything "sus" I did was ignored by everyone because I was so fucking high. I tested this theory by standing in front of a body and the person that actually reported it didn't even mention me. The funniest part was when I was trying to do wires, I kept fucking up over and over again, so I was just standing in front of wires for actual minutes trying to figure it out. A small crowd of players gathered around me to watch and would get mad every time someone reported a body or emergency meeting because "she's never going to get her tasks done if you keep interrupting them." I don't think anyone cared about winning at that point, they just wanted to see the high crew mate succeed in her tasks.

Hey since TERFs buried the original, higher quality recording, here’s the only surviving recording of trans activist Sylvia Rivera’s infamous “Y'all Better Quiet Down” speech, along with full transcription, now free and open on Archive.org. The transphobic fucks can try their best to scrub us from history, but we’re not going anywhere.
