Don’t like totally post on here anymore, atleast like writing stuff. I’ve been in a huge writing block- and no matter how hard I try I just can’t,
I am however a lot more active on my reading blog.

Asher, aka Saint, is an Outlaw Biker in a small town. His parents up and left him and his brothers who are still in middle school. He works at the MC owned mechanic autoshop. He is protective over those he cares about. He likes motorcycles and muscle cars.
I tried a group chat with Asher and one of my other characters- Colton. I played with the scenario of being Colton’s daughter and dating the ‘bad boy’ Asher. It was a lot of fun- I’d definitely say if you like the group chats to try it out.
If ya’ll want a better breakdown of my characters on character.ai this blog has/will come out with aesthetics for the characters.
Hey guys. If ya’ll are looking for some original characters to mess around with I have tons. I use character ai to mostly test characters that I am thinking of using for my writings. It’s actually kinda cool. I like it so far. I do have two characters from media though. I have Alcide from True Blood and I have Bankotsu from InuYasha.
Most of my characters are OCs and I leave the introductions as a way to set the scene; so they are open for a ton of options for you to play around with.
I have a Roman Gladiator that is the bastard son of the Emperor who has been disgraced and is now working to clear his name. It’s open for you to whether you’re an old love, a child friend, the one who disgraced him, etc. Did he get framed for murder? Was it a plot to get close to the Emperor? You guys have control.
There’s a Sci-fi ex-military Space Captain who is not always a rule follower. Are you a passenger? A crew member? A prisoner? What is he smuggling? Is there an illness on board? An alien? (Aka Heathen works really well with the Ship AI bot.)
Asher, aka Saint, is an Outlaw Biker in a small town. His parents up and left him and his brothers who are still in middle school.
Colton is a single father that owns a ranch in a small town. (I tried a group chat with him and Asher- where I was Colton’s daughter and dating Asher it was fun)
Reika’s father is King Lycaon, the Ancient Greek King from mythology who was cursed by Zeus to turn into a wolf. The first werewolf. Are the rumours true? Are you Reika’s secret lover? Sibling? Friend? Are you there to help her family or ruin it?
Nikolai is a member of the Russian Mafia in Vegas. His family owns the casino, and he is an enforcer. Watch out- he’s possessive and a bit of a play boy.
Calvin is an undercover cop who is investigating the very same prestigious college he used to go to. There are rumours of secret societies, ghosts, witches. How would you fit in? Are you helping him? Or are you there to stop him?
Mikhael is in a medieval fantasy. He is a mercenary. His a sword fighter and a battlemage. Do you have a job? Are an enemy? Someone who works with him?
Ya’ll have complete control to shape the stories yourselves.
Have fun~
Edit 1:
Kiera is an African-American Marine Biologist fresh out of college. She is easy going, a surfer, and smart woman. She has a mother and an older brother. Her specialty in the field are sharks and whales. She is just heading out for a two month expedition. Join her on this expedition. Are you a stowaway on board? Crew member? Another scientist? The Captain? A friend or a rival?

I think I already reblogged this but im gonna do it again because this is a good reminder on how toxic gatekeeping it.
I’m reblogging this for the amount of thought that was put into figuring out the necessary configuration for a mertaur wheelchair.
MMMMM, the LAYERS to this.
She’s technically a monster too. She might not look it at first glance and seems mostly human, but it isn’t deniable even despite her looks compared to the other monsters.
But she realizes that she is still not like the rest of the monsters either and may not have entirely the same experiences as them, which is why she feels that she might not belong to or deserve to go to the support group. By sometimes passing as human, she feels she isn’t worthy of the space.
The sad reality though is even though she’s mostly human in appearance, that tail she has undeniably would still cause her some struggle. Humans are still gonna look at that tail and think she’s a freak. There are probably still accommodations she needs because of the tail that she may still struggle to have access to. Even if it is just the tail, that tail is still enough to other her from humans and cause her problems and discrimination.
She should get to belong in that support group even if she gets told she’s not monster “enough”. She still shares some of the same struggles as them that are caused by being a monster, and needs support.
This is an excellent demonstration of the flaws in the concept of passing privilege. Bravo to the artist.
NOW I will reblog this.
Okay but this is super funny to me. The vegetarian thing happened to me too.
Like MC panicked and momentarily forgot they weren't vegetarian. Like, "Oh shit, it's the next day what do I say. I hope it isn't awkward."
Shay making breakfast: "Vegetarian?"
MC: "YES,I AM VEGETARIAN"..... fuck, why did I say that!? Now I have to be vegetarian. What if we get married, will I have to be vegetarian for the rest of my life?
HAHHAA.
Joony: So what made you decide to be vegetarian? Health reasons? Environmental concerns? 'Cause animals have feelings?
MC: Uhhhhhh.... Actually it was because I panicked and told Shay I was, and haven't yet got a chance to correct myself.
MC's tombstone: Here lies an accidental vegetarian. RIP.
I just think if Shay found out that MC was so flustered that this happened he’d probably be so smug about it. Total ego booster. Also poor MC would never live this down- he’d probably make a vegetarian breakfast for their anniversary from that point on.
The return of cowboy Mando
This was an amazing commission I did for @abigail ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
They gave me the ok to share and sell it as a print so everyone can enjoy him 🥰

Makes it even better when the actor that was in the suit for the time Pedro Pascal wasn’t, is the grandson of John Wayne! Totally helps the whole space cowboys take on the Mandolorians
Reblogging to the right blog…I’m stupid and wasn’t paying much attention when I did that…
Listen this is important, I need memorable quotes from Tiran Kandros
This is very important ok, I need a good one but he doesn’t HAVE many lines in game, maybe something from the comics???
“I just want another chance, and I’m willing to do whatever it takes to get one.”
“If the andromeda initiative was a threat, I was going to strangle it at its source.”
Thats all I can really think of right now.
i learned that in August 2014 Women’s Voices for the Earth commissioned testing of four types of Always menstrual pads, manufactured by Procter & Gamble. The certified laboratory STAT Analysis Corporation analyzed the products for volatile organic compound.
“The results of the testing indicate that both scented and unscented Always pads emit toxic chemicals, including chemicals identified by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services National Toxicology Program, the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry, and the State of California Environmental Protection Agency as carcinogens, and reproductive and developmental toxins. None of these chemicals are disclosed on the product by the manufacturer.” (x)
I switched to dye free fancy cotton pads, after years of having periods so fucking bad I would sometimes faint, and now i just get like. regular cramps occasionally, they’re not even that bad anymore.
i switched back to these after using fancy organic cotton pads during my most recent period & they caused PROBLEMS out of the blue - 100% confirmed, these are not good to use
been using these reusable menstrual pads since november 2019 and im never going back to these commercial pads. commercial pads like these always gives me skin rashes which is so annoying. switch to reusable i swear you’ll not only be period-ready but also rashes-free!
psa they also have a starter pack in case you want to switch and you dont know what to get and an xl size for plus sized women!
EXPLAINS ALOT. WOULDVE BEEN NICE TO KNOW AWHILE AGO. COOOOOOL.
Plus, there’s a study that showed that vagina are highly vascular so, basically, every chemical you put down there is absorbed by your body real fast and really well. In short, ditch tampon too.
TAMPONS are dangerous frequently the direct cause of TSS TOXIC SHOCK SYNDROME
Yeah, reusable pads were one of my first major eco-friendly changes but my body has been way happier that way. They are infinitely more comfortable and effective, and I just throw them in my washing machine on the hand wash + extra rinse and hang dry. I can’t say being on your period is ever pleasant, but it’s way better than before - ESPECIALLY in situations where you can’t change as often - and I don’t feel like the harbinger of the end of the world when I look at my restroom trash can anymore :)
I always buy generic brands but wasnt “always” the ones who were sending fucked up pads to women in africa just a few years ago too???? Fuck always brand.
PSA!!!
they now have a budget-friendly trial pack so you no longer have to worry which pad fits best for you. you can just buy the pack to get one pad of each size!!
Could the fact that i use Always brand be the reason i get such bad cramps?? I must test this theory…
Also, pads can take up to 800 years to decompose. Yikes.
Cariona pads (link above) are AWESOME. Don’t knock it til you try it - I’ll never go back to always pads. My period is, like, manageable, for the first time in my life. It is no longer a struggle with excruciating cramps, heavy bleeding, leakage, and looooong periods, but like, mild to medium cramps, and I HAVE A CYCLE AGAIN for the first time in years. Try it. The upfront cost is daunting, I understand, because I was worried I wouldn’t like them, but I’m SO GLAD I got them. Just toss them in bottom of your shower when you take them off, shower as usual, and then squeeze them out. That basically rinses them for you, and then they’re all set for the washer and dryer. You’ll thank yourself later; give it a try.
Why isn’t anyone talking about how cute the Cariona pads are? They look adorable tbh
Cariona pads are amazing and they are SO cute. Like @maybeitsfinallytime was saying, they’re really easy to rinse out, and I usually hang them over my shower rod to dry so I can reuse them during the cycle, then give them a proper wash in hot water with a little sanitizing detergent afterwards.
Here’s to trying some. I even bought the animal crossing variety! Maybe I’ll never worry about running out of pads again? Who knows? I’ll update when I’ve tried them.
For people who menstruate 🩸….
UPDATE: I just ordered the trial pack. I personally have a lot of problems with excruciating cramps my cycle being consistent, especially in recent months after losing weight and medications and such. Hopefully these work well/help because I always feel guilty about the amount of waste normal pads create
Due to when the reusable pads I ordered arrived I ended up switching literally in the middle of my last period and the difference was instant, I’ve gotten really bad cramps for as long as I can remember and still did the first half this time around but I didn’t cramp at all wearing the reusable pads. I highly recommend the switch.
I bought the cariona pads too and oh my gosh. The difference. I went from painful cramps and headaches to just mild cramps for like a day. They are so easy to use and so comfortable.
Been saying this for years and people thought I was crazy, it definitely affects us women and we should have a say in how these things are manufactured.
hi these are the reusable pads i use and while they do slide around a little bit, i haven’t once gotten throbbing sensitive skin around my vulva or shooting pains down my legs since using them. i used to think that was a part of having my period but now i’m convinced it was from the pads and tampons i was using. not to mention i save tons of money on disposables.
I’m definately going to try and save up for some of the reusable pads. My cramps have been terrible all my life and all I’ve ever used is always pads so that could very well be the reason for my bad cramps :/
I’ve been on reusable pads since I had my child four years ago and they have been a game-changer! No more rashes or irritation, no more sweaty grossness, way fewer UTIs, no “it’s stuck to my pubic hair again” moments… My girl down there can just breathe and do her thing. 1000% recommended.
Not just for women but for all people who have periods 💕
Okay but like, this would be nice to know MUCH SOONER. I hate how ignorant we (people who menstrate) are unaware of crap like this.
I’ve had cramps so painful I’ve been unable to go to work or school all because people can’t make pads without adding chemicals. I’m buying reusable ones once my paycheck is in.
I bought em. They work well.
oh well, here goes nothing
Been using these Cariona reusable pads for about two years now and even if it’s an expensive start-up cost, it’s worth it. No more spending money on pads and tampons at the store, no more cramping, smell or rash/irritation, they’re easy to take care of and the designs are awesome! So much more comfortable and healthier. I genuinely cannot rec these enough, PLEASE at least give these a chance.
I just ordered some and I must say, their customer service is STELLAR! I’ve never had such a pleasant and helpful experience as I did with them. They even let me choose the patterns of things that normally would have been random. Amazing! I’m definitely trying them out and giving a review of how they work for me.
I’m one who has a super heavy flow- would the reusable pads be okay for that? Does anyone know? I have to use the nighttime always pads- but I have to like change them 2/3 times a day. Would switching be a viable option?

Who the hell is Don Bluth?
Fun fact: when I like 2-4 years old. I was super into Thumbelina. I would spend all day watching the movie. I would watch the VCR, rewind it on the slowest speed and watch it backwards only to rewatch it. I drove my poor stay at home mom( at that time) crazy. I even played Thumbelina in my kindergarten play.
I swear I’m going to crazy! I can’t focus, I pick up a book read it love it and then stop only to pick up another book read it love it and then stop.
Like I’m reading these
(Area X by Jeff Vandermeer it has all the whole Southern Reach trilogy in it)
And now I just found out that Twisted came out and now I want to pick that one up too.
Like can I just pick up a book and read it and finish it before moving on. I feel like I can’t focus. What is going on? I’m getting frustrated with myself at this point. It’s why I haven’t finished anything recently I just can’t.
I spent all day helping my friend move stuff around- and whenever we had down time we both got reading in. I am so happy to say that Oh My God! I think it just like hit a reset button or something. I was able to finish Episode Thirteen from page 40 all the way to the end at page 448. It feels like I got my focus back. WOOT!
someone: sherlock holmes is a machine, haven’t you read the books—
me, opening up my ornate copy of acd’s sherlock holmes, with its tender illustrations, pointing blindly to any line holmes says: he’s a sweet boy
Holmes: *catches Watson’s eye and bursts into helpless giggles*
Holmes: “No, you haven’t committed an actual crime, but if the lady has a brother or a friend he ought to lay a whip across your shoulders. In fact–” *flushes with rage* *grabs riding crop* *smug ill-treater of women flees in terror*
Holmes: *philosophizes about goodness* *sees God in a rose*
Holmes: *constantly frets that Watson - who adores Holmes so transparently he practically walks around with hearteyes - will stop admiring him if he explains his deductions and takes the magic out of them* *like* *the master of observation is straight-up oblivious to the fact that Watson thinks he hung the moon* *or else too insecure to accept the blindingly obvious*
Holmes: *is extraordinarily sensitive to the signs of abuse, and unfailingly gentle and careful with abuse victims*
Holmes: *encounters particularly engaging puzzle of a case* *rubs fingers in glee* *quite literally WRIGGLES IN HIS CHAIR out of sheer delight*
Holmes: *battles chronic depression for his entire life*
Holmes: *leaves a king’s handshake hanging because he treated his mistress poorly* *in fact, derives a good bit of his reputation for rudeness from the fact that he is supremely unintimidated by rank and power*
Holmes: “You look exhausted my dear doctor, lie down on our couch and let me play you to sleep with my violin”
Holmes: *uses drugs because his brain constantly runs at about 500000 rpms and he needs a fucking break*
Holmes: *goes to concerts, closes his eyes, and listens for hours with a soft half-smile of rapture on his face*
Holmes: *unselfconsciously chatters endearments at a dog*
Holmes: *devotes his entire life to helping people, and does it for free anytime someone can’t afford him*
Watson: *gets grazed by a bullet*
Holmes: *Pistol-whips Watson’s attacker* *drops to the floor and begs Watson to tell Holmes he’s all right* *upon confirming that his friend isn’t hurt, informs the would-be murderer in a cold, terrifying fury that if he’d succeeded in killing Watson he wouldn’t have made it out of the room alive*
Me: WTF STORIES DID THESE PEOPLE EVEN READ
