using violence to liberate people from sweatshops, unsafe mines, and grinding poverty isn't the same as using violence to impose those things on people. the idea that violence is morally repugnant regardless of context is a belief that every oppressor throughout history would love for the oppressed to hold
Cellphone picture of an attempt at making a more unique face for my character. Unfortunately for me, a family member destroyed my tablet & so all my records are lost forever. Woe to me. RIP Low Income Tablet - 2024 to 2024.
Adult Transgender Legislative Risk Map, November 2024
This map is made and maintained by transgender journalist Erin Reed. She read all 550 bills targeting trans people in America in 2023 and 586 so far in 2024 and she scores state safety based on proposed and enacted legislation. She regularly updates the map (including explanations of recent legislative changes) on her site. She has a separate map for trans youth (which: warning, is even more scary), since a lot of policies target minors specifically.
It’s depressing as all hell, but Erin does great work and I’ve been using her maps to plan my career and vacations for years. It’s helped me figure out where to apply for grad school, and helps me keep track of what states I cannot do a layover in while flying because of bathroom bills.
here’s the current map as of January 19th, 2025

Oh no. MAGA is mad that the NYT shared the names of DOGE staffers. Don’t share this! Would be a shame

Not dying but being killed by mortal folks with names & addresses...
Had a chance & time to play with an art app...
With further practice & tools, perhaps I can make art to the modern quality I'd prefer.
This was an attempt at coloring a rough sketch. Styled as a Costume Design Portrait depicting my TES 2: Daggerfall character. Inspiration was taken from TES 1 & 2 Character Paperdolls & the "Nightjar" shinobi of the game Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice.
Specifically, my proportions are terrible as shown by the head width, hand size, & knee height. My focus was on coloring, which I was not satisfied by my choices nor the application here.
Torso should be darker, light should match the color & direction of the background, & I failed to use highlights to accentuate the figure. Software was crude & I'm ignorant of its' fine tuning, especially the post facto compression effects that highlight my shortcomings. My coloration failed to characterize the figure but a large aspect would be fabric damage & filth, which is currently beyond my skills.
Still, a decent start...
My idea was that this is a member of a traveling Theater Troupe, working to change the Theater Set between scenes as a "Stage Ninja". Actor, Acrobats, & Prostitutes were once synonymous & regularly forced out of urban centers.
Outcasts tell the best stories says I.
Perhaps a Theater Troupe is commissioned for a celebration at a remote castle & it all goes terribly wrong, the Lord being an academic of a Vampiric nature, with the Player Character being freed by this surviving stagehand.
I hope I can craft such a questline!
My Character Art
Hello there, Stranger!
Here's hoping that you are in good health. This be some of my artwork for an old character of mine. They were intended for the older Elder Scrolls 2 Daggerfall & 3 Morrowind quest mods I've been working on for... Oh, more than a decade now. She is a Orsimer, a Orc, raised in Vvardenfell & though I don't have a "real" name yet I have her life & questlines mostly finished.
I refer to her as Yaomo "the Spider", a runaway child raised Morag Tong enforcer that becomes a Redoran Privateer secretly helping runaway slaves escape Morrowind. It is based on the writing methods of Ted Petersons' Historical Fantasy & Kirkbrides' Team usage of Metaphysical Abstraction.
I've written about it more below. Read if interested & tell me your thoughts, please & thank you. Advice on art is also welcomed!
Regardless, please drink clean water & rest when able. You deserve nice things!
Orcs are based on the nomads of the Eurasian Steppe (specifically the Mongol invasions over the Carpathian Mountains), living mostly east of the Wrothgarian Mountains as established in Daggerfall. I've based this characters' features on mixed Eurasians, though I'm not a skilled artist. The 2 Profile pics that focus on her face are what I intend for Yaomo.
As a young adult, she is tasked will eliminating an ambitious wizard in the Daggerfall Region & must travel there from Vvardenfell. She befriends the target only to get captured & terrorized. The player is captured months later but together they escape & ultimately get their revenge through a dungeon built of traumatic events which define different historic eras. Yaomo can then accompany the player before she returns home to Vvardenfell.
In Morrowind, Yaomo has CPTSD & manipulated an alcoholic Redoran aristocrat into letting her captain their merchant ship as a Privateer. She uses this to move cargo, hunt contraband smugglers, & help runaway slaves escape. The player shares in a Lovecraftian mystery that further traumatises Yaomo & cripples her, with the quest built for roleplaying & the results being Yaomo becoming a traumatized monster or further building a happier life to help others.
Lovecraftian elements utilize the unfinished Dreugh & Bosmeri Morrowind lore, based around factions secretly serving the Gods & their efforts to minimize Generational Trauma on Nirn by gathering the Dark Waters [traumatic memories] on the ocean bottom.
So, what do you think?
Above, the artwork depicts Yaomo in her young adult state while in Daggerfall. She is physically based on the Olympian Saori Kimura, growing into a physique of Shiho Yoshimura, though I'm not a skilled artist given my resources. Not depicted is her health issues, as I want them to be rotting from parasites as a young adult. Her personality I based on the isolated "One Armed Wolf" of "Sekiro", the terrified Otoyo from "Red Beard", & the helpful weirdo Shinji from "Paradise Killer". She avoids social situations but speaks bluntly & is confrontational when mistreated. She has different motif bases on the different stages of her life.
