I thank God that he didn't make me American, what a diseased, grubby little people.
For your information, if you want to shame people into voting Biden because "He's better", do so without bringing up my people.
If you want to vote Biden, DO NOT EVER bring up the Palestinians - do NOT attend our rallies, DO NOT say you support us. Vote Biden with your whole fucking chest - and stay the hell away from me and my people.
If you vote Biden, do so without saying "He'll be better for Palestinians than Trump". DO NOT USE US for your political fuckery. We're NOT your toys, we're NOT your speaking points. You do NOT speak for us. Do not even perceive us.
Vote what you want, but stay away from us. And if you come to us for absolution about how it was hard but it had to be done? You're not forgiven. You do you. But fucking stay away from me and mine.
@kemvee tagged me in one of these and, as she said, it's been a while since I've done one! It was supposed to be for 10 people, but I don't know that many people who haven't already done this.
Relationship status: Married for 10 years in October! We've been together for 14 in August and have known each other since we were kids.

Song stuck in your head: I was listening to Last Podcast on the Left like a week ago and Henry sang “Ironic” and now I want to take a nail gun to my noggin.
Last thing you googled: “Map of Smithsonian campus” My sister and I are going in December!
Time: 10:12 pm (EST) Past my bedtime....

Most niche dislike: Anders and Solas. (Not together. That’s incredibly niche.)
Opinion on circus(es) now and in history: I think they served a purpose during a time in history when travel and education would have prevented most people from seeing such exotic animals and acts, but events like the Hartford Circus fire and the Hammond train wreck weren’t worth the entertainment value that was derived from debasing both humans and animals.
Do you have a sense of direction and if not what is the worst way you ever got lost: I’m very lucky in that I have an incredible sense of direction. Since I don’t have a story, I can tell you one about my mum. She was driving from Connecticut to Maine to meet my dad at their new house and ended up in Rhode Island. (I’m including a map for anyone who isn’t familiar with New England)
Tagging @charlatron, @kittimau, @raflesia65, @bigfan-fanfic, @jellysharkbat for funsies!
I have a little over 200 followers now... so I thought I would introduce myself properly...
So... Hi, my name is Jane, I go by Evil Ducky or Deathvalleyqueen on most social media save AO3 where i am LadyJane666 (because i was like 25 and thought I was super edgy when I signed up). I am a Thyroid Cancer survivor who now lives with chronic pain and am in the process of finding out why my body hates itself. I am a full time stay at home mom to my amazing minion who lives with his own chronic medical issues.
In my real life, I am a vocal advocate for Disability Rights and Health Care for all advocate among many other worthy causes, but I had to focus my efforts on one area because my body can’t keep up with everything my mind and heart wants to support. I don’t call myself a “Social Justice Warrior” or anything like that... I am just a normal person who tries to do her part to make the area around me better...
I come from a very diverse family, we have people of varying ethnic backgrounds, gender identities, and sexual orientations, and I don’t tolerate hate speech of any kind. Because at the core of everything we are all people and deserve respect and treatment based off actions not skin color, sex or who you date.
Personally, I call myself Irish-American, because my bio-dad and his family came to the US in the mid 1930′s (yes my bio dad was that old) from Ireland. My mother’s side also has fairly recent Irish Imagreints as well as some who have been in the US since the 1700′s. I really love diging into my family history because some of the best stories you may find are within your own family history. There was always talk of my father’s family being Travelers (Irish Travelers) but I have never found any like proof of this other than family stories. I am very proud of my Irish heritage and culture. One of the other big “special interests” of mine is Irish history, langue and culture... because I want to know where my family comes from and I have a great deal of respect for all the Irish people have endured and still endure. It gives me great pride to say that I can trace my family back there... because where we come from is important.
My non-da hobbies include baking, video chatting my sister, spending time with my minion and trying to make sure the stray cats in my neighborhood are semi-looked after. I would take them all in, but my husband has kindly asked me to not to... lol
My other big fandoms are ASOIAF/GoT, Fallout, The Witcher (this is a newer one), The Walking Dead, and I like SW but don’t actively engage with the fandom because I have strong and often unpopular opinions on the new films so rather than feed the flames of fandom unrest I choose not to engage.
I guess that’s me...
I like to think I am a friendly enough person and am always open to chatting with people. I just always ask that you be kind and respectful and I intern will be kind and respectful. If you come at me with harshness don’t expect me to be nice and obliging...
But I look forward to sharing more of Maeve’s story and little tidbits about my other ocs... Thanks for taking the time read this <3
So day 4 if my templates will be delayed because since oh...10am yesterday I have been on cookie hell cuz your girl....is extra and thinks making hundreds of cookies is "fun"
So... while I channel my inner bake off spirit and live in this royal icing hell scape for the next few days... I may miss a day or not post till like 11pm EST...
But... if y'all want cookie pictures & or recipes let me know... I am down to share the carbalicious love...
(PS... if you are a fandom artist in the Pittsburgh metro area.... and would trade art for baked goods to impress fam/friends/co-workers... this holiday season hit me up... I can make this happen 😂 )
my other fandom (read: obsession) is game of thrones. i’m attempting to do the ‘faith of the seven’ tarot series, but have only finished two of them. it was inspired by the da:i tarot cards, so figured to share it here. *shrug*
