I always come back. The horizon remembers. Home was never a house. I learned distance here. This horizon raised me.

Cradling the sunrise 🌅

The iconic Rockabill Lighthouse stands watch in the distance as the Tidy Towns sculpture (by Shane Holland) frames the morning sun. Lots of cloud on the horizon but still a beautiful hazy sunrise on Red Island!

#OTD in Irish History | 7 April:

AD 30 – A favourite exhibit in Dublin’s National Museum is the 12th Century Cross of Cong. The True Cross that was brought to Ireland and displayed in different places around the country. The cross is so-called because it was kept in the Augustinian Friary at Cong, Co Mayo, for centuries. It was made to enshrine a relic of the True Cross, known from written sources to have been acquired in AD…

baby's first tumble (is that what posts are called here? idk)

okay hi yes hello, I am anna but I go by slowfox on the internet and I use they/them pronouns. my dear friend annemarie asked me to make a tumblr for her birthday, so I did, and now that it's waaaay later in the year, I am actually using it for the first time

idk how people actually use tumblr (i'm a twitter refugee), but I've had this idea to create some metafiction around a solo progressive rock/metal project I've had for the last few years called Skerries, and tumblr seems like the only remaining functional social platform to launch it on, so I am finally diving in and getting my hands dirty over here.

anyway, I'm a huge nerd, big fan of sci-fi/fantasy and heavy music, though I generally have broad tastes and I'm fascinated by many many things. I have no idea how often I'll use my personal account but I figured I'd at least get on here and post since I'm kickstarting the metafiction thing today. feel free to follow along with that on my other page, skerriesblog.tumblr.com follow me on this one for a random smattering of content related to critical role, metal music, queer culture, and whatever else floats through my head. ok thanks tumblr, be nice to me
