oh hey i forgot to post this here!

A double birthday! Jachike is 2 and my twins, Adaeze and Chidi, are 6!

Jachike is very inquisitive and extremely smart for his age. I found him flipping through a children’s bible the other day and I think he was actually understanding what he was reading!

As for my twins, they’re excited to join Nnadi and Kelechi in Onyeka Academy. I worry about them, though. Chidi lacks the confidence a young man should have and while Adaeze isn’t as willful as she was as a toddler, she’s calmed down far too much and lacks a happy countenance. Hopefully as they grow, the blessings they receive from God will make them happier servants for Him. (Chidi rolled the loner trait and Adaeze rolled the gloomy trait)

Chukwuma also celebrated the big 40 recently! I forgot to post about it because he didn’t want a party; he thinks birthdays would be better spent thanking God for another year than selfishly celebrating ourselves.

Lastly, I had the best birthday present for everyone!

I’m pregnant… with a second set of twins! My appointment to learn the genders is tomorrow!

With Love, Bre <3

🔥😾

So jojo joined a space where Dream stans were talking and then somehow they started talking about dnf and they were explaining the quiz to her and kara corvus joined too I guess and now she's followed some of them

no yeah i already knew that

I never finished neon genesis Evangelion

Being a “Fun Fact !” kind of autistic is all fun and games until you get halfway through sharing an interesting tidbit and realize that it probably wasn’t appropriate to share in polite company and now you have to deal with the consequences :(

I've been loving your domestic life Astarion and Dorian comics! Both the actual content and your drawing style are so good!

No pressure to answer at all, but I'm super curious how Dorian would have handled being a sea horse dad? Like super uncomfortable gender disphoria or glowing and loving it?

thank you!!!

i think he probably would’ve just vibed through it? elf gender roles are funky and he’s not really ‘gender conforming’ anyway so i feel like he’d just be chill about it

also there would be a Lot of knitting to do as a distraction

can’t stop crying over arthur loving merlin for merlin. like he fr thought he was just some guy but guess what? that’s his some guy. and he’d stick with him forever. i think i’m gonna throw up

Prompt 292

“Oh I am blaming all of this on you T,” one of the beings in the summoning circle groans, burying their corpse-pale head in clawed hands as their white hair flickered. 

“Me? Excuse me, I wasn’t the one to accept the summoning!” another being protested, hood hiding most of their face save for molten-gold eyes and glittering runes or code on dark blue skin. “I was trying to figure out how to convince PK to change our schedule to include more sleeping, so don’t look at me, look at S!” 

“Well I didn’t accept it,” the only girl-sounding one scoffed, her crown of thorns seeming to writhe and bloom in her black hair for a moment. She crossed her arms, narrowing green eyes just a few shades darker than the white-haired one. “Maybe talk to whoever decided to summon us?” 

All of the sudden the cultists and heroes were being peered down at by a trio of… honestly whatever they were, because they didn’t seem to be the “Infinite King” the cult had been attempting to summon. Actually, they kind-of-maybe looked like kids… Which probably meant their parents or caretakers wouldn’t be too pleased. 

went down an ao3 rabbit hole and this is the first time in my life i’ve seen a dni against women

It’s a good thing that Merlin doesn’t ever push Arthur when he’s showing affection because Arthur would implode immediately if he had to think too long about it. Could you imagine the (deleted!!) sigil scene if:

Arthur: Just… take it. Merlin: Why are you giving me this?

Arthur: *sweating* Arthur: It’s… a bird. And you’re a bird. Merlin: …what?

Arthur: You know because… a merlin.

it will never stop being funny/sad seeing a different transmisogynistic transfem make this same tired ass post every other year and inevitably attract insane transmisogynists calling random trans women pedophiles and predatory in the notes for talking about consensual kink she enjoys with her lovers or whatever else, never makes it clearer that the point is transmisogyny and apologizing/making space for it because those people are always tolerated whereas trans women asking if someone reblogging from someone they don’t know is always a tacit show of universal support are blocked. it’s an intellectually dishonest misportrayal of what some transfems say (who is saying these things you’re claiming to are being ‘inherently linked to transfeminity’? is that what’s actually being said? what does this statement do if not just accuse a voiceless group of trans women of being pedophilic incestous Evils?) that directly likens many to apologizing for and normalizing pedophilia, playing off the readers bias to see trans women as predators despite the reality that this “normalization” is only really happening for cnc and incest rp kinks and barely at that. you’re not making it out of the pit

Would you believe me if I said I actually didn't like him–

today, my coworkers’ refusal to see me as a man put one of our patients in a position where they felt unsafe for the third time. i’ve been at this job for less than two months total. i don’t even care about getting misgendered anymore, i just want the people we’re supposed to be taking care of to feel comfortable around me.

i work at a hospital where we have to supervise our patients in a lot of vulnerable situations. there are safeguarding rules in place for certain things that male employees aren’t allowed to be present for when it comes to female patients. and yet, the people training me and telling me what to do have repeatedly put me in situations where i’ve been forced to do things that the female patients aren’t comfortable with me doing. and because they have repeatedly failed to teach me the rules for doing my job as a man, i have no way of knowing when i’m crossing one of those lines unless one of the patients tells me.

i’ve had to watch a victim of SA stare at me in abject terror as my coworkers asked her to strip naked with me still in the room. it took several minutes for her to even be able to speak enough to ask if i could leave the room. i found out after that she broke down crying the moment i walked out. my biggest regret is that i didn’t realize what was happening fast enough to leave before she ever had to say something, because she shouldn’t have had to say it. i never should’ve been allowed in the room in the first place, because that’s not something male employees are supposed to be present for. but i didn’t know that yet, because i was training and i thought surely, they wouldn’t train me to do something that directly violated their own safeguarding rules. that moment was the first time, and it’s haunted me ever since, but it wasn’t the last time. not only did it happen for the third time today — it almost happened for the fourth, and would have if someone hadn’t spoken up to say they should pick someone else. i care for these people so deeply, it’s why i took this job, and i’m so tired of hearing the fear in their voices when they have to ask me not to do something i never should’ve been told to do.

i’m very used to the personal discomfort of being misgendered. i willingly deal with it a lot at work as well as in other situations, not because i’m in the closet (at this point in my medical transition that would be impossible), but because it’s such a frequent occurrence with my coworkers that we would never get anything done if i took the time to correct them every time. but to see it get to the point of causing such visceral discomfort in other people? people i’m supposed to be taking care of and keeping safe? that’s something else entirely, and i’m fucking exhausted.

and after all of that, some of them still look at me like i have two heads when they tell me what to do and i say “i can’t do that, only female employees can” because i’m learning now. clearly i’m already seen as a man by our patients, but my coworkers would still rather put them in an unsafe situation than just train me as a man.

and that’s a wrap guys!! I’m not okay!! But at the same time I’ve never been better!!
