Ooooh I'm Jealous!

You did it! And yes of course you get a cookie, as promised!

I made them with my mom! We used Martha Stewart's recipe for "old fashioned sugar cookies". It says "well done" if you can't tell. That stuff is pretty hard to write with! We even ate it for you!

Whoever can translate the Alternian into english gets a cookie!

I threw together some mother's day e-cards! here's a sweet one:

and here's a cursed one:

the second one is more biologically specific, but the first one can work for all sorts of motherly figures. I'll be sending both to my mom, and I'll show the first one to my cat because she's a mom! and I'll make father's day ones next month!

Happy pride month, folks!!!!

updated 3/6/2024 with Gaza Wound Care & We Feed Gaza. I wanted to focus on Palestinian-run grassroots initiatives that will actually reach Gazans on the ground, so all of these except eSIMs, PCRF, MAP are by Palestinians. i have verified them but please feel free to do your own vets for your peace of mind.

Remember small donations really do add up. Any amount counts, even $1!

[ID: Tegiri (referred to in the original text as "cop") is investigating a crime, and asks, "can you describe the woman who stabbed you?" Zebruh (referred to as "male author") strikes a dramatic pose and replies, "lithe, spirited, outgoing, and not afraid to speak her mind. she was a raw sexual force and she knew it. she was dandelion fluff on a summer day, gone in an instant, leaving you with nothing the memory of her touch and the faint taste of strawberries on your lips." the cloaked woman who stabbed him is behind him, looking pissed. Tegiri says, "great, we have a motive, but we still need a description." / end IDs.]

opalescent-apples reblogged this with the tag "undescribed". I hear ya! I've been meaning to add image descriptions to my old posts, so here's a start! if y'all have any other specific posts you'd like image descriptions of, you can reblog them like this and I'll see it, or you can send asks. I want to make this blog more accessible, so please keep letting me know which posts to prioritize!

one more thing, after all the time that has passed since I made this, I still can't fucking believe that the first thing Zebruh describes her as is "lithe", which can mean "graceful", but it also can mean "skinny". she was strong enough to stab a highblood and he immediately wants to say that she's skinny. ugh.

She’s coming back to finish the job!
