I Don't Live In Missouri Anymore (I Went To College In The State) But I Saw This And Had To Reblog. Public

I don't live in Missouri anymore (I went to college in the state) but I saw this and had to reblog. Public libraries are so important for so many people. Students, parents, kids, the elderly, and anyone who needs a computer but can't afford one. Please please please do your part in helping.

Missouri Citizens - Call to Restore State Aid for Libraries

A post I made a few days ago about the Missouri Legislature’s proposal to defund public libraries really blew up.

I’m happy to have helped spread the word about this issue as it’s not getting enough mainstream attention. But frustrated at the tone of the original post and the thought that it’s become a part of many people’s daily doomscroll.

This is bad, but there are things we all can and should do to make it better.

If you are a Missouri citizen, please go here and fill out the short form. It will use your address to contact your state senator about reinstating the full State Aid funding to Missouri’s libraries. You can also customize the message and I encourage you to do so.

If you have time and energy, consider calling your senator’s office as well. You can find out who your representatives are and find their contact information here. A short phone call letting them know you are a constituent and this issue is important to you can do a lot of good.

Ignore the naysayers who claim that contacting your representatives is a waste of time. I know people who intern in these offices and collect information on what the public contacts their representatives about. If enough people call about the same issue, it raises the profile of that issue on their agenda. It can make a difference, especially in a case like this where the mainstream media is not focusing on the story.

Please take a few minutes of your time if you are a Missourian to make your voice heard on the importance of libraries. And please reblog and spread the word even if you’re not a Missourian. With your help, maybe we won’t have to fight this fight in your homestate as well. Thank you.

Fantasy High: Sophomore Year

I finally watched and finished the second season of Fantasy High. I had watched the first season on youtube before I gotten the dropout subscription. So, I was quite excited to start it up early last week. I finished it up just the other day and my heart.

From the very start, I could not have guessed that the story was going to the places and ways that it ended up going. This image of the Unnamed Goddess being reborn into deity-hood. It was so moving and it really tied everything beautifully.

The various NPCs added or expanded upon were such wonderful bits of the story to be all added in. Adya became a fast favorite of mine. She was an amazing addition and I love how fast she was able to bond with Adaine and Fig.

All of the characters had such amazing moments throughout this entire campaign. Everyone got such cool and moving moments that delved into and developed their own individual backstories. I literally can't choose a favorite moment from this entire season.

Side note: I love that all of the fanmade Fig and the Cig Figs songs were uploaded on Spotify. They were made so well and really capture the feelings of the campaign.

This is a good thing to bring up. For example, where I live (Southern State plus a small town with less than 1000 for the population) we lost our tiny (volunteer) local library due to water damage of the building and it never recovered. I would have to go to one of the next towns over, which is at least a 20 minute drive, for which I don't have the means of going to as I am unable to drive. So, please be aware as much public libraries are nessacery and need support from the community more than ever- not everyone can get to a library unfortunately.

as a fellow Public Library Enthusiast i am begging people to consider the fact that not everywhere has an accessible public library or indeed public libraries at all. just saying “get a library card” at strangers when you have no idea about their background or their life isn’t very helpful. let them pirate in peace

listen. aging into your thirties rocks. yes your joints get a little creaky. yes you can’t sleep in a pretzel on the floor anymore after a concert or a convention. and you lose some friends. but the thing is that you sort out who your real friends are and you sort out who you really are. and you get to see your friends settling into careers they like, and adopt new dogs and cats, and you find a job you can stand, and get really good at arts and crafts, and maybe that book you loved as a kid gets a movie deal and it doesn’t suck, and you learn to like new food and bake your own bread, and you realize that the great portfolio of self harm scars you all used to curate are going white with age and not updated, and half your friends are a different gender now and so much happier and maybe you are too, and you know who you are, and that it’s a journey and not a revelation. it’s a direction you’re headed, and you’re enjoying the trip.

reaching your 30′s rocks. and i’m hearing good things about what comes next, too.

Lineart filled in with a pale purple and red. It depicts Fig and Kristen standing back to back, looking up, both in fantastical high fantasy armour. Behind them, much larger and also standing back to back, is Ankarna and Cassandra in their original goddess forms, looking down. Fig holds a bass with a sword embedded into the neck while Kristen holds her staff of doubt. Many pointed suns are depicted on Fig's armour, including as the fastening to a flowing cape. Smaller stars are depicted on Kristen's armour. Cassandra and Ankarna both have a curve suggestive of an eclipsed sun behind their heads. Small stars also float from Cassandra's upturned palm. Ankarna has a headband-like tiara made of multiple points to give the impression of a sun. Cassandra has a circlet across her brow with a large star in the centre.

The Unsleeping City: Chapter 2

I just finished this season last night and wow this was such a cool fucking season. The first season was the first campaign I watched for Dimension 20 before I got the dropout subscription and quickly fell in love with everyone.

This season was so heartwrenching and had so many wholesome moments. I'm so glad that all of the characters had such wonderful character arches that really fleshed them out even more than the first season did. Plus all of this insane worldbuilding of this world that both is a real place but also this underbelly of the city going into fantastical realms really just expanded so much this time around.

Also, all of the research that Brennan and the team went into for the sobriety roles that Pete and Sofie were having to do. It was a nice touch for that realism and a bit of a callback for Adaine in Fantasy High. I really love just how much they dive right into research for things like sobriety and it just shows how much they care about showing these realities that everyone faces.

I absolutely love how everything tied up in the end. Between decimating the hold that Gladiator was gaining on New York and banishing Null back to the deeper dreaming really encapsulated just how powerful believing in your community and believing in yourself really is. We always joke and note that Brennan somehow always is anti-capitalist and brings that into the campaigns he DMs, but I think it brings up the best point of it all. How so much stronger the common person is when they have that chance to grab their dreams and goals with the help of others like them doing the same thing than any corporate entity ever could think of doing.

It was a beautiful season and will stand in the spot with season 1 as one of my all-time favorite campaigns thus far.

Now, I am off in the world of mischief and magic with the beautiful Aabria. I can't wait to tell you all about my reaction to it.
