Shading practice with Chunda and Barsaat. For those unaware, Barsaat is one of the main characters from the high fantasy romance novel I’m writing. Chunda is Barsaat’s rival (not in love, just in life lol) #myart #orcs #elves

Hi I’m Keke, a fantasy writer and artist! I mostly draw my characters and scenes from my books.

Currently working on my high fantasy romance, The Curse of the Yaksha (working title) which explores intercultural + interfaith marriages, community, and ofc love. It also has giant bugs and curses

And here's the radical part- *that's fine*. You need your fruits and veggies but it's fine to eat comfort food. It's just a bit rich for a dude to burst into the down-home cooking kitchen and yell that everyone there needs to eat vegan.

"Coziness" can take a general form, where deeper themes are kept up on a high shelf away from the narrative (if present)- but also it can take a specific form as a narrative that assures you your priors are all validated and correct.

Radfems do not care about interiority, just like cis men. They call themselves gender abolitionists while only understanding sex as legitimizing of gender. Ask any radfem their views of intersex people and we are only understood as "mutations" rather than complex human beings

agreed. also to add SAsian men depicted as predators and asian men as a whole as e-masculated or an 'other'. If you're a woman you're seen as less than but if you're a non-white man it's almost 'threatening' for white men (sexism/masculinity yada)...so guess whats targeted and hyperfocused on.

Im not making a lord of gentle swords book you will find the story as a point and click game about a geologist looking at the layers of a traumatized earth and trying to figure out why one layer is especially large and repetitive. Also you fall in love with an archeologist

reminds me of the whole feminism subreddit with their massively upvoted post on why the hijab was oppressive therefore they shoud just completely ban it...surprise a lot of the people commenting were white americans with no connection to islam...

There are white radfems pretending to be Arab women "critical of islam" the same way random white people online pretend to be south Asians

the proper education and licenses!
Irresponsible breeders are the main reason for strays! And mixing various breeds can have detremental health effects as well, and so many of them only pop up later in life too.

Controlled outings can be great if your cat is comfortable, but it does not need to feel the wind caress its mane to be happy.
Leashtrain them. Play with them. And ffs stop using their wild and independent ancestors as an excuse to be lazy. They are domesticated PETS. They *need* you.

No, your domesticated cat doesn't crave the feeling of freedom. Cats are territorial & leaving their territory stresses them out.
Your cat wants to escape for the same reason it wants to chew on wires: it doesn't know better.
It is your responsibility to ensure that it doesn't do that.
