compilation of 4 images. | IMG 1: book cover picturing a young woman up close, only torso and the bottom half of her face are visible. her neck is extended as much as possible. her lips partially open, gasping for air. a red, ghostly hand hangs over her neck in a menacing gesture that wants to grab and choke her. hair is in motion and floating. the text says: "A. K. VENRINN - THE ROOTS THAT BIND US - THE ELDERTREES TRILOGY" | IMG 2: A comic page with 4 horizontal panels. The patrons voted to "go with the flow". A muscular half-elven woman Roz and a lean tiefling woman Lav are both pushed out of a fancy establishment. "I lost my first gig because of you!", Roz yells. Unbothered, Lav stretches her arms. "Relax, this job was probably lame anyway. I'll get us a real deal from better people, no sweat." With a door slam, we enter a tavern where a brawl is currently happening which undermines the message that Lav is trying to send by taking Roz to "better people". While Lav looks very proud of herself, Roz is startled by the unexpected violence. Upset, Roz stares at Lav. "Why, you little..." she mutters through her teeth with a shadow over her face, as we see rage slowly rising inside her. The next two choices say patrons can choose: "Trust the process" or "Do not, in fact, trust at all". | IMG 3: a mockup of a kickstarter page graphics for a tabletop game Kinfire Council. it shows a phone floating in front of an orange background, with some slides positioned nearby and showing other elements of the crowdfunding page's graphic design. | IMG 4: a poster illustration of a middle aged elegantly dressed fish-species guy, raging and in the middle of swinging his knife and using blood magic. the title says "from Ghostpunk Nokturn - KIERAT" in a fancy font that seems to be slashed through. the smaller notes at the bottom credit the participators of Actual Play that Kierat is from, on a podcast called podsłuchane.pl

I need a smooth talking negotiator to persuade @planesoffate.bsky.social and @nightwonderer.bsky.social to accept pumpkins instead of cabbages between now and Dec 1st because pumpkins are easier to come by at this time of year. In return I can find all the levers you desire! 🥰

100%! We will succeed! - I'm glad it helps - it always helps me to hear others have experienced the same thing as well, even though it's awful any of us have to walk through hell, you're right if we can help each other walk proudly through it together then that's a win xxxx

The arrogance, ignorance, and prejudice in the mind of someone like that is a yarn ball that would take too many spoons to begin to unpick 😩

He clearly went to the same medical school as the GP that told me 'most illnesses are all in a woman's head and can be fixed with antidepressants' 🙄

ikr? Lucky just a locum with no sway over me/ my treatment but still. Reported him. Imagine if he's the first person someone sees on their healing journey? Assholes like him are the reason diagnosis takes years when it should take days/weeks.

PennyBlake @pennyblake.bsky.social · 19h

ikr? Lucky he's not my GP he was just a newbie standing in. I made a complaint and it's been 'acknowledged' by the surgery. Lucky he has no power over me and my condition but imagine getting him as your first port of call for a potential diagnosis?🤬Not the first AMAB GP to be a prick tho sadly -smh.

My fave from a new GP a few weeks ago "Autoimmune disorders aren't real, they're just some female doctors' latest fad" 😨

This happened to a lot of our town when we lived in Oxfordshire in early 2000s. Gov chose to 'strategically' allow small villages and towns to flood to protect London. Deforestation and lack of maintenance by big companies caused the floods and ordinary folks bore the brunt of it all 💔

Cursed suggests something temporary that has the possibility of being reversed. Damned has a a more final/ end-game vibe to it xx
