reminder that 30 isn’t old, it’s very normal to not accomplish everything in your 20s, and that it is never too late to learn that thing you’ve always wanted to learn. you’re always growing. that’s a good thing.

People I met for a few moments that live in my head forever.

[nyxedcreation]

one of my friends sent me this, and people thought i was CRAZY for preferring lowe’s over home depot. i’ve worked at lowe’s for a while, and let me tell you, they 100% pass the vibe check. they’re offering full time, paid 2-week sick leave for the virus, tuition payback, health insurance, and other benefits to all employees, not just full time. they offered us hazard pay and unlimited overtime to help employees make ends meet when their family members were laid off. we have a self-made, black CEO, Marvin Ellison, who started out working as a cashier making minimum wage, then went to school and got his masters degree, and worked his way up. we have community projects every year to donate labor and resources to build things like shelters, parks, and infrastructure, and we have a good time doing it. on top of that, they’re very diversity-driven. in my store alone, we have veteran, disabled, black, lesbian, gay, bi, and trans employees, and not ONCE has anyone been made fun of, treated differently, paid differently or even misgendered. and yep, we did donate 25m to minorities.

tl;dr: fuck home depot

It's 12am guys, you know what that means.. Happy Pride Month 2024!!

[nyxedcreation]

do not forget the patron saint of these weeks that we celebrate ourselves proudly and openly in the streets

her name was Marsha P Johnson, and we have her to thank for so much.

remember, the first Pride was a riot, and she was one of the brave souls who endured it to help carve the path which so many of us walk today. she helped found several activist groups regarding LGBT safety and wellbeing. and she was absolutely radiant, too.

thank you, Marsha. we remember you.

Happy Pride Month everyone! Remember 4 months ago when the CEO of this platform harassed and chased a trans woman off this website just for posting her transition timeline, then chased her to other social media platforms to continue harassing her, and threatened to call the FBI if she continued disputing the multiple dubious terminations of her blogs that did not violate tumblr's terms of service in any way? And despite tumblr staff insisting that the CEO was acting against their interests, the broad transmisogyny evident in the site's culture and moderation policy has still not been adequately addressed?

An Intro to Mother of the Apocalypse

A graphic novel for the future [it's just scripts and concept art] set in the [still in early playtest] TTRPG Tragoedia: Tales of Tragedy, a game based off the Greek Tragedies.

About our Band of Heroes:

Our story focuses on a prophesied Apocalypse and the people determined to stop it. Our titular Mother of the Apocalypse, has been prophesied to bring upon the Apocalypse when she turns 100 years old and our heroes have very little time before this day is to come.

Asterius, alongside his adoptive father Alexios, begin their journey to find a way to stop the Apocalypse without having to kill Armageddon, an innocent woman who's only crime was being born. Along the way we meet Damrina, the daughter of a healer who befriends Asterius, and Khaos, an agent of Mechanus, the deity of Time.

They clash with the monsters, men, and gods on their quest to save the world, who knowssss if they'll be able to stop it in time?

The rest is mostly spoilers for the actual story so I won't get into it too much.

Gods also play a strong role in this story of destiny and defying it. It's easier to just explain the pantheon. So anyways.

The Ataraxian Gods:

The Ataraxian Gods are all split into to categories with nine gods each. Every god is the parallel to a god in the other pantheon. We've got the Komoidic Gods, the gods of Peace and Revelry. And the Tragonic Gods, the gods of Hardship and Grief. This isn't really a "good gods vs bad gods" the Tragonic Gods are just as much a part of everyday life as the Komoidic Gods are.

AND HERE'S THE NIGHTMARE ASTERIUS FAMILY TREE THAT TOOK FOREVER TO MAKE AND STILL LOOKS BAD:

The World of Tragoedia and the Ataraxian Isles:

Tragoedia is a world where stories give things power. Jinan Al Amin, a Folklorist, came up with a description for how it all works… that will be explained when I release my game. The planet itself, has nine moons and planetary rings. As seen in this comic.

The Ataraxian Isles are based off the Aegean Isles, with the southernmost islands based more off Crete. The time period in the graphic novel is based off of around 5th century BCE, with the game being much more modern, based off of the late 1800s and early 1900s of these regions.

However in both the GN and the TTRPG there are steampunk and cyberpunk elements in the forms of magitech.

The Ataraxian Isles are a Theocracy, led by the Priestesses and Priests of Mechanus, advised by the Oracles of Phantasia.

Humans are not the only humanoid peoples inhabiting the island. As I get further into playtest of Tragoedia y’all will see more of that in my art!!

Anyways that’s all on that for now, again it’s all in very very early stages, it’ll be years before I finish MotA and Tragoedia, but I like sharing everything but my scripts and confidential stuff so y’all will see a lot of it!!
