So, the Universe decided that another curve ball would be appropriate on top of everything else that's going so freaking well!

I was leaving for work today when I almost stepped on a pigeon that clearly couldn't fly. He was dragging his wing and was obviously in pain, but the thing is we only have one bird rehab center in our entire city (perhaps even the country) and they absolutely don't take in sick pigeons. I contacted them anyway, hoping against hope, but of course they said no... Because why would anything go right and be simple?

However they gave me a list of vet clinics that might take in the bird (not for free obviously) and one of them was even open on a Sunday.

Cue a half-hour desperate walking back and forth, doing my best to just walk away and let someone else deal with this as I have more than enough on my plate... Guess how successful I was!

The pigeon is now called Ozzy (Black Sabbath work shirt so yeah), he's in a vet clinic being taken care of (broken ribs) and in a couple of days - if he survives the stress - I'll most likely take him home to get him fully better before I release him...

How's your day going?

Potato's Surgery Fund! 💙🐾

Hi guys! As you know I don't have a Ko-fi/Patreon, because getting to share what I make and interact with all of you is the best reward of all (and I'm fortunate enough to be in the position to do that). But after a very long night at the emergency vet, we found out my little Potato is going to need emergency surgery and it's going to cost $10,000. 😵‍💫

If anyone is in a position to donate or share this post, my hubby and I would really appreciate it! As a thank you, everyone who donates will get a sneak peek at the first ~10k words of To Whom it May Concern, and donations of $100 or more may request a short fic written just for you! 💝 (no nsfw, gen/zelink/midlink only)

Thank you for reading and reblogging! 💞

Of the two of them, Binghe is the real monsterfucker. Bros married to an Eldritch creature that so desperately wanted to make him happy that he swore against the god of this world(PIDW), died, and then took over some random body. Like, no offense, but I think the creature ACTUALLY made for this world is a step below "literally from another world and in a body not my own" monster. So shout-out to my boy LBH for being more of a monsterfucker than SQQ

Vachete Suomi AU. Vesuri ja Vaski asuvat suuressa kylässä jossain sisämaassa kaukana suurista kaupungeista kuten Turusta. Kirkonkylän pappi, Vesuri, yrittää parhaansa mukaan vakuuttaa kyläläisiä kasvattamaan perunaa, koska se on satoisa ja ravitseva kasvi mutta kyläläiset eivät tahdo luopua nauriista. Vaski on kartanonvoudin poika ja yrittää pitää suhteita yllä kyläläisiin, että he olisivat suostuvaisia maksamaan veroja kuninkaalle eivätkä hyökkäisi hänen isänsä kimppuun.

Loose translation:

Finnish Vaschete AU.

Vesuri (a type of pruning knife/billhook) and Vaski (brass/copper/bronze) live in a big village somewhere inland, far away from the country's populous cities like Turku (Finland's oldest city and former capital located in the southwestern coast). The village priest, Vesuri, is trying his best to persuade the villagers to start farming potato, a high-yielding and nourishing crop, but people are reluctant to give up their turnips (one of Finland's most important staple foods up until 1800's when potato finally took over). Vaski is the son of a local lord of the manor (or maybe you'd call it bailiff? Or even jarl?) and is doing his best to get along with the villagers so that they would continue paying their taxes to the king and wouldn't turn against his dad.

You know, what I think bothers me the most about media depictions of Christianity is how everyone thinks good actions are what get you into Heaven. From modern Simpsons episodes to Hazbin Hotel, there's this weird de-Jesusifying of Christianity where you just have to be a good person who didn't do anything bad.

In reality, you don't "earn" your way to Heaven by doing good things. Ephesians 2:8-9 is pretty clear about it; "For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast."

There's a lot of minutae about how having faith and genuinely following Christ will change your behavior and faith without works is dead, yadda yadda, but you literally cannot go to Heaven EXCEPT through belief in Jesus. It's just weird when things talking about Christianity specifically get that very basic thing wrong.
