"Sometimes people around you won't understand your journey; they don't need to, it's not their road to travel." — Maya Mendoza

[redwiddershins]

I want to share a trio of OCs from a post-apocalyptic winter setting I have called "White Crow", which takes place in the Philippines! These three are some of my oldest OCs, so they're very dear to me <3

You have so much to look forward to.

A Los Angeles Theatre Review: ‘Luzmi’

It’s odd to say when you look forward to a theatre project’s journey but that is exactly the case with the world premiere of Luzmi by Diana Burbano, performing at The Rosenthal Theater at Inner-City Arts in Los Angeles. Continue reading A Los Angeles Theatre Review: ‘Luzmi’

Breve cronología de las traducciones del popol vuh al español

Introducción El Popol Vuh es una de las obras de origen prehispánico más importantes de América, ya que en él se detallan varios aspectos del pensamiento maya, incluyendo sus mitos originarios tanto del mundo como del propio hombre; se habla de sus dioses y de sus héroes, e incluso se llega a contar en sus páginas el inicio de los primeros pueblos y sus gobernantes. De esta manera el documento…

He recognized her after a moment, the other half of The Devil You Know — the half he hadn't gone on a date with. Vicente nodded, silently agreeing with her. The whole fundraiser had a weird vibe about it, but it was Helltown. Everything had weird vibes. That was probably the one reason he hadn't left town once he'd been old enough to move away.

"You gotta admit, though, that'd be pretty wicked... but only if they weren't killer zombies," Vic added, as if it was an after thought. "Maybe, like, vegan zombies or something. Brains aren't vegan, right?"

half drowsy from her recent lack of sleep , half blitzed out of her mind, maya's lashes seemed to bat in slow motion as she turned her head to face the other. her vision was already horrendous as it was . . . add a veil of inebriation and she might as well be blind.

" it's freaaakkyy , " maya nodded, sipping lazily from the slushee straw. " feels kinda morbid to uh . . . have a fundraiser before people have even had time to mourn ya know ?? kinda fucked. . . but uh, hey, if they're using the blood from the drive to bring 'em back to life . . . guess waiting for a funeral to happen is pointless.."

2024's Favorite Screenshots Tag ✨️💖

Okay, so I was inspired by @abbysimsfun' post and I want to add a mini description for each photo.

Photos 1 and 2: I had to start with Megan and Iseul Kang-Liao, and these cute photos of the couple are from their trip to Tomarang, using a pose pack to create a bit of a spicy-sweet moment between them. 💖

3. It's when I started playing with the Takamura family more, and had Riley and Stephanie take Nancy to the festival of snow. It's just a sweet family moment, with Nancy trying some food with her parents and enjoying the day out. 🍡

4. Nancy playing with her then baby brother Haruo. Now, Nancy is a teen and Haruo is a kid sim, but they're still close. 💛

5. My sims Luna Feldman-Chen and Chrissy Hecking looking beautiful as Heck(ing) on a restaurant date.

6. Piper Feldman-Chen (Luna and Chrissy's daughter) being romanced by her then girlfriend, now fiancée Cam. 💚

7. Malaya Isip-Mendoza and her fiancée Casey Feng-Cooper along with their nooboo Lilia, right after they'd brought her home from the hospital. 👩‍👩‍👧

8. Cam and Piper snuggling in bed in their first or second semester of university. Cam was feeling homesick, and Piper comforted her. 👩‍❤️‍👩

9. Piper dressed up in the new eggplant costume we got from the lovestruck pack. 😆🍆

10. Megan dressed up in lingerie with an apron over it to spice things up with Iseul. ❤

11 and 12. Megan and Iseul in a flashback post to their college years. Iseul was stressed about finals and Megan comforted her as they snuggled up in Megs' dorm bed. 👭🏻

13. A photo of the Takamura family: Riley, then Stephanie on the top and then Nancy and Haruo on the bottom of the photo. 🥰

14 and 15. Piper proposes to Cam in their shared rental kitchen one day. It was such a sweet moment 💍

16. Luna’s cousin Nick Feldman-Kim snuggling his daughter, June. 👨‍👧

17. Riley and Stephanie's flashback. This is the first time they woohooed, and they both felt so safe with each other. Riley had never felt the way about anyone that they had about Stephanie. 💕

18 and 19. Maya Feldman and Kaitlyn Chen's cat, Coco, getting up to glitchy shenanigans not once bit twice. 👻🤣

Thanks for the tag @hashimasims @abbysimsfun and anyone else who tags me (I forgot cause I took 800 years to do this tag, but thanks for tagging me if you did) 😅😄

I tag @matchalovertrait @pink-chevalier @silverspringsimmer @strawberriesnpopmusic @coliemoongaming @corrienteallita and anyone else who wants to do the tag. 💛

INTRODUCTION:

Elena Maya Mendoza

Norrisville High Twirl Team Captain and the Band's Keyboard Player of The Norrisville Five

Elena grew up in a Hispanic household; her parents were always working day and night, so she was always taking care of her baby brother, who's only a year younger than Elena. Elena met Harry when they were in the second grade. He taught her how to play the keyboard at a young age. Her love for twirling started when she was only in middle school. At day she would practice her twirling, and at night she would practice on her keyboard. Once she got to high school, she became the twirling captain. One day Harry came up to her and told her about the band and wanted to see if she was interested in joining. Of course she said yes.

HER FRIENDSHIP WITH THE BAND:

Harry, Elena has a crush on Harry; they both met in second grade, and he was always there when she needed him the most. If only they both knew their feelings for each other.

Darren, Elena loves Darren as a big brother; she's always there when he needs her, or he's always there when she needs him.

Skylar, Elena bestie they both became really close when they joined the band together. Skylar knows about Elena's crush on Harry, so she becomes her wingwoman.

Bucky, Elena is always mothering Bucky. Elena gets pretty protective of him; she deeply cares about him.

FACTS:

She's a Junior.

Harry taught her how to play the keyboard in second grade. 

Has a little brother one year younger than her who also goes to the same school as her.

She can also sing

Her dad is from Argentina, and her mom is from Columbia.

Don't upset her. The girl is Hispanic and has a twirling stick; she can beat anybody ass if she wants to.

Whenever she's mad, she starts cussing in Spanish.

Different Mayan Artist's rendition of

~ 𝒞𝒰𝑅𝒜𝒩𝒟𝐸𝑅𝒮𝐼𝑀𝒪 ~

In each photo, one could identify aspects of spirituality, healing, or medical aid depicted in each artists specific style. Their perspective on the different rituals, practice, and healing styles of curandera/os varies by artist, a testament to the longevity and multifaceted nature of Curanderismo.

Both pieces are titled, Comadrona, meaning, midwife.

Each of these pieces shows a ritual, cleansing or spiritual affair.

Here we have a patient and their Curandero, a relatable experience by many standards.

My short horror comic Hyssop is now available on Gumroad and itchio!

Download Hyssop on Gumroad

Download Hyssop on itch.io

Rachel becomes a live-in caregiver for an elderly woman on a rural property. Things between the woman and her daughter have been tense, and Rachel quickly realizes that this is no ordinary job.

HYSSOP is intended for mature audiences. This comic contains elements that some readers may find distressing, including: blood, gore, violence, terminal illness, and self-harm.

Please proceed mindfully. HYSSOP was originally published in Shades of Fear, a horror comics anthology created by Balustrade Press.

Shades of Fear is an anthology of subtle, psychological horror comics with a focus on emotional and evocative color. These stories will show you the horror of loss and sacrifice, of what lurks in liminal spaces, and of the unknowable that lies just beyond the veil.

The collection features stories by: Desolina Fletcher, Ashanti Fortson, Mar Julia, Molly Mendoza, Grendel Menz, Tess Eneli Reid, Joy San, Olivia Stephens, Shannon Wright, and Jade Zhang. Pin-up illustrations are by Amber Huff, and the cover is by Maya McKibbin. Shades of Fear is edited by Ignatz Award winner Ashanti Fortson (Leaf Lace, Wayward Kindred) and Joe Shuster Award winner Allison O’Toole (Wayward Sisters, Wayward Kindred).
