Introducing familliar Sun and Moon!

Another witch themed thing because i am normal about witchcraft more info under the cut!

These are definetly not their real bodies... they are just using the vessel provided by their witch as the means to manipulate the world around them... they could also manifest into this world but why bother with that if your witch is already giving you cute vessels? also they dont want to freak the witch out by showing them even a fraction of their real manifestation... they are scary

Yes Moons "base" is also a straw man but he just always catches fire so the witch has to give him new vessels all the time (though the straw burns for a surprisingly long time as Moon can control it rather well... his vessels could last forever if he wanted that but he likes the special treatment he gets when the witch makes him a new one so he just pretends that the straw is bourning out)

They are literally just chilling and making their witch practice basic self care...

They cannot speak but somehow they can evoke images and concepts in your brain when "talking" to you. So you kinda just know what they want to convey

As an immigrant child, I (think I) have a pretty good idea that being able to move to a whole another country by your own volition

1. WILL make you fall down your social ladder. By like a lot

2. Usually an ENORMOUS previlege on its own. Hell, the fact that you were ABLE to do it to begin with. A lot of the times, even with a personal merit like tons of money, a coveted skill, or an anchor person already settled there, you will NOT be spared from "starting/ending up at a lower social rung than you began with" part.

3. The people who are able to do it with their own body only: either have that much raw grit or raw luck, usually both to an extent.

daisy is such a pretty nickname, you have no idea how many time i need to stop myself from making all of my OCs be called daisy

[logan-motherfucking-rose]

My favorite artists are coming to my country next year. And i can't afford any of the tickets. My parents won't give me the money (which I wouldn't even ask, bc it's ridiculously expensive and my parents are super religous) . And i'm not currently employed. My life just sucks sometimes .

sometimes I wonder

why the craziest and most toxic people tend to swarm me like fruit flies not just in real life but also on internet since I was underage as if I was their own personal therapist.

“you’re so dependable!” “It’s calming to be around you.” they say.

while trauma dumping for hours and ignoring my boundaries that I specifically told them to NOT to do at the start of every single relationship.

“you look healthy for someone with that many hereditary diseases.”

because I take so many pills every single day to the point I feel full and nauseous just from taking them(my liver is also progressively becoming damaged from it), just to be able to do most basic things like house chores. and I’m hiding my ulcers and tumors covering my body with bandages and long sleeved clothes. which are constantly dripping with blood and pus. I put great effort to look ‘normal’ and blend in with other people. there’s a good reason why I’m distancing myself from others and tell them not to touch me, because I don’t want to possibly infect them and make them suffer from incurable diseases like I do.

“you smell nice. it’s relaxing.”

that’s the smell of disinfectant I apply to my body every morning before heading outside. that’s literally what you smell when you’re hospitalized.

only if you looked a bit closer and realized how I’m always stumbling from arthritis and exhaution, cold sweats running down my neck because I’m trying to endure so much chronic pain without taking painkiller again(to prevent overdose), only if you actually cared about my well being.

only if you asked me if I’m fine at least once.

but no, you only care about what you can benefit from me, and how to make yourself feel better.

I’m ‘empathetic’ to you because I use common sense to know that I shouldn’t make other people sad just because my life is a miserable torment. I’m ‘polite’ to you because I don’t want to be a burden to anyone.

yet you decide to see only what you want to see, expect me to say what you want to hear, act like you know anything about me.

Okey a lot of fucking disgusting stuff are happening all around the world. The genocide of palestinians, the new anti queer law in russia, the congo situation and god knows how many other fucking disgusting inhumane shit is happening in so many places right now.

LISTEN i know that even for people like me who arent victims of any of these situations everything can be so overwhelming right now, and that we may feel hopless and we just dont wanna do anything anymore because everything seems pointless.

BUT FOR THE LOVE OF WHATEVER YOU BELIVE DO NOT BACK THE FUCK DOWN!

Like me, so many other people of the world (even if we belong to a "minority" and for that suffer daily discrimination) we are lucky enought to be ALLOWED to exist because for fucking coincidence we live in places where our goverments or/and the international powers allow us to just fucking be alive.

But there are so many people who the only thing tthey did was being born and for that the goverments decide that they should not exist.

If you were born in palestina to Israel and most of the world you arent fucking allowed to be alive.

If you are queer and were born in russia your fucking goverment says that you are not allowed to be alive.

If you are black in congo you are not allowed to be alive.

If you are native, for most of the goverments in the america continent you are not allowed to be alive.

And if you are a person with vulva/ you are a woman you are not allowed to be alive in most of the fucking world.

And so, so, so many more examples could be add because in this fucking sick world just being ALLOWED to be alive is a privilege.

So PLEASE I BEG YOU, IF YOU ARE IN A POSITION WERE YOUR MERE EXISTENCE IS ALLOWED (even for the dislike of some people) PLEASE, EVEN IF IT HURTS JUST RAGE, SPEAK THE FUCK UP! DONT BE QUIET!

If there are ambassadors of Israel in your country or/and from any other country that prohibits the existence of people, go and RAGE! GO AND DEMAND A CHANGE!.

If YOUR COUNTRY is in ANY way supporting the fact that some groups have the power to decide whether or not some people should be allowed to exist GO AND SCREAM AND SHOUT AND FUKING RAGE.

We have the previlege of being allowed to exist, is our human obligation to speak and shout for those who doesnt have that privilege and arent heared.

nico has pretty previlege btw, and he doesnt know it. fair skin, dark angelic eyes and hair as black as the night? oh it's the dream, but boy doesnt know he's effortlessly pretty, he just wonders why some people stutter and blush when he stares three seconds too long at them when he speaks

[mx-post-stuffs]

I used to think I should let my sister abuse me cuz I am assigned male at birth and that meant I'm previleged even if im a trans woman. While she's cis woman and south korea is very sexist country. Turns out, that's not how things worked and frankly, being shut in and scared of people and family, but yet able to live under the roof not starving wasn't really a previlege.

Also my parents did nothing but let her be bully even to them because "that's how she is, you should just accept that."

[kedicatt]

WHAT WOULD NAMARI BE?? :33

Thank you for asking!

In the universe where all the dogboy Laios edits that I make take place, she would be her usual self, a dwarf! Only Laios (and possibly Falin) can get the extra fluffy previleges.

But well, if I had to assign every character some animal species, Namari would probably be a red panda! Because she's red-haired, short-legged and will try to look threatening.

At the second Cosmic Moonrise became Noon- You took his long jester hat previleges away and now he has short jester hat.. hsjddhdhsh

Cosmic Moonrise really gives off Comfort Characters vibes to me- Qwille help /silly shdjdhdh

Yesss Cosmic Moonrise is so very very soft, a real comfort character for me. He's still mischievous and sharp but he is also quite melancholy. Ahhh I love him <3

untuk kamu yang sebagian kecil, atau bahkan sebagian besar gajinya habis untuk membiayai hidup orang tua, semoga surga jadi balasan terbaik untukmu.

ada perspektif lain yang menarik mengenai privelege dalam mengelola keuangan.

kebanyakan orang beranggapan kalo punya ortu yang kaya sehingga mampu menanggung biaya hidup anaknya sampe dewasa, dan dapat memenuhi kehidupan masa tuanya sendiri,

itu adalah privilege keuangan bagi si anak.

dengan begitu si anak dapat mengelola gaji untuk memenuhi kebutuhan & keinginan dirinya sendiri tanpa harus menyisakan sebagian (besar) gajinya untuk membiayai hidup orang tuanya.

apakah perspektif ini benar? belum tentu.

dalam perspektif lain, justru mereka yang masih harus membiayai hidup orang tua & keluarganya adalah orang-orang pilihan yang diberikan privelege oleh Allah. karena bisa jadi dengan cara tersebut keberkahan datang dan sebagai perantara terbukanya pintu surga.

analoginya begini, jika keluarga kita serba berkecukupan. belum tentu kita sebagai anak berpikir untuk menyisakan sebagian besar gaji untuk orang tua. artinya kita masih harus effort lebih mencari jalan lain masuk surga dan istiqomah di jalan tersebut.

beda kondisi jika orang tua masih membutuhkan, tanpa harus mencari jalan

surga jauh-jauh, dia sudah dipaksa oleh keadaan untuk membiayai hidup keluarganya. karena mau tidak mau dia harus membantu bahkan jika itu terpaksa membuat hidupnya jadi lebih irit, bersabar di atas keterbatasan dan ga leluasa memenuhi keinginan pribadi.

berat memang. tapi surga jadi balasan.

keren kan?

tentu bukan hal yang mudah, di saat temen yang lain ngajak pergi liburan, kulineran, bisa belanja ini itu, kita lagi lagi cuma bisa menahan diri dan bersabar karena ada hidup keluarga yang harus ditanggung. harus lebih sabar, harus lebih kuat.

bayangin,

sholat berantakan.

ngaji ga pernah.

dakwah apalagi.

tapi kita dibukain jalan untuk berbakti dengan orang terdekat. bukankah sedekah ke orang terdekat termasuk orang tua adalah sedekah terbaik? bukannya ini privelege akhirat kita?

kalo mau, Allah bisa saja angkat masalahmu. tanpa nanti, tanpa tapi.

tapi bukankah dengan begini kita jadi hamba yang lebih bersyukur, lebih kuat. Satu hal yang harus disyukuri, kita masih bisa sedikit berguna untuk orang tua kita, punya kesempatan mendapat ridho mereka sebagai anak yang berbakti.

semoga Allah mudahkan kita untuk bersabar dan ikhlas. dan semoga kita bisa nikmatin previlege ini di akhirat kelak sebagai perantara ke surga :)

Jebakan kemudahan dan kelapangan!

"Kok dia hidupnya enak ya? Pantes aja bisa punya ini itu, dapat previlege ini itu, dapat achievement ini itu, padahal dianya begini begitu"

Pernah merasa hidup penuh kemudahan, padahal jarang beribadah? Atau mungkin, melihat orang lain yang tak henti-hentinya berbuat salah tapi tetap diberi kemewahan dan kekuasaan? Bisa jadi, itu bukanlah tanda keberuntungan atau kemuliaan—melainkan istidraj.

Istidraj itu kenikmatan yang Allah berikan kepada orang yang sering lalai beribadah dan malah berkubang dalam maksiat.

Tapi hati-hati, karena istidraj sebenarnya adalah ujian yang halus dari Allah, yang bisa menjerumuskan seseorang dalam kelalaian hingga lupa pada Sang Pencipta.

Istidraj sering muncul dalam bentuk kenikmatan dunia—harta, kesehatan, kekuasaan, bahkan kedudukan. Seseorang bisa saja merasa bahwa rezeki yang datang adalah tanda kemuliaan dari Allah, padahal justru bisa jadi Allah tengah menunjukkan murka-Nya.

Bahaya dari istidraj ini adalah membuat seseorang terlena, makin jauh dari tobat, dan merasa nyaman dalam kenikmatannya. Sampai akhirnya, ketika saatnya tiba, Allah mencabut semua kesenangan itu, meninggalkan penyesalan yang sudah terlambat.

Agar tidak terjebak dalam jebakan istidraj ini, kita bisa mulai dengan introspeksi diri, meningkatkan takwa, dan menafkahkan sebagian harta untuk yang membutuhkan.

Dengan begitu, kita senantiasa ingat bahwa rezeki bukan sekadar kenikmatan, melainkan amanah yang harus dipertanggungjawabkan.

I find myself deeply frustrated by people who assign Daenerys Targaryen’s titles to Jon Snow.

No, Jon is not the father of dragons, this isn’t a group project. Daenerys bled for her dragons, she walked into that pyre fully prepared to die. Jon Snow stumbled upon a direwolf, he is handed a Valyrian steel sword, he stumbles upon Dragonglass.

Everything Daenerys has, she has earned with her blood, her sweat and her tears. I truly wish people would stop using her achievements to prop up their faves. Since the Dragonbane died, her family had been trying to bring back dragons.

All this to say, blood is not enough. Jon being Rhaegar’s son means less than nothing in the context of hatching dragons.

Dany is the only person who will even be the mother of dragons. She's the one who gave birth to the dragons and even if Rhaegal and Viserion one day find different riders to bond ( because Dany can't become their rider; she's already Drogon's) that wont eliminate the special bond they all share with their mother; Dany. Their potential riders will be like the countless dragonriders from the past who shared a bond with the dragon they rode, meanwhile Dany will be the only person in history who revived the dragon species. That will always be hers and hers alone.

With that being said, I don't like belittling a character in order to elevate another (and frankly Dany doesn't need it, she's special on her own account). Jon Snow didn't stumbled upon the direwolves, he found them and convinced his father that his siblings were meant to have them, his actions lead to the greatest treasure the Stark siblings have; to a bond that helped them unlock their magical powers. He's the one who found the sixth pup (despite the fact that Ghost is the silent one so possibly their bond was strong even before their meeting?) and claimed it for himself.

Furthermore, if you bothered to read Jon's chapters you would know that he wasn't given Longclaw just because. Jeor Mormont gave it to him because Jon bravely saved his life from a wight, even burning his hand in the process. Finally, it was Ghost who led him to the dragonglass. It's not something that was discovered by chance, Ghost - who shares Jon's soul- wanted to led him there. It's laughable to pretend that out of all the previleged noble character, the one who has grown with the stain of bastard, gets handled things.

Fuck anyone who belittles Dany's accomplishments. But also fuck anyone who belittles Jon's ones.
