A little salute to the L's in #lgbtqia :BlahajWavingPrideFlag:

Considering how conservative (small c) and narrow minded many parts of Britain can be, particularly rural areas, when I'm feeling isolated I remind myself of my good fortune in at least living in Wales and in particular, in Llangollen

There's a difference between transitory party political tides and enduring culture. In all likelihood the Welsh, faced with betrayal by a Labour Party that chases right wing nationalism rather than make any effort to lead leftwards, will elect Far Right councillors from Reform at the upcoming local elections. What is really happening is that the Left has been betrayed by Labour in everything from support for Israel, pandering to TERFs, abandoning support for the sick and disabled, continuation of many past Tory policies and sucking up to Trump, while the Right has radicalised further, is ever more anti-immigrant and prefers real fascists to wannabe fascists. So the left won't vote and the right will vote Fascist. Even in Wales

But imho, culturally and on a personal level, despite often holding just as obnoxious views regarding outsiders and the othered, the Welsh take a less arrogant approach to their bigotry. They are more philosophical than the English and having a history of knowing what arseholes the English can be, tend not to follow them too far down that path. And they are more aware that life is strange, people are strange, everyone's their own kind of character and that in the end.. that's a good thing. And if it's not, it's best to live with it anyway

But rural areas, rural Wales being no exception, are often even more conservative, so Llan is all the more exceptional for being quite tolerant and diverse in its little way

I am particularly proud that one of our main tourist attractions, aside from the castle, the steam railway, and the totally mind-blowing natural beauty, is a local story of sapphic love that survived scandal, endured and then thrived, once the two Irish Ponsonby 'sisters' found refuge here in Llan, becoming celebrities in their own right

Their home, which began life as a large stone cottage, took on a life of its own in their lifetime in the early 19th century and flourished as an architecturaly bizarre collection of gothic and mock Tudor addons

And now..it's one of the most eye-catching attractions in town. In this part of Wales even. Which would not have happened had pettiness been allowed to trounce love. Plenty of towns around that chose that path too, of course. No one knows them. Neither do I

Have a sweet evening all..from a #transfem #lesbian that will thrive out of love despite them all, because it matters 💕

Here's some pics of their home that I took a couple of hours ago 😘

A mock Tudor facade on a large rectangular stone cottage, plastered with a patchwork of wood carvings from diverse sources, in everything from medieval to baroque and Jacobean to folk styles, rectangular lead paned windows. 3 doorways within oak carved porchways. The building is set before a small tidy garden of manicured low hedges surrounding beds of flowers, currently brightly coloured tulips
The same home seen from a little further off, across a lawn with yet another mock feature..a stone circle. Tall conifer trees and topiaried hedges around. Distant hill with castle ruins in top behind all
A nearby water tower, within the house's grounds, that received the same eclectic wood carved treatment. Seen through trees of a light woodland over low manicured and shaped privet hedges

Come listen to another cozy story reading~ :shiba_excited:
This time, it's a short lore primer for anyone playing or planning to play Oblivion that's vital to understanding the who, what, and why of the central story

Succubard Gently Reads [The Amulet of Kings]

:zerotwo_learn: It's an unfortunately short video this time, but I hope this helps anyone confused about what's going on. The Elder Scrolls has a lot of lore that affects the stories that play out in the games, but it can be hard to track it down in an easy-to-understand form. The books tend to be all over the place, picked up out of order, or, as is the case for a lot of us, just something we don't really engage with while we're playing :bugcat_nod:

(oh, and tell me what you think of the thumbnail text)

If you like it and/or want to help me survive and keep doing what I do, ko-fi monthlies help me buy food for me and my cats and I appreciate every one a ton :frog_blush:

I also do live readings a few times a week over on Twitch (alongside Youtube) if that's more your thing :shiba_excited:

A vtuber with glasses, black hair tied in two two low buns, and a dark grey and black outfit with blue accents, including blue roses on her upper arms and a blue cravat. She stands within a cozy library lit by a fire in the fireplace, bookshelves crammed with books and a large window spanning from the floor to nearly the ceiling. She looks down at a book floating in front of her, whisps of magic supporting it. Text in the left half of frame reads "The Amulet of Kings"

Come listen to another cozy story reading :charmander_yay: This time, we're learning about the Blades, the organisation initially tasked with the Cyradilic emperor's protection, from body-guards to continent-wide information gathering :frog_blush:

Succubard Gently Reads: [Rise and Fall of the Blades]
youtube.com/watch?v=y4sDEWz2RX

If you've played *any* major Elder Scrolls game, you're going to be at least tangentially aware of the organisation, even if you're not aware of the history or the totality of their activities :zerotwo_learn: In Morrowind, you're even a Blades agent yourself, if memory serves :blob_nod:

Hopefully, this book gets people interested in looking into the Blades in more detail :eevee_joy:

Have been off of Mastodon for a bit.

Life's been going well. I'm rebounding from breakups better, I'm liking how my body is developing more-and-more, am growing more comfortable than ever as a sexual being, and recently hit 20 months of #HRT . I also have backups in case shit truly hits the fan.

I'm prepared to protest and raise hell when I can do so safely and #transition peacefully no matter what. Give me E or give me death!

I'm also fully-prepared to seek asylum if any country opens it for #trans peeps like me.

I've also determined that surgeries are in my future, either in this country or wherever I end up seeking asylum in (which country opens the border first).

Hi Friendlings 💕. I'm a transfem living in a rural Welsh town who takes long walks in the hills to escape brain worms and bigots, and there I meet many fine furry, woolly, feathery and imaginary friends. Will regularly provide photographic evidence of all but the last. I am neurodivergent, AuDHD. Critters tend to love me

I am here in search of the weird and the wonderful, misfits, queer folk and fairies

I have no time for debate with those who disrespect any of the above. I am selective about who I follow and am not here to build a following for the sake of numbers. Don't take absence of a follow-back as a judgment. I mean, it will be, but why worry about it?

Generally I prefer to share joy when able, sadness when real, strength when needed, vulnerability whenever and love when felt, to any of the usual social media reactionary BS

Periodically I am inexplicably absent

Love my #LGBTQIA+ siblings 😘
