The Morrigan ✨

✨In shadows deep, the Morrigan's embrace,

Dark goddess, veiled in mystery and grace.

Raven's wings, a cloak of night,

Weaving fate, a mystical sight.✨

✨Battles fierce, a warrior's guide,

In the swirling mist, she doth reside.

Threefold aspect, a trinity divine,

Morrigan's essence, in every line.✨

✨Whispers of magic, cauldron's brew,

Under moonlit skies, her power grew.

Anoint the earth with reverence and fear,

Dark goddess, Morrigan, always near.✨

is it a hot take to say i think i should be allowed to find myself ugly. like come on, i can think i'm ugly without resorting to unhealthy behaviors, i contain ✨ multitudes ✨. and also let me just think myself ugly without being like "well if you wore makeup...". like i'm not ashamed of my (whether real or perceived) ugliness i just think it's there. no moral value or imperative attached. why is that so hard to understand

#i am a cis woman for context #i literally just don't think my face is aesthetically pleasing. why am i not allowed to think that #ANYWAYS we will be back to our regularly scheduled glass chewing later i promiseeeee #doodoo.txt #not star wars #cw body image #<- idk?

associating the gold with kinzo's occultism...thinking thoughts here. thoughts that correlate to some of the more obvious darker political associations of mid 20th century western aesthetics married with certain strains of occult practice and then also considering the intersection of gold with all of these things.

#umineko liveblog #ep1 reread #only thing keeping me from saying 'oh it's nazi gold' is that there's no evidence kinzo ever dealt with the nazis #a lot of his fortune is tied in up in profiteering off the korean war via deals with occupying america #like the imagery and aesthetics are there but not the right place or time so.#i mean fascist gold is fascist gold so it could just be american gold obtained through warcrimes and little would change #but then i'm thrown again by kinzo's specific focus on european names. krauss/eva/rudolf/rosa all very germanic names #issued to children who would have been born in the tail end of ww2 #and the fact that ultimately the beatrice portrait is a painting of a white woman with a european name #and that all feels deliberate but i don't know how to reconcile the contradiction here into anything cohesive #i have a bunch of jumbled fascism shaped puzzle pieces but i can't quite fit them together

[Marauder Era/HPHM] Hermia “Mia” Flume Moodboard

Tagging @magicallymalted and @dat-silvers-girl so as to introduce this girl properly! 💗

“Could dress up to get love, But guess what? I'm never gonna be that girl Who's living in a Barbie world... Could wake up, and make up, and play dumb, Pretending that I need a boy Who's gonna treat me like a toy... I know the other girls wanna wear expensive things, Like diamond rings, But I don't wanna be the puppet that you're playing On a string... This queen don't need a king.”

~“Sit Still, Look Pretty” by Daya

x~x~x~x

The owner of Honeydukes, Ambrosius Flume, is a very sweet man with a rather appropriate talent for manufacturing unique magical sweets. He also has three daughters, all of whom have a certain level of sweetness to them. The youngest, Callisto “Callie” Flume, had men of all stripes eating out of her hand, while the eldest, Hestia “Tia” Flume, earned the affection of the well-respected Head of the Goblin Liaison Office, Dirk Cresswell, and now the pair are happily married with two children. Ambrosius’s middle child -- who was also, in most people’s view, his favorite daughter -- is more akin to a bitter dark chocolate, compared to her soft-spoken, sensitive older sister and her flighty, flirty younger sister.

Hermia -- or “Mia” as she’s almost exclusively called -- is a witty, relentless young firebrand whose love for her family and hard work ethic dwarfs anything else, including her strong intellectual curiosity and her high aspirations. Mia was both the most ambitious and industrious of her siblings at school, doing her Head of House Pomona Sprout very proud by relentlessly putting 120% of herself into absolutely everything she did. She excelled at the Dueling Club, sang proficiently with the Frog Choir, and earned ten OWLs and NEWTs with nothing but her own sweat and tears. As a girl, Mia was determined to never do anything half-assed -- and this eventually included staying to work at her father’s shop as a chocolatier and pastry baker, even as Callie pursued a career with the Wizarding Wireless Network and Tia settled down into life as a stay-at-home mother.

Mia’s primary passion is integrating magic and potioneering into the sweets she creates, so as to hopefully heal people just as much as feed them. Mia also -- during the Second Wizarding War -- uses her magical treats to smuggle in secret messages from the outside to Dumbledore’s Army, which her twelve-year-old nephew has aligned himself with, some of which came from Callie, who works as a correspondent for the underground anti-Death-Eater radio show Potterwatch. Mia also is instrumental in helping keep the many people kept in safehouses during the Second Wizarding War fed and in good health, even while staying in hiding. One of these such people who delivers her magical baked goods to different safehouses, including his own, is Jacob Cromwell, who ironically enough actually attended school at the same time Mia did. (Not that that people-dumb idiot remembered this fact, until Mia bluntly reminded him of it.)

#hphm #hogwarts mystery #hermia flume #aesthetic #moodboard #jacob cromwell #YES!#finally got this idea out of my head #but yeah um...#I'm really kind of looking forward to doing more with this woman and jacob c #look out for some written material with these two interacting in the future 👀#but yeah this girl was born in 1964 #so she was in the same year as gilderoy lockhart jacob cromwell duncan ashe and olivia green!#unlike those last three though she actually was able to graduate on time :(#this also makes her a little younger than the marauders but older than any hphm mc's #she's in her early 30's when the second wizarding war starts

god no more taylor swift hot takes no more take downs no more arguing that she's the greatest songwriter to ever exist or is just completely mediocre. there's no artists that cause this much shit on tumblr from a simple album release and it's just so annoyyyyyying guys shut up!

#i understand and agree with some of the criticisms!!!#like this woman is not a gay icon as hard as she tries #and sometimes her writing and metaphors are really simple and get praised as literary genius #but this woman is a genuinely strong songwriter #not every songwriter is trying to do the same thing #they aren't all writing from the same perspectives #or aesthetics or backgrounds or goal and that is FINE. like u guys are really just doing stan wars #when in reality a lot of musicians who do different shit have respect for one another #and the genuine criticisms of white mediocrity just devolve into these weird petty fixations on artists that you don't like #like with harry styles like genuinely we can talk about how gay men of colour are ignored for breaking gender norms #but at some point you realize that so many of the people who keep! bringing! this! up! are not acting in good faith #and just genuinely hated harry styles

Comics Review: 'Talli: Daughter of the Moon' #1

Talli: Daughter of the Moon #1 by Sourya, Francois Vigneault

action

adventure

fantasy

medieval fantasy

mythology

summoner

swords and sorcery

violence

My Rating: 5 of 5 stars

The last of anything ancient and feared often begets the first of something new and revered.

They say the summoners, daughters of deities long past, were all hunted and slain. They say the beasts they commanded, and the remnant forests within which they communed, have gone astray. And they say the few remaining believers of these summoners and their ancestral deities, they say these disciples of a dying religion are naught but heretics whom the ruling authorities possess every right to stab, to bleed, and to hang.

TALLI: DAUGHTER OF THE MOON v1 is a tightly-wound fantasy graphic novel packed with rusty swords, ornery archers, underground sects of forbidden faiths, doting fathers, greedy innkeepers, and one irascible princess who may be the key to unlocking a war between fabled beasts (chimeras) and human folk — the second in written memory.

Lady Talli is the last known summoner: In her blood rests the mythic ability to call forth giant, destructive creatures, among other cool skills. Too bad she's still a teenager and has no idea how to control her power. She's yet to truly come of age, but circumstances being what they are, she must flee her home, seek safety among strangers, and pledge to protect herself against an array of forthcoming danger.

But it's not all bad. Things could be worse. The obsessive Lord Ulric and his troops have swarmed the countryside, hunting for the girl. And Lord Ulric's top soldier, Captain Nina of the Special Brigade, is an ace tracker and is the best in the land with a bow and arrow.

In just one volume, TALLI v1 offers a splendid mix of sword fighting, castle intrigue, and fantastical lore. Lady Talli isn't particularly well-informed about her bloodline, but kind and curious strangers fill in the gaps for her (and the reader). Can she trust the annoying old merchant, Pavel, who seems to know more about rare jewels and ancient artifacts than a street vendor probably should? Can Talli trust the sleepy-eyed young man, Lélo, who calls Pavel his grandfather, despite Lélo's peculiar habit for sleeping during the day and never when the sun goes down? Talli is blessed/cursed as a summoner, but what's the deal with Lélo?

The tale of Lady Talli has only just begun, but readers already know the young woman must contest with a history she does not know, a future others dread may come to pass, and a present she claims, fearlessly, she will meet head-on.

The book's author, Sourya, has produced a delicious meld of consequential compositional aesthetics from European comics, on one hand, and humor and narrative design elements from Japanese comics on the other. Of the former, the comic book's environmental design includes roving and wide-angle views of old brick bridges, pastoral panoramas of castles among fields, as well as strong overhead and aerial shots of fight scenes in the middle of a rainstorm. Of the latter, readers encounter lush, Ghibli-styled food spreads, inimitable character expressions marking fear or surprise, as well as kinetic action sequences that gleefully marry purposeful panel arrangement with minimal dialogue. The level of detail afforded the book's stone streets, dirt roads, sunset skies, tiled roofs, tufted hills, dark alleyways, and more speak of an artist who loves their work.

TALLI v1 artfully balances humor, adventure, and the wicked uncertainties of ancient magecraft. The comic's emphasis on Talli as an ambitious young woman with a flawed sense of bravery is an exquisite model for future narrative surprises. Talli flees her home because her life is threatened, but in doing so, she sees wildflowers for the first time and must learn to speak with other classes of people to negotiate fair fares. The young woman amazes as often as she frustrates, as expected of the last daughter of the moon.

another bit of odd reporting in an otherwise average article, the CBC explicitly frames the most outspoken pro-war pro-occupation MP in the current neutral government as a ‘spokesperson for his [the Jewish] community’ while neglecting to frame the most outspoken pro-ceasefire MP as just that, an MP.

Less obvious than the usual lopsided reporting, the implication is that Housefather’s continuous, vocal, unhinged support for the found-by-the-international-court-to-be-in-violation-of-genocide-prevention actions of the Occupation Forces a) is an intrinsic part of his ethnic background, b) is a universal belief among Jewish people in Canada, c) is somehow different from the solidarity shown between Muslim/Arab Canadians like Zahid and majority Muslim/Arab Palestine. Why is she not The Voice of the Arab Community while he is The Voice of the Jewish Community? Obviously it’s stupid to dumb down a diverse group of people spread across the country into one singular opinion. Which begs the question. Why do it. ‘Emerged as a voice’ my ass. This means that he pretty much has no significance until Canada’s studiously milquetoast Liberals took the same tack they’ve taken as for every other issue that’s ever crossed their place and he decided he was going to become the Mr Ethnic Cleansing of his caucus

Sure, use that phrasing when talking about the government’s response to antisemitic threats/attacks in Montreal and Toronto. Those are things that are happening in Canada to people who live here. Putting that frame on this story in this place paints Housefather as pro-genocide by reason of inherent ethnocultural disposition, not by reason of dumb fucking pea brain. It’s a dissonant choice and whatever the reason it comes off as Bad to say that advocating against genocide prevention is somehowwwwww tied to your ethnicity

#kelsey rambles #it’s a zimonjic article and this guy has written some Real Choices over the course of the war so probably the intention #was to imply that the ICJ is prejudiced. but to anyone who can read all it says is ‘yeah this pro-genocide walking corpse is representative #more on the Liberals though it just melts my brain that they’ve got Housefather (supports the far right Israeli government) and some fuckin #hindutva guy who supported a film ban a few years ago because the woman who directed it was ‘insufficiently respectful’ or whatever #the liberals have won the last 2 elections by poaching NDP voters and putting on progressive makeup #but within their ranks are as many far right extremists as you’d ever hope to find #they’re not a party. they have no platform no beliefs no ideology. their ideology is that they want to win the next election.#conservatives: they’re awful. the country would be far worse had they won the last two elections.#however they stand for being awful and they’re committed wholeheartedly to being awful and they won’t flip flop or break #ranks on being awful. liberals on the other hand. landlord coalition of people who suck but who are too concerned with aesthetics to be Tor #this degenerated into a liberal rant. I hate them so much. and the NDP is doing nothing to make itself viable as an alternative
