#I’d be plant personally

[g-g-gh00st]

Question for my favourite Owl House fans:

In the event of a zombie apocalypse, what coven would you want to be in?

(No you can’t control the zombies with abomination) (also you can’t be in the emperors coven that’s hax)

#the owl house #the owl house covens #abomination coven #beast keeping coven #plant coven #healing coven #illusionist coven #oracle coven #construction coven #potions coven #bard coven #I’d be plant personally #ghost was here

Every time I make a post about my fae being dramatic or them being weird, please know that I’m doing so because I’m also in stupefied awe at it.

If you ask someone what they think their Dnd class is they’re always going to say barbarian, but in reality it’s way closer to warlock. You’re not raging, you’re making stupid dangerous decisions that make things harder on yourself, you fucking wish you were throwing chairs.

“I’d be a barbarian because I can get pretty mad :3”Cool. hunters mark, ensnaring strike, dread stalker ranged attack, also normal ranged attack. Fuck you.

#this is coming from someone who used to have pretty fucking bad anger issues #anwyays got told I’d be a Druid #which is coming from the person who’s weird about me mainly playing rangers #so their opinion doesn’t count because rangers are pretty fuckign badass #but also plants are nice so I’m willing to be somewhat accepting of Druid #zenith thinks

oh so baby pond snails are bastards on purpose

#Emu tries to post #aquatic snails #Pond snails #i love my ponds! they are just so Stubborn and Annoying #I. I respect that they are like the hulk of snails and refuse to let me take them off whatever they’re on #I do not respect that they keep deciding to climb out of the whole tank I. WHY #It’s clean! It’s got food! It’s got a filter! It’s got other snails! What more could you want! #and then they decide heehoo I’m gonna go on a journey and be on the other side of the room in another tank :) #COME ON GUYS #I thought I’d overestimated this capability and forgotten I’d put one guy in that tank but Seriously #I put some babies in a cup for later #two minutes pass. I look over and WHY ARE YOU ON THE OUTSIDE ALREADY #this cup had like a centimetre of water in and in two minutes they climbed all the way to the outside????? #I guess I need to extend their tank and make it taller purely so they can keep climbing without getting stuck outside #I. #pond snails are probably the Worst nightmare of anyone who doesn’t want snails #I do want snails but I have many grievances with ponds specifically #Malaysian trumpet snail my darling you have no faults whatsoever #the rest of you though… ramshorns eat each other. And also every plant. Bladder snails make so many babies and so many poop too #pond snails are. They have a lot of personality. Not a very nice personality though #Malaysian trumpet snails though? Oh my sweet sweet darlings with your sheep like faces and teeny babes and love of underground #if I ever get one of the snails that’s actually sold as a pet I would probably want a rabbit snail

Singing to myself in the kitchen

~Gonna make a zucchini snack! I’m roasting up some zucchini for a snack!~

#personal #food #I love zucchini and my coworker gave me a huge one from her garden #I don’t grow zucchini in mine because I know the plants produce SO MUCH #my husband doesn’t like it so I get to eat it on my own #I’d never be able to keep up with a plant if I grew it myself #but I’m having some today. as a treat.

#I’ve been thinking (and being alone with my thoughts like this is sometimes dangerous but what can ya do) #and like. I think I’ve been trying to make my standards high when it comes to dating to protect myself from getting hurt #which. of course? why wouldn’t I? but like. I think I tried to make my standards impossibly high so that when nobody lived up to them #I could just be like ‘oh! how sad! anyway it’s safer for me to be single because [whatever bullshit reason I can come up with]’ #and this does protect me from getting hurt. but it also protects me from good things like. being intimate with someone. #which. if I were to be perfectly honest? that’s the only thing in my life I think I’ve ever really wanted more than anything #but of course I’m scared of that. because being intimate with someone requires opening up to them. #laying yourself bare and hoping they stick around after seeing what you bring to the table. #and like. I feel like I’m the guy who is firmly planted in one of the tails of a normal distribution #(and I’m not talking about the better-than-average part of the distribution if you get what I mean) #so like. I know there probably aren’t a lot of people who would stick around after I took off all my masks and laid myself bare before them #and I haven’t met many people I’d be willing to try that for #but sometimes. someone comes into your life and you feel like you’re ready to risk it all #but you don’t. because being vulnerable is a dangerous place to be. feeling as desperate as I do at times is a dangerous place to be #and so I’m probably not going to risk anything. but. listen like #why.. if my standards are so high.. is there this person in my life capable of meeting all of them. #and why.. when I’m this out of my mind for someone.. do there seem to be so many obstacles between me and them #why do I always fall for the ones who listen to me and show me kindness when I’m fragile. #even when there isn’t a chance in heaven or hell that it’s gonna work out. #why do I often think about how many times we’ve hugged. why do I want to live up to their high opinion of me. #why do I play the things they’ve said to me over and over in my head like a broken record. #why do I always have to obsess about the people I fall for. why can’t I just be normal about this. #like. this is starting to get in the way of my everyday life. it’s occupying my mind most of the time. this can’t be healthy. #in short. why the Fuck am I Like This and How Do I Stop.

The other thing that’s happened is I got sent the wrong deodorant so now I either have to contact customer service, or spend three months smelling like apple and cinnamon (which I didn’t even know was a scent they offered)

#it’s wild. that’s not a commentary on the situation that’s legitimately the deodorant brand #my friend had a referral code so i used it and ended up actually really liking the scents lol #so i saw they had some limited edition stuff and the french lavender and chamomile sounded really good #so i ordered that but they’ve sent me apple and cinnamon instead #and like. as much as i like that the scents aren’t generic and artificial and that there’s a big range to choose from #i don’t think i want to spend three months smelling like apple and cinnamon. like… i like it; don’t get me wrong; but it’s not giving #something i want my body to smell like. it’s giving candle. it’s giving food #i prefer a fresh scent? i don’t mind what it is. i like the cotton/sea salt; i like thunderstorm; i like wild strawberries #i LOVE the elderflower and cucumber one. i wish they’d make it a regular scent #i want to smell like plants or laundry or the rain more than i want to smell like freshly baked cookies. i think #if i contact them and they’re completely out of lavender and can’t send me it i’m going to be so sad #even if i can just receive like one. just to experience it #this is such a stupid problem. i would’ve never had this problem if i’d just continued rolling aluminium on my body #but here we are i suppose #personal

hi context I just woke up from a nightmare but pov: you are but a small child during naptime in the daycare and you wake up from a nightmare and the only way you can go back to sleep is if Moon holds and rocks you bc the swaying and the little bell sounds are super soothing

plus the inevitable moondrop he’d probably give you to avoid you not going back to sleep but yk

#bro I think this was the most disturbing nightmare I’ve ever had #it was fucking. personal #jesus anyways I’ll probably write smthn like this later bc I can’t find smthn like this here but figured I’d plant a seed lol #fnaf #moondrop #fnaf moon #fnaf dca #the daycare attendant

had a good day today :-)

#figured I’d document since my last few personal posts have been depressing lol #my auntie took me to the garden centre so I had free autistic reign to run about and touch plants and look at bees #and I bought a bonsai tree and some stuff to set up a terrarium :-)

absolute cosmic irony that I was such a shithead about ace and NB people a decade ago when those are 2 things I now consider myself to be in some capacity. the gods rlly were like they think they’re so funny well we’re about to be hilarious

#personal #erika's blog and bar #does it count as internalized phobia. when I think back on it it doesn’t feel that way but idk #I’d be interested in trawling my archives and seeing where my head was at and if I can figure out where tf it came from #bc back then I was like well I’m ace but also lesbian so it’s different than being cishet ace #like it wasnt full ace exclusion it was just. cishet exclusion #which I don’t believe in now but it’s part of why I’m like is this internalized??? #tbh I think I probably got influenced by like crypto TERF rhetoric #idk I just remember one day I was like wait a second actually yeah who cares if they’re cishet other cishets think they’re weird #and it felt like waking up from something. I’m sure this was the product of pushback from the broader Ace community #but I don’t remember. I just rmemeber having a realization one day of how shitty I was being #with NB people I don’t remember a lot I just kinda remember like. being annoyed with the gender discourse of 2012-2014 #like w ppl being like my gender is plant or galaxy or whatever #which in retrospect I’m p sure a lot of those people might’ve been trolls #but even if they were sincere it’s like okay whatever do you #I think a lot of my shittiness was stoked by annoyance at how brain rotted and toxic the SJ discourse could be back then #like if you look at what Twitter is now it was basically like that #just absolutely wretched and toxic environment that contributed to a lot of ppl being radicalized I think #and a lot of bad faith actors looking to take advantage of ignorant kids who got screamed at or mocked in that environment #for asking questions and trying to learn and not already knowing the correct terms and whatnot #like I do still firmly believe that a lot of leftist spaces create their own far right adversaries simply by treating #open minded ignorance like it’s the same thing as deliberate bigotry and malice

Hello there! 👋

Thanks for checking out my Tumblr.

There’s no particular theme other than my own interests and occasional posts about goings on in my life/mind.

A little bit about me:

I enjoy reading. Favorite series/books (in no particular order) The Sword of Truth series, LOTR, The Three Musketeers, Pride and Prejudice, Fever series, The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. I could go on. 📖 📚

I like to cook! And bake. I don’t do either as often as I used to or would like, but try to do so a few times a week. 🥘 🧁

You could say I’m a witch. I’m not sure how solid I feel about that term to identify myself anymore, but I’m ok with it. It’s all a journey right? I’m definitely a fan of the witchy aesthetic. I practice privately so won’t be sharing much of my personal practices on here. But I may reblog other’s’ content related to witchcraft, paganism, the occult, etc. 🕯 ✨ 💀

I like cats. You will be seeing cats. Sometimes in large bursts. 🐈‍⬛ 🐈 🐈‍⬛

I am the person who watches the same shows over and over. Occasionally I’ll watch something new. That then gets incorporated into the rotation of shows I rewatch. 🔁

I think plants are awesome. 🪴 🌲 🌸

I’m all up for making new friends here!

But before you interact please:

Be 18+

Know that I will not respond to inappropriate messages.

Other than that we’re golden! 👍

Alright. Pinning post. Hope you have a wonderful day/evening wherever you may be! ✨ 🖤 ✨

I reblog fanfics from: @fanofurfics

#did an introduction a while ago but figured I’d do another and pin it this time #Incase anyone cares #am I a real tumblrer now? #tumblee? #tumblite? #about me #get to know the person behind the blog #get to know me #pinned post #text post #i love books #lotr #sword of truth #fever #booklover #books #plants #nature #tv shows #cats #catlady #cooking #baking

Sùil Airgid— Silver Eye. It is an incredibly deadly poison derived from the nectar of a nameless silver flower that grows in the wilds of Seelie. Only one drop ingested or in the bloodstream is enough to cause death. Its notable feature is that, as something of a scar, silver flecks of coloration are left in the irises of those who have come into contact with it— hence the pretty self-explanatory name. It is by those eyes that the cause of death is usually determined to be Sùil Airgid in the corpses found.

The flower it comes from is notorious for its rarity— it only blooms for but a few moments under a blue moon, and even then only if the proper factors in temperature, soil quality, and other things are present. It’s a fickle thing which makes it incredibly difficult to find and even more difficult to find in the exact right moment. Near impossible, frankly.

Because of those reasons, and because it cannot be domesticated and grown intentionally, the poison is a rare one. It’s only “saving grace” in the eyes of those who would use it is that the poison is simple to make (simply collect the nectar of the plant), and, once collected, it does not diminish in potency or lethality no matter how many years have passed or what conditions it is stored in.

It is still difficult to find on any black markets and because of its rarity, the price tag usually attached makes it something of a “nobles’ poison”. Who wouldn’t be willing to pay something extra for the near guaranteed death of their target?

Especially if said targets were the royal family of Seelie.

#{Aur Headcanon #mobile #Aur is literally like the only person to have ever been hit with it and lived to tell the tale #his eyes really freak people out because of it (I mean people were already freaked out by his eyes #so it’s gotten wayyy worse) #One day I’d like to sit down and think up a bunch of poisons and plants and things Seelie has brewing in it #the sky’s the limit and imagine the shenanigans #{Fae

Deltarune fan-artists who draw Lightworld Kris wearing fingerless gloves

A very pleasant

You make me love a character I already relate to even more, because I have Chilblains and have to wear gloves, just casually, even in the summer sometimes.

#this is like not a joke at all #I swear #every time I see art where they have fingerless gloves on #my brain is just that one comic #same hat… same hat? same hat! same hat! same hat! …same hat… #but y’know #gloves instead of hat. #i’d like to personally thank mr Tobias Radiation Fox #for planting the seed of enjoying characters with they/them pronouns in my brain back in 2014 #and then doubling down on it in 2018 by making a protagonist who is LITERALLY JUST ME. and also has canon they/them pronouns #deltarune #deltarune kris #deltarune fanart #deltarune meme

My Experience Buying eSIMs for Gaza by Maia Kobabe

instagram / patreon / portfolio / etsy / my books

Full transcript below the cut:

Cover:

My Experience Buying eSIMs for Gaza 

Project organized by @ connectinghumanity_

by Maia Kobabe @redgoldsparks 

Page 1 

In Fall 2023, I saw instructions on instagram for how to purchase an eSIM card and submit it to be distributed to someone in Gaza. 

Download an eSIM app-> Select Middle East as the region-> Purchase-> Screenshot the QR code-> Do not activate-> send to [email protected] 

Image of Maia looking at eir phone. “That sounds easy, I’ll buy one.” 

I emailed an Airalo eSIM QR code to gazaesims on Nov 17 2023. 

Page 2

By January 2024, it hadn’t been activated yet. I bought a second one from Nomad and sent my new QR code and resubmitted my old one. 

Image of Maia looking at eir phone. “How long does this usually take, I wonder?” 

By February neither had been activated, but Connecting Humanity kept posting about needing more. I bought a second Nomad and resubmitted all of them on February 15, 2024. 

Page 3

The Nomad eSIMs are much cheaper than Airalo, but what I didn’t realize is that they expire even if they haven’t been activated. At the end of February I decided to try a third company, Simly. Here’s a price comparison: 

AIRALO: $39 USD for 3GB, never expires 

SIMLY: $22 USD for 3GB, never expires 

NOMAD: $16 USD for 3GB, expires after 8 weeks even if unused, only offers in-app refunds 

Page 4

Connecting Humanity asks folks to wait at least 3 weeks before resending a QR code that hasn’t been activated yet. On March 7 Mirna Elhelbawi posted: 

We send EVERY esim we receive. Bear in  mind that we are dealing with people at a war zone. They might take it and get killed before activating it, they might take it and their phone gets lost or destroyed. They might take it and search for days for stable internet connection to activate it, and some of them activate it unsuccessfully due to lack of knowledge and the horrific situations they are in. ~Connecting Gaza 

By early April, my first Nomad eSIM expired unused. I resubmitted my three remaining eSIMs. 

Page 5

Suddenly, two of my eSIMs were activated on the same day! The Airalo I’d purchased 4.5 months earlier and my second Nomad. 

Image of Maia looking happy and surprised. 

Image of Maia looking very intensely at eir phone. “I have to make sure these don’t run out!” 

I began buying top-up packages immediately. 

Page 6

I felt like I had planted a seed in the fall and waited all winter for it to sprout. Seeing it activated was like watching the first new leaves break the soil. 

Image of Maia with a watering can labeled “data”, sprinkling water on two little sprouts. “Watering my eSIMs!” 

Sadly, only .07 GB of data was ever used on my Nomad. It was never used again after that first day. 

Page 7

But my Airalo has been in constant use for over a month now. I check on it every day. 

I will never know the person I am buying data for and they will never know me. But we are connected by the same strings of hope and grief that connect us all. 

Image of two hands holding a phone, which is connected to a flying kite. 

Page 8

On April 5, 2024 Connecting Humanity reported they had sent more than 250,000 eSIMs to Gaza, equivalent to approximately $6.3 million donated! You can visit gazaesims.com for more info, instructions, and discounts. Here are my referral codes: 

MAIA5367 for $3 off Airalo 

MB772 for $3 off Simly 

MAIA66GF for $3 off Nomad 

If you need more incentive, the Cartoonist Coop is doing art rewards. Visit cartoonist.coop/esims4gaza 

Page 9

Image of Maia, weighing two options. “Buying an eSIM is easy and can make a very direct impact. It can also take a lot of patience and could get expensive over time if you commit to keeping the eSIM topped up indefinitely.” 

If an immediate one time donation is more your speed, I recommend Operation Olive Branch and Gazafunds, two places to find Gofundmes aiding Palestinian families.
