Dream Wizard and Nightmare Wizard
Oddly enough, these two wizards have never been seen at the same time...
These wizards work their magic in the realm of the unconscious mind, but they have no magical ability to make someone fall unconscious. And so they turn to their preferred methods of achieving the same effect.
Slumber Wizard, who does possess such an ability, could perhaps collaborate with them. However,
Heads up everyone, there's a new scam in town!
(Or perhaps an old one and I am late to the party)
Reasons it is a scam:
1) long, but doesn't reference the fic or characters at all
2) wants money - and will only communicate through dms, they don't have a public profile with proof of their work
And finally!
3) I googled this copy paste text and... suprise! It is a copy paste text. Loads of other people have the same ask
Stay safe and don't fall for this all!
"This person has a secret onlyfans!" "This artist does NSFW commissions!" "This author writes porn on the side!" I cannot begin to tell you how swag and awesome that is.
I can’t speak for other social media webbed sites but I really enjoy how tumblr seems to just completely spin a wheel on whatever media is hot right now. Like yeah sometimes it’s a new show that’s big and actively coming out but also sometimes there will be a solid month where half my dash is Columbo memes. Defy authority. Get really into an book from the 1800s. Watch shows that haven’t aired in 40 years. Celebrate the anniversary of the Boston Molasses Flood. Become unmarketable
oh shit i almost missed it!
Ursula K. Le Guin, “Author’s Note” from The Left Hand of Darkness
Hey here is your friendly reminder to not tell your nice boss stuff.
I’m at the executive management level for my very small company and I have 4 people who report directly to me. I am a nice boss. I’m friendly with my employees, I treat them like professional adults, I actively try to create a positive work environment, and I mentor them and make sure they’re advancing in their careers. I do my best to shield them from the rest of management doing stupid shit. My employees like working for me.
The other day one of my employees came to ask if she could change her hours on Mondays. I said yes immediately because it’s helpful for me to know when she’s here and when she’s not, but as long as she gets her work done I don’t care when and where she does it. She then proceeded to tell me that it was so she could attend therapy and like … I will never use this information but … as a general rule don’t fucking do that.
Do not tell your employer shit about your mental or physical health except for the bare minimum needed to request a reasonable accommodation. Even your nice boss can fire you, even your nice boss can unfairly change your working conditions, and even your nice boss at some point is probably going to face pressure from their superiors.
I’m not saying don’t trust your boss with anything ever. I’m just saying that anytime you are in the workplace you need to keep your private information private. You can still have a good relationship with your boss. Your workplace can still be pleasant. But if it ever feels like disclosing private information is required in order to have a good relationship with your boss, please see that as a red flag.
This post got a like out of nowhere and I only vaguely remember writing it and I’m not entirely sure which of my employees inspired it, but it still holds.
Yeah, I had an episode at work and straight-up told the boss I trusted that it was because I had forgotten a pill. Got fired after five months of pressuring me to leave didn't work.

Ursula K Le Guin inventing mpreg omegaverse in 1969 for her speculative sci-fi novel about gender and having all the sci-fi bros eating it up to the point that it is one of the most important science fiction classics is such a queen move
She really said "the king was pregnant" and everyone cheered as they fucking should
🌌 new year birthday discomfort💫

hehe i managed to make my first illustration of the year for my bday art again yay! entering new front number in my age, a new decade, a more uncertain futures but i will keep reciting "fuck it, we ball" at this economy!!!
not interested in getting involved in the rest of this discussion, for the most part, but to me this is a GREAT piece of advice that many people these days don't seem to be getting or understanding.
not everyone you meet or interact with is your friend, the requirements and expectations for respectful behaviour between friends is not the same as between strangers.
Ducky laundry day 🧺🧼
