Has anyone noticed how the beauty standard now is like “you have to be tan and have darker skin or else you’re not pretty enough”?
Hmm I hadn’t thought about it, but you’re right. I’ve never really tried to deliberately tan, but now that you say it, yeah it is kind of a stigma.

Every time I leave my house and I’m driving, I pray out loud that I drive safe and Jesus uses me to be a light wherever I’m going! like every time I’m like “Jesus, it would be really nice if I didn’t go off the road today…” lol!!!
Haha didn’t see this until after I made my last post lol.

I wish Jesus could just drive for me though… *cries* Sometimes when I get nervous I picture angels watching over me and surrounding my car, and Jesus with me, guiding my hands on the wheel, and it helps me so much!
Yeah it’d be so nice if He could literally just take the wheel sometimes lol. Not saying He couldn’t… I w…[Read more]

One last thing: what they’re teaching sounds like critical race theory.
Yup, it is! And it’s in all the schools and curriculums and kids are believing it! Being homeschooled up until my senior year, I had never had to deal with racism, and I never thought I would, being taught that we live in America, in a land where there is equality f…[Read more]

I also understand about it feeling casual…but then again I’m also the person who will talk to Jesus about anything and everything and see Him as my best friend…like if I’m blasting rap music I picture Jesus in the car with me in the passenger’s seat jamming out with me XDXD
Girl literally… that’s so relatable! Sometimes i…[Read more]

No I totally see what you mean. I don’t know if it’s the same way in Canada, but here in the States the same thing is being taught in the schools, only it’s an issue of whites and African Americans. They’re trying to say whites are inherently racist against other nationalities (mainly stemming from the issue of slavery). While I do think…[Read more]

Yep! North Atlantic or New England accent. Though everyone here says /h/ as /ay-tch/ instead of /hay-tch/ and it drives me insane.
It’s /aytch/ and I won’t hear otherwise.

Ruee Hamster Huey replied to the topic Magic Systems in the forum General Writing Discussions 3 days, 14 hours ago
In my world, I have a rather boring magic system.
There are two main types of magic that all magic falls into, magick and I’ll call this one abilities for now, because I haven’t found a satisfying name for it.
Magick (I’m specifically spelling it with a ‘k’ because the ‘k’ on the end is connected to the occult, and I want it to be clear that…[Read more]

Yeah, I like the Sniper one.
@keilah @koshka
It’s okay Keilah. The other day I called one of my characters something like “my little wolf child” and “baby”.
My older sister looked at me with this blank stare and asked who I was talking about because “Isn’t he the soldier?”
I do very similar things lol

@ellette-giselle @linus-smallprint @stephie
Linus, I love that your pastor took a stand and didn’t back down, even if it meant getting arrested. Unfortunately my church didn’t see what was going on right away and complied, but we then realized it wasn’t really as much about health as it was about control. If there was another lockdown implemented…[Read more]

Ooh I like this conversation! My answers will probably be similar to some of the others, but I’m gonna share anyway.
What is your denomination?
Non-denominational. My church is part of a network of churches, but still functions independently.
Did you grow up with this denomination? Are you still growing up with it? Or did you convert to it…

I really love how this story is going!!! It’s so, so good!
btw, one thing I noticed was Ruby started calling the girl by name while talking to Baron, but he never said her name. So, either that was a glitch on your end, or she saw…[Read more]

Probably both? Like, I want to have a better idea of how it all works (and why it’s magic, if that makes sense. Like Wingfeather has the Stones at the heart of the world.)
But I also do want to have it kinda randomly fantastic. It all started with my twin and I sitting with our feet in a hot tub and deciding the water was heated by…[Read more]

Um, yes?! It was a book before a movie, and the book is awesome.
And thank you. I love the little feathery guys too. Who needs regular street rats if you can have wats and wouses fluttering around.

Lovely aesthetics. I have never actually read Peter Pan or seen the movie, but I did just finish a rewrite that has definitely spiked my interest.

Hmm. I do have a series with a magic system, but as it’s a series I haven’t started writing yet (just outlining and world building *shudders*) the system isn’t all figured out.
But it’s like Wingfeather or Ella Enchanted (the book) style magic where it’s more a part of the way the world works than the regular book magic (not sure if…[Read more]
