Ready for a Redguard redesign? Children of the Wave might be for you!

I've covered every Redguard NPC in Vanilla Skyrim, adding a lot of new, unique, and lore-friendly detail. This includes aging textures, custom warpaints and piercings, and a TON of new hairstyles (thanks to HammerHair!)

queer-inclusive but still misogynist

don't have to be from the US, do have to act like you are

ostensibly welcoming to everybody, mysteriously white as hell

terrified of the idea that sex could be enjoyable for anyone

absolutely incapable of structural critique, everything is individual moral choices

enforcement through public humiliation and isolation accountability :)

fear of infiltration by a corrupting outside influence - asserting a right to privacy or failing to publicly demonstrate moral in-group status is treated as a confession

Visual reference:

Sabalan mountain, Ardabil

Masal, Guilan

Saravan forest park, Guilan

I'll try to list other provinces later but feel free to add your own

Uramanat, Kurdistan province

Sirvan lake, Kurdistan province

Saraab cave, Shar-e-Kurd

Happy Jewish American Heritage Month! ✡︎ 🪬 I made one of these a few years ago, and it was well loved, and I felt it was a good time to make another. In the past year or so I’ve watched the rapid decline of the success of openly Jewish stories and authors in the publishing world. And I understand that it’s because of the rise of Zionism, which has made people (unfortunately) more cautious and more openly hateful towards Jews, and has made Judaism less “trendy” in the market. and as an anti-Zionist Jew myself, I know it makes it all the more important to loudly love Jewish stories and voices, especially as Zionism relies so heavily on antisemitism. To create safe and loving spaces for Jews IS to combat Zionism. So here are some books by (anti-Zionist or non-Zionist) Jewish authors to loudly and proudly love this month and always. things to note: 1. Despite it being Jewish AMERICAN Heritage Month, not all of these authors are American. As a Jewish American living in the UK and seeing the treatment of Jews on both sides the pond, I’ve decided to include authors regardless of location. 2. This is NOT a complete list. I tried to prioritize books that I’ve read or come highly recommended and are on my TBR. I read primarily SFF and horror, so those genres are more represented here. There are also some authors who have to be cautious with stating their opinions publicly for personal safety reasons who I have left off here. Rest assured, I will never knowingly promote a Zionist author on my page. That being said, please leave more recommendations in the comments!!!! Or make your own post and share the love! 3. Not all of the authors have explicitly called themselves “anti-Zionist” but have at least expressed sentiments that make their stance against Zionist ideology clear and may consider themselves non-Zionist or otherwise. 4. If the author had multiple books, I chose their most Jewish one!! all of the books on the first page are explicitly Jewish fantasy, and much of the books throughout are Jewish as well.

Urgent Appeal for My Father’s Life 💔

I am begging you from the bottom of my heart, please do not scroll past my father’s suffering.

Yesterday, my father was seriously injured in the head after a nearby bombardment. The injury is severe, and his condition is getting worse. Doctors have told us that he urgently needs surgery as soon as possible to prevent further deterioration and potentially save his life.

We are devastated and completely unable to afford the cost of the operation. The surgery costs $1,200, and every moment we wait puts my father at greater risk.

Please, I am pleading with you. If you can donate, no matter how small the amount, you could help save my father’s life. If you cannot donate, please share this appeal with others. Every share may reach someone who can help.

I cannot bear the thought of losing my father because we could not gather the money for his treatment in time. Watching him suffer while feeling helpless is a pain I cannot describe.

Please, help us give him a chance to survive and recover.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
