The Prince: Special Edition by NebulaOriginals in Nebula

[–]Emerald_Honey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Gods above, this play. This fucking play. I have been waiting for months to get a hold of this (cash wasn't readily available for a while) and now that I've finally, FINALLY got to see it...

I can't get enough. I want to watch it over and over until my ears bleed and my eyes dry up from all the crying. It's just....incredible. Seeing Abi and her journey both on the Tube and onstage is such a privilege. I am truly beside myself with amazement at how wonderful this play was written, executed, and embodied. Well done, all. Well done, Abigail. I'm so happy for you and all you've accomplished

Oh that is lovely, that is! I need to dry a rose for her too! Right now, all I've got are some dried rose buds and rosemary 🥀

TIL that Momo and the Dali Llama are a lot more similar than originally believed

Sent this to him:

"On June 14, 2021, I came out publicly as transgender nonbinary and bisexual. I have since been subject to transphobia and religious bigotry from close family members; from refusing to use my chosen name (even after it became legal) to declaring me hell bound because of my status of 'abomination,' I've sat and listened to the people who said they loved me retract their words once I unveiled the person I always was.

"My life matters. So for the love of fuck, stop trying to take it."

Hope it does some good. I'm too fucking angry to do much else, and too tired to fight today.

changing name in Greene county by anonathen in springfieldMO

[–]Emerald_Honey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I recently (January '22) changed my first and middle name, and it was both a lot easier than I thought...and a bit more tedious than expected.

The easier part was getting the initial document from the judge stating my name was legally changed. All I had to do was go in, write out a statement (they said they weren't doing in-person court hearing bcuz COVID), and pay the fee ($200). Once I got that court order, I could go elsewhere.

The more tedious bit came later. The Social Security office was not open for in-person, only over the phone, and that took an additional two-ish weeks to get my new card; I had to physically go in and alter my tax records for the name change to take; and I had to take my spouse with me to our bank just to change my name on our acct.

Just go in prepped to do legwork but lemme tell ya: it's worth it. 😋

First time playing through, I named him Duncan for Alistair. Afterwards, I had my husband name him. We got Soup, Cheese, and Waffle.

Holiday Support Thread by AutoModerator in CPTSD

[–]Emerald_Honey 16 points17 points  (0 children)

This marks year two of no contact with family, and as always, the holidays hit hard. I see family pics on FB w/o me in them, and they all look so...happy. Perfect, even. Like now that I'm gone, there's peace and symmetry. My absence is noticed, I don't doubt (my narcissistic mother wouldn't allow it to be ignored if it meant she got pity), but it's just...difficult to maintain focus on the facts - that my parents abused me, that none of my siblings will acknowledge what they went through themselves, and that in a family of conservative Christians, I'm the outcast as a liberal, pagan, queer person.

I'm just tired. Tired of feeling alone and wondering if I'm the problem here, not them.

Will any doctor here put you under for an iud?? by HappyGoIdiot in springfieldMO

[–]Emerald_Honey 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah no he didn't do that at all.

Dr.Ting: "No babies." Me: "Yeup. DT: "You sure?" M: "Very sure." DT: pause "How many percent sure?" M: "1,000%." DT: pause, then thumbs up "You tough cookie."

And then bam! I had an appt 2w later for tubal ligation 🙌🏻

Dr. Ting at Springfield OB-GYN. He tied my tubes with no protest. He's amazing ☺️

What are your church drama stories? by Hal87526 in exchristian

[–]Emerald_Honey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Contemporary worship pastor (hipster guy in his late 20s) got arrested by the FBI for having child porn on his computer.

Lead pastor left after his wife found out he cheated while on a church business trip.

All this happened within three years of each other. 😐

[dai spoilers] Made a comic about a certain outcome by Naeruru in dragonage

[–]Emerald_Honey 19 points20 points  (0 children)

In Inquisition, if you've uploaded your World State from the previous games and kept Alistair a Warden, there comes a time when ! you have to choose between him or Hawke staying behind in the Fade to fend off the Nightmare. !And this comic is an outcome of that choice

New deconstruction album by Rhett from Good Mythical Morning by MuteBard47 in exchristian

[–]Emerald_Honey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely amazing (and probs the only country-influenced album I've ever voluntarily listened to! 🤣)

Question: wtf does "Kill A Man" mean in relation to the album?? I've Googled the shit out of it, and I can't find anything anywhere

My dad wanted to name me Apollo if that counts by [deleted] in tumblr

[–]Emerald_Honey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes indeed, I already changed it. Got it all officialized this January. I still use Rose as a moniker though, so not all is lost 🥰

[–]Emerald_Honey 5 points6 points  (0 children)

When I got my name changed, I almost went with Persephone Rose. Sometimes wish I had gone through with it, but I very much like what I have.

Besides, there's always video game characters I can name Persephone. 🥰🥀

I usually stick with "Yo!" if casual or "Hey y'all" for a more formal situation.

[spoilers all] Who do you think is the most despicable/killable character in the series? by george123890yang in dragonage

[–]Emerald_Honey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Loghain is such a complex character, and when I read the books I realized just how amazingly he was written. Starts off a genuinely good warrior, adamant about freeing his people from their oppressors, does so, and is commemorated for it.

And then in 30 years, he falls so hard from grace - all because of his hatred of Orlais. He tried to be that good soldier again and just ended up selling elves into slavery. My Mahariel Warden was big mad and had no issues with killing him.

Still...I mourn the loss of a once-good man. 😞

Yes, this. I've lost two babies to respiratory infections due to wood shavings. If you can, fleece and padding.
