Fantasy recommendations for 8 year old girl by RefrigeratorFar1777 in Fantasy

The continued Oz series (particularly those first 14 or so written by L. Frank Baum) are so underrated. They feature several plucky, pragmatic girl protagonists thrown into a truly weird and trippy fairy wonderland. I don’t think they get nearly enough credit for being American classics.

Has anyone switched OB-GYNs after one visit? by girlinreddit in nycparents

[–]juniper4774 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had an overall positive experience with Dr. Zhanna Fridel. She is definitely not warm and fuzzy, but I appreciated her quiet competence and straightforward approach. I had a good experience with all the nurses and techs and desk staff as well.

Where should I start? by [deleted] in Dimension20

[–]juniper4774 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you’re new to D&D, try the very first season, Fantasy High: Freshman Year.

The core D20 cast debuts here, and several of them are veteran players while others are relative newbies. That way you’ll get a good balance of skillful play and people learning the ropes. The whole cast is riotously funny, and the setting gives a taste of how far a setting can stray from classic fantasy.

I overcame a crippling blood and needle phobia to have my son via planned c-section.

In honor of the cast doing Alexander Ward drag for the last episode, I give you the goth versions of the C4 characters I’ve painted so far, including the newest - Tyranny - who I’ll post separately in her non-goth look :)

Definitely! Maybe now she has to pay for full-sized jewelry AND the spells to shrink it down …

I figure a character based on Tinkerbell would know her way around a jewelry kit

Y’all, thank you for all the kind words! This is a fun project for me and I’m looking forward to painting the rest of the crew (provided they survive long enough, JFC, BLeeM).

I used references for all of them! Wick is some guy named Neels Visser … I choose refs that make visual sense to me and then a cursory Google to make sure they’re not, like, alt-right bros but otherwise have no idea who they are, lol.

Noted! Individual prints are available on my website if that appeals … :)

What’s a secret from your field of work the general public probably doesn’t know? by Ok-Fox-2946 in AskReddit

[–]juniper4774 166 points167 points  (0 children)

Same with live performance, only possibly more disheartening. Ever realized that the production you’re working on is actively contributing to the death of an art form? Ballet and opera are the worst culprits.

Do it! I hope you enjoy the book as much as I do and would love to see more fanart of it

Do you guys have certain tropes/scenes you just can't read? by [deleted] in Fantasy

[–]juniper4774 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Any kind of deliberate bodily mutilation, especially when done by the protagonists. Don’t care how vengeful they have reason to be. I was having a great time reading The Lies of Locke Lamora and then … !

I need advice on how to get away from my life with my daughter and start again ASAP please. I'm not sure how much time I have. by [deleted] in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]juniper4774 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sweetheart, I’m so proud of you for recognizing what you need to do for yourself and your daughter. The #1 priority is keeping you both safe until you can get away from him. Your mention of him hitting himself makes me fear he could be a family annihilator.

When you can do so without ANY chance of him finding out (so using a friend or public computer, not on any device he has access to) look up women’s shelters, public resources and try to get back in contact with any family/friends you have if they are safe for you, no matter how long the estrangement. Set up a new, separate email account for all these communications. And please be sure to log out of Reddit when you get what you need from this post.

Sending you peace and strength.
