Part of me wants to shift the entirety of Magical Fantasy Adventure Land into the normal world instead of splitting it into a separate realm.
Part of me is still annoyed that this fucker still doesn’t have a proper title. Or at least something that sounds better as a place holder.
it’s called Mafalia. that’s your world’s name. ‘MAH-FAR-lee-uh’.
That actually sounds really good as a world name. I’m curious to know where that came from?
it’s the acronym. “Magical Fantasy Adventure Land”-ia becomes MaFAL-ia: Mafalia.
i always find if you need a placeholder name for something, write it out and make up an acronym, adding and removing letters or vowels if need be.
for example:
“The House Where Clio Fell in Love With Him”
“The HouseWhereClioFellinLoveWithHim”
“THoWeCliFiLWH”
“ThrowecliFiLWH”
“ThrowecliffiLWH”
“ThrowecliffiLWH”
“Throwecliffe”
“Thrawecliffe”
hence ‘the house where Clio fell in love with him’ becomes ‘Thrawecliffe House’. what’s a ‘thraw’? i don’t know. is it on a cliff? maybe; that’s an author’s preogative.
suddenly the name of the house itself throws up new questions which an author in answering goes off down a rabbit hole of worldbuilding.
Holy fuck. That is absolutely amazing advice.
Thank you so much!!!!!
As someone who regularly smashes words together for humorous purposes, I’m appalled I’ve never thought to use it in my writing. Bless you.

Oh no.
well shit
Also guilt, shame, and self-loathing! You find yourself unable to do the things you want or even the things you need to do and you feel like a terrible person, it’s real fun
Being a man does not make you evil. Being a man is morally neutral. You decide whether you are a good man with your actions
You are not delusional, your feelings are how you perceive reality
Your transness is not a lifestyle choice, it’s your reality at all times
Your existence does not harm or undermine gnc women in any way
The scientific and medical communities at large agree that being trans is not a delusion, and that the most effective treatment of dysphoria is transition
Random hate-filled 30 year old women on the internet are not more educated than entire communities of people who have devoted their lives to studying and practicing medical science
Our understanding of biology, sex, and gender did not culminate in your 6th grade science textbook
You do not have “autoandrophilia”, you are allowed to avoid dysphoria and be sexual at the same time
Being a gay trans man does not make you homophobic
Being a straight trans man does not make you internally lesbophobic
Being bisexual is not wrong or lesser, period

This recipie is great for mabon, I am definitely going to make this. Fair warning this recipie doesn’t really have set measurements it’s kinda just “however much you think is good” for most of it.
Ingredients
1 large OR 2 small apples (preferably granny smith but any apple works fine)
Cinnamon
Brown sugar
Butter
(Optional) 1 jumbo marshmallow
And if you’re feeling fancy
Nutmmeg
Ginger
Ok now to make it
Cut your apple into small pieces
Put a considerable chunk of butter in a frying pan
Add about half a cup of brown sugar to the pan
Add cinnamon (to taste)
Add nutmeg and ginger (if you want) you do not need alot.
Stir till everything’s combined
Apples IN
Let it get nice and melty, you want the sugar to caramalise, add more butter if you think you need it, now’s the time to add that jumbo marshmallow if you want it. In chunks, dont just chuck it in it takes forever to melt.
Sprinkle in some salt if you want
Ok you’re done! Your house should smell amazing right now. You can use this in pastries, on pies, on ice cream or just eat it out of a bowl. Add whatever you want to it, it’s kinda a bare bones recipie but it’s great on its own.
And @faelyss-thewitch here it is!! I kinda made up the recipie on a whim one day but it’s really good.
