@Oaktree well done! I wish I had the self confidence to step out like that. Because I am missing my upper front teeth I am too embarrassed to talk or smile. You are amazing for stepping out, I am so proud of you!
The same goes for job interviews, I look at vacancies and think I would not get the job because of my missing teeth. Who would want someone with no teeth in a customer service role?!

@SmilingGecko happy Tuesday my friend! I wanted to let you know, I am not actually a lass! I'm nonbinary, and use they/them pronouns. So I think the technical term is Mx. Jynx! It's no sweat btw, no guilt in not knowing!! And like, I got no qualms about having a yammer about my gender so if you're curious about my experiences pls feel free to ask!
My crafty project is for decoration!! At the moment I'm planning to hang it as the centrepiece for this lil display:
Remarkably difficult to photograph with the great honking mirror below it 😅
Oh neat, I have seen that one floating about, will have to check it out. My throat and sacral chakras have been feeling misaligned methinks. Slow work indeed, but work worth doing!
I do like that a lot!! Good psych, hehe. You've also reminded me of a quote!
It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society. - Jiddu Krishnamurti
It's oh so easy to let that pain live in our bodies hey. Much better when we can pour it into art, play, and movement!
Hope you had a splendid night your own self, and a similarly lovely arvo 😉
Ooh and big 💜 to you both @Oaktree and @ENKELI, ty for the super sweet messages. And also Hiiiiiii 👋😊 to anyone else passing through!! @TAB @Bill16 @greenpea

Hello @Jynx sorry about that misunderstanding. Yes I do know a bit about gender fluidity, only one way of addressing someone, Mx. I know of and transfolk but am not up to speed on all of it.
My biological sister (adoption) was a lesbian in the 1980's and belonged to LGBTQIA+. Had a few lesbian and bisexual friends and a couple of trans folk I used to know over the years but possibly am not educated enough.
I don't mind who people are so long as they are nice people.
I just remember how hard it was for lesbians in the 1980's. It wasn't well accepted. We used to have to go to pubs that put on a lesbian only spaces. The vilification used to be intense. You just could not come out.
I remember reading a classic lesbian book called "Rubyfruit Jungle" I think which just about every lesbian teenager read at some time which my sister told me to read
Even now had a couple I used to know on the pagan scene who find it hard in public. The attitudes still aren't the best.
People should just have a right to be and I'm OK with that.
I hope you have a nice arvo, I'm just back from a walk. Its a full moon this weekend so putting my crystals out for a moonbake!
Thankyou for sharing your art, its so YOU! ❤️
