My name is Margaux and I am also known as Retrophiliac. I am self employed and an autistic activist and advocate based out of western Canada. One of my pins is even in the Museum of Vancouver's openMOV! My main focus with my advocacy work is to push for greater resources and funding for disabled small business owners, as I firmly believe it is the most accommodating employment for those who want it. I am the current president of BC PEOPLE FIRST and we do really important work.
Etsy will handle VAT, VOSS and IOSS for international orders.
I also post frequently on instagram, facebook and tiktok.
P.S:
I run a few awesome facebook groups:
Made by Autistics Marketplace and Community
Made by Neurodivergents Marketplace and Community
Autistic inclusive dating and friends
Neurodivergent Skills Connect
Disabled Entrepreneurs/Self Employed in British Columbia
I have been receiving some less than stellar comments on some of my content and one of my designs was recently counterfeit and showed up on shein, temu, Etsy and eBay. Sharing this post with your supportive network would be something I would be grateful for! I want to reach the people who will benefit from the work I do, to hopefully create better and more understanding experiences.
The entire goal I have is to help folks but I would love the chance to expand who I am reaching.
I am such a huge horse nerd and I apologize. :( But I’m really tired of seeing girths that are halfway down a horse’s stomach. This may not be interesting to anyone who is not me, but I like to draw fancy saddles and ridiculously long shanks on bits. Also, horses are the only animal I can draw, so I take advantage of that.
I hope this helps some frustrated non-horsey artists in at least some small way. Remember, when in doubt, add some buckles and some rings. :)
various mistborn au ideas, they’re pretty much all era one because ive been obsessed with it for a while and I just wanna write down some of my thoughts
however absurd
spoilers for mistborn era one and secret history
anyways
- vin dies in the scene in the lord rulers palace where she almost dies like halfway through book one. idk how that would affect the crew, honestly i could see it breaking them apart, or maybe send kelsier into a proper redemption arc
- conversely, evil vin, which is basically vin has a larger spike and can more directly be manipulated by Ruin, which leads Kelsier to be confused and suspicious enough to catch on that something ain’t right and he and sazed start figuring things out much sooner
- Shan Elariel lives, that’s it I just want her to live. maybe she can get kidnapped by the crew or something, maybe redemption arc for her too
- also Reen lives and maybe gets a redemption arc? or not even w/out it i think he could be a really cool character
- kelsiers plan w/ the lord ruler doesn’t work for whatever reason and kell is dead. this is inspired by the scene where vin’s like ‘where do I go next?’ and sazed is like ‘idk but not with me.’ anyways if really could be any of em but vin goes with one of the crew members and yea. i think either sazed or dockson could be interesting, either going to Terris or helping dockson run another job
- ghost/cognitive shadow Alendi. maybe rashek felt bad and made him a shadow when he had the power idk. he basically just follows Rashek around and pesters him or somethin
anyways most of these are probably not logical or don’t make any sense but oh well
Tempeststar, did you know Larkclaw in life? How did you meet her (either in person or via vision/Starclan)?
Tempeststar: I did know her when she was alive but not for long… she passed when I was a kit… i don’t remember much, but I think I used to play with her…
It wasn’t until Pitchstar died that she visited me in my dreams… and told me of my destiny.
Reblog if your blog is boopable-safe so you can get all the (probably new) achievements. I don’t care about notes I just want boops
