So I ( Lets call me L) was brought up by a ridiculously old testament religious father, who made it clear my sole reason for existence was to be a wife and mother.

For so long I believed that was true and took pride in ways I could serve my father and felt it was his place to have dominion over all.

However at my wedding ceremony I finally snapped when my husband ( let's call him A) demanded I bow down before him and pledge my servitude.

Luckily I'd made a really cool friend while gardening ( let's call him S) who helped me escape. S is an amazing guy who brings light everywhere he goes so when he offered to introduce me to his band mate C I said yes right away.

It was love at first sight and pretty soon Cthulhu and I had settled down, built a temple, and I'd given birth to the first Big Tiddy Goths to lure the descendants of my ex to their doom.

Now a few tectonic shifts later I'm the one living a magical life with a beautiful daughter, a stepdaughter who makes me proud every day, and a successful OnlySwamps page. Sadly Cthulhu and I got divorced after he had to go back to his own reality, but since we started family therapy he's gotten much better at answering Monie's summonings.

And here's the kicker folks, my ex ended up marrying my sister, only to end up being kicked out of my dad's place for stealing an apple.

If you are reading this you are probably very confused about a post you just read.

This is the saga of a hard working single mother who just so happens to be a Big Titty Goth Swamphag™ who is raising a wonderful but stubborn stepdaughter and a charming but mischievous daughter who just happen to be Lovecraftian nightmares.

To answer the next few questions you have,

1. Yes a year is way too long to invest role-playing as a soul eating stepmother, but I'm a people pleaser so I will keep making them as long as people enjoy them.

2. No I really don't have anything better to do with my time, as night security my job is entirely free time until it very much is not.

3. Yes I am the one who's been sneaking into your house and night and rearranging your cutlery draw.

4. yes I am salty that I still haven't made it to any of the update subreddits even though this is more believable than 90% of their posts.

5. Yes I have an OnlySwamps just give any passing raven six gold coins and a secret written in your own blood for two months free membership.

Welcome to the cult and enjoy

My little sister Monie (6F) was told to bring in an arts and crafts project to school and my sister decided to show off a book I helped her make.

I'd like to point out the only thing I did was anything involving scissors or glue because my stepmum is crazy protective of Monie.

However when Monie took it in and showed the class the teacher gave her a zero because she refused to believe Monie made it herself.

I get that not all six year olds can write in cursive, or create drawings that show the viewer the exact time and date of their passing. But the teacher could have at least called my stepmum to confirm it was all Monie's work.

I was pissed off and feeling petty, and since I was planning to spend the weekend hanging out with Monie anyway, I decided to show the teacher what happens when Monie is allowed to make stuff without me holding her back.

( spoiler alert it's glitter, just so much pink glitter, the girl loves herself anything shiny)

You should have seen the teacher's face on Monday morning when Monie comes to school riding a sixty foot shoggoth coated from head to tendrils in pink and purple glitter.

It's been three months and they still keep finding surviving pockets of venomous glitter skittering round the school.

I needed an audiobook to fall asleep to on a flight and a found a free audiobook called Pirates of Aletharia from the aptly named "Lesbians, Pirates, and Dragons" series.

I kind of assumed it was going to be trashy romance I could use as white noise, only it actually turned out to be a surprisingly moving book about abuse, grief, self loathing, and trauma.

A similar thing happened with Hive Minds Give Good Hugs, which I thought was going to be a silly fun and turned out to be the best sci-fi fantasy book I have ever read.

Anyone else got any books they'd love to recommend to friends but can't because the name sounds silly?
