I wrote a thing this week for my writing group:

"Come on through.", she beckons.
Eyes
Newly lit with life
Spark across the surface.
Her hair dangled in
Whispy unison
With my own.
Her warm stare
Locked to my anxious one
But in grace
Released

Random morning thought: My laptops with touch screens always have the dirtiest screens. Not because I'm touching them all the time, but because I only remember that my screen is dirty when it's on - but when it's on I don't want to wipe it and mess up my workspace.

Today's going to be the day. I'm going to share my screen on Teams and just start presenting under the assumption that it worked without asking if it did. The answer is always yes.

After years away from game dev, I couldn’t stay silent about my people’s dehumanization. I made Dreams on a Pillow 🍉a game inspired by a famous Palestinian folktale about the 1948 Nakba.

I’m crowdfunding it now—please back & share!

So I just started piano lessons last week and as I was practicing tonight, I came to a realization.

I'd done things *like* this a lot as a child. Things that required a weekly commitment and some level of energy investment even outside of that. But I was never doing them for myself. (1/3)

Good morning dear friends. I had my surgery last night and am now recovering in my hospital room. I am in a bit of pain but other than that am feeling great. I want to thank everyone for following me in my journey. I know it's not over, but the worst is likely behind me.

Much love <3
Hey y'all. Just a heads up that I'm in the hospital for colon cancer. It sounds like it might have been caught early enough that it can be relatively easily removed and it's in such a place that my life shouldn't be overly affected after recovery.

Still in the hospital waiting for the surgeons to be able to fit me in, but still feeling good. The nurses are taking really good care of me and I'm not in any pain. [1/2]

I am pleased to announce that all of your thoughts, feelings, prayers and positive vibes were successful. The cancer has indeed not yet spread and the surgery should be able to remove the cancer. I'm scheduled for surgery tomorrow but of course due to triaging, that is only tentative. 1/2

Today is a wearing-mismstched-socks-that-are-both-still-just-white-day. I'm not sure what that means, but I feel like it means something.

Okay, I'd better get to bed or I'll be scrolling forever. Goodnight loves.

Don't worry, I'm exactly as square irl as I am online.

I'm such a bumbling doofus. I finally got myself a pair of wide legged pants, but I keep hooking my toe into the other pant leg as I walk. I haven't fully fallen yet but it's a matter of time 😭
