I write about werewolves, spaceships, and sometimes other things.

My debut scifi novel Of Monsters and Mainframes is coming out in June 2025. It's about computers dealing with a whole aisle of Halloween monsters and maybe falling in love in space. 🚀🧛🐺🦑🌈
Just found out about the trio winning the nobel prize for medicine, and thank god, 'cause I needed some good news today.

Was going through my photos and found some old pics of me playing in steam. I was 30 in these pics, but I've always loved playing in steam. Best part of going to railway museums: the steam.

This week has been a bit bumpy. Actually, really bumpy. Too fucking bumpy. I've been feeling those bumps, is what I'm sayin'.
But, on the plus side, the librarians on tumblr found and old post of mine and they've been sending me a lot of highly strange messages (my favourite kind).

Researchers in Spain have developed a new intranasal COVID-19 vaccine that eliminates the virus in mice.
One dose gave 60% protection, but two intranasal doses achieved 100% protection with no detectable virus in nasal or lung tissue, suggesting sterilizing immunity.

THE MOON! The moon tonight is so beautiful. Not even a whisker, just a whisk. So new she's practically premature. No, I did not take a photo. My phone is from 2017 and occasionally turns super hot when she gets scared.

Please give me an unironic list of things that have gotten better over the last ten years because I’m spiraling.

My brain is so stupid. I love it so much. I get drunk on 0% beer. Why? It's 0%. I know it's 0%. But somehow, knowing that it's a placebo doesn't stop it from placeboing. I taste the silly water and so I get silly. Stupid, foolish, lovely brain.

In my experience, courage is usually the product of love and/or solidarity. When we are deeply invested in each other, we are more likely to take risks that we wouldn't take out of mere principle, or for the sake of people we feel disconnected from. Our alienation mass produces cowardice.

I dunno. I wrote this. It's about pandemic projects: creative projects people had during the pandemic. I've become lowkey obsessed with them recently. Don't know why.
