Avid reader, bird watcher, shit stirrer, and pet lover. I like to play with yarn. Proud Democrat. My kid says I'm nerdy and kinda dorky, but not in the bad way. LGBTQ+ rights are HUMAN rights.

I like words.

If there is not a ska band named Ted Wassanasong, there should be.

@scalzi.com I just (finally) read Old Man's War. How did I not know about the sweet love story intertwined into the war and gore?

Beautifully written, my man. Well done.

I may have seen Avengers: End Game a zillion times, but I still cry when Natasha trades her life for the Soul Stone.

If you don't 100% unequivocally support trans rights, unfollow me. You will find no comfort here.

daybreak is so still
after a quiet night of
soft snowflakes dancing
to the ground from frozen skies
before falling fast asleep

@jsdewes.com I just finished The Divide series. EXCELLENT! I was glued to my Kindle for 2 weeks. My laundry is behind, I need to vacuum, and my family kept asking me to make dinner but I've found a new author to follow.

This man and a small group of capitol police officers singlehandedly saved our democracy four years ago.

In November, 77 million Americans said "to hell with them" and voted for the insurrectionists.

Your "Back the Blue" flags are a pathetic disgrace and your patriotism is bullsh*t.

"I'm starting with the man in the mirror
I'm asking him to change his ways
And no message could've been any clearer
If they wanna make the world a better place
Take a look at yourself and then make a change"
