In case there are people left I haven’t shared this with.

Also, sleeves are bullshit.

Started New York 2140 a few days ago… about 5 minutes after this cozy moment of reading over lunch… the landscapers started their engines behind me.

*sigh…

When it’s actually cold enough to wear your knitwear and brand new self made jacket in Florida.

Fun fact, I compete in a very niche sport and I seem to have almost no photographic evidence I throw.

This weekend I threw for Grace, who always called me her Shield Maiden.

Superior, they said, never gives up her dead
when the gales of November come early…

50 years. An event that lives in the hearts of all that grew up on the Lakes.
On this eve of fifty Novembers
the winds still howl
the bell still tolls.

My breath turns heavy
as we drift into the long cold night.
The Fitzgerald stirs beneath.

I harbor their echoes
and cradle her steel.

My waves bear the sorrow
of all I have taken.

Never have I been more hyped about a Lego set.

Until they release anything DS9 related.
LEGO posted this cute video for the launch of their first official #StarTrek set today

Almost 100 pages into The Long Way to a Small Angry Planet…

Honest question…. Am I Kizzy? I think I’m Kizzy…

November 10th marks the 50th anniversary of the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald, perhaps the most famous of all the estimated 6,500 ships that have gone down in the Great Lakes.

A few days ago I lost my soul sister, best friend, and co-worker, Grace Gonzalez. It’s shocking and I don’t yet know how to process it.

But I know it will involve smiles and tears and glitter and music.

Fuck 2025….

Nothing makes me happier than knowing Orlando Pride is happening along side No Kings.

Pride is a protest.

this rocks. when indiana edu killed the student newspaper, Purdue stepped up, printed the forbidden issue, drove it to Bloomington and stocked the boxes.

Just finished Atmosphere. I rarely read romances, but wrap it in a jacket of the early shuttle days of NASA and we can talk.

It’s the first time I saw a character who never expected to have a relationship, and watch them realize they aren’t broken in a way that’s very identifiable to my Aceish 💜

Library additions over the past two weeks.

Yes… more Trek.

But excited for The Long Way to a Small Angry Planet. I’ve heard great things.

I love used books!!

Bless You Boys
FINAL: Detroit Tigers 9, Seattle Mariners 3 in Game 4 of the ALDS.

The Tigers' offense comes alive just in time, sending the series back to Seattle for a winner-take-all Game 5 on Friday, and their ace Tarik Skubal on the mound.

There used to be two adorable icons I used as markers on my long runs, rainbow colored bicyclists in helmets going each way.

Apparently showing kids they should wear helmets when they bike is a threat to their safety.

Fuck off Florida. This is really the hill you want to die on?

Lining is in! All that’s left is the cuffs and hardware!

I’m hand stitching in the lining to the cuffs since those are always tricky to me, plus I modified the pattern pretty heavily there, so need to do some improv work.

Next project is already lined up.
