A pile of pop culture references in the vague shape of a person.
Also, I wrote a book! It has airships, pirates, grief, addiction, existential crises, and, most of all, hope. Out for queries now.

I'm genuinely intrigued to find out what happens in my WIP3... It's the second draft, so you'd think I'd know.
But, no. Not a clue. It's fascinating how I can tell myself a story and be surprised at every turn.

i was young i thought being a man was so simple, just gotta be swift as a coursing river, with all the force of a great typhoon, with all the strength of a raging fire, mysterious as the dark side of the moon... turns out there's all these social codes to masculinity

It's so cute how they think this GOP will honor its word.
"Oh, but they said they'd look at the ACA credit in December."
Sure, buddy. Now, will that be before or after the illegal arrests and withholding of food?

This deal to reopen the government is fucking disgraceful.
Tens of millions will lose their healthcare. Trump will be emboldened.
This is exactly what’s wrong with Democratic Party leadership and why we need more people in Congress who will actually hold the line.

Every time I play the Sims, I am faced with the sobering reality that I too am but a Sim -- confused, babbling, and shockingly bad at caring for myself.

Remember: If we allow ourselves to fall into fatalism, or wallow in disappointment, or become resigned to what is rather than what should be, we will lose the long game.

We're socialized to constantly apologize for being too outwardly excited about things, but this world is so full of terror and misery that I'd rather see those bursts of light and passion shine through the cracks wherever you can find them.

Now that these folks have proven beyond a doubt that they can win on such “controversial” positions like Trans rights, it’s going to be incumbent on all of us to stay the fucking course and keep establishment Dems on their heels for the foreseeable future.

The right's equating criticism of Netanyahu and Mossad with antisemitism is as asinine as the left's equating criticism of the CCP with Sinophobia.

Sorry I'm late, I was composing a mental apology to a person I've never met and only hypothetically wronged.
Why yes, I have been diagnosed with an anxiety disorder. Why do you ask?

The Surrey International Writers Conference has been my favorite conference for over a decade. This year, it's not happening, because the hotel is in a labor disputed.
SiWC had already purchased plane tickets, etc, for all the presenters. Can you help ensure its future?
