A reminder:

YOU didn’t fail your parents.

Your parents held rigid expectations and never adjusted them even when it was clear they didn’t fit you.

Children grow in all directions. It’s not your fault if your parents weren’t prepared to grow with you.

Boosting for Lily because this is an excellent way to help a family out if you have unwanted gift cards or unused movie digital codes.
Time for my annual reminder that if you were gifted DVDs with codes for digital you won’t redeem, I would put them to good use!

We are also game for any unwanted gift cards from a boycott store. Stick it to your relatives by regifting to a Black and liberal homeless family, LOL.

The first time I wore real deal red lipstick, a glamorous woman told me I looked like I just got back from Paris.

Every compliment I give is in hopes of making someone else feel as great as that did.
What's a compliment you'll never forget?
What's an insult you'll never forget?

Good morning! If today is a special or meaningful day for you, good or bad, I hope you feel loved and safe.

If today is NOT a special or meaningful day for you, I also hope you feel loved and safe.

Just feel loved and safe today okay?? Just do that.

Okay love you bye 💜

I know I don’t talk about writing much. It is because I am writing so slowly.

But I want you to know that I am taking a part of this story that absolutely sucked and took me months to produce four of the worst chapters I have ever written and in the edit I figured out how to fix it.

And for tonight, a peaceful sleep at just the right temperature. I love you! Goodnight 💜
Good morning! Today, for you, I'm wishing a day that feels like waking up thinking it's moments before your alarm is set to go off only to discover it's actually just 1am and you have 5 more hours to sleep and then you're able to fall right back to sleep and have the most marvelous dreams. Love you!

November 14th. #HelpFolksLive2025 thread. Something's *always* due & food is *always* needed. Things only get better with community action. *Now* is when folks need food, water, shelter, meds. *Now* is when we/the community needs to be there for each other. There's no one else. Just us.

Gonna need help with groceries, as I won’t meet the work requirements for SNAP. I will be recovering from surgery and won’t be able to work. I will try to get a medical exception but I’m not sure if I’ll meet the requirements.

kavanaugh not beating the allegations that he’s a dumbass
Brett Kavanaugh (September 2025): The facts and how they relate to the law don’t matter. Assume ICE and other federal forces always act with integrity, always respect rights, and consistently impose minimal burden.

Brett Kavanaugh (December 2025): Should I not have done that? Was that wrong?
Kavanaugh in a footnote in today's opinion says "the officers must not make interior immigration stops or arrests based on race or ethnicity."

What I want more than anything is to build a world where gender and all the words and expectations and history are less like a prison and more like a colorful ball pit we get to play around in.
It’s all about context. Like my wife and I still use “wife” even though they’re non-binary, because it feels like such a delicious fuck you to all the people who think we shouldn’t be allowed to be married
