Just when I thought I had exhausted all my avenues to vent about my obsessive work crush and had resigned myself to pining in my journal, my buddy @chriswritesplays.bsky.social says he hasn't heard all the lore yet 🥹

Bi guys can be sides, tops and asexual, not just bottoms

Bi girls can be butch and love strap-ons, not just femmes

Sometimes we're fluid and just gay for a person, doesn't mean we're experimenting

Sex is infinite; don't love what bi people put out while putting us into boxes

re-reading Lolita after 15 years and so many passages have the uncanny, before its time cadence of humbert essentially going “hey chat am I cooked” and the answer is always, resoundingly, “yes“

looking up a yes or no question on google and the legitimate answers will be an overwhelming amount of Nos while the A/I answer will be like “Yes, you can microwave a battery but just be cautious ✨”

"What radicalized you?"

Working as a courtroom clerk for five years and seeing how often the so-called criminal justice system criminalized and locked away poverty, addiction and race. It's only correcting those unacceptable to society

Having IBS. What the fuck do you mean this public bathroom has a fucking lock code? I bought a fucking soda so I can use it because I'm about to take a fucking dump in my fucking pants, oh, and I'm not homeless, not that that should matter, homeless folks need to poop too

Dates are so funny. Like lets talk about your job and extended family for 90 minutes, then make out in your car. Just a very amusing sequence of events

The problem with writers posting their daily word count and progress is that when you are ill or stressed or just need a day off, you apologize for it. Let me tell you as a reader. We don't care if you missed your word count goal! We only care when we can buy the book! Take care of yourself!

"What radicalized you?"

I was a 19-year-old Libertarian going to college in St Petersburg, FL around 2002, and rode in a van to Washington, DC with my friends to protest to protect abortion rights
