That Anabaptist girl you always used to go on about.

I market books for a small press. Home canner, cat lover, book reader and nap taker.

Things you should know about me:
- I work in publishing (but not in a way that is helpful to writers)
- I am married to @midwest-mulcahy.bsky.social
- I read a lot, mostly smut, sometimes poetry
- I will die defending anyone who worked as a child actor

Terrorizing your own population because you failed to prevent 9/11 25 years ago is not a valid function for a cabinet-level department.

It is a new year and I am 23 weeks pregnant which means no closet in this house is safe from reorganization.

For NYE I watched/sang along to both Wicked movies with my friends and their kids, and made it into bed by 11 pm. Complete success, if you ask me.

If you had asked me yesterday how old Dick Cheney was I would have said 103. His visage has haunted American politics for my entire life, how was he only 84.

Being a Cubs fan is really just a highly specific kink.
My congratulations to all Baseball Perverts. It was their "super bowl" last night and it seems they all had a very bad time (in their culture that's how you have a good time)

I had a to-do list for today but it looks like most of my time will be spent begging my fellow progressive Mennos to touch grass.

Sick of everything being Orwellian or Kafkaesque. I demand more Scarrylous situations, where animals drive vehicles and run small businesses.
