It is Thanksgiving this week, which means it's a good time to acknowledge the land we live on and the Indigenous peoples it belongs to. By no means should this be the only time we acknowledge that.
I live on Iroquois land, specifically the Mohawk region. (1/2)

62% goal met. That's 2 months of breathing room. It'd be nice to reach 100% BUT this is already a huge help. Monumental. Thank you to everyone who contributed or shared.

19% turned into 59% overnight that's two months paid for and some help towards the next month. So that's amazing in just a day of having this up.
I know things are tough all around so it means a lot that people are willing and able to help.

Plumber confirmed that the fuses blowing yesterday was due to the water heater and we need a new water heater. I did find the fuse for the water heater itself so we're good heating wise
(last night we had no light or heating in half the flat, which is less fun).
Wheee
Please buy my books?

I'm 19% into my Ko-fi goal which means I got health insurance for another month. Meeting the full amount will give me a couple months' worth of breathing room to find a more permanent solution so... Any contribution or share helps. And thanks to everyone who helped or messaged to express support.❤️

I used to really really love SVU and over the years I think I came to the realization that I just really really loved Mariska Hargitay.
Fun fact: this is explicitly why Dick Wolf created Law & Order: he violently hates defense attorneys and felt tere weren't enough shows about how defendants and their lawyers are scum
(also when somebody "gets off on a technicality" that actually means the cops committed a crime against them)

Thanks for the host #LateNightWrite! Instead of linking to writing (as I haven't posted any new writings yet) I'm going to link the donation page for Blender (because modeling parts of your story helps with writing them)! Blender is Free and Open Source Software, by the way. fund.blender.org

#LateNightWrite I only ever picture animated adaptations of my stuff and ngl... If I could have anyone I'd love so fucking much for Ashley Johnson to voice Rae. I think she would capture my dumb lesbian chosen one so fucking well.
Amaya is a little trickier though.

#LateNightWrite I thrive on character writing and I would fucking be ecstatic to write for a Dragon Age/Baldur's Gate style RPG if the opportunity fell on my lap.
