Angry person who believes my own human rights do not cancel anyone else’s.
Tech, fountain pens, and various other interests.
My opinions are my own and I do not presume to speak for anyone else.
My work is at the intersection of tech and gov.

America is the richest nation on the planet... they should be able to provide free healthcare at the point of need to every citizen... thus no need for health insurance. UK is able to do it why not US?

I’m starting to think that the only way I’ll be able to survive the incoming fascist regime is getting a book deal for my rock & roll love story #TheSoundOfSettling so I won’t have to do politics anymore

It's not the Robin Hood story folks wanted but attractive, well-heeled young guy who had back surgery, unrelenting pain to the point of impacting his mental health. He withdraws from his peeps, eventually goes to a dark place, and eventually takes it out on insurance CEO.
Still relatable.

Hubby and I got funding to direct a short film adaptation of one of our works!
I would LOVE the opportunity to shadow a horror director first - if anyone has a shoot scheduled between now and June of 2025. (Particularly in L.A.)
Just putting it out here in the blue skies! 😀
