I saw the Stardew Valley Symphony of Seasons the other day! 🌽 Being in the crowd felt like an extension of PAX 😂 Definitely makes me want to start a new farm!

Sharing this again in the wake of same-sex and same-gender marriage being challenged in the US because more, more than ever, we should all fiercely reject heteronormativity and embrace the freedom of human existence and everyone’s right to love.
Throw the Man Away With Me: Rejecting heteronormativity in Run Away With Me, Girl

While it says a lot about how forced heteronormativity cruelly forces queer people to diminish who they are, the story also envisions so much more for its heroines.

I wanted to share about two amazing shops I came across at Renn Faire! ✨

The Gilded Teafling - purchased some blends for friends and family

The Weeping Fae - gorgeous hand-crafted jewelry. Grabbed a pair of earrings for my friend!

I wrote this because now, more than ever, it felt immensely important to me to put my personal politics on paper, and that meant using Run Away With Me, Girl to state exactly who I am, and that is someone fiercely on the side of throwing away the patriarchy and everything that entails.

The Supreme Court just issued a ruling that limits the ability of courts to block unconstitutional actions by the Trump administration, like his executive order that aims to get rid of the 14th Amendment.

We're filing a class-action lawsuit to protect birthright citizenship.

I’m still navigating my relationship with social media—I’ve had more time to engage in these hobbies and how I want to spend my time.

I do sometimes miss automatically receiving and sharing updates from friends and people that I care about or want to learn more about.

Other than reading, I’ve been inspired by my sis and mom to learn more about the plants around me 🌱 In particular, as a bit of a foodie, I’ve been focused on identifying edible plants ☺️

The other day I grabbed some new books! 📚 I just finished The Lotus Shoes and highly recommend it ☺️ (and this marks my 12th finished this book year, so I’ve met my 2025 goal! 🌟)

It’s been a hot minute since I had a gaming laptop—super excited to expand the library of games I can play!

For the first time in a long time, I’m reading an ongoing manga and am all caught up, too! Highly recommend this series 💚

I started learning Lindy Hop dancing a couple of weeks ago, and it’s inspired me to get back into vintage fashion :)

The National Park Service eliminated references to transgender people from its Stonewall National Monument web page, removing the “T” in references to LGBTQ+ on the official site for the Greenwich Village monument, which marks a milestone in the fight for gay rights.
