Was out of #options
I #joined for the #third time
saw a #banquet of men
& dated again
no #casual sex or one night stands
a #saint I ain't
but my morals do stand
I #interrupt this poem to #offer the truth
I slept with most of them

May my friend @sfdirewolf.bsky.social rest in power. I will especially miss texting with her about Star Trek.
We were lucky, all of us, to have Alice and her warmth and enthusiasm.

This kind of crap saddens me:
"The Trump administration plans to slash support for long-term housing programs, marking a wholesale shift in homelessness policy. Critics say that doing so risks sending 170,000 formerly homeless people back onto the streets."

First night of one bed at the inn. Darach, seeing how frightened Nin is, has offered to sleep on the floor by the door while she had the bed. This is slow burn and Darach is patient, he's a 4,000 yo forest god

She wanted the moment to last. To hold herself against him, to kiss each of his #shirt buttons open. To see and touch and taste this man who’d barged into her life so resoundingly. Who guarded himself as forcefully. Who stood with her now, and made her ache to hold him, to please him.

So the Epstein vote isn't the only reason Mike Johnson should fear Rep. Yassamin Ansari. More of this, please.
Rep. Yassamin Ansari has set up a table and this sign outside Speaker Johnson’s office.

They served coffee to men who wanted them silent. They whispered truth where lies ruled.
The Last Table isn’t just a novel—it’s a reckoning. A woman’s 1950s Jim Crow story of courage, grief, and survival.
