i present to you, a beauty queen

just out here living the meme (but it’s the “this is fine” on fire dog one)

ok here’s that thing i was telling you about. it took a long time, but i have an angelic tattoo artist who made it fun, and i met a dead bat with googly eyes who is now my boyfriend at the shop. first time in my life i’m excited to wear sleeveless shirts in summer. tattoos against body dysmorphia 🖤

my 6 year old autistic son got his own library card tonight. this is the design he picked. i fought back tears, because so many are losing their freedoms right now, and he has no idea. instead i smiled and told him he’ll always have the freedom to read with me as his mommy. he told me he was happy 🥲

just your everyday 41 year old mom and her emotional support mothman plushie working from bed/googling emigration countries while the world implodes 👋

my library hold of this authors new book came in early (a christmas miracle!) - so i am moving this up in my rotation because i, for some reason, have to read the entirety of an authors previous work before i can read a new release which i find an adorable symptom of my ocd 😂

i feel like giving this a thousand hashtags based on the content would be really funny, but i’m sick and no brain worky

today is my bbs 6th birthday. regardless of how emotional that makes me on just a mom level, it makes me feel even fucking sadder about the fact that he’s turning six (and seven, eight, and nine) in a world that sees him, and all people with disabilities, as less than. that people can blame blantant

ouch

currently number 5 in line at my local library here in olympia, and there are only 3 copies on order 😭 may turn into a release day bookstore run bc i’m way too excited

currently reading this #thegodofthewoods and it’s beautifully written but i’m having A TIME staying interested 135 pages in and i have no idea why, so am blaming the shitshow of yesterday at stealing my ability to concentrate on anything besides said shitshow
