These things happen.

Short stories from a tiny girl.

I might not be active here, for a while, because of upcoming events.

The Internet seems to be full of lonely men, which is a shame. Loneliness is a terrible thing and I completely understand why they'd want to get away from it. So telling what I'm about to say seems only fair to them, and to me, because awkwardness is not fun

I have a BF and am engaged to be married

Now I'm feeling the urge to create a main course that looks like a cake, and a cake that looks like it's a steak.

Then serve them to my family in that order. Naturally, no beef would be involved. I'd have to assure them of that.
I can’t tell what’s real anymore. Like every picture seems like AI.

i have the urge to cut into everything just to see if it’s steak or cake or fake.

I find myself bemused, if that is the right word. If one looks my bio and top post, one quickly finds out that I'm female and am engaged to be married. Yet I keep getting followed by women with porn accounts.

I'm not going to slut or kink shame. If somebody is that comfortable posting naked pictures of herself, I'm not to question that. She's an adult, I'm an adult, everybody involved is consenting and it's all good.

But is something making them think I'm looking for photos of naked women?

If we're just looking at people who do soft core or erotic shots, and want to know more about math or read a few stories, that's cool. Maybe I'm reading too much into this.

But I'd hate to think that there was an assumption that all Feminists had to be Lesbians floating around.

If so, that's a bad assumption and it's going to lead to awkward situations. Being a feminist just means that I expect to be taken seriously as an adult. Being a radical feminist means that I'm not going to be patient with those who disappoint me in this matter.

It has nothing to with hating men, or wanting to avoid them. Neither does being a Lesbian, for that matter, but if I can get somebody to abandon one absurdly off-base stereotype, today, I'll count that as a win.

One takes one's victories where one can.

These berry pastry squares feature classic pâte feuilletée, almond frangipane, and fresh fruit. Inspired by French patisserie, they echo centuries-old traditions of fruit-filled laminated pastries. #TheOutpost #Cooking #Cooksky #Foodsky #Baking #Bakesky #Recipe

"especially Electrical Engineering"

Yes, yes, that should read "Electrical and Materials Engineering," but the two do overlap. Ever hear of Solid State Engineering? Integrated Circuitry?

Also, the character limit does, sometimes, force me to leave things out of my bleets.

@microbitch.bsky.social is where I will be posting about Mathematics and Science (mostly Physics). As you've probably gathered, I have some interest in the earth sciences and in Astronomy as areas of application, as well as in Engineering (especially Electrical Engineering).

I've separated my fiction writing and cooking from my non-fiction writing. This seemed sensible, perhaps even necessary, given the character limits on bleets and the confusion that can arise because of them.

I don't want some kid reading a story I wrote, and then breathlessly telling some other kid about the recent breakthrough some scientist he never heard of had just had in FTL travel, because a divider between an essay and a story was lost to a glitch.

There's a great deal of scientific misinformation and nonsensical conspiracy theorizing in circulation, already. I don't want to add to the supply, and as long as I openly acknowledge my alt, is there really a rational objection somebody could raise to the fact that I have one?

@sighing-sadly.bsky.social is my fiction writing and cooking account. I might put some other creative efforts in there.

It is where I go to fool around, a little. Yes, with my clothes on, thank you very much. It's not going to be that kind of account.

The fact that my husband-to-be is an electrical engineer isn't completely a coincidence. While obviously our theses have to be individual efforts, for ethical reasons, we've often collaborated on extracurricular projects, for as long as we've know each other.

Which has been a while.

I also have academic interests outside of the natural sciences and Mathematics, and will be posting about those on @microbitch.bsky.social, as well.

There might be a case to be made for subdividing some of these some more, as, for example, cooking and fiction writing seldom have much to do with each other, but how many accounts is enough?
