So far the two creative projects I’ve worked the most on can be boiled down to the disastrous consequences of a man interfering with a toxic lesbian situationship
Was stuck on fleshing out three characters and then I made two older, toxic lesbians and everything is falling into place. Hell, why not make all three older, toxic lesbians.

The gay heartbreak of seeing the most beautiful woman ever at your job and fearing you’ll never see her again 😔

My favorite part of writing so far has been doing research. Specifically when you find that piece of research that makes an idea click into place.

I was going to start hrt again, but then a trans coworker did THE WORST stewie griffin impression with such disillusioned confidence that only testosterone can give you… and it’s like, why do that to myself

Will starting T actually help me understand the stalk market in animal crossing or will I just want to explain it to women?

Working on a creative project while having a day job is really like clocking into a 5-9 after your 9-5.

New idea: Slow Mornings where I listen to a cassette, drink pour over coffee, and cross stitch in bed while my body acclimates to being awake

Writing a show about my personal experience with abuse is wild because on one hand, my ex has given me plenty of inspiration for this project, and on the other hand, my ex keeps giving me plenty of inspiration for this project

I’ve been so busy lately with finding reasons to live and working on a creative project that I’m super passionate about. It’s so wild how different my life is from, like, a few weeks ago. It’s beautiful, really.

I realized today one of the greatest joys of living alone is that I can have things out on the coffee table without fear of my ex throwing them in my office. I should probably go to therapy.

That this runs in a magazine that houses some of the best English language short stories is obscene
Will reading become obsolete? How A.I. could transform our relationship to the written word.
What’s Happening to Reading?
For many people, A.I. may be bringing the age of traditional text to an end.

Whatever Iran decides to do in response is 100% the fault of Trump and Netanyahu.

Maybe when Americans are at risk yall will finally realize how pointless and destructive war is and stop letting these white supremacists to drag you into global conflict.
