A goblin living in the stacks at your local library. Warning: feral, queer, and will bite your face off.
Went to a musical version of Frankenstein- gothic themes of arrogance leading to total devastation feel particularly appropriate at the moment.
Also, per usual, had to dress for the occasion.

Queer joy & love is what I’m holding onto.
Did karaoke at a gay bar last night, & saw gay couples cuddling & dancing when I sang True Colors.
The joy of people hearing their favorite song & singing along at the top of their lungs.
Queer joy & love is an act of revolution.
Be loud. Be proud. 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️

Okay, I’m hoping this will gain some traction on Bluesky *inhales* SALEM PUBLIC LIBRARY IN OREGON IS IN DANGER OF CLOSING. This sets a dangerous precedent for state capital libraries!!
This is a continuation of the saga from last year, when we were saved at the last second by the then-mayor. (1/2)

Starting today, same-sex marriage is officially legalized in Thailand.
It’s the first country in Southeast Asia to recognize marriage equality.

Their faith lets them worship power while they’re offended by mercy. It’s not Christianity they’re practicing.

I just helped a 42 year old man get his first ever library card.
I gave him a sticker & the person he was with took a picture of him with our giant library card (I was in the photo with him holding the other side of the card.)
My heart is full.

What I find works well with fascists is punching them.
After all, it’s as much a part of American tradition as victory red lipstick and apple pie!
Let’s bring it back into style instead of electing them into the highest office. 😘

As the transgender community continues to fight for civil rights in the U.S., one of the most common arguments against progress is that transgender people are a recent phenomenon.
But it’s a fight that’s been happening here for decades and around the world for centuries. ⤵️

Keep raising your voices as loudly as you can.

Keep supporting orgs that are leading the fight.

Happy MLK Day. Celebrate a man whose pinkie alone was worth 1 billion times more than the man stepping into office today.
Here’s hoping you don’t have random conservatives quote MLK at you to shame you into silence today.
Be loud. Take up space.
I love you and am proud of you.

I look up my mentor from my undergrad degree (to see if she can write me a letter of recommendation for a Master’s degree). The 2nd image of her is a photo the school paper took of us for her vampire class 13 years ago (where I’m pretending to be the vampire).
In other words, nothing has changed.

Yeah, I’d love to sit around and read too! That doesn’t happen, though. 😂

Man: “I always check every hatch to make sure they’re not storing Harry Potter in there.”
Woman:“The only fantasy I know is Lord of the Rings.”
Man: “Dude… Lord of the Rings is SO much better than Harry Potter. She stole all her ideas from LOTR. “

Right now is not the time to say ‘rich people had it coming’ in California.
Tens of thousands are without homes right now. Even more are without power. This is an unprecedented disaster. This isn’t just impacting rich people.

People who followed me from FB and expect me to post what I do there, or followed because they think I’m a pretty girl?
Nope. My posts are going to just get more and more unhinged on here until I run off into the woods and become the American enby version of Baba Yaga.
You’ve been warned. 🤷🏼
