40/demifemme/ace; aspiring writer, stream of consciousness poet, shredded by my cards tarot reader, compliments are genuine when given, unapologetically polyamorous, here for my literary greats.

Ohio is quickly reminding me that empathy and intelligence are becoming rare properties, both in the populace and the legislature. *facepalm* Way to cut off the nose to spite the face, guys.

I swear, inspiration has a clock that tells the most ironic time to strike..
Graphic that reads: "The average hourly wage necessary to afford a one-bedroom apartment in the United States is $28.17. The federal minimum wage is currently $7.25." -- National Low Income Housing Coalition
I really appreciate that @pbsnews.org ended the interview with this graphic.
It captures, in the simplest and starkest terms, the brutal arithmetic driving this country's homelessness catastrophe.
so this one hit me with some Feels
Do I give in to the schadenfreudeβ¦
πWhat if we starve the corporate, high-test scum like Musk, Bezos, Zuckerberg and their slobbery minions who fall at their fat little feet?
πWhat if we say, βWeβll set the terms,β if even for a day?
πWhat if we say, βNot without us you donβt.β
πWell ... TODAY IS THE DAY!

Narrowing the range of permitted expressions of gender diminishes the quality of life for literally everyone. Gender is layered, flavorful, expansive β part of the winding process through which a humanβs internal elements manifest on the surface.
To hate this is to hate all people, and yourself.
@moirdryd.bsky.social found you!
Todayβs advice from your Goth Auntie
-Big stretch! Have a snack, take your meds.
-Youβve made it this far. Thatβs worth celebrating.
-Bitey friend has promised to watch any flying reindeer, not try and snack on them.

From (much) farther north, I hear the faint cry
Of plans overset, of confusion wrought nigh.
Among sweet cysers kept chilled, savored rich meadβ
Perhaps I can offer snowy succor
for this yearly deed.
I can offer you Leicester, Romano or Gruyère,
In perhaps a small hope of tempting you there.
I genuinely can hear this in my head. I had one cat who absolutely refused to ride in a carrier and ended up on the back of my motherβs head on one trip to the vet.
Aaaaaah! Grumpy koala plush! I want one, even though I seem to recall the shenanigans that Shep started using themβ¦
But, Shep, the owls LOVE you!!!
The year is on its knees, waiting for the blade of ice. We roast ale. We roast cider. Rough music fills the air. The Bone Horse dances the night #WinterSolstice
I miss Sir Terry Pratchett but his wisdom remains.
I swear, this and The Ewok Adventure felt like hallucinations until I found other people that had seen themβ¦
I mean, I have been giving most of the grass and mushroom based Pokemon the side-eye since finishing a few of her booksβ¦ π
For millennia, Nimrod was the name of a mighty hunter, but 3 generations of people's exposure to cartoon animals using it ironically in *2* stories turns it into a word people use to mean "an unintelligent, easily fooled person."
But do tell us more about your "constitutional/biblical originalism."
Having finished @tkingfisher.comβs What Moves the Dead, Iβm struck with two reactions: a) Easton is a fantastic person and ka deserves several booksβ¦ and b) on Eugenia Potter.. Dammit Ursula! *cackles* #UnhelpfulReviews

@tkingfisher.com, are you writing Co-Star horoscopes now? Having just finished A House with Good Bones, I have to wonder. π
