November 2025 reading wrap-up! Loving #thestorygraph and all the extra stats it gives me. Add me if you're on there! Favorites reads of the month are: Platform Decay (I adooooore Muderbot) and Lunar Boy (such a sweet and perfect MG graphic novel).

Statue of Liberty with a tattoo that says “America has no king”

America has no King.

At OPM, Musk’s staffers won’t leave—they work around the clock and have even installed sofa beds in the office. Our access to data systems has been restricted, raising serious concerns about cybersecurity and a complete lack of oversight. We are keeping our heads down and documenting everything.

There is so much fucked up here. And in general. And everything.

It’s only Week One. WEEK ONE. Jfc.

#interviewwiththevampire tv show in a nutshell

Brilliant.

Weird that we have to say this, but the government doesn’t get to decide what gender a person is.

Today is about avoiding reality as much as I can.

It's release day for Devour the Rich! Snatch up this anthology for anyone who wants to #EatTheRich and anyone who had a #badboss as the anthology covers both. I'm so happy to be included in this anthology by this awesome press.

Fun game night with friends! Even if the monster defeated us in #Horrified.

Added to be never ending TBR pile. Loooooove the premise of this!

So good! Ticked all my boxes. 5/5. The music choices were ✨✨✨

About 30 minutes into The Front Room and LOVING it. Went in blind. The true horror is having no boundaries with rotten Bible thumping family members. Started watching because Brandy stars in it and now here to stay until the end.

So true.

The stories flew around the town like sea foam on the shore. She had no proof, but she knew her best friend, Rhona, was responsible for them. Trying to drown as many people as possible until Ellie was returned to the sea where she belonged.

New song #hyperfixation! Well, technically, not NEW to me but fixated anyway. The whole album is great but “Arms of the Ocean” is my current on repeat song. Helps that I just wrote a #Siren short story.

It’s release day for Apostate: Stories of Deconversion! I am fully biased since my essay is in here but all these stories are wonderful. Get this book if you’re interested in why people leave Christianity or just want some great essays.

Watched The Bride of Frankenstein for the first time last night. I wish the Bride had more screen time. The movie was stunning and her performance, though short, was top notch. It’s a classic for a reason and the queer allegory is E V E R Y T H I N G.

if you made art this year, you did well. a sketch, even if it was scrapped ; a poem, even if it was deleted — mattered. you put thought to paper, you engaged with the creative alchemy of turning feeling to something tangible. doesn't matter if you weren't productive "enough." or good "enough."

Current musical fixation is Apologize by Mexican rock band The Warning. I’ve listen to it so much this week it’s already on my On Repeat playlist. The whole Keep Me Fed album is awesome.

It’s one of my favorite days of the year: Spotify Wrapped!

THIS IS WAS SO GOOD
And exactly what I needed to read this morning

Time for my Black Friday tradition since I first watched this film a few years ago. As a former retail worker and slasher lover this ticks all my boxes. I liked it so much I scooped up a used physical copy at my local place. Time for some #Slaxx. #killerjeans #slasher #horrormovieaddict

Yeee thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed it. 💜💜
