Even without a full-time day job, the daily responsibilities, fascism, and struggles with anxiety/cPTSD/sensory overload are enough to make writing all day impossible.

I've just realized. Banks used to be big imposing high street buildings because it gave people confidence they had money and weren't fly by night. A big elaborate website was the internet equivalent: proving someone had invested £ and was here to stay.

You can't trust that any more.

Yeeeep. I'm expecting that bubble is about to burst based on the shelf weight.

It is getting increasingly harder to browse for new reads in the bookstore because of this.

She only fights nightmares.

By sitting on your chest and purring loudly.

A black and white kitten snuggled in blankets and sleeping so soundly.

What's an afternoon without a kitten sleeping peacefully beside you?

She accepts all hugs, pets, kisses, and other forms of affection.

This morning I still have a very cuddly kitten. It's the peace I've been waiting for.

Every time I tried to boop, she pushed into it to get more petting.

You should. She's adorable.

She says, "pet me."

She is so cuddly!!!!

This is what I want from a cat.

We like musical names.

A black and white cat curled up and looking like the happiest kitty in the whole world!

The wait is over. I finally have a kitty again!! I'm so happy to welcome K-Pop to her forever home.

A cat I wanted to adopt passed away today. He was an adorable long hair who was snuggly and wonderful. I'm sorry we didn't get to be best buds, but I will be welcoming his sister into my home later this week. Emotions are complicated.

Wow, this is rude.

I don't know what to tell you. You can't sit at a piano for the first time ever and play a sonata. You can't pick up a tennis racket for the first time and serve a 110MPH Ace.

You have to fuck up.

You have to be able to handle failing.

You have to love it enough to not get it right and keep on.

That is mildly disturbing.

For clarity on what my life has been like the last 4 months, I just finished wrapping Christmas gifts.

I am always here for superheroes building boats.

I imagine lots of folks aren't on the look out for Wonder Man, but gosh, that was an enjoyable 4 hours. Fun look at a different corner of the MCU and focused on friendship. 👍

WTF

Today we celebrate... finishing antibiotics and removing a picc line! (My mom, but now my afternoons will be much freer, so celebrating that, too.)

Reedpop, a company tied to multi-million dollar ICE contracts produces NYCC, Emerald City Comic Con, PAX East, PAX unplugged and more

Fascism has no place in the game community and I won't be attending or supporting any of these cons unless they sever ties with Reedpop

I mean, there is a specific gift to get, but I'll pass along the suggestion.

I have been assigned to pick up a Valentine's present for my nephew's girlfriend. This is hilarious. 😂

I laughed. So much.

I promise we're very good at being deranged. Also Hudson and Connor are the biggest PR tour menaces.
