Ravaging Phantom book cover with tropes: LGBTQ+, criminal underworld, struggle with life after military service, escaping the pain of being alive, alien MMC, haunted by what ifs, never got to say goodbye, morally grey protagonist, drinking your feelings

Disaster bisexuals romping their way through space on a revenge quest while failing to communicate like the mature adults they purportedly are cuz feelings are hard & avoiding the truth is easy. It's fun, it's fast, it's found family that you'd die for but they also drive you up the wall.

This longhorn cowfish would like to speak to the manager, please.

An old Korean house with the curved roof with green tiles and red pillars painted with flowers.

#QuietMomentOfTheDay

The groundlings cry in most impatient rage:
'By heaven's light, let them their lips combine!'
While hearts do flutter on each turnéd page,
Till love's sweet culmination doth align.
In science strange and fantasy most bold,
These tales of yearning hearts must needs unfold.

From merchant's pen to tales of passion wrought,
This elder of the thousand-year's last crown
Doth craft such tales of space and magic sought,
Where lovers' hesitation draws a frown.

Here's my bio in iambic pentameter. Just cuz.

Behold! A scribe of most peculiar mind,
In wit most sharp, in loving ways most queer,
Whose patterns of the mind do stand defined
As one who views the world both far and near.

On Ukraine, Europe must step into the void | Virgin

Europe can’t rely on the strength of the transatlantic relationship to help contain Russia’s threat – it must lead from the front and be the true force of support that Ukraine needs. Not just for Ukraine’s sake, but for a free and sovereign Europe.

Doing a heist is hard. Doing a heist when your hacker has to take the time to trash talk the opposition is nearly impossible. My chaos daughter is blazing a trail 🥰

"Start throwing punches or I'm gonna lose all respect for you."

Gods above I miss copywriter feedback sessions.

Angst is the name of the game, slow burn is the genre, disaster bisexual is the player 😏

Why in the world I tagged it as adult content, who knows? It's not. And it's prolly just sausage fingers. Or hunger. HOWEVER, fear not, I will be posting about this more and do better then 😁

Finishing the week with edits sitting at ch 29/45. Again, my afternoon was interrupted by a string of events that just kept cascading, one into another, so closing was a bit chaotic. I'll have to pick up wrestling stubborn tech on Monday cuz now it's time to chill (aka knit & watch Mythic Quest)✌️

Endlessly circulating myths on the internet

I'm SCREAMING into the void because someone just called Binny the sassiest AI in space and said her banter with the crew was their favourite part?? 😭 My chaotic space daughter is winning hearts! 🥰🥰🥰 #scifiromance #slowburnromance #booksky #alienromance

Tank developments: in the last hour like 4 more bb snails have hatched and are now wandering around nom-nom-noming in the buffet I've built for them 👌

'Carmilla' is everything 'Dracula' isn't, except for in the ways 'Carmilla' inspired 'Dracula' | Notes from Starsheep A classic of Gothic horror, this sapphic little book makes up much of the foundation of the vampire genre. Yes, it shows its age, so read with a grain of salt!

If you love gothic horror, have you read 'Carmilla'? The book that came before Dracula.

Yeah, after 19 years married (21 together), we don't sweat the small stuff ❤️

Being indecisive about stuff just makes me cause extra work for myself. Why, self, why?
