I didn’t expect that kind of destruction of service within cities. I don’t know why!

There's a Trans Rights Readathon??

Well, I'm pretty privileged and don't need to make everything about me, but, uh, if you just happen to be looking for a nonbinary author of middle grade novels, I do just happen to fit that bill!

It often feels like people forget that about me.

I wanted to check ‘top 20’ designation before I shared. Not confident BUT quibbling is nowhere near as important as facts on the ground. We also had devastating tornadoes & record-breaking hail this week, on top of bad drought.

We so desperately need strong emergency response systems…

I make salads using what I think of as components. I like black lentils cooked with a bay leaf, lightly seasoned with salt and pepper and dressed with olive oil. Today I shaved some rind from a lemon and sliced it thinly. OMG the POP of flavor. Adding this in perpetuity.

We saw massive cargo ships going through the Panama Canal last year and I have no clue how to translate that into anything meaningful.

Basically we are all like toddlers being asked to count to 100, but after 10 it kind of all goes to hell.

I cannot WAIT for the clusterfuck that is going to happen in Seattle when the games are happening here. And by “wait” I mean I live in fear.

I understand the concern on the doctors’ side because their tools aren’t great. We need more compassion and better treatments all around. The utter dismissal of individual pain as a moral failing has got to go away. I’m so sorry.

I got really fascinated with them when this shit surfaced a few years ago and yeah, they are all terrible. Going back DECADES.

I hate pain scales. They are useless. Like the 0-10 or whatever. Functional pain scales are better for me. Am I going to vomit or pass out?

I tried to get pain meds for a drug I knew would make me feel awful. They told me Advil/tylenol would be enough. IT WAS NOT. Sympathies.
