I'm waiting till there's a release date in sight because these books are WORK and I don't want to lose track of everything again before the end of Alectopause

Also, I need to reread The Locked Tomb series because a reread is almost a necessary part of the reading experience, and that would take time, focus, and probably a notebook tbh.

AAAAAAAND: a certain trilogy ft. hot moms that's being reworked 👀👀👀

I've been wanting to reread "100 Years of Solitude" but haven't been able to unplug for long enough to have the reading experience I want, so that's the top of my list!

So say we all

I'm in Los Angeles visiting my brother and his husband, and being in their home for the first time really solidifies that hot damn, my brother really found someone who's more obsessed with both cats AND Doctor Who than I am??? Which I knew in theory but is WILD to see in its native habitat.

this is fucking beautiful y'all

that's over $10k for emergency cash support for BIPOC trans folks in Portland plus a combined $15k+ to keep ICE-impacted Twin Cities families fed and in their homes

sometimes the world is a really good place, actually

A lighthouse comprised of dark blue, dark blue/green, and lime green shapes is beaming out a light in the same lime green, with three signal lines in the same colors at the end. Wavy shapes in the same dark blue and a softer sea green are under the lighthouse. Text reads "Affirming Behavioral Health" beneath the beam of light.

I work in the field of LGBTQ+ advocacy and healthcare, and my primary work right now is in developing a SUPER cool org providing specialized, affirming mental health services for queer folks in Maine. We're in our soft-launch era, and you can learn more about us here! affirmingbehavioralhealth.org

Avery, a white woman with brown hair in a gray t-shirt, is lying on her side with her head resting on a very unimpressed-looking cat. Catelyn (said cat) has white facial and neck features, and black/brown/gray markings on her nose, head, and body. Avery is smiling widely, and Catelyn is allowing this interaction because this photo was taken about thirty minutes before her dinnertime and she's a lot more tolerant than usual in this window.

Now that I'm back here and connecting with some new folks, quick intro! I'm Avery: she/her | mid-thirties | queer | Maine.

Passions include sci-fi, poetry, sapphic romance, Waffle House, yapping at length, and ALL cats, but particularly my girl Lady Catelyn Stark, pictured below.

More then anyone we’ve all gotta shout out @clairewillett.bsky.social who made this effort essentially a full time job over the last several weeks. She had lots of help! But none of this could have happened without her. Claire you are incredible!!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

not me crying on a bus at 6 AM 🥺

Hey so just fyi, if you're abandoning trans rights you're abandoning all civil rights

At that point what the fuck is the point of the democracy you're willing to sacrifice trans people for

This actually isn't hard at all, quit making it pretend hard because you finally feel scared too

you sure will!

Poem in the Shape of the Poet Beating Henry Kissinger to Death with Their Bare Hands by Felix

Last night we helped raise over $15k for Minnesota and Portland, and we did it just by goofing off. I woke up feeling a little less hopeless than usual. Feels good to just help to help, but especially just by having fun and talking about silly stuff. Let's do it more!

I know we just met tonight (sort of!), but if this is the kind of problematic content you share on a regular basis I might have to unfollow 😭😭😭

HOLY SHIT Y'ALL

we raised over $15,000 for BIPOC trans folks in Portland and mutual aid / rent assistance in Twin Cities, and I venture to say that all four hours of this telethon are absolute bangers. the whole thing is available to rewatch here and you can still donate for the next 24 hours!

It's not live anymore, but the whole thing is still there to watch!!!

You can make a donation to any or all of these three organizations between 8:30 pm EST tonight (Tuesday) and midnight EST tomorrow night in order to be counted! Just send us your donation receipt with the total attached and our intrepid volunteers will get you counted.

THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Crying thinking about the lives you have all impacted tonight. Thank you so much for your donations!!!!
