Now this pass is off to my awesome agent, @staceykondla.bsky.social (sorry in advance, Stacey!) and Iโ€™m going to jump into the next project while we figure out where to go from here. But first, I nap.

That said, these edits are far from perfect. I have a lot of work to do still but Iโ€™m really, really excited that writing is actually back and my brain hasnโ€™t forgotten how to do this after all.

Well, I guess oligarchs and fascists taking over the country are one way to get back into writing and actually get shit done. These edits took me an embarrassingly long time because apparently burnout works this way and even I couldnโ€™t brute willpower myself through that one.

And if youโ€™re in Utah and need help with your name and gender marker, please let me know and Iโ€™ll help you get that done.

I feel like Iโ€™m ten years old and stuck in my Nazi nightmares again. My therapist would be proud of me for doing some intense EMDR work, except i have a pretty sustained track record of being unable to come back out of EMDR and spoilers, weโ€™re right there, right now.
So, anyway, how you all doing?

Iโ€™m not okay today. I donโ€™t think any trans person or any immigrant is. It feels like everything I grew up in Germany with the assurance of โ€œnever againโ€ is crumbling around me. But Iโ€™ve refuse to crumble. Because weโ€™re still here and weโ€™ll always be here and weโ€™ll watch out for each other.

I was thinking the exact same thing. While I didnโ€™t really use it before, now it feels very โ€œif you are using this, better be grateful to, and therefore support, Trumpโ€ and that feels really gross.

Hi, Iโ€™m here now. In the light ofโ€ฆeverything, itโ€™s more important than ever to stay connected, so, say hi, drop me a follow, and letโ€™s make sure weโ€™re all getting through this.
