Taking an extended social media break! See you all in the spring!

I tried and made it a couple of seasons, but I realized I was checking out whenever Xander was in a scene. Finding out later that he was basically a Whedon stand in, it made sense why I found him unwatchable.

I haven’t checked out Kanopy yet but that sounds perfect for some winter viewing.

Since I’m seriously considering deleting all social media, I wanted to give my very small group of followers the best advice I can:

Get a library card and use Libby and Hoopla if offered. Books, audiobooks, comics, magazines delivered straight to your device of choice. You’re welcome!

Or even the same week! If I have to grocery shop in store, I can’t do it again for a while.

Close up photo of a game card from “Moon” on a green table. On the card is a blue token and two moon rovers. The rovers are facing each other like they are kissing.

Managed to feel well enough to get a game in! Moon is super fun and you can make the rovers kiss 🥰

Rough start to Orcacon, my body decided to flare up so I don’t know when I’ll make it down. But I’ve got my sweet Ahsoka giving me snuggles, so not a terrible morning 🥰🐶

No one is coming to save us. We’ve got to be there for each other.

Please take care of yourself!

With the change in venue, it means MORE vendors in our Merchant Hall! Fun fact - You do not need to have an OrcaCon badge to visit the Merchant Hall.

Check our list of returning and new folks exhibiting in our Merchant Hall - tabletop.events/conventions/...

If you ever find yourself saying "No one who works 40 hours a week deserves (to go homeless, to go hungry, etc)" just deleted the "who works 40 hours a week" part.

Disabled people don't deserve to go hungry. Children don't deserve to go hungry. Seniors and the elderly do not deserve to go hungry.

Your last saved meme is your moral philosophy.

I’m sorry you lost your friend this year. There was no way you could have predicted how you would have handled your grief. I hope you can get some relief soon, there are brighter days ahead 🫂

I’m going to bake something to cheer myself up, cause if it’s going to be a high pain/stress day, at least I can eat some berry cobbler.

I would consider going to a cabin in the woods to escape, but they have fireworks there too!

I’m a complete grinch about new years. Turns out PTSD and living in a neighborhood that celebrates everything with fireworks is a terrible mix! Who knew?!

give me coffee for the things i can change and some gasoline and a match for the things i can’t.

I love bookstores.

I love the library.

I love books.

I love reading.

Hell yeah

I truly wish the way able bodied people think disabled people live was accurate. A permanent vacation for not being able to work? I wish! Getting all of your needs met by the government? I wish! Being able to lay in bed all day and never have pain or worries, dude, I WISH!!

Someone close to me would get visibly upset with me when I wouldn’t turn my brain off and “just enjoy it”. But…I am enjoying it. Discussing flaws of media I love is part of the fun, I don’t enjoy it any less.

No one is an exception to becoming disabled. No one is immune to disability. Your health is not a guarantee. Even when you age, disability is almost inevitable at some point. Advocating for disabled people is advocating for your inevitable future.

As someone who works with people with eating disorders this is an essential PSA for the holidays and all times

Don’t 👏 comment 👏 on 👏 people’s 👏 bodies

No, seriously, DON’T even if you think it is a compliment

“Since I quit church” excuse the grammar 😂

I love Sunday mornings. I get some coffee from a local stand, catch up with my husband, read some romance novels…and I’m reminded of the freedom I have since quitting church 💜

I give my local crow couple peanuts too! Why does this simple act fill us with such joy!

Wrangled by the Alien Rancher by Ursa Dax A sweet alien rancher, a wary human woman, and the mail-order marriage that changes everything…I’...

Sometimes, the best way to kick off the weekend, is to read a little alien smut 👽💗

I love those Kronks!
